With a fiberglass internal structure, dual-injected PC\/TPU shell and anti-rip external synthetic leather, the Muse can withstand drops from five feet. But what really sets this cover apart from the rest is the magnetic kickstand that adjusts to eight separate, secure angles. This creates the perfect angle for any situation, be it a table, couch or bed.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pros:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Other sizes available for different makes and generations<\/li>\n<li>Available in four colors<\/li>\n<li>Anti-slide cover prevents battery drain<\/li>\n<li>Magnetized kickstand secures iPad to refrigerator or other metal surfaces<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Cons:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Volume and power buttons difficult to press<\/li>\n<li>Home button must stay on right side<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Yekbee iPad Keyboard Case<\/h2>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/iPad-Keyboard-Case-10-2-2019\/dp\/B07YY13C9V\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"><div class=\"amazon-card\"><div class=\"product-image\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/iPad-Keyboard-Case-10-2-2019\/dp\/B07YY13C9V\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"><img title='' alt='' src='https:\/\/images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com\/images\/I\/51pPXMLaVZL.jpg' \/><\/a><\/div><div class=\"product-details\"><h3 class=\"product-title\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/iPad-Keyboard-Case-10-2-2019\/dp\/B07YY13C9V\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">The Key To A Better iPad Cover<\/a><\/h3><div class=\"product-summary\">As the bestselling iPad cover in 2019, Yekbee offers both superior protection and features in its 10.2 case.<\/div><\/div><div class='product-award'><div>Best Features<\/div><\/div><p class=\"find-in-btn-wrap\"><a class=\"find-in-btn btn-amazon product-amazon\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/iPad-Keyboard-Case-10-2-2019\/dp\/B07YY13C9V\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Find on Amazon<\/a><\/p><\/div><\/a>\n<p>For the gamer who prefers a peripheral keyboard with their iPad, the Yekbee is the clear choice. The attached keyboard is quiet, spacious and comes in ten different backlit colors. Other features include a screen cover that rotates 360 degrees, an auto sleep &amp; wake feature that preserves battery life and compatibility with multiple iPad generations. Combine this with a durable, polycarbonate shell with reinforced aluminum hinges and impact-resistant corners, and you\u2019ve got a cover that\u2019s hard to beat (see what we did there?).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pros:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Available in six colors<\/li>\n<li>Free lifetime tech support &amp; 12-month warranty<\/li>\n<li>Infinite viewing angles across 180 degrees<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Cons:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Speaker cutouts can muffle sound<\/li>\n<li>Pencil holder stretches out quickly<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Urban Armor Gear Folio<\/h2>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Metropolis-Feather-Light-Rugged-Military-Tested\/dp\/B0785Q6R54\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"><div class=\"amazon-card\"><div class=\"product-image\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Metropolis-Feather-Light-Rugged-Military-Tested\/dp\/B0785Q6R54\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"><img title='' alt='' src='https:\/\/images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com\/images\/I\/51-yerNUDxL.jpg' \/><\/a><\/div><div class=\"product-details\"><h3 class=\"product-title\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Metropolis-Feather-Light-Rugged-Military-Tested\/dp\/B0785Q6R54\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Best Case Scenario<\/a><\/h3><div class=\"product-summary\">With military-grade durability and superior portability, the UAG Folio is, hands-down, the best in its class.<\/div><\/div><div class='product-award'><div>Best Hand-Held<\/div><\/div><p class=\"find-in-btn-wrap\"><a class=\"find-in-btn btn-amazon product-amazon\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Metropolis-Feather-Light-Rugged-Military-Tested\/dp\/B0785Q6R54\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Find on Amazon<\/a><\/p><\/div><\/a>\n<p>When we started our research, we knew we wanted to include at least one hand-held iPad cover. Many gamers prefer this orientation, and it\u2019s a must for field professionals who need a way to keep their tablet off their work surface. In this category, nothing beats the UAG Folio. The 360-degree rotating hand strap provides a tight grip against the water-resistant case, which also conforms to military drop test standards (810G 516.6). Yes, it\u2019s slightly more expensive than its competition, but it\u2019s worth every penny.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pros:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Oversized tactile buttons<\/li>\n<li>Available with a kickstand and shoulder strap<\/li>\n<li>Light composite construction<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Cons:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Not compatible with iPad Air 2<\/li>\n<li>Folio mode collapses easily<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Spigen Tough Armor Tech<\/h2>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Spigen-Tough-Custom-Fit-Tempered-Designed\/dp\/B07DHXZXC4\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"><div class=\"amazon-card\"><div class=\"product-image\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Spigen-Tough-Custom-Fit-Tempered-Designed\/dp\/B07DHXZXC4\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"><img title='' alt='' src='https:\/\/images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com\/images\/I\/51-xXaFYQqL.jpg' \/><\/a><\/div><div class=\"product-details\"><h3 class=\"product-title\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Spigen-Tough-Custom-Fit-Tempered-Designed\/dp\/B07DHXZXC4\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">He Ain\u2019t Heavy, He\u2019s My Cover<\/a><\/h3><div class=\"product-summary\">For gamers on a budget looking for a workhorse iPad cover, the Spigen Tough Armor Tech delivers<\/div><\/div><div class='product-award'><div>Best Utility<\/div><\/div><p class=\"find-in-btn-wrap\"><a class=\"find-in-btn btn-amazon product-amazon\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Spigen-Tough-Custom-Fit-Tempered-Designed\/dp\/B07DHXZXC4\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Find on Amazon<\/a><\/p><\/div><\/a>\n<p>Spigen introduced the first full-cover case for the iPad 9.7 with the Tough Armor Tech. The clumsiest amongst us (count me in) who are prone to cracking or scratching their iPad&#8217;s screen will love the custom-sized, tempered glass screen protector, which is included with the cover. Precision cutouts and buttons provide quick access to your iPads features, and the dual-stability kickstand adds a folio feature to the unit. It\u2019s easy to assemble, and most gamers find this cover to be one of the best-balanced.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pros:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Certified drop resistance<\/li>\n<li>Two-position kickstand<\/li>\n<li>360-degree protection coverage<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Cons:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Not compatible with iPad Pro 9.7 or other iPad models<\/li>\n<li>Stylus may not work on glass screen protector<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>MobileDemand iPad Pro<\/h2>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/MobileDemand-LC-Most-Rugged-iPad\/dp\/B07FDPXR5G\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"><div class=\"amazon-card\"><div class=\"product-image\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/MobileDemand-LC-Most-Rugged-iPad\/dp\/B07FDPXR5G\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"><img title='' alt='' src='https:\/\/images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com\/images\/I\/41jr-9IbZeL.jpg' \/><\/a><\/div><div class=\"product-details\"><h3 class=\"product-title\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/MobileDemand-LC-Most-Rugged-iPad\/dp\/B07FDPXR5G\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Takes A Licking And Keeps On Ticking<\/a><\/h3><div class=\"product-summary\">Perhaps the most rugged and durable iPad cover we found, the MobileDemand is perfect for the klutziest of gamers.<\/div><\/div><div class='product-award'><div>Best Protection<\/div><\/div><p class=\"find-in-btn-wrap\"><a class=\"find-in-btn btn-amazon product-amazon\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/MobileDemand-LC-Most-Rugged-iPad\/dp\/B07FDPXR5G\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Find on Amazon<\/a><\/p><\/div><\/a>\n<p>If you\u2019re that eccentric gamer who likes gaming in odd places, like, perhaps on the top of a ladder, then the MobileDemand iPad Pro is for you. Drop tested multiple times from an astounding ten feet, this cover provides the ultimate in protection, and with some cool features to boot. The included snap mount plate provides easy mounting to walls and desks, and the screw inserts allow attachment of your favorite add-ons, such as MSRs, 3D cameras and POS Pin Pads.

Furthermore, it&#8217;s possible that an iPad cover could end up trapping moisture inside of it, potentially exposing the iPad&#8217;s internals to water damage if you&#8217;re not careful. Of course, that&#8217;s only something you need to worry about if you&#8217;ve spilled liquid on your device. If you&#8217;re sure you need true, 100% waterproofing, make sure you include it in your research.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Are most iPad covers fire resistant?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Not really. Most of the iPad covers in our research are constructed from various grades of plastic, rubber and composite materials. Fireproof and fire-resistant iPad covers can be found in the marketplace, but those are specialty items you\u2019ll need to look for specifically.<\/p>\n<p><strong>As a gamer, should I wait for Apple to announce iPad mouse support before buying an iPad cover?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Certainly not. Your iPad represents a substantial investment. It only makes sense to spend an additional 5% to 10% to protect that investment. True, some covers mess with the sleek aesthetic of the iPad, and it&#8217;s often annoying to have to dish out money to buy one; however, the right iPad cover can not only make your iPad look better and feel more comfortable in your hand, but it could enhance your gaming experience, too.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Zugu Muse Since 2010, 25-year-old inventor and entrepreneur Tim Angel has been on a quest to create the perfect iPad cover, and the Zugu Muse may well be it.
