Exact CPA-IP0073

iPad Case  7.5/10


Exact CPA-IP0073
A lightweight, clear protective case, this Exact snap-on case lets you carry around your iPad 2 in a pocket or bag without worrying about scratches. The heavy-duty plastic seems strong but appropriately flexible. You can still access the ports and buttons easily. The edges are fairly smooth and comfortable to grip. We would have liked some texture to make the case less slippery, but we appreciated how snugly it held the iPad 2. And because it’s transparent, you can still see the shiny back with the Apple logo, which some people miss when they use a thick leather case. For $4.95, it serves its intended purpose well.
