The Targus VuScape (along with the Targus 360) has been one of very few iPad 2 Cases released in time for the initial iPad 2 introduction.  A more simple design, but still offering a unique look to your tablet, this is functional and good looking.

With its robust dark exterior, contrasted beautifully by a sky blue interior it offers great protection from knocks and bumps.  The microfiber lining keeps your display scratch free of course.  You get all the usual cut outs for accessing controls and ports as you would expect with any good quality iPad case.

The design fits well and doesn’t cover the front of the tablet, giving a great stream lined look to the whole thing.  This hard sided cover offers three viewing angles to prop up your tablet (all in landscape mode).

For the price you get a lot of protection, but all in a slim light-weight design that complements the clean lines of the Apple tablet itself.

Targus VuScape Ipad 2 Cover Reviews

So soon after the release of the Targus VuScape iPad 2 cover with stand it might be a surprise to find so many customer reviews already written.  You can view them all by clicking the image at the top of the page.  The overall impression from customers is extremely positive, with an average 4 our of 5 stars.  The key points mentioned so far include:

  • great fit
  • slim, lightweight design,
  • good hard shell protection for the whole device
  • worth the price
  • great access to controls, camera and ports

The look is fabulous with the contrast stitch detail, but this is not a leather iPad case, so look elsewhere if you are after genuine leather.  This means that like most synthetic products it can have a plastic odour when first opened.  Don’t worry though that is gone in no time so you can get on with enjoying your latest Apple gadget.

Targus 360 for iPad 2With its unique (and patent pending) swivel action mechanism that frames the Apple logo you have a unique way to move from portrait to landscape view whilst leaving your tablet safely protected inside its sturdy case with built in stand.

iPad 2 Case - Targus 360The black exterior is smart and solid enough that you get some good protection for the iPad.  There are all the usual cut outs so that everything you need is accessible, and of course, since this is a Targus case those cut outs fit perfectly.

The pale blue microfiber lining offers good scratch protection for the display, but also adds a little bit of contrast and style to the whole thing, as to does the contrast stitching on the outside.  This may be a super practical case with stand but it is also a rather good looking cover in its own right too.

Targus 360 iPad 2 Case Reviews

Well so far of course there aren’t hundreds of reviews of any iPad 2 cases yet.  But the Targus 360 case had a great start, with a 4.5 average star rating out of a possible 5.

Overall the comments focus on the following areas:

  • rich, elegant look
  • great smooth swivel action
  • practical with great protection
  • high quality finish

On the down side there is an elastic strap to hold it closed.  Some customers are concerned about the durability of such a closure.  We can understand that you might wonder how stretchy the elastic might remain. But check out the best sellling Kindle covers with their elastic straps that last for years and we don’t think this should be a concern.  The only other real negative response concerns the smell.  As with many electronics accessories this one is supplied with quite a strong plast

This is an ingenious cover that is likely to become one of the more popular choices for those needing a hard shell cover with built in stand, and ultimate flexibility.

The fact that Targus managed to get the 360 case on store shelves in time for the launch of the 2nd generation iPad has probably helped too.  Whilst many accessories are released for pre-order only when the iPad 2 arrives, the Targus 360 is shipping immediately.

Beautiful, practical and great quality, the Targus 260 Degrees iPad 2 case is most definitely a winner as far as great iPad cases are concerned.

 

Tuff-Luv Bi-Axis iPad Cases

Tuff Luv Bi-Axis iPad Cases – Click for Full Range

For the ultimate flexible leather iPad case you simply have to consider the Tuff Luv range of iPad cases.  We have already had a quick look at their Multi-View iPad Case.  But what if you one goal in life is to stand your tablet up vertically rather than horizontally?  No problem the Bi-Axis case for iPad is just what you need with its various straps it folds around into just about every possible way you could want to stand a tablet up!

Hey even if you don’t want leather they have you covered.  The Bi-Axis case comes in Napa leather (strong, soft and durable) in a range of colors (black, pink, red, brown), patent high gloss leather, faux leather (I must admit I’m not a fan of faux anything but I guess it supplies a need), super georgeous (but a little more pricey) Western Saddle leather hide and a soft suede looking micro-fiber version.

So the range of every conceivable iPad case material is covered, your viewing angles are covered, but is the Bi-Axis any good?  Well there are many pros to this case and a few cons too I’m afraid.  None of them are a surprise though when you look at the cover, indeed they are what makes it great!

Well the pros are great.  It’s affordable, it offers excellent protection for the iPad inside and you have the option to stand the tablet at various angles, and in both portrait and landscape mode.  The quality is good, you get a sound leather product with a decent warranty and some little Eco credentials too, since the company minimise the use of harmful chemicals in their production.

The cons pretty much speak for themselves.  All that padding, protection and standing make this a far from lightweight or slim iPad case.  Also all the straps that allow you to prop the tablet at various angles make for some work.  Yes if you want to quickly turn the iPad from one angle in portrait, to landscape you have a few twists and turns of all those straps to negotiate.

Overall though, if you really will use the full functionality of this Bi-Axis multi view iPad case, the Tuff Luv case cannot be beaten.  Don’t get this though if standing your iPad is something you rarely expect to do or you’ll be adding weight and bulk for no real benefit.  This is a great leather iPad case if you want to use it fully.
