LifeProof Outs Nuud Waterproof iPad Case, $160 Of Toughness

Did you hear? LfeProof's new waterproof case for the iPad 2 and iPad 3rd Gen called the Nuud, is now available and shipping for $160. LifeProof only makes the most amazing waterproof iPhone case ever made. No big deal really. The Nuud should be just as great as the iPhone version and can keep your iPad protected against some of its worst enemies: water, snow, dirt and impacts - all while meeting military standards for drop and shock protection from up to 4ft (1.2m) and IP-68 rated water proofing down to 6.6ft (2m).

The Nuud, unlike the iPhone version, doesn't use a built-in plastic screen protector to help seal the iPad against water and instead uses LifeProof's nuud screen technology to fully seal itself around the iPad's bezel leaving the touchscreen display naked and fully tactile. The Nuud is made from materials that maintain grip when even when wet without attracting lint, and is designed to allow full button functionality with access to all ports as well as an AR coated lens for the back facing camera, and an enhanced audio pass-thru. LifeProof's Nuud is one of the first and slimmest tough waterproof iPad cases ever to be made. It's currently only available in black with a transparent back side.

Thanks for the tip, Tristan!

Transform Any iPhone, iPad Case Into A Waterproof Case

Protecting your iPhone and iPad from one of the most dangerous elements of all without the bulk is now a reality. And what is you could waterproof virtually any protective case you have in the process? Gooma's Case Marine is less of a case and more of a clear, ultra-thin waterproof touch-thru membrane cover that's made out of polyurethane and acrylic which can stretch to form fit the iPhone and iPad and is then sealed from the back using a watertight seal strip. The Case Marine's durable stretchy membrane is waterproof rated for up to 10m (32.8 feet), and will also protect against scratches and dust. It's so thin at 0.25mm that you can still use a protective case with your iDevice

Gooma's Case Marine is without a doubt the thinnest waterproof case out there that lets you enjoy your iPhone and iPad as if they were unprotected. The downside? You won't be able to use any of the device ports, but you could still be able to make phone calls. The Case Marine for the iPhone 4S and iPhone 4 comes with 10 waterproof seal strips and 2 clear membrane covers for $71. Gooma plans to release the iPad version soon.
