Just Mobile Encore Aluminum iPad & iPad 2 Stand Review

/

We've seen and reviewed a boat load of stands for the iPad and iPad 2. Some made from typical plastic materials while others use more expensive metals. This time we're taking a look at Just Mobile's Encore stand for the iPad and iPad 2. The Encore boasts a circular base made out of solid aluminum with a hinged arm that is angle adjustable. I haven't had much experience with adjustable stands so this is a much welcomed feature to have the ability to adjust your viewing angle. We'll find how just how well the Encore performs as an adjustable stand for the iPad and iPad 2 in the full review right after the cut!

Sena UltraSlim Leather Sleeve for iPad 2 With Smart Cover Review

/

I'm a big fan of Sena and their leather goods are one of the best around. I got the chance to review Sena's latest leather offerings for the iPad 2, the UltraSlim. A fine leather sleeve that is one of the slimmest I've tried yet. Sena uses very high quality leather in all of their cases and sleeves, the Ultraslim is no exception. Anyone who owns an iPad 2 and uses it in conjunction with a Smart Cover knows its limitations of protection. The UltraSlim isn't here to give you constant maximum protection, but what it does offer is the elegance of non-bulky carrying and storing protection that some of you may be on the lookout for. Be sure to check out the full review right after the jump to see if the UltraSlim is worth your hard earned cash. (see end of post for the updated review).

Acase has been kind enough to send out a few of their new goodies to review. What we've got here is probably the answer for your Smart Cover mashed with first gen iPad Case yearning. We all know Apple's Smart Covers are colorful and magnetically magical, but they lack one important aspect which is back protection. Your iPad 2 is prone to scratches and dents on its beautiful aluminum back if you're using a Smart Cover. This is where Acase's EZ-Carry Ultra Slim folio case for the iPad 2 comes into play. Acase has hit the nail on the head with matching the colors of each Smart Cover almost precisely. I know I and many others have been wanting a bit more protection for their iPad 2 because Apple's Smart Cover really isn't all that good in that respect. So let's give these Smart Cover look-alike protective folio cases the full rundown in the full review right after the jump.
