iChair are behind the matte stand cases for the iPhone 4, iPad and iPod Touch and we reviewed their cases a while back. iChair now seeks help in funding thru Kickstarter to create new cases for the iPad 2 and iPod Touch 4G. Pledging $40 will get you an iChair case for the iPad 2 and $35 will get you the iPod Touch 4G version, of course as long as iChair's Kickstarter project will be fully funded in less than a month from now.
The LifeProof iPhone 4 case is the thinnest proof-everything case you can get right now. Like Griffin's Survivor case, the LifeProof case meets military standards and protects your iPhone 4 against water, dirt, snow and shock. Unlike Griffin's Survivor case, the LifeProof case is actually water-proof and not just water-resistant. This means that with the LifeProof case you can take a shower with your iPhone 4 and even dive underwater up to a depth of 6.6ft (2 meters). This case is very impressive especially because of how thin it is, only adding 1.5mm of "bulk" to your iPhone 4. All of these specs sound really good making the LifeProof case the ultimate iPhone 4 case, at least until we can get our hands on one to review and test out.
The LifeProof iPhone 4 case is now avilable to pre-order for $69.95, most likely in black only. Hit the source link for more.
Case-Mate made their Pop case available for the HTC Inspire 4G, the first case made by Case-Mate for this device with more to come. The Pop case is a hybrid case with co-molded materials of hard plastic and soft rubber for impact protection. The Pop case is available now for $34.99 in blue, pink and white.
The Apple iPad 2 will be released on March 2 but we already have our hands on the iPad 2 cases sent to us from Budgetgadgets in China. I can't say for sure that these silicone cases are spot-on but I have a feeling they do have the correct thickness and form to fit the iPad 2. As you may already know, the iPad 2 will feature a back facing camera as well as a front facing camera for FaceTime. These silicone cases from Budgetgadgets have a few new cutouts made for the iPad 2 including back and front facing cameras, a larger cutout for the speaker and another small cutout at the top for some sort of mini-USB port which I'm sure will not be found on the iPad 2.
WaterField Designs has introduced a slew of protective sleeves for the Samsung Galaxy Tab including their popular Suede Jacket slim sleeve, Tablet Ultimate SleeveCase, Tablet EXO SleeveCase, Tablet Slip Case and the Tablet Travel Case. Prices range from $14 to $49 respectively. You can head on over to WaterField Designs' Samsung Glaxay Tab page for more.
The Survivor is Griffin's toughest case yet and it isn't afraid to look mother nature straight in the eye. The Survivor exceeds military standards and can withstand drops, impacts, wind, rain, vibration, sand and dust. If that's not enough for you, nothing is. The Survivor case is available for both the iPhone 4 (AT&T and Verizon compatible) and iPod Touch 4G in four colors for $49.99 and $39.99 respectively. You can pre-order yours right now but first check out Griffin's little torture test after the break.
