Case-Mate Gelli back protector is the perfect way to protect your iPad 2 from slipping onto the floor. The soft gel material gives the case some extra grip while also preventing the back and edges of your tablet from getting scratched up and dinged around. Choose a red case to give a little color spark to monochromatic tablet.

Pros

  • Great cut outs for external features
  • Cool geometric pattern on the back
  • Soft Grip

Cons

  • Single-use function
  • Could be cheaper

Overview

If you suffer from slippery hands or are just a little bit clumsy, the Case-Mate Gelli tablet protector for Apple iPad 2 might just be what you need to keep your tablet off the floor. This form fitting case slips over the back of the tablet, making it ideal for keeping the iPad 2 safeguarded against everyday wear and tear while also giving some extra soft grip. The Gelli case comes in three different colors – blue, black or pink – and a different, funky geometric pattern across the whole design. Each style gives the tablet a different personality. The form fitting shape with custom cut outs goes just a bit over the edge of the iPad 2 to give the tablet a cool, colored outline. Plus, the gel-like material doesn’t feel sticky at all to the touch.

RatingDescription
N/A
3.0Functionality:
The case does its job well but Gelli protector is pretty much a single-use case. It might be able to be combined with a larger case for carrying around or maybe tucked into a folio, but this might be a difficult to do.
4.0Protection:
The protector covers the entire back and edges of your iPad but the front display is wide-open to damage. Even worse, the case does not allow you to use some screen protectors making it more difficult to keep it safe any way.
4.0Quality:
The Gelli case is made from cutting-edge, flexible thermoplastic material. Seems like the case will last for quite a long time and also keep your tablet looking young.
4.5Value:
This back protector comes in at $30.00—okay for the nice design, custom cutouts and long-term use.
3.9Overall: Good

The Gelli back protector by Case-Mate is a colorful case that keeps your iPad 2 in your hand with its extra grip while protecting it from scratches and bumps. Although you can’t use it with a screen protector, it will still give you some fun every time you pick up your tablet.

"Eye-catching design and comfy grip"

on 2012 Aug, 14 by Ben Black
Easy installation, full access to all ports, very comfortable grip, and an intriguing design pattern – this are the thing I like about my new Case-Mate case. And, yes, it does keep the back of the iPad safe.
