The folks at Cooper Cases are apparently quite proud of this tablet folio case: After all, it’s described as both “Infinite” and “Universal” in its lofty name.

DryCASE Universal Waterproof Tablet Case
Although you certainly could, this
Pros
- Universal fit for any tablet up to 8" x 10.5"
- Vacuum-sealed for complete waterproof protection
- Included armband and lanyard strap
Cons
- Creases/wrinkles can form when vacuum-sealing
- Strong fingers required for the locking-clips
Overview
Before having fun with your device outdoors, you’ll enjoy some fun shrink-wrapping it. To do so, you need to first open the DryCASE by twisting the clasps outward (I warn you this is not the easiest action) and then slide the device inside. Then, you fit the pump to the nozzle on the side, and simply squeeze until all the air is removed, secure the safety cap and, voila! Your device is now vacuum-sealed!

The flexible plastic design allows you to freely touch your device's screen and buttons, as well as snap clear photographs. It also features a 3-way headphone jack for using headphones or microphone, and as long as a little air is left inside, you can hear and talk through the case. The DryCase includes a lanyard for toting the bag over the shoulder , or wrapping around your wrists for a more secure hold to prevent a gust of wind from tossing your device overboard.
If by some freak chance it does happen, you will still have a chance to save your device as it will remain completely waterproof in depths of up to 100 feet for 1 hour. But such potential disasters may all be avoided by attaching the armband, which is included to make the case more buoyant. DryCASE also offers the "Sport-Belt" ($20), a neoprene waistband for more active device-use.

|---|---|
| N/A | Design: As a case style that is clearly not intended for aesthetic purposes, we don't factor this category into scoring. |
| 4.0 | Functionality Audio-jack and touch screen sensitivity are the only things maintained while the tablet is encased. The locking clips are troublesome for even the strongest and nimblest of fingers. Extra points for the included armband and lanyard strap that offer increased grip and buoyancy. |
| 3.5 | Protection The tablet probably won't survive a shark attack or boating accident, but will surely be safe from dust, scratches, water, sand and seagull droppings. |
| 4.5 | Quality It clearly may not look like much at first, but once in the hands it feels sturdy and well made. Although I doubt you will ever need to, DryCASE is backed by a one-year replacement warranty. |
| 4.5 | Value At $59.95, the DryCase is average in terms of cost, but it's still a great value for enhancing leisure time with the tablet. |
| 4.1 | Overall: Good Though your tablet may not appreciate having to now work weekends too, the DryCASE is clearly a best case scenario for those who seek the best in waterproof protection for holiday and leisure time activities. |

"Water stays outside"
I lost my original iPad to the depths of my favorite fishing lake. You know, the usual mistake of trying to combine business with pleasure: I was coming up with a nasty e-mail to my suppliers, while fishing.
So, when updating to the iPad 2 model, I immediately wondered what can I do to prevent such a disaster in the future. And this waterproof case came out during my search. What attracted me the most was the promise of a complete protection via the vacuum seal.
I also noticed the option to attach the neck band, which is perfect in case you don’t want to part with your device even for a second. The fifty-something price tag was a bit stiff, but safety comes first.
As soon as the case arrived I ran to the bathroom to test it. All what’s promised has been delivered – it does completely seal my iPad 2 and you can freely use the touchscreen even if the case is wet, although that takes some getting used to.
I’d recommend this baby to everyone out there, looking to shield their tablets from water.
