Griffin iPad 2 / 3 / 4 AirStrap Case in Black
The AirStrap’s ingenious hand strap across the back gives you a simple yet striking feature that other cases lack. Also, if you tend to move your hands around a lot while using the iPad 2 or New iPad 3, no problem: Griffin has put thick rubber around the edges to ensure protection from bumps. An invaluable case for readers and great tool for presenters.
Pros
- Made with Griffin brand quality
- Great answer for reading, sharing or presenting
- Excellent protection for edges and back
Cons
- No cut out for volume rocker or sleep/wake
- One hand is always occupied
- Awkward use in portrait mode
Overview
If you use your iPad 2 of New iPad 3 for presentations in the office or jut for reading at home, then Griffin has an invaluable case for you. Fashioned specifically for your iPad, the case has a comfortable and ergonomic, one-size-fits-all handgrip across the back. I tried it out at home and it made even the simplest “Hey, check out this video” so much easier—and it works like a charm with one-handed touch screen technology. The case has a molded thick rubber frame that surrounds the tablet, providing excellent protection around the edges and back. I found that the iPad snaps in place relatively easily and your hand slides in snuggly taking away the risk of dropping the tablet.

Editor's Rating
| Rating | Description |
|---|---|
| 3.5 | Design: Good The smooth black goes excellently with the iPad 2 or New iPad 3 and doesn’t take away from the slim Apple design. Plus, the case has a dimpled pattern on the edges that provides a nice texture to the rubber. |
| 3.0 | Functionality: Okay The case is custom fit to most iPad external ports giving easy access to front and rear camera, headphone jack and nicely hole-punched speaker grill feature. Oddly, volume rocker and sleep/wake button are covered – you must adjust manually in your iPad preferences. Plus, the strap can be a bit awkward to use over long periods of time. |
| 4.0 | Quality: Great The rubberized edges look and feel like top-notch quality and the soft neoprene material across the back is a wise material choice for the palm of your hand. The case has durable stitching and precise cut outs for the external ports. |
| 3.5 | Protection: Good The thick, hard rubber will prevent any scuffing or bumping that may come with extra hand movements. This is not a replacement for a case though—transporting, carrying or storing your iPad with only the AirGrip may be cause some damage because there is no front display cover. |
| 3.5 | Value: Good $40 is a good value for this case, its function and quality but you’ll still be left with a gaping hole in protection for iPad so you will want to invest in yet another case or screen protector. |
| 3.5 | Overall: Good The AirStrap reaches Griffin’s main goal: to give you a sturdy grip and hold on your iPad when it is in use. There are some drawbacks but only if you are looking for an all-in-one case. |
