RatingDescription
N/A
3.5Functionality
The device doesn’t angle low enough for comfortable typing, but the stand design will give you an array of options for browsing and viewing. The sleep/wake magnet works as it should, and the rear-shell design provides clear access to all of your device’s features/functions.
4.0Protection
It’s not as robust as some other Wardmaster cases, but still a reliable protector against everyday wear and tear. The TDS technology material and microfiber cloth interior combine to prevent your device from being bruised, dented or scratched.
4.5Quality
The elastic cover strap and Velcro mechanism for stand support may become less effective with age, and separate of the black design, all other colors are prone to dirt, fingerprint smudges and marking. This case is comfortable to grip and solidly constructed to meet Wardmaster’s standards and reputation for delivering great quality.
4.0Value
Although priced on average at $45, the “Zen Case” is a good value for the function, protection and quality that you well receive in return for this mid-range cost.
4.0Overall: Good

Wardmaster is the Zen-master of creating durable case solutions that are designed to function just as well as they are meant to protect. The “Zen Case” is another great example of the kind of multi-purpose design you can expect to receive from this trusted brand.
