Zeus wore an Aegis, so why not your tablet? After all, the Motorola Xoom may seemingly be the all-mighty ruler of your own personal world. The Aegis by Trident Case is a full-body protective shell for the Motorola Xoom, featuring a rugged-style design and built-in tablet stand for hands-free display.

Editor's Rating 

Though powerful, Zeus never had control over The Fates and Destiny. This may explain why he wore the aegis, a protective shield made of goatskin. Whether or not you believe in mythology and/or fate, you should certainly accept the fact that your Motorola Xoom is destined to encounter mishaps and harmful elements along the way. So why not fit your device with this Aegis by Trident? It’s not made of goatskin (yes, such cases do exist), rather this two-piece design consists of a silicone inner-sleeve and a plastic shell, combining to protect the tablet against shocks, abrasions, dirt, dust, moisture, liquid spills, and most likely, some minor accidental drops. The later may be avoided thanks to anti-slip pads on the back, which have a nice contoured shape for your hand and a soft feel for griping the tablet comfortably and secure. You’ll also appreciate the added screen protector that you can apply for enhancing the case’s overall defense (cleaning/installation kit and instructions included).

Pros

• Anti-slip pads for improved grip

Overall: GREAT
