CCase improves on its Feather Folio with this sister product, the Smart Cover compatible ProShell tablet protector . The carrying handle here is simply outstanding, and the sheer fit of this one locks down the Apple iPad 2 or iPad 3/4 tablet with notable precision.

Editor's Rating 

An example of how the smallest touches can make the biggest differences in tablet cases: Upon unboxing the CCase ProShell back protector, the observant user will notice the cutout notch midway down the right side. This little bonus helps improve the grippability of the encased iPad immeasurably - Who would’ve guessed?

Released alongside CCase’s Feather Folio, the ProShell proves superior in most areas while providing essentially the same design as the surprisingly low-functionality Feather. The Feather’s carrying handle (an “extra” that is next-to-useless for most hands) has been upgraded tenfold for the ProShell. The ProShell’s handle is adjustable, firmly ensconced within the plastic backer and, thankfully, big enough for anyone to hold.

Regarding that backer: Sadly, the ProShell sports the same thin, short-term-use-only plastic back protector that really makes the only slight disadvantage in this case. This isn’t a problem should the user choose to insert the iPad one time only and leave it, but the ProShell just simply isn’t designed to be switched out often.

Finally, like all good products for the Apple iPad, the ProShell is a Smart Cover compatible case and this hinged accessory fits perfectly with protector and tablet to create one single piece with extra protection for the device.

Pros

• Adjustable, padded carrying handle
• Design directs speaker sound toward user
• Very lightweight

Overall: GOOD

CCase delivers on the expected in the ProShell iPad back protector and throws in that excellent carrying handle. This special feature alone makes the ProShell a best case scenario for the oft-toted iPad.
