The HOCO “Exclusively Touching” collection of leather cases are noteworthy for carrying substance and elegance. A fine example in the series is the Ultra Slim folio case for Apple iPad 2. And its made even more appealing by a price that won't necessarily touch an exclusive amount of the user's hard-earned money.

Editor's Rating 

The Ultra Slim case lives up its name, as well as the quality standards that we have come to appreciate from the HOCO brand. This compact folio design consists of a rubberized polycarbonate snap-in shell and a genuine leather fold-over cover. A nice soft velvet lining is featured throughout the interior to provide both sides of the iPad 2 some extra comfort. The case closes secure via an incorporated cover strap and loop-style fastener. This mechanism serves a dual-purpose in converting the cover into a tablet stand feature, which provides one angle each for typing and viewing in landscape format.

Pros

• Scratch- and water-resistant exterior
• Slim, lightweight design
• Durable build

Overall: GOOD

The Ultra Slim is a best case scenario for the financially-strapped iPad 2 users who seek a quality leather folio case with a bit of substance behind it.
