Monster iPad Case Test: Skins and Hard Cases

Incipio 1337

Designed, apparently, for gamers, the 1337 is thicker than your average silicone skin, so it fits the iPad better. On the back, at the corners, are four inch-thick L-shaped grips to better help you hold onto your iPad while flinging angry birds or steering round the racetrack. It didn't help my N.O.V.A performance any, and it's not a case you'd want if you take your iPad out and about, but there's no doubt it makes for a good grip. Comes with a separate screen cover sheet.

Proporta Mizu Shell

Standard semi-rigid translucent skin, the Mizu shell comes in a range of colours. It fits well too, but then so do all the others of its ilk I've reviewed here.
