Pelican Voyager iPad Air Case Review



pelicanFor years I have hauled my electronics gear all over the planet in Pelican shipping cases. They are the gold standard when you want your gear to get from point a to b in one piece. When I was in the Navy they shipped stuff by the truckload in pelican cases.

Now Pelican is taking the same shipping case technology and down sizing it to mobile device cases that can protect your phone and tablets. Over the past two weeks I have had my iPad Air 2 encased in a Pelican Voyager iPad Air Case, and I can tell you that I have no doubt that my device is as protected as it can be.

The case comes with soft inner shell to nestle your iPad in, with a rugged yet pliable exterior that protects the device edges and sides from impacts. The screen is slight recessed to protect the glass as well. The kickstand on the back of the case allows you to prop the device up for easy viewing.

The case has been designed, and tested to handle mil spec drops, shock absorption and deflect energy from impacts into the case and not the device. While the case is a little thicker than some plastic cases, this case was designed for folks that need an extra layer of protection yet is stylish enough that it would be out of place in a office environment. The buttons on your iPad are easy to manage  through the inner pliable layer, and their is a non obstructing camera port.

The case comes with a lifetime guarantee, you break it they will replace the case. Retailing for around $80.00 with various retailers you cannot go wrong after all it’s made by the folks who set the gold standard in shipping cases and now mobile device cases.
