The Snap Shield Secure comes in a thin, translucent case which will snap to the back of the iPad 2 (hence the name) for streamlined protection as you can see above, without cordoning off the iPad 2’s design elements. There is also an integrated steel strip that holds the Smart Cover flat against the case whenever it remains open. Touted to feature soft-touch material that feels great in-hand, it also doubles up as added protection against daily wear and tear without adding bulk.
As for the Emerge 024, it boasts of a unique design which has a perforated pattern and comes with colored inserts so that you will be able to mix and match with your Smart Cover. I’d go for the former, really, as it provides a far more solid feel to the whole thing. What about you? [Press Release]
