    First Look: Newer Technology NuGuard Silicone Case for the Apple iPad

    By Jeremy HorwitzMay 15, 2021 9:05 am UTC

    Unlike Newer Technology’s other NuGuard iPad cases, the NuGuard Soft Silicone Case ($18) covers almost all of the iPad’s body — except for its screen — here using a variable thickness layer of rubber in your choice of six colors. This budget-priced offering generally feels thinner than other rubber cases we’ve tried for the iPad, but does feature rear grooves for added grip.

    First Look: Newer Technology NuGuard Silicone Case for the Apple iPad

    On May 13, 2010, iLounge published The Complete Guide to iPad Cases and Protection, a multi-page comparison of over 70 different iPad cases and film protectors, sorted by genre. The following details were added to this piece by that comparison article; please click on the link above for additional comparative discussion of similar protective options.

    In very short summary, NuGuard Silicone feels like a cheaper, crappier knock-off of FlexGrip—as if it came from the same plant in China, using an earlier mold. There are two similar indented grips on the back, less precisely tailored holes, including a Dock Connector hole that isn’t even quite right with Apple’s own cables, and a bulging issue. Six colors are the only reason it’s even a little interesting; no screen protection is included.
