Zaggmate for iPad coming to UK

Zagg are well known for their range of gadget protecting InvisibleShield – a tough, thin film that protects your phones, laptops, iPads and iPods from scratches and scuffs without adding any extra bulk. For most mobile phones and media players, an InvisibleShield is all the protection you’ll need, but for larger devices such as the iPad it may not be enough on its own as the large screen could crack if it’s hit in the right place.

It’s because of this that Zagg have developed the ZAGGmate Case, a really thin aluminium cover that clips onto the front of your iPad, completely protecting the screen from scratches and crush damage. The Zaggmate has been coated to look like the back of your iPad and once fitted looks like you’re carrying around a block of aluminium.

When you want to use your iPad, the ZAGGmate Case doubles up as an adjustable stand – holding your iPad at the perfect angle for typing, showing off your latest photo collection or watching a movie.

The soft lining ensures that your screen is looked after and stays free from marks and scratches, and a cut out on the bottom edge of the ZAGGmate means you can still charge your iPad with the ZAGGmate fitted.

That’s only half the story though. Zagg are also launching a ZAGGmate Case with a built in bluetooth keyboard and that adds less than 7mm to the overall size of your iPad!

The ZAGGmate Keyboard Case is proving to be exceptionally popular over in America, and I’d expect it to do just as well when we receive our first batch in the next few weeks.

The ZAGGmate Keyboard Case fits over the screen of your iPad in exactly the same way as the ZAGGmate Case, and when you’re ready to use it, simply lift your iPad out, clip the stand in place and then prop your iPad up in either landscape or portrait mode.

The keyboard (once paired) connects as soon as its turned on and has a number of shortcut keys built in that allow you to return to the homescreen, launch spotlight, control your music playback and put your iPad to sleep. The battery in the keyboard should last several weeks without needing to be charged, and can be charged using a standard Micro USB charger.

As a cover, the ZAGGmate is great, but the addition of the keyboard makes it invaluable – especially if you spend a lot of time writing emails, documents, tweeting or updating facebook.

MobileFun.co.uk and our sister site GearZap.com will be the first retailers in the UK to get the ZAGGmate and stock is expected towards the end of next week. Stock will be limited initially, so to avoid any disappointment make sure you order yours now. All orders are fulfilled on a first come first served basis and all ZAGGmate cases will be despatched the same day that they arrive.
