MobileFunProduct: Speck iGuy Case and Stand for iPad Mini (Chili Pepper Red) from MobileFun.co.uk

Price: £22.97

Age Range: n/a

Manufacturer’s Description: Meet iGuy — the free-standing foam case for iPad mini. Every bit as protective as he is a blast to use, iGuy is the perfect iPad mini accessory for kids and grownups alike. He’s lightweight, easy to hold, and he can stand on his own two feet, even while holding up your iPad mini. He may look like he’s all about fun, but his soft, squishy body disguises tough EVA foam protection. iGuy will help you feel more secure as you hand your iPad mini over to your baby or small child!

MobileFun.co.uk is an online store which sells mobile devices and all the accessories or cases you could ever need to go with them. As well as the iGuy they sell the official apple (and more adult orientated!) iPad Mini Smart Covers, among many others.

Review: Our initial reaction to the iGuy upon opening it was “Wow, this looks fun… and it should do the job, too!”, and it hasn’t disappointed. James got an iPad Mini just before Christmas and is, understandably, rather protective about it… especially as Georgie can easily (and with an air of complete nonchalance) carry it about in one hand as she clambers about the room. We knew we needed something to make it more kid-proof, and the iGuy fits the bill completely.

Manufacturer’s Description: Create a unique cover for your iPhone 4 or iPhone 4S by uploading your own image, selecting from our gallery of official music cases, choosing a unique design from one of our featured artists, oricking an image from your favourite game. Our covers provide great protection for your phone while still allowing you easy access to all the buttons. Our custom printing process delivers the image into the surface of the case providing a tough and durable finish, with no cracking or chipping. Mooskin phone cases are made of durable shatterproof polymers to protect both the iPhone 4 and iPhone 4S, but they are still easy to fit.

Review: When I bought my iPhone 4S last year, I quickly got myself kitted out with a Reveal case from Griffin, which I chose because I was concerned about adding too much bulk to my iPhone. However, I was quickly disappointed as the rubber edging of the case didn’t stand up well to Georgie’s grabbing (or any general use), and seemed to get looser & looser, so the case rapidly gathered dust & debris underneath the clear back which looked awful. The bottom opening to the dock connector was too small – it was a very tight fit with the official cable and I couldn’t use our third party in car charger at all, which was a right pain on long journeys.
