We've seen some interesting cases in our ongoing pursuit for perfect iPad protection, but the Incase Convertible Magazine Jacket could be a definite frontrunner. It builds on the Incase Book Jacket by trimming it substantially and adding some crucial features.
The Magazine Jacket is aesthetically similar to Apple's own iPad case, adding to the design with an elastic binding strap and three folding stand options. The problem with the original Book Jacket is that it doesn't adequately secure the iPad, leaving it free to slide around in the case.
Incase has resolved this issue with the Magazine Jacket, as the case now locks the iPad in place to prevent slippage. By comparison, the Apple case uses a small flap to keep the iPad in one spot. It seems minor, but it becomes particularly irritating to push the iPad back into place whenever you need to plug headphones in.
Its three standing options include two viewing angles and one working angle (for typing and such). Additionally, the case doesn't cover any of the the iPad ports or side buttons, so its controllable at all times. The Incase Convertible Magazine Jacket is available now for $50.
