Hand Strap Cases Make it Easier to Use Tablets

Posted on Apr 29th 2013

The size of the original iPad is great for watching videos and browsing the web, but some people find that it is too large and heavy to hold with one hand, especially after the added bulk of a case. An emerging category of iPad accessories solves this problem. Hand straps allow you to effortlessly hold the iPad with one hand, leaving you free to control the screen with the other hand.

These straps are ideal for environments like healthcare, point-of-sale, retail stores, warehouses, conferences and trade shows, presentations, education, construction, or any situation in which the user needs to be free to roam, iPad in hand.

Beyond simple portability, we realize our customers have more specific needs. The following hand straps are our favorites among our selection for varying reasons:

The New Trent Grabbit Case features a unique rotating hand strap that allows you to quickly switch from portrait to landscape and any orientation in between. Its strap is made of leather, so it is comfortable and professional. While the Grabbit includes an optional rubberized snap-on cover for the front of the iPad, you can also pair it with the Apple Smart Cover or Logitech Ultrathin Keyboard for added protection and functionality.

The Griffin AirStrap Neoprene Case is a good choice when comfort is a top priority. The case is padded and contoured so it’s easy to grip and comfortable. It’s also the lightest hand strap case in our selection, reducing hand and arm fatigue if you’ll be holding the iPad by the strap for extended periods of time.

There is also a ruggedized option with the LifeProof Strap Accessory Pack, which can only be used with the LifeProof Nüüd case. LifeProof Nüüd is waterproof, dirt proof, snow proof and shock proof, and the hand strap adds to the incredible freedom iPad owners get from the case.

Any of these hand strap cases can simplify your iPad experience. Which hand strap is the one for you?
