What we love…
The iBallz protect your iPad from landing face down on the ground if it is accidentally dropped
What we’d love to see…
Screen protection of some sort integrated into the system
Summary
This case fits the bill if you are concerned about falls and drops, the hard case fits perfectly in my bag to tote it around
Our Rating
Reviewed by Alison
Have you ever worried about the safety of your iPad? I do since my four year old loves to carry it around the self. Check our iBallz or as my son calls them “magic balls” with a harness and case system. We have personally tested the Sachel case which is perfect with the harness for flying – just hang the case from the seat back in front of you to an afternoon of appointments at the doctors’ office where you bring your iPad for a diversion.
I also love the hard case for when I need a slimmer case to put into my backpack with the iPad. Both cases have a soft lining designed to protect it from bumps while it is being toted around.
Check out the video below for a demonstration in action. I have never dropped my iPad on purpose like in these tests, but have heard from others they stand up to almost anything a person can put them through.
Cost: $24.95 (US) for the harness, cases vary from $29.95 – $34.99

I would love the case to be prepared when I get my ipad.
I would like to win this because it looks tough but less bulky than my daughter’s current case.
I like how it is lightweight, stands up and protects the iPad when dropped. This would be great for use with my toddler and commuting to university on the busy Tokyo trains.
I’d love to be able to have a lightweight case that still protects my iPad!
I would love this case for my son :)
Selfishly I would keep this for myself so that I can stop having heart failure every time my children play with the iPad on the couch.
I would use this for kids Ipad.
I would love this for my daughter to better protect her ipad.

I would use this for my iPad that I use with my speech and language students.
I would use it to protect my iPad when using it with my special needs students. It looks great!
I would give this to the homebound teacher works with some kids who throw things, especially the autistic children. It would be very helpful with all of her special needs kids. :-) Thanks for the giveaway!
Definitely one for the work at special school.
they look so cool.. ! would love to win
This looks so cool…we had to replace an ipad this week! If only we had these then! The i-pad was dropped at school landed on the corner…….smashed screen. how do you buy them?
Just click on where it says iBallz (in pink) in the review that is a link to their website where you can but them.
I would use it on our iPad
A real meet of form and function – these look fabulous!! When we finally get an ipad – this would be fantastic to protect it from the kids – we have already lost a laptop :( Truly gorgeous!!
Ok, got link! Love the application of this in therapy -less worry for the safety of my iPad!
Totally cute and functional. One of my coworkers has one and his bounced and absorbed the impact of falling on a tile floor! The iPad was fine!
Great protection for the iPad I use for preschool speech therapy sessions.
Would love to personally try this one out.
This sounds awesome! Really thinking of getting it… Would make me feel so much better about my school kids using my ipad!
Always looking for something cool to protect ipad from getting smashed!
I would like to win this for my iPad, to protect it at school!
That is awesome!
I’d rather iBalls than a whole new iPad! :)
I have 4 kids and also am a speech therapist in the schools, so this would be awesome to have!
This would be great to switch out for my son during some of his therapy sessions working on OT objectives
Two small children plus one ipad equals much nervousness for parents. Need protective case, stat.
Wow! I need this as much as my little boy! Lol
I’ve got 3 kids, so this would be great. I wouldn’t need to be so protective.
definitely for my 2 year old!
If I were to win the iBallz case I would show it to others and allow them to try before they buy. Sometimes you need to touch a case to tell whether or not it’s the tight one for you.
Would love it for my students!
Would love to win this for the school…. They could really use a iBallz case… :-) Thank you for the opportunity… Cheers!!
i would give this to my son for his school ipad it would be good for him
I would use this cover and ibalz protection system for my kids at school. With a classroom of sn kids, accidents happen and this set will protect our precious electronic investment!
It would be for my three boys who are always fighting over the ipad. That would be my 5yo who has autism and has just learned to access the music playlists, the 2.5yo who is a total iboy and the 15 month old who is built like a tank and can take them both down, no problems. The ipad is in the middle of all this…won’t be long!
I wrote about these fights on my blog a few months ago on my blog http://lovemanytrustfew.wordpress.com/2012/05/11/irumble-in-the-ijungle/
