Made with a hard armor shell and impact absorbing corners, UAG’s cases protect every inch of the 13-inch MacBook Air and 13-inch MacBook Pro.

Made with a hard armor shell and impact absorbing corners, UAG’s cases protect every inch of the 13-inch MacBook Air and 13-inch MacBook Pro.

As more tablets are used for data collection in industrial settings such as wind turbine nacelles, more of them are dropped and damaged. Urban Armor Gear, designers of rugged, lightweight, MIL-SPEC phone & tablet cases, have expanded their protective line of cases to include the 13-inch MacBook Air and 13-inch MacBook Pro with Retina display.

Made with a hard armor shell and impact absorbing corners, UAG’s cases protect every inch of the 13-inch MacBook Air and 13-inch MacBook Pro. The cases are engineered to be shock and scratch resistant, and are the first lightweight MacBook cases tested to meet military drop test standards. UAG’s durable, lightweight design protects from daily wear and tear while adding serious drop protection and maintaining a slim profile. Design features include cooling vents for passive heat dissipation, the inclusion of a rubberized FrogSkin non-slip hand grip, and easy access to ports. For added protection, the dual lock screen closure secures the display in the shut position during transport.

A few features in the protective cases include:

● Armor shell and impact resistant bumpers
● Dual lock secure screen closure
● FrogSkin non-slip grip
● Cooling vents for uncompromised airflow
● Meets military drop-test standards (MIL STD 810G 516.6)
● Available in 2 translucent colors: Clear and Gray
● MSRP: $79.95
