From Incipio:

A package deal with dual-injected materials, a low-profile NGP® core, a Plextonium™ frame, and a custom retractable, built-in Kickstand® for hands-free viewing, the KICKSNAP™ case is a well-made, sleek and functional solution.

The case offers:

Rigid Plextonium™ shell with impact resistant core

Built-in Kickstand

Excellent shock absorption

Hands free viewing

Here’s our video look at it…

You can get more information and order yours on the company website.

MSRP: $34.99

What I Like: Offers decent protection without too much bulk; Includes screen protector; Has a stand built right into it

What Needs Improvement: I would be worried the stand won’t holdup over time
