Cygnett OpticClear
"Best of all, I have also found the iPad 2 to be just as sensitive to touch with this protector installed. It also does not seem to leave as many fingerprints as other brands which is definitely a bonus. The product also contains two protectors and a microfiber cloth for cleaning with works exceptionally well. Another two thumbs up for Cygnett." |

Cygnett Armour for iPad
"As per most Cygnett products, the installation was a breeze and all functions and buttons on your iPad are fully accessible. More importantly, the sleep-wake function work perfectly, when opening and closing the case as opposed to some other brands. In terms of its design, I also love the clear centre piece that lets you highlight the Apple logo. Hey... Apple make great products so why not showcase your iPad 2 because this is not an Android Tablet or a Kindle! Once again another great product from a great company." |

Review: Nine iPad 2 folio-style cases
There’s a lot to like about these cases, especially if you like leather folios. The iPad itself is framed by leather, a look that I don’t really like—I’d rather see as much of the iPad’s glass front as possible—but is quite common in folio cases. To insert the iPad, you remove a Velcro fastener from behind the left side of the leather frame and slide in the tablet. The leather frame keeps all ports and buttons accessible, including the iPad’s rear camera via a circular cut-out. Each of the Cygnett folios includes the requisite cover magnets to support the iPad 2 sleep/wake feature, so the device turns on when you open the front cover. The cover also features a separate magnetic clasp, so the front cover remains securely closed when you’re not using the iPad. The front cover is actually attached in the middle of the back of the case, where a hinge lets the cover fold out into a triangular configuration that props up the main part of the case; three strips on the inside of the cover provide for three different video-viewing angles. |

Cygnett Glam & Windsor: High Quality iPad 2 Folio Cases [Review]
Safety of my iPad is my utmost priority and this is why I love the folio cases, specially the leather ones. No matter how many people have Galaxy Tab or some other tablet, iPad 2 still manages to get some eye-balls in these geeky events. Having a good looking and well designed casing surely helps me in this regard. Cygnett has come out with some of the best iPad 2 folio cases I have seen. |

Cygnett’s SmartSound Case Pumps Up the Volume of Your iPad 2
There are a ton of choices when it comes to protecting the back of your iPad 2 when you’re using an Apple Smart Cover. Most however only protect the back of your iPad 2 and do little else. Not so with the SmartSound Case from Cygnett. Not only is the SmartSound a protective case that works in conjunction with the Smart Cover but it also actually boosts the audio coming from your iPad. It’s the case’s unique SoundScoop that works to increase the volume by directing it towards you which in turn produces volume that’s louder and clearer. It actually can increase the volume by up to 10 db – more than doubling the original volume level. |

The Day I Lost My IPad
“Yesterday I made the fatal mistake of leaving my iPad2 on the bonnet of my car. To cut a long story short (you can read the full story in the link below), your Glam iPad2 case SAVED my iPad! It hit the ground off the bonnet of my car at around 100kph and only came out with a few scratches and a bent corner so THANK YOU Cygnett on a fabulous product! :)” – Facebook message from blogger Amanda in Queensland Australia |

Cygnett Workmate Pro - iPhone 4 Case Review
"The primary purpose of the WorkMate Pro iPhone 4 case from Cygnett is to protect your phone, and it does its job very well. But what took us by surprise when testing the case was how slim and compact the WorkMate Pro is when fitted to your iPhone 4. Bulk is typically synonomis with shock-resistant cases, but that couldn’t be further from the truth with this new offering from Cygnett. (Video also on link)" |

Cygnett iPad 2 Case Review – Glam, chic and built like a brick!
“This little stunner, the Glam iPad2 case by Cygnett, comes in basic black or brilliant red (shown above) and is not only a gorgeous book-style companion, it also doubles as a super sturdy protective cover for your iPad. Just ask me, I know. My iPad, in its shiny, schmick black Glam case, recently survived a high speed fall off the bonnet of my car and lived to tell the tale with little more than a few scratches and a bent corner. The iPad itself received one barely noticeable hit to the top right corner but nothing was broken like I assumed it would be. Imagine my relief when I discovered this! The first thing I wanted to do, after profusely thanking the person who found my iPad on the side of the road and returned it to me, was call the company that made my iPad case and tell them a thousand thank you’s. Instead, I settled for publishing the story on my personal blog and letting them know about it on their Facebook wall and how grateful I was for their product. Apparently my story has been the talk of the office at Cygnett and they were so impressed that they wanted to send me a replacement Glam iPad2 case for free! I told them thanks but I would like to keep my current case as a constant reminder of my stupidity and after all, it adds a bit of character and gives me a story to tell (even if it is at my own expense). Cygnett are still going to send me a Glam iPad2 case but instead of the black, they are shipping out the gorgeous red case for me to give away to one extremely lucky reader of this blog. This means YOU!” |

Cygnett CarGo
One accessory we’d recommend for every iPad-owning parent is a car mount that fits on to a front seat and lets the kids watch their favourite movies on long trips. This one from Cygnett is a little flimsier than some, but has the advantages of being made for either generation of iPad and being easily mounted and removed. It can be angled and rotated any which way. |

Review: Cygnett UrbanShield Case for the iPhone 4
"One of the best things about the UrbanShield is the price. The case sells for only $19.99 and the fact that it includes a screen shield makes it a steal. The fit is superb and the finish ultra stylish. I look forward trying more of Cygnett’s offerings. Stay tuned for more reviews to come. PROS: Affordable, stunning brushed aluminum look, includes screen shield. CONS: Minimal lay on the table protection." |

Cygnett UrbanShield for iPhone 4
The Cygnett UrbanShield has quickly become my go to case as it gives you the look and feel of an aluminum case without the added weight or signal degradation. Considering the sides are a matte rubber finish there are no signal issues and feels great in the hand. You can see the attention to detail with the individual cutouts for the volume rockers and the additional piece of case between the power button and the headphone jack, a spot that is typically ignored in snap back cases but adds a little more protection. This case gets my Editor’s Choice Award and if it were easier to purchased would have secured a 10 out of 10. I hope with the popularity the supply chain and distribution will improve. |

SecondSkin Ink Silicone Case for iPad 2
This particular skin works well for me on a day to day basis, when I just have my iPad 2 out at home. Moving it from room to room, I no longer have to be bothered with a case that has a front cover that can obscure my camera. Since I’m not concerned about damage to the screen at home, the SecondSkin Ink by Cygnett still protects the back from unsightly scratches as I take it from the desk to the kitchen counter and then the coffee table. When I do want to throw it in my bag for use outside my home, the skin is quickly and easily removed from the iPad to put into a ‘folio’ wallet or in a case with a front cover to protect the screen from scratching against other objects. My husband prefers the SecondSkin Ink on my iPad as well when he uses it; as my other two covers are pink and red! |

Review: Cygnett WorkMate Pro Case for iPhone 4
"If you’re the type of person who needs just a little more protection than the average iPhone 4 case provides you’ll want to have a look at the WorkMate Pro from Cygnett. Just like the company’s UrbanShield, it offers a stylish design at an affordable price. Perhaps more importantly though, it offers protection in the form of a sturdy hybrid design. PROS: Dual layer protection, comes with screen shield, two color options. CONS: Bulkier than most cases." |

Cygnett iPad 2 / iPhone 4 cases UrbanShield, WorkMate Pro, and Lavish Earth Reviews
It’s not often that we cover cases for any sort of device, especially Apple products, not because they don’t deserve coverage of course, but because there’s just so darn many of them out there! Every once in a while there’s a group that brings a combination of materials and form, though, that we just cannot resist giving a little extra time and a few words to. Today that attention belongs to Cygnett, an Australian-based company that will be launching their first wave of products in the USA this season, starting with the iPhone 4 and the iPad 2. |

Gadget Review: Cygnett Zooom (iPhone 3GS, iPod Touch, iPhone 4)
Now you have an easy to hold controller and it gives your games a new lease of life. Think about racing games on the iPhone, how much easier with handles as a controller? A lot easier is the answer. Perfect for games but you do need to take the phone out to access some features on your phone and in terms of headphones it's a non starter with the case on. Other than that this is a top-notch effective gadget. |

Cygnett WorkMate for iPhone 4
Of all the rugged cases I’ve tested, the WorkMate’s the only one I would consider using for my day to day iPhone use. I’m a semi-frequent iPhone dropper who’s been lucky so far, and I can’t imagine a typical drop causing significant harm to a WorkMate-clad iPhone. |

Review: Cygnett SmartSound Case for the iPad 2
If you’re using the Apple Smart Cover along with your iPad 2 I strongly suggest some sort of back protection while doing so. The back of the iPad 2 is easily scratched. I managed to put a nice scratch in the first iPad 2 I owned after about five minutes of use. A Smart Cover compatible case will not only serve to protect the back of your iPad 2 but also add some extra grip as well. You could go out and buy a plain case that does nothing other than protect. However, if you’re someone who listens to a lot of music via your iPad 2 or are someone who just finds the built in speakers on the iPad 2 a little too weak, you’ll want to check out the SmartSound Case. Not only does the case work perfectly along side the Apple Smart Cover but the fact that it boosts the sound of your iPad 2 is a welcomed extra as well. |

Cygnett WorkMate Pro iPhone 4 Case Review
“I am really impressed with the WorkMate Pro case, especially since I had never heard of Cygnett before. This case not only looks cool, but provides some of the best protection you will find in a case like this. The next step up is a heavy duty case like the ones from Otterbox, but those are very bulky and ugly. This case is going to be able to withstand pretty much everything you are going to throw at it, unless you plan to throw your phone off a building or something like that. Also keep in mind you also get a screen protector with the case… If you are looking for superior protection over the normal case then the WorkMate Pro is for you. This case is also amazingly $19.99 online! You can’t beat that price! Overall ThinkComputers gives the Cygnett WorkMate Pro iPhone 4 case a 9 out of 10 score and our Good Value Award!” |

Review: Cygnett CarGo for the iPad & iPad 2
“What’s great about the CarGo is the swivel feature which allows you to position your iPad or iPad 2 at most any angle and in either the portrait or landscape position…If you’ve been looking for an inexpensive way to mount your iPad or iPad 2 in the back of your car the Cygnett CarGo fits the bill. Jealous of those fancy vehicles with tiny screens mounted inside each of the rear headrests. With a car mount like the CarGo you can easily turn your iPad or iPad 2 into an instant rear entertainment system.” |

AeroGrip iPhone Case #Giveaway 10-10
“I received the purple AeroGrip iPhone case for my reviewing purposes. I wasn't sure how I'd like this case since it only covers the back and sides of the phone, whereas my previous case also wrapped around the front a little bit. But so far I haven't had any issues with it falling off or anything. The thing I really like is the grips on the sides of the case. They feel really comfortable when holding the phone. The other nice thing is it came with a screen protector. I don't know about you, but my screen protectors don't seem to stay clear an awful long time after letting my kids use my phone to play games. So it was nice to be able to change that when putting on the new case. Made me feel like I had a new phone all over again. Nice and shiny!” |
