Speck CandyShell Wrap iPad case folks, serves as stand

Speck just got back from showing off iPhone cases and covers at CES, and now the company has debuted its CandyShell Wrap case for the Apple iPad, just in time for this week’s Macworld Expo in San Francisco. In addition to protecting an iPad from bumps, scratches, and dirt, the CandyShell Wrap case features a removable cover that can fold up to serve as a viewing and/or typing stand.

“Our goal was to narrow the function of the CandyShell Wrap case for iPad to the most useful: viewing and typing,” said Speck’s director of design Bryan Hynecek, in a statement. “CandyShell Wrap is the first of our new generation of functional iPad case designs for mobile devices to hit the market.”

The CandyShell Wrap features a glossy, hard-shell exterior with a rubberized interior designed to protect the iPad from everyday bumps, knocks, and scrapes. The case’s front cover flips open and closed, and can be folded back to serve as a stand for viewing or typing, and the case has a flip-back panel that enables users to dock their iPads without removing th case.

The CandyShell Wrap case for iPad is available now in black for a suggested price of $59.99.

Apple typically releases a new version of its products every year, but 2023 was different. That was the first year Apple did not release any new updates across the entire iPad lineup.

We’re now a couple of months into 2024, and it’s rumored that Apple could be dropping new iPad models this month — as early as this coming Monday or Tuesday. After all, a new M3 MacBook Air just came out, so naturally, we should expect new iPads after not having any update last year.
