PRESS RELEASE

Aylesbury, December 10, 2012: With analysts predicting that tablet sales are set for a further surge this Christmas, Kensington has prepared a wide range of accessories for popular devices that are on sale now - with a price range to match every gift budget. Kensington's attractive range of cases provide flexibility, protection, security and help boost productivity, with cases available for all leading tablet models on sale today, including the iPad and iPad mini, Samsung Galaxy Tab and Amazon Kindle .

With prices starting at under GBP/EUR 20.00, protecting a tablet against bumps, knocks and scratches with a Kensington accessory is a good investment. A folio cover can save a fragile tablet from sustaining damage when dropped - most commonly a cracked screen - and costs less than even the cheapest DIY screen replacement kit.

A Cover for Every Tablet

With the Apple iPad mini expected to be one of this year's biggest Christmas hits, Kensington has a full line up of accessories, starting with the KeyFolio Pro 2 Keyboard, Case & Stand for iPad mini, available from mid-December, which protects the iPad mini while also providing a tactile keyboard with high-performance keys optimized for touch typists. Users who want to cover the screen for carrying around the iPad mini can choose a Protective Cover & Stand for iPad mini, a hard shell exterior with full access to all buttons and ports. The two-position stand makes it possible to find the perfect angle for typing on the screen, and also for watching videos. Kensington also has a range of sleek but functional Protective Back Covers for iPad mini, in a range of bright colors including teal, grey, purple and white.

For the full-size Apple iPad, Kensington has one of the most comprehensive, high-quality ranges of covers and productivity enhancements. No less than four different KeyFolio lines mean there's a KeyFolio for everyone. For the road warrior carrying their entire office around with them, Kensington has a perfect, practical gift idea: the KeyFolio Executive for iPad 2 and iPad with Retina display, available in sober black and striking red. Combining a folio case for the iPad with a Bluetooth keyboard and a mobile organizer which includes a full-size A4 notepad held securely in a ring binder, KeyFolio Executive comes in a zippered case which keeps iPad and paperwork safe and secure, and also acts as an adjustable stand for viewing content on the iPad screen.

iPad users who need a keyboard but hate the additional bulk should look no further than the Kensington KeyLite Slim Touch Keyboard Folio available for iPad with Retina display. This provides the best of both worlds: an ultra slim, ultra-light, stylish and durable design folio cover combined with a waterproof, touch-sensitive Bluetooth keyboard. Further models in the Kensington KeyFolio range for iPad users are the KeyFolio Pro 2 with removable keyboard for iPad 2 and iPad with Retina display, and the flexible KeyFolio Expert model.

For iPad users who simply want to keep the weight down, but still avoid getting their device dirty or scratched, Kensington's TriFold Folio Case is the answer. Suitable for iPad 2 and iPad with Retina display, it combines a tough outer shell which also folds back to act as a multi-position stand ideal for both portrait and landscape use. When closed, the cover automatically puts the iPad into sleep mode, and a soft microfiber lining helps avoid scratches. The TriFold is available in red, black, grey or marble. The full range of folio cases and covers for iPad is available online from Kensington.com.

Ready for Christmas, Kensington has launched the Kensington Folio Case for Kindle Fire, which also doubles up as a stand. This enables hands-free device use of the Amazon device now available in Europe for the first time. A high-quality leather cover and soft-touch suede lining keeps the Kindle Fire safe and snug, while still providing access to all controls and ports such as the USB connector and headphone jack.
