Carbon fiber cases are most noted for their high tensile strength and resistance to extremes in temperature. In these case, the carbon fiber (also known as “carbon graphite” or “graphite fiber”) provides a good amount of protection while also maintaining a low weight. While the look of carbon fiber tablet cases may be indistinguishable from those of other materials, users may be assured of...

As a material for any consumer product, leather has several distinct advantages ranging from durability to sheer feel. But the disadvantages are also immediately apparent: Leather goods can be prohibitively expensive and animal-based production is questionable for many.
