Hinge Clip Durability Issue
2 out of 5 rating
Timothy A. . 1 month ago
I have purchased two rugged books for my Apple iPad...one in Dec 2021 and the other in Nov 2022. The product is great with one exception. The hinge clip that holds the tablet does not hold up. It cracks after about 12-18 months and no longer securely holds the tablet in place. I otherwise love the functionality and tablet protection, but cannot justify investing in another unit at this point if it only will last 12 months.

I just received my 6th Rugged Book! I love these things! As a CPA, I am constantly reading, researching, sending/receiving emails and this works great! It also protects against falls from your desk, your lap, your vehicle, etc.! Awesome Product!

I bought this specifically for the 11-inch Pro and I could not get the case on the iPad. I checked and double checked that this was the right case for the iPad I have and it was. I ended up returning it and buying a Logitech.

Online request to replace my first rugged book was difficult and time consuming. The online agent quoted me a price. I had to call to place the order. Long wait time and the new agent quoted me a different price. I told him about the price I was quoted and he said he needed the name of the agent who quoted me the original price . I couldn’t remember her name so he wanted a screenshot of the online offer. I scroll back and finally found the online quote. By then he said he’d found the agent’s name and had talked to her and finally honored the quote. Frustrating, to say the least.

The Rugged Book hinges were supposed to be improved, however they are not. It used to be great, the new design is not worth purchasing, even though we were told the problem was fixed, it was not.

More rugged and much better!! Nice key board and nice loop for the pencil.
Wish I had gotten it a week earlier because I lost my Apple Pencil off the old one! Ouch. But this one is sweet!

I just received my case and it did not include a charging cable for the keyboard. Was a cable supposed to be included?
