Pros & Cons

👍 Pros

  • The 4-sided hood design effectively provides optimum glare relief, enhancing screen visibility for drone pilots.
  • Features a patented pierceable bottom panel, allowing direct access to the tablet's touchscreen functionality.
  • Quick release mounting straps with an additional horizontal safety strap ensure the sunshade attaches quickly, easily, and securely.
  • Constructed from rugged nylon with plastic inserts, offering a durable product designed for extended use.
  • Specifically tailored for iPad Pro 12" tablets, ensuring a precise fit and maximum shading effectiveness for the device.

👎 Cons

  • This particular sunshade is designed exclusively for 12" iPad Pro tablets, limiting its compatibility with other tablet sizes.
  • The 4-sided enclosure, while excellent for glare, may slightly restrict access to the tablet's side buttons or ports, depending on the design.
  • Once the patented bottom panel is pierced for touchscreen access, its ability to fully protect against dust or debris might be compromised.
  • The quick release mounting system is geared towards drone pilot setups, which might not be ideal or necessary for all users.
  • The combination of rugged nylon and plastic inserts, while durable, may not offer the same premium feel or rigidity as a metal-framed alternative.
