Siding Replacement Wars: James Hardie vs. LP SmartSide in a Battle for Contractors, Builders, and You | Lexan Polycarbonate Embossed Sheet

The Defender is easily the biggest case that will be featured in this roundup. It’s thick, it’s wide, and it’s heavy. This is all thanks to the dual-layer design, which comprises a rubber external layer and a two-piece polycarbonate frame. The rubber layer features textured panels on the left and right sides for improved grip, as well as some prominent OtterBox branding on the back. However, the polycarbonate bit is extremely hard to take apart due to the clips it’s held together with and the sheer brittleness of the material; every time I (attempt to) remove the case, I feel like I’m going to break something. That’s not something you’d expect from a case of this caliber. It does pass OtterBox’s Certified Drop+ Protection standards, so I wouldn’t be worried about punting it around once the rubber layer is wrapped around the outside. The soft layer inside the polycarbonate frame likely helps with that.

ZAGG has informed me that the reason I had problems with screen sensitivity on my InvisibleShield Glass Curve example could be the variances in glass curvature of Pixel 2 XL cover glasses from the factory. The Glass Curve is reportedly designed to fit most phones, but it seems like my Pixel 2 XL’s display curvature deviates from the norm. In fact, ZAGG told me that only 4% of customers have complained about screen sensitivity; that’s still higher than it should be at this $50 price, but it’s understandable. In the comments, three readers have said they’re satisfied with their Glass Curves, whereas there’s one other person who’s had screen sensitivity problems as well. I still can’t recommend the Glass Curve if it inherently won’t fit some phones properly, but I will link their site if you’d like to take a chance.

“It’d be nice for us to have that, but a little bit at a time,” Darwin said. “A little bit at a time.”

I hadn’t come across a leather case of similar quality to Apple’s own until now. Made with high-quality leather, wrapped around a durable plastic shell, the Mujjo Leather Case offers both style and protection. With the selling price almost exactly the same as Apple’s own leather case, it’s great to find an alternative offering that has even better protection. A plastic lip protrudes slightly from the edge of the case, and protects your screen in the event of a drop, or when placing your iPhone screen-side-down. — Ste Smith

Coupe-inspired premium crossovers aim for a suave appearance, but the design often ends up looking awkward by trying too hard to mix utility with the sweeping rear of a true two-door. However, Land Rover’s new 2018 Range Rover Velar proves that fabulous styling is possible in the segment. The new vehicle will make a big premiere at the Geneva Motor Show and will also be on display in April at the New York Auto Show. Sales in the United States will start this summer.

First a few words about Xplore Technologies Corp. of Austin, Texas. They have been making rugged tablet computers for over two decades and they have sold hundreds of thousands of them. It all started with the GeneSys line of ultra-ruggeds. In 2003 came the anvil-tough iX104 family that is now in its 6th generation. In 2013 Xplore introduced the Android-based RangerX tablet, followed by the Bobcat, a Windows version of the same platform. In early 2015 Xplore took over Motion Computing and added that tablet pioneer’s experience and their R12 and C5/F5 tablet products. Then came the XSLATEs B10 and D10, updated and more powerful versions of the Bobcat and RangerX. Last year Xplore pioneered the use of PCIe storage in rugged tablets. There’s a long history of of good design and innovation.

The split, sliding front center armrest allows row-one occupants to individually adjust each half of the armrest to their liking, and concealed underneath it is a cubby with a cupholder and additional storage space. Another cupholder is located under a flush-fitting cover next to the rotary transmission controller.

Later that morning, Apple was announcing new products and services, at the kind of event that the company, like a fashion house, stages a few times a year. Of a thousand attendees expected, a few dozen had been invited to the backstage courtyard. Among the guests were Rupert Murdoch; Kevin Durant, of the Oklahoma City Thunder; Marissa Mayer, of Yahoo; Jimmy Iovine, the C.E.O. of Beats; and the rapper and entrepreneur Sean Combs. (Fry later referred, fondly, to “Snoop Seany Sean,” who was gracious when Fry nearly soaked him with a spilled drink.) That day, a hundred assembly lines in Zhengzhou, China, were turning out still secret new iPhones at a reported rate of seventy-five hundred an hour, and rumors about new Apple products, including a watch, were being posted online at nearly the same pace. Tim Cook, Apple’s C.E.O., was somewhere nearby, preparing to speak to a hall full of enthusiasts and reporters, and to millions online. But Ive’s role was limited largely to drinking coffee in misty sunshine. Jobs excused Ive from most public-speaking duties, and he has held on to the dispensation.
