STM’s legendary Dux case now comes with a keyboard, the perfect addition to a product line that has long been the industry standard for maximum protection with minimal bulk. Featuring rugged construction—using some of the lightest materials available—to safeguard your device from the rigours of the classroom environment, Dux also boasts a clear panel design that makes it easy to scan tags or barcodes on a device (with no need to remove the case).

• We believe good enough isn’t good enough

So, we make it a point to go above and beyond—even in the way we test our products. Military standards for drop testing require that a product like Dux be able to maintain all operating functions after plummeting 26 times for a height of 4 feet. We subjected Dux to our own extreme testing at 6.6 feet. It passed. And that calls for the best drop of all…a mic drop.

• Our locking keyboard is a greater attraction than a magnet

It’s one thing for your keyboard to be firmly attached to your laptop when sitting atop a desk. But entirely something else to remain secured when carried in your backpack. Because we understand that part of the reason you have a laptop is the ability to be mobile, we designed our keyboard so it won’t detach while in your bag (a primary cause of damage to the screen). Our push button release ensures a more reliable connection than a magnetic one.

• Because sometimes you just can’t buy a (missing) vowel

• Twice as smart

Keep either your pencils or crayons safely and conveniently stowed in the space cleverly designed for both.

• You’ll flip for this feature that flips for you

The Dux keyboard can fold 360° around the back of the case so you can lay your iPad on top of it. This simple reversal gives you the ability to use your digital device in its more traditional method—sans keyboard—without the need to detach anything. Don’t worry, keys automatically deactivate in this position (and will reactivate 3-4 seconds after being returned 360° in the other direction).
