I was asked to review the Catalyst Waterproof Sleeve by Paul from The Outdoor Adventure. When I agreed, I wasn’t too familiar with the product, I actually thought it was more for the iPhone. Turns out it’s rather larger, and fits an iPad, or a small laptop. I figured I could still run some tests on it to see how it performed. And my roommate has a tablet, so I could check out its for and durability.
This sleeve is designed to carry and protect your tech devices pretty much anywhere. Stylish and functional, they come with a carrying handle, and an over the shoulder strap to carry like a tote or purse. Or two that make it a small back pack of sorts. Personally, I like to be able to tuck the sleeve itself into a backpack for traveling security and protection.
The waterproof construction has a double seal water tight closure. With
cushioned high grade EVA foam, and a velcro folding flap to keep devices inside. You can literally go anywhere in any weather with your device, and feel secure. It can also work to keep sand out of devices at the beach. Or just store anything from your wallet, to pictures, or a book. Maybe even for carrying some important papers.? It really work wonderfully no matter what you’re using it for.
Likes:
Works great. I tested in my shower filled with toilet tissue, and completely submerged it in the bathtub. And all the tissue came out perfectly dry. Love the sleek black color.
Dislikes:
Maybe the price of anything. At $44.99 it is kind of expensive. But in retrospect, you probably have paid more than that for an iPhone case. So really not bad to keep your valuables protected.
Overall:
Great product that should last a long time and be extremely durable, while still protecting your devices from weather. I like it.
Specs:
The maximum internal size: H 300 x W 220 mm. Will fit pretty much any tablet or iPad comfortably. And a smaller laptop (11 inches) just fine.
Fits:
iPad (all versions), iPad Air, 11 inch Macbook air, Microsoft Surface Pro 3, and most 9 to 11 inch tablets and laptops.
