Geekscape Tech Review: Gumdrop Cases DropTech for Microsoft Surface and iPhone 7

Okay, now that we are in a series about Gumdrop Cases, it is time to talk about another one. This is the impact resistant, dual-layer silicone/ABS construction DropTech Microsoft Surface Pro 4 Case.

I’ll go ahead and say that it has that clean tire tread look that is characteristic to Gumdrop Cases. I’ll also go ahead and say that the design is very similar to the Hideaway Case for the iPad Pro 12.9. That is, it has a rubbery flap in the back to allow the Surface Pro 4 to lean back and become a kickstand.

By the way, there is a full integration with the Surface Pro 4 kickstand, and the ports for the keyboard connection are fully accessible. Also, there is a built-in Microsoft Pen slot. Oh, and I think we can’t ignore that Tech and Learning magazine named the DropTech Microsoft Surface Pro 4 case a winner for their 2016 awards of excellence.

You should be able to get the DropTech Microsoft Surface Pro 4 Case on the Gumdrop cases website for $69.95.

Time to talk about the DropTech for the iPhone 7. Unlike my first three cases that I have reviewed, this Gumdrop Case is made for the smartphone. I was thinking that it would have that tire tread look to it, but it actually is a transparent case. The border is that rubbery feel that feels imported from the aforementioned tire tread tablet cases.

Just to let you know, the transparent protection is only on one side. So it will cover the back of your iPhone, but you will have to purchase a screen protector for the front. By the way, the case has an obvious “Gumdrop Cases” label on it. Then again, I don’t think I know any case of a protective case that didn’t have a label on it.

All in all, I would recommend this, so head over to the Gumdrop Cases site and lay down $34.95 for it, and snap in your iPhone 7.

Also, do you want to hear more about the latest in technology? In early January, there is a big event in Las Vegas known as CES (Consumer Electronics Show). I want to go and report on it, but I need some help. I have a new GoFundMe site that will “Send Mark (me) to CES 2017”. Please click here and make a donation.
