Extreme Portfolio™ for iPad 1 or 2/10″ Tablet
Announcing the new G-Form Extreme Portfolio™ – Extreme In-Use Protection!
G-Form Extreme Portfolio™ for your iPad or iPad2, will protect your tablet from impact by utilizing RPT™ – Reactive Protection Technology, a composite blend of PORON® XRD™ material and proprietary G-Form materials and technology.
The G-Form Extreme Portfolio™ is a lightweight and water-resistant portfolio case that also has an internal layer of polycarbonate on one side in addition to an inside pocket for documents. The G-Form Extreme Portfolio™ can be opened and used in several configurations. The front cover can be reverse-zipped behind your tablet device which offers two levels of RPT™ protection. In this position, the front screen is still protected by RPT™ corners that also serve to hold it securely in place. The Extreme Portfolio™ can also be used in an easel or A-frame configuration in either landscape or portrait mode.

Hi Rich,
Yes, there is room for the Smart Cover. Thanks!
Greg
Is there a pocket for accessories such as charger, headphones, etc?
sara
Hi Greg,
There is a pocket on the inside of the case. It would definitely fit headphones, and possibly a charger, depending on its size. Thanks so much for your interest in G-Form!
Cory
any chance this would fit a 10.1 inch tablet?
admin
Hi Cory,
What tablet do you use?
Cory
I have a Samsung galaxy tab 10.1.
Ivan
Could you plug headphones into the iPad 2 while the case is open for use?
admin
Hi Ivan,
Yes, the iPad2 ports will be accessible while in the case.

Can you make a demo about a drop on the edge of the ipad ? It seems that it’s a more common drop case, no ?
admin
Hi Jerome,
We have plans to release more videos. Subscribe to our You Tube channel to be one of the first to see our new videos.
Jerome
I’m talking about all your videos, including your latest one with your test “glass side down onto pavement” test. I wish to see a test with one corner first (2 meter height would be enough).
A K
Will you deliver in Mumbai India? Is there an additional cost for this?
When are US deliveries expected if one pre orders now?

Hi,only one color?
admin
The Extreme Portfolio is available in both yellow and black.
tim
I am concerned as to how protected the ipad would be from a drop on the zipper side/edge. Is there stillsuitable padding in that area?
admin
Yes, the edges are protected.
J
Any plans to make one for 7″ tabs like the Evo View?
admin
Hi J,
I will send this request to our R&D team to see about future plans.
Craig Myers
Could you add some attachment points for straps. It would be really nice if it could be used as a backpack just by attaching straps at top and two at the bottom corners. It give you mobility and yet you don’t need to take a backpack.
Brett
I would imagine with the puffiness of the G-Form material, that the front cover probably has a tendency to want to flip back open when folded back behind the folio. Is this the case?
If so, I was just wondering if there is a mechanism that keeps the open front flap stuck in place to the back of the folio while you are holding the iPad with the case open, or do you have to hold the front and back flap together to keep the case open the whole time?
admin
Hi Brett,
The Extreme Portfolio is designed to reverse zip so the front and back cover will be zipped closed.
S
Is there a screen protector or screen shield?
admin
No, the Extreme Portfolio does not come with a screen protector or screen shield.

I find your product impressive, yet I’d like to re-visit a previous poster’s comment about corner and side impact. My encased iPad 2 slipped from my hand as I was walking yesterday, and the screen shattered after it landed on its edge. I certainly have no statistics, but my guess is most falls and drops occur from less than 6′ as if being dropped while carried or falling off a table or such, and I bet in most of these situations, the iPad lands on its edge or corner. From the limited images of your product, it appears the corners and edges are the least protected areas (I did see the comment that stated there is padding on the sides), and so I’m hesitant to purchase your product at its current price prior to having confirmation that your product can effectively protect my iPad in what I assume is a more typical scenario of landing on its edge or corner once dropped. The 60′ drop is impressive…but I’d like to see a video on how your product performs in a more common scenario. Thank you.
sara
Hi Steve,
Stay tuned! We are in the process of making a video of the Portfolio performing in some very common scenarios. (Even in an open orientation!) Make sure to check our Youtube channel here:http://www.youtube.com/user/GFormLLC Thanks so much for your interest in G-Form!

Hey there,

Thanks for your interest!
Clyde
Hi I’m from indonesia and wanting to pre order the case, but can i ask how long will it take until the case reaches to my house? and when u say water resistant does it mean we can put in inside a swimming pool and not worrying the water my come inside to the iPad 2? Thanks 
sara
Hey Clyde,
The amount of time it takes to ship internationally will depend on which shipping option you choose, but generally it can take anywhere from 7 to 15 days. Water resistant means that small amounts of water will bead up on the surface and not permeate the surface of your case, due to the Thermoplastic Polyurethane film that covers it. However, it is not completely water-proof and submerging the case will let water inside. Thanks so much for your interest in G-Form!
Hendra
Hei..can i still use the back case when i use the portfolio? What company/provider shipping do use to indonesia? Thx..
sara
Hi Hendra,
The iPads were fitted in the Portfolios without an additional case, so generally they will not work with a back case unless it is thin.
matej
Hi there , Could this hold a Seashell design type Asus Netbook …which is a little more then 10 inches wide? its specs : 10.31 (W) x 7.01 (D) x 1.02~1.44 (H) inches
because it would be more usable as the netbook could be still in the Portfolio when open and running… i broke my lcd panel when mine fell from a couch.
you couldnt have that luxury with a Sleeve
Thanks
sara
Hi Matej,
Our Portfolios have not been tested for that purpose, and we cannot guarantee that it would work for you. An in-use case for computers is a great idea, and we really appreciate the suggestion! We have a number of new products in the works right now, so make sure you keep checking for updates!
Gregory
evening would it be possible to put a small strap to carry it more easily (style sac) thank you and happy Thank you for answering me I admire what you do.
sara
Hi Gregory,
Thanks for the suggestion! As of right now, the Portfolios do not have a strap on them, however we are always looking for ways to make our products better. Make sure to keep checking back with G-Form for updates and new exciting products!
Oscar
Hello,
I was just wondering how long this would take to get to the UK and when they will begin shipping.
Thanks
sara
Hi Oscar!
The Portfolios will begin shipping to our pre-order customers on September 2nd. The live orders will be shipped shortly after that! The amount of time it takes to arrive in the UK would depend on which shipping option you chose, but generally it can take anywhere between 7 and 15 days to ship internationally.
Daivd
will this be available in the next 2 weeks as I have friends visiting in the US who could pick one up for me ?
sara
Hi there!
The Portfolios are going to begin shipping on September 2nd for our Pre-Order customers.
Becky
Is there going to be cutouts for the camera so it can be used while in the case?
sara
Hi Becky,
Thanks for the suggestion! As of right now, there are no cut-outs for the camera. However, we are always looking for ways to make our products better, and we really appreciate customer feedback. Keep the ideas coming!

What is the expected ship date on the Extreme Portfolio? I want it for my I-Pad 2 but if it’s going to be a while I’m going to order the extreme sleeve 2. Thanks!
sara
Hi Mike,

What is the expected ship date for the Extreme Portfolio I want to buy one for my Ipad2, but if it’s not shipping soon I’ll just get the Ipad2 existing product. Please let me know. Thanks. Mike!
contractweb
Hi Mike,
The expected ship date is Sept. 2nd, but we hope to have it out by the end of this week/beginning of next week for our pre-order customers.
Mike T
Great news…. I pre-ordered two one in black and one in yellow….just to mix it up! Also ordered a slew of your other products….keep them coming!
cdapple
Is the hull is waterproof ?
sara
Hi there!
All of our products are water resistant, meaning that small amounts of water will bead up on top instead of permeating through the surface. However, they are not completely water proof, and therefore cannot be completely submerged in water without causing damage to the electronics inside.
ANTO
could you make one for the iPhone in the future?
sara
Hi there!
Thanks for the suggestion! We love getting customers’ suggestions and feedback. We are working on rolling out tons of exciting new products so make sure to keep checking back for updates! Thanks for your interest in G-Form!

Is there room to have the Smart Cover folded behind the iPad 2 while it is in this case?
