Overview
Leave it to the Rugged Experts!
Applying a screen protector or rugged Surface case is difficult; the cases are tight-fitting and screen protectors commonly attract dust and bubbles under the screen. The scrap rate for screen protectors can exceed 15% when done improperly. Leave it to the installation experts at MobileDemand to apply the bundles in a dust-controlled environment for a damage- and frustration-free experience.
The New Surface Go 2 MSR bundle offered by MobileDemand includes the Surface Go 2 laptop/tablet with Windows 10 Pro, a protective rugged case and screen protector pre-applied by experts in a dust controlled environment. The rugged case is easy to carry with multiple options and includes protected ports and rubber corner bumpers for added shock absorption. The bundle is also compatible with an optional fully adjustable easel.
