Zagg brought its whole new range of protective screens and cases for new Apple devices to the Pepcom Holiday Spectacular virtual press briefing Thursday. The company rolled out screen protectors for Apple Watch Series 7, iPad mini (6th gen) and the iPhone 13 series, along with a range of cases for the latter.

The Salt Lake City-based accessories maker’s CEO, Chris Ahern this to say:

Zagg protects better, which means we do more than just protect people’s digital devices from drops
and falls,” said Chris Ahern, CEO of the  “To us, protect better means 360-degree protection for the devices that connect people to their world. We integrate the latest innovations — like D3O impact protection and Eyesafe blue-light filtration technology — to help protect the devices that hold memories, funny texts, important messages and priceless pictures.

And Zagg recently launched its “Protect Better” campaign featuring NFL football running back Marshawn “Beast Mode” Lynch. He runs through a wall in an amusing campaign video.
