    The case does not fit the iPad properly. No longer have to box to return. I am very disappointed.

    In a hurry and limited by choice. Protects nicely which is the main thing while still providing full use of device. The built in screen protector does not adhere to the screen but no issues with distortions while using device. Does add a bit of weight to the device. Easy on/off design. There is no cover for the screen when the device is not in use but that's just a preference issue. The built in stand for the device is one of the better I've seen out there.

    This case adds a good amount of protection without being too bulky. My only issue is the screen protector tends to scratch easily. It is built into the front cover by the way, no need to apply. I have dropped my air2 in this case from about 3' and there was no damage.

    Slim and Safe

    Slim and Safe sums it up. My husband is a HS teacher where all his students have iPads. He tells them all to get survivor cases! Our 5 year old son has a mini with a survivor case. But I wanted a non black slimmer case. The blue is a teal shade of navy and professional!

    This case looks really nice with the iPad Air 2 in it. Easy to hold for a long period of time without fatiguing or cramping fingers. The iPad blends in the case snug and makes the case seem to be part of the iPad. The kickstand works really nice in both positions. I also like how it is built into the case which makes it secure when propped up. My only callout about this case is the screen protector. It does not lay flat and is loose. It does not affect the performance but affects the case aesthetically. Overall, a case worth investing in protecting your iPad Air 2.

    If you are like me and just purchased a very expensive iPad 2, then you definitely need this to protect it. My toddler has dropped this multiple times and this is worth the added investment. Best Buy was able to price match it too! Great store, great service, great durable iPad protector. You will be happy with it!

    I loved that this case came with its own screen protector that I did not have to apply myself. The rubber grip makes it easy to hold and reduce slipping out of the hands. The only thing I did not like about this case was that it muffles the sound a significant amount. What I did to fix the problem was remove the sticky pads from the bottom of the case and the sound was no longer muffled. I loved that the case was less expensive but just as useful an otterbox.

    I bought this for my iPad Air 2. I was a bit reluctant considering I've always used Lifeproof or Otterbox products. However, Lifeproof/Otterbox hadn't released a case for the Air 2 and I insist on having one for all of my Apple products. I am extremely happy with this case, though! It fits great, the screen protector is clear and doesn't seem to affect the tactile aspects of the screen. I like the rubberized portion of the case. It has a nice tack to it and is easy to grip. The little stand in the back is helpful as well. Fingerprint recognition has worked flawlessly. Overall, very pleased with this case! I would definitely buy one again in the future. Only downside is that it's not waterproof. I don't necessarily need that feature as I typically only use my iPad at home or in controlled environments, don't have any pets or children and I'm very mindful to keep drinks, etc away from the device anyway. Good buy, in my book, nonetheless.

    The only problems I had with the case was that its very difficult to put the cover on. Once the cover was on, there is a gap between the Ipad screen and the cover. This sometimes makes the Ipad difficult to use. Once the case is on your Ipad, it is very difficult to take off. Besides that, it's a very protective case for your Ipad.

    I like the fact that this case is so minimal for the protection it provides. The only reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 is because the screen protector doesn't lay flat against the screen of my iPad creating a bubble-like effect, which kind of gets on my nerves. But it's still functional and a great protective piece!

    We wanted a case that was not too bulky but protective enough. We also wanted a kickstand that attached to the case (not a separate piece because we would lose it). This is the case we had been looking for.

    Solid case for iPad Air 2, well constructed. Its light and the weight not noticeable considering this item is thick for added protection for the iPad Air. Love the back stand for watching movies. The downside is its kinda pricey but overall one of the best all round case for iPad Air 2.

    Great product to protect my iPad. It's not too difficult to set up and has a nice stand up use if needed. It's a lot easier and cheaper than having a separate case and screen protector

    Nice case alternative. Kickstand is convenient. Lightweight and sturdy. Not heavy in the hand or on wrist. Might be nice if can experiment with waterproof alternative too? But we recognize weight would likely increase. This is a nice little case.

    great ipad air 2 slim case

    As this is my 1st purchase of an ipad let alone case. I am very pleased with the assistance this store gave me in putting it on. I am also pleased at how protective the case is, as it is for my 2 year old. He has dropped it and its held to its standard, hes even dropped liquids over the screen protector and no liquids were found on the actual ipad air!!! However I'm dissatisfied that the kick stand already broke. And the rubber around the outside easily comes off and can be challenging to put back on (which is needed for shock absorbance). I would however recommend this to anyone looking for a lightweight case, that's not using it for a toddler

    protects the ipad well but it is inferior to otter

    I got this case because otterbox hasn't released a case for the ipad air 2 yet. It still covers the whole ipad but doesn't have the tough feel that the otterbox provides. Even though it has a screen protector, this case doesn't provide a cover like the otterbox does which you can clip to the screen to protect it from anything falling on to it. The otterbox clip also functions as a stand. This survivor case has a stand built in to the back of it but it feels flimsy and may break after repeated use. As far as rugged protection cases go, I'd recommend this as a starter case. Once otterbox releases their version i will upgrade.

    Awesome case for my iPad air 2. I went in to buy an otterbox and left with this. Well worth it and cheaper too. The instructions were a little difficult to understand to install it that's the only complaint I have.

    The shield protects as it describes but there is a small gap between the shield and the actual screen so when you type you hear clicking from the screen protector hitting the actual screen.
