    Love this so much! Works very well and is very slick. It also comes with a stand that works very well, offers probably the best protection for any iPad.

    This product is truly a masterpiece. It’s durability and being friendly-user makes us parents confident that my toddler will enjoy using it while not compromising safety. Thanks to the BestBuy family for recommending this. If you have children, this one is the best gift to give them.

    Peace of Mind for My iPad – Built Like a Tank!

    I got the OtterBox Defender Series case for my iPad Air, and I couldn’t be happier with it. As someone who’s a little clumsy (okay, a lot clumsy), I needed something tough enough to handle daily life, and this case delivers. It’s sturdy without being too bulky, and I feel way more confident carrying my iPad around without worrying about accidental drops. The protection it offers is amazing—I've already dropped my iPad a couple of times, and thanks to this case, it came out without a scratch. The built-in stand is a really nice touch too; it makes watching videos or working at a desk so much easier. I also love that the case has a built-in screen protector, which keeps fingerprints and scratches away without affecting how the screen feels to use. What I appreciate most is just the peace of mind this case gives me. Whether I’m tossing my iPad into my backpack for work or letting my kids use it, I know it’s safe. If you're looking for a case that offers real protection and durability, this is the one to get.

    It fits perfectly securely around the IPAD. Not afraid for the accident drop or it falling to the ground. The stand is sturdy so it sits up on any table for easy viewing.

    It’s great besides the fact the Apple Pencil accommodations leave the screen exposed even when the protective cover is on. I’m just using it for class but in the workplace I would consider this a deal breaker. My last iPad otterbox was of higher quality and the kickstand felt more solid.

    I totally recommend these Sony earbuds. Love the size and additional rubber tips to help best fit your ear. Great at blocking sound during my workouts in the gym with more than 10 folks working out and TV's and radios playing. Sound quality is very good. Did have some issues getting them to connect with computer and Iphone using app. Once connected never another problem.

    Solid case that does a great job protecting my ipad from me! I like the fact that it has a separate cover that can snap over the screen to protect it carrying the ipad in a backpack or bag. Its a bit overpriced though….

    If you are clumsy like me, get an Otter Box to protect your investment. I just got a new iPad and tried a regular folio. It just didn't feel right without an Otter Box. The last one I had was 10 years ago and my old iPad still looks pristine (it just got old). I have every confidence that this new one will perform just as well as the old one. Otter Box is a solid product.

    Took some figuring out for the case but I love that I don’t need to worry about my iPad being broken or anything of that nature. Only nit picky thing is that the outer case kickstand is clunky.

    I will always buy an OtterBox case especially for my iPads. Strong, sturdy reliable and this one comes with a kickstand on the cover AND the case itself, I absolutely love this one, oh and it also comes with a plastic screen protector which I always need on my iPad because I’m always wiping off fingerprints

    I have no doubt this would protect my Ipad as well as my other OtterBox products but this was too hard to open and I could not figure out how to insert my Ipad. It was returned to the store for a simpler case design
