Q: Does the case include port covers?

A: This protective case includes port covers to help keep dust and dirt out of your device.

Q: What are the dimensions of the case?

A: The product dimensions are 10.51 inches wide, 7.9 inches high, and 0.99 inches deep.

Q: What is the warranty on the Defender Series Pro case?

A: The manufacturer's warranty for both parts and labor on the Defender Series Pro case is 7 years.

Q: Can the shield stand be used in multiple positions?

A: The Defender Series Pro comes with a versatile shield stand that can be used hands-free in multiple positions.

Q: What is the purpose of the antimicrobial additive in the case?

A: The antimicrobial additive in the case helps inhibit microbial growth and defends the case exterior against many common bacteria.

Q: The case comes with a screen protector?

A: Yes and no. I was misled by the description as well. There is a case that encapsulates the entire iPad, then there is another plastic piece that would be best described as a holder, much like your phone would clip into the belt holder. This second piece is what they are describing as the screen protector, so yes while in place it protects the screen, but no you can’t use the iPad while it is in place.

A: Hello! Please reach out to us via chat, with the model number of your iPad handy, and we are happy to help with finding case options for your device!

Q: Can I attach a keyboard while the otter box protects the tablet?

A: Hello! This case does not specifically state compatibility with a keyboard accessory.
