My first choice case for my apple devices is Lifeproof. But this is a very close second, and has a much more reasonable price point. It's very protective and well designed. It's not too bulky. In the corners of the screen you have to press a little harder for it to respond because of built in screen protector. But that is nothing more than a minor anussance, and the only one. I've been using this case for a few months and LOVE it. One of my favorite features is the built in kick stand on the back. Unfortunately it only works in landscape mode. But I still use it all the time. I usually use my iPad in landscape mode anyway.

I'm a returning customer this case. I've used this on my iPad and my Galaxy Tab S. The kick stand is great for hands free viewing of videos. I've dropped both my iPad and Tab S from about 5 feet and has protected them well. My only issue that has stopped me from giving this item a 5 star is the fit on the rubber pad seemed misaligned. Couldn't get the same fit as my other 2 devices.

The Survivor Slim Case provides excellent protection for my Apple mini. It allows good access to the keyboard at the edges.
I have used the kickstand several times and it is a convenient angle for watching movies. I like the black color and how easy it is to grip on the side.

I bought this one because it was on clearance. It works well I've dropped it a few times and have had no issues. It comes with a plastic screen protector, which at times makes it difficult for the iPad screen to respond. Other than that it was a pretty fantastic purchase.

This is my second one, purchased it for the iPad Mini 3 and I'm impressed. Very easy to use, covers the iPad well and the sensor reader is great too. The built in kick stand is a welcomed feature. The previous models the stand was a bulky attachment.

I'm the type of person who drops my iPad a lot, and unfortunately had to pay over $300 to get my new one repaired. When I got it back from Apple, the first thing I did was head to Best Buy to find an OtterBox case for it. When I saw this Survivor case instead, as well as the price difference, I thought I'd give it a try. It fits perfectly, the screen cleans up better than any screen protector I've ever used, and it's survived several drops with no problem. If you're looking to save some money, get a case like this one. If you do, just a reminder that you DO NOT need to buy a screen protector (i.e. Zagg).

My kids are 3 and 5, so they are tough on anything. This case keeps it safe and scratch free. My only complaint is that the rubber/silicone piece never stays on and is difficult to get back on (and stay on).

The complaint I have with this case is that at the very top of the rubber outer cover that covers up the plastic, it doesn't fit properly. It appears on mine that it was supposed to be cut along the edges of the top center piece so that the edges of the rubber cover tuck in correctly to the plastic case. It leaves the rubber a little out of whack at the top middle on either side of the raised area, so for this reason I only gave 3 stars. It shouldn't affect the case living up to its protection standards, but it is an eye sore to me when I paid $60 for it. My expectations were a little higher.

We use these for all of our field technicians and they get abused but, we have yet to replace a tablet due to failure. They are not treated lightly either. They get thrown in a toolbag, dropped, get wet.

Durable, slim, so far no complaints. Bought this to protect my 6 yr olds iPad mini and its done its job so far. Overall happy. Seems slightly cheaper made than some of the previous versions

This case offers great protection from drops,the only drawback is using a stylus with this cases screen protector you have to push down hard to get it to work.

I bought this case for my daughter less than 6 months ago and the soft part of the case will NOT stay on. There are 2 parts to this case, the hard part which snaps around the iPad and the soft part that is supposed to attach to the hard part of case. It falls off by just placing the iPad down on the table. The case itself has protected the iPad well, but it is very frustrating how the soft part of the case will not stay on.

This is a great case for an Apple iPad device. Sturdy, durable, and protect against all sorts of incidents that lead to drops. It doesn't make your tablet seem all bulky and big with these cases. The slim design is a plus and it make it very practical to stick it into a marry bag in easy ease.
This case is meant to last so i would deff great use of it for a long while.
The only flaw that i found was the back clip that hold the stand from opening out, seemed to have worn out quick. Other than that, its a excellent buy.

My 7 yr. old wanted a blue cover for his mini iPad bevause he said his red cover was for girls. It's his favorite blue color and it's durable. He's dropped it a few times and so far so good, no damage. I'm quite pleased with this product.

Offers great protection from dirt, dust, bumps and short falls. Still allows for slim feel of device. I guess the stand works ok, but I generally don't prop up my device. Somewhat of a tricky install on the outer silicone casing (had to stretch and smooth out the bumps for a tight fit), but certainly not rocket science to complete.

This case is great. Great protection all the way around and love the kickstand. The only thing is it has a hard time reading anything towards the bottom of the screen i.e.: the space bar when typing you have to push a little harder and sometimes reading the thumb print. All in all we love this case
