Customers are saying

Customers are delighted by the great protection this iPad case offers and the convenient stand feature. However, some users found the case challenging to install and remove, and reported issues with the screen protector's fit and the case's overall fit to the iPad. A few also noted that the case added some bulk and partially obscured the camera. The case's protective qualities are a significant positive, but potential difficulties with installation and fit should be considered.

    When looking for the perfect case for my sons new gift from Santa, I did my home work and found the survivor case by griffin technology. This case was everything I was looking for in one. ( great design)

    replaced previous cover (10 yr old used a previous one for 2 years so it was time to replace). this works very well for a 10 yr old who plays games and watched videos

    Best case for my iPad so far, it has sustained the rough usage of my boys and the price is right too. A protective case is better than insurance for an iPad.

    Tough to get air into, very poor touch response. Protective plastic too thick. Returned it for the survivor case. More expensive is not always better

    • Brand response from Griffin Technology Q&A
      Posted .

      This particular case is made for the original iPad Air, so unfortunately it does not fit the iPad Air 2 correctly. The iPad Air 2 is slightly thinner, which will result in some issues if you try to fit the earlier case on your device. I'd recommend the Survivor Slim for iPad Air 2, which you can check out here: http://grff.in/c88lq

      Hope that helps!griffin-technology

    You can Not take pictures with this case on, it covers part of camera and extremely hard to get case back off. This case says it's for iPad Air 2 but you can't use it to video or take pictures.

    We have had 4 different Griffin cases. This was our 5th and I am not impressed. I feel like the screen is bubbly and I will be returning it. I'm hoping it's just a bad case

    This case is junk. I don't trust it to offer any real protection for my new iPad air. I only got it because it was the only case on the shelf that fit new dimensions of iPad Air.

    Worthless

    I went in to purchase a case for my new iPad Air 2. LifeProof has not come out with a case for the Air 2 so the sales rep advised that I try the Griffin. Stupid me for buying this case. First of all, the installation instructions are inside the sealed case in the packaging so you have to know how to open the case in order to get the instructions out; however, most of these types of cases have a particular way in which they have to be opened in order make sure you don't mess up the functioning of the case. Don't worry, there is nothing to mess up with this case, it stinks. I finally wrestled it open, took out the instructions, followed them, and got the cover sealed back up as directed. Well, none of the volume or on/off switches or ports were lined up properly. The Volume Up button was pushed constantly by the case so even if I managed to find the Volume Down button and turn it down- right back up it went!!. The camera was partially covered by the edge of the case. The screen protector/cover did not fit closely with the iPad screen- there were a couple of wrinkles in the protector and a significant space between the screen protector and the screen. So you have to push through the screen protector to get it into contact with the touch screen itself. Is this some new form of haptic feedback- an undocumented feature? Meanwhile the volume keeps turning itself up to 11! Understanding my own fallibility with instructions I took the iPad out (extremely difficult, especially if you try to follow the instructions provided-useless) and put it in again- very carefully this time- making every effort to line up buttons, ports, camera, etc. SAME RESULT!!! Do yourself a favor and don't buy this piece of junk. Poor quality materials, poor instructions printed in a font so small you need a magnifying glass to read it. AND, IT DOESN'T WORK!!!. I wouldn't recommend this to an enemy. I can't believe I have to burn the gas that I paid for to return this pre-trash.

    I was looking for something to protect the new ipad from my 6 year-old and this certainly accomplish that. It's strong enough, soft and not too bulky.
