Customer Ratings & Reviews

The case seems pretty sturdy. However, the case covers the camera lens and the volume button does not work with the case on. I use the volume slide on the screen.

It is a bit bulky, and the accessory flaps wear out over time. However Lifeproof offers great replacements should you have issues with this!

Horrible so hard to press the buttons on the sides and top one I regret buying this expensive thing ....ugh i'm unable to use inappropriate language

Works as expected. Good, solid case. No issues so far.

Wanted to purchase otterbox but they were out of, we were leaving the next day for vacation so purchased what they had. The cover over the screen interfers with volume control causing volume to not work correctly.

The case covers the camera and hits the volume buttons.

I am not going to return this product. I am going to keep it for when I go to the beach. However, if you like a clean looking screen, this isn't the case. The pladtic cover always looks dirty. In addition, it enhances glare.

I was given the iPad air case by the sales representative when I had purchased a iPad Pro at the time they did not make a life proof case for the iPad Pro.

Does not allow me to control power or volume there fore I have to remove it each time I try to use the iPad Makes it difficult to enjoy

i ordered the wrong one had to take it back but best buy was more thank happy to help

The Home button became unusable for kids, returned

My three year old grandson just dropped the IPad in the bathtub with this case on it and now my $600 IPad is ruined. It says it is waterproof. Don't try it anyone.

Not satisfied at all the case didn't hold up well at all.

Main concern was I did not want iPad to feel bulky. Love playing my games in tub!! Please do water test first!!!

I have Lifeproof products on 3 iPhones and 2 iPad minis. When I bought my iPad Air a few weeks ago, I didn't know what I was going to do. I patiently waited and used an apple Smart Cover in the mean time. Between riding a motorcycle and carrying my iPad in a backpack, to the fact that I live on an island where it rains or I'm at the beach, Lifeproof has me covered.

Great case, not worried about it getting damaged.!

very lightweight and durable - keeps my ipad protected and looks good too!

My daughter's IPad broke the screen after a tumble out of the car onto the driveway. Replaced the screen and locked it up tight in a Lifetouch . and we lived happily ever after . We did not do a Youtube pretest for underwater use . So we are not adventurous enough now to use it underwater.

This case infuriates me. It is so close to being perfect, yet fails due to degrading the screen in a horrible, distracting way. Let me back up. I've owned this version for the air, as well as two cases for the ipad mini retina. All of them suffered from the same problem, however I think the air made it more noticeable. When talking about built in screen protectors, I've noticed two types of rainbow effects: 1. This is noticeable more so from an angle, and is primarily located in a fixed position. It may, for example, measure 2 inches by 3 inches (length x width) and be located in the lower center of the screen. You may only notice it when viewed at an angle, or certain lighting conditions. However, when in use, the ipad screen may appear clear, and the rainbow not noticeable. 2. This is the more annoying type, where the screen is 100% covered with tiny "rainbow artifacts." It's as if each pixel has its own mini-rainbow, and text is horribly distracting. You know how a finger print looks on your screen? Imagine that, all over, maybe a bit muted but just as noticeable. Type 2 is what this cases suffers from, and has occurred with all three cases I've owned from the company. I've also owned the griffin survivor, which has the same issue to a lesser extent (and is much more bulky), and the otterbox. In the end, the otterbox is the one I went with. It's actually smaller, more protective with drops, and it feels of higher quality with a better grip. The screen protector is of a higher quality and doesn't produce the distracting rainbow affect this one does. Another concern is button stickiness. On all three lifeproof fre's I've owned, there was an unevenness to the volume buttons. The lower one worked ok, while the top one was a struggle to push. You had to push it at a very specific angle, and at a certain pressure before it worked. The otterbox does not have this issue. I would of loved to have kept this case, but it just couldn't read ebooks or texts with it. I kept getting eyestrain after prolonged use. When I switched back to the otterbox, I was very surprised as the text looked sharper and colors more vibrant, as well. I really hope lifeproof fixes these issues, because this would be the case to own, if it didn't have issues.

This is a great case. It looks awesome and it's slimmer than the otterbox with added ingress protection. The only draw back is the screen protector. It adds a grainy texture to the screen and like other fre products, the dreaded neutron rings are present but I've seen worse. If you can deal with the screen degradation it's a wonderful case.
