    My son dropped his iPad mini the first day he had it. Thank God for this case. I also like that it comes with the plastic screen protector so he cant damage the screen and there is no need to buy a screen protector.

    This case & cover is as SOLID as they come! I often travel with my iPad and have had several showing their mileage & a one broken along the way. This thing is like a vault for your iPad, so no matter where you take it, it’s SAFE!

    Otterbox products are a lifesaver. I have two young children who are rough with their stuff. They have dropped iPads from the kitchen table, stepped on them and sat on them and this product provides great protection.

    I bought an IPad mini and right away I wanted protection for my tablet. Best Buy was running a sale and I quickly purchased without hesitation. For your best/pricey investments otter box will keep you protected.

    I can't tell you how many times my boys have dropped our tablets and phones. Each and every time, absolutely no damage. Whether from 1 inch above ground or 3-5 feet above ground. It's protected. A must get. I got for all our ipads and iphones.

    Great iPad mini protector

    The OtterBox is an awesome way of protecting your valuable iPad mini. It's durable and hard coded which is great when storing or using the iPad mini. The only down fall is that in order to stand it up for viewing purposes you must detach a portion of the OtterBox and lean it up against the stand which does not lock into place. If there was only a hinge like attachment which prevented you from detaching the OtterBox and could lock into place, it would make this product OUTSTANDING!!!

    This was purchased online during Black friday sales as a gift. I was pleasantly surprised to see it was 50% when I went to check out, as I only knew the iPad was going on sale. Perfect add-on gift to protect my mom's new iPad.

    Thanks to this case, I can honestly say that my mini4 hasn’t been touched by human hands since it left the factory. It’s super easy to put together and does a great job of keeping your iPad clean and well protected.

    This Otterbox has literally protected this iPad in its travel around the world. Other cases may be less expensive but this Otterbox plastic held up to getting stepped on by an adult male. I thought my iPad was doomed but, not even a crack!

    Replacing iPad with newer version so needed newer otterbox also. Old one protected my son’s iPad for 5 years so I knew I wanted another one for new iPad. Best Buy pricematched the case to half price too!

    Nothing better than Otterbox. Use on phones and tablets. Holds up well to 3 kids who are less than gentle at times. Have used Otterbox for over 9 years now. Nothing better for this purpose on the market IMO.
