Customer Ratings & Reviews

It’s a great accessory, protects my iPad and fits all my purses, no extra bags to carry. It also has a piece to stand your iPad at an angle for easier typing!!

First this comes in 2 pieces! Secondly when you have it setup with the guard piece on top it practically makes the camera useless. Thirdly, it’s supposed to sit in the second piece as a stand, but if it’s not perfectly in there then it’s crooked. So to use this device on the go and traveling around town taking notes for my job or fixing things on the fly it’s extremely impractical. You have this ridiculous cover that’s probably close to an inch thick, that has to be removed and clipped onto the back of it. Extremely annoying if you just need to take a quick picture or not about something and if you don’t clip the ridiculous piece onto the back then you’ll have to hold it along with your iPad…awkward. Also, no screen protector. Again, need both pieces to stand the iPad up…just dumb. I’m not really sure who this was made for, a light user who only uses it at home maybe with the occasional outing, that’s my only guess. There’s a limit between full armor tank and mobility/usability. That’s not available here. You got a tank and that’s it. WAY BETTER options for less. Another note: Apparently it’s not that good at protection either, ( just off corner drops, will leave a broken screen. That’s from a place I went to get my phone screen replaced at. PS: I bought this case without even looking at it. Said OtterBox on it and I just assumed it would be good. Off topic, but BEST BUY followed me around instead of asking me if I needed anything because I couldn’t find the case. Won’t be back again.

Excellent protector just what i needed. Recommend.

It would be nice to have the screen protector come with a case that is this expensive

So glad that I made this purchase for my ipad it has saved my bacon.

I use to use otter boxes for my cases over the years. I do not recommend this case. It is cheap plastic and more than likely would cause damage to your tablet in the long run. It is but cheap plastic that would not protect your tablet. Please get another brand. No I do not recommend this. Save your money.

I can't understand why Otterbox kept the model name Defender and drastically changed the capabilities by removing the top screen protector layer, rendering the case no longer waterproof. The "case acts as a screen protector" almost seems intentionally deceptive. This was my 6th Otterbox defender for myself, kids, and mother-in-law, but it's going back to the store. Very, very sad.

Poorly Engineered but still good protection. Purchased my first Otterbox for IPad Gen 6 and no instructions for first time user. Rubber backing was lose out of the box, but I assumed it was installation issue. After others users explained it was quality control issue and they suggested using duct tape which I did. The duct tape gets a lot of attention, hopefully Otterbox will will get the message and improve quality control for a top priced item.

Great case. Very protective and great features. I would highly recommend this item.

Like others, I am underwhelmed by the quality otterbox has presented us this time around. Major complaints, pen flap is a weak point and freaks and shifts. I can live with it. What I can’t live with is the rubber flap on the back being so floppy. Unless you are dust connoisseur you will not want this case. Does it look good? Yes. Is it poorly designed? Yes. Is it worth the money? Hard no. Unfortunately until someone out does otterbox or otterbox fixes this mistake of a case, this is what we get.

I was very disappointed when I dropped my iPad Mini 6, within the Otterbox and the iPencil portion of the case broke off. I had only had it for a few days and it fell less than 4’, from my hand to the ground.
