Customers are saying

Customers highly value the excellent protection and snug fit offered by the Defender Pro Series Case. Many appreciate the case's ease of use and installation, but some are disappointed by the lack of a built-in screen protector and the somewhat problematic stand. Concerns have also been raised regarding the case's overall quality and the Apple Pencil holder's functionality. A few customers expressed dissatisfaction with certain aspects of the case's design.

    Needed protection for my iPad mini. This was easy to get on and strong enough to protect from accidents.

    Was very difficult to get the iPad mini inside the case there also is no screen protector that comes with it and no directions. Also, the stand that comes with it it does not work the little arm that is supposed to hold the case and iPad up is facing the wrong direction. If I hadn’t priced match to Amazon, I would be returning this item that we bought two of Regular $89. I got it for 42.

    When the case is closed doesn’t allow my Apple Pencil to charge. doesn’t hold the iPad , falls down easily The case is too hard to open . A case that separates in two pieces is not good idea . And over expensive …this case isn’t worth what I paid for…I’m sorry it was a mistake getting this.

    The fit is very tight, and at first I thought I would break the case trying to get it to close.... but it proved to be plenty tough. It is easy to access the ports, especially the charging port

    I bought this cover for my grandson’s iPad mini. He was very happy with the cover and I was too. I think that even if you are careful you could drop it and ruin your birthday gift.

    Great case protection! Other than travel, I don't use the cover too much and I can't quite figure out how to get the iPad to prop up in the cover but it's not a big deal.

    Bought this for my hubby when I surprised him with an iPad mini. He’s a mechanic so I wanted to make sure it would protect the iPad and it has! It’s taken some gnarly tumbles and it’s protected it. I will also say, it was a little tricky putting it together but once it was on, it stayed on. Definitely recommend and got a good deal on it with Best Buy!

    My son loves this case! It’s not as bulky as some other ones but he does not like how there is no stand for it. But there weren’t many cases to choose from.
