Customers are saying

Customers admire the Defender Pro Series for its excellent protection and ease of use, praising the case's snug fit and high-quality construction. However, some find the case heavy and bulky, and the lack of a screen protector is a common complaint. Other criticisms include the limited adjustability of the stand and the relatively high price point.

    I had an older iPad with Defender case and loved it, so I ordered this for new iPad. I DO NOT like this case at all. I had to buy a separate screen protector and this case has a hard plastic piece on the right side (that I have been told was for stylus) that falls off every time I pick the iPad up. It supposedly is magnetized but this is a very poor design and no way it protects if you drop it accidentally. I am so disappointed.

      Hey there! We're very sorry to hear the Defender Series Pro case for your iPad Air wasn't quite what you were hoping for. You're correct to say this case doesn't feature a built-in screen protector though. It is our standard Defender Series case for the iPad that includes that additional piece. However, we specifically designed the Defender Series Pro case to be seamlessly compatible with any of our trusted screen protectors, like Alpha or Amplify Glass. As far as that Apple Pencil tray goes, you should be able to slide it back into place if it pops out on you, but we apologize for any inconvenience there. We'll be sure to share all your feedback with our design team for you though. Please don't hesitate to give our CS team a call at 1-855-688-7269 with any questions or if we can be of any additional help to you.

      Kindly,
      OtterBox Customer Support OtterBox

      Hello Jesus! Our engineers removed the built-in screen protector from our Defender Pro Series case to ensure complete functionality with the newest devices. Our engineers redesigned our Defender Pro Series in order to provide the same drop protection even without the built-in screen protector. The addition of one of our amazing screen protection options provides your phone with premium protection and outperforms our previous Defender Pro Series designs. OtterBox

      Hi there!

      We're sorry to hear about your disappointment with that new Defender Series screenless design. After exhaustive design testing, our engineers determined that the best way to interact with the advanced screen of your display was without the addition of a built-in screen protector. That being said, our tests have shown that this case provides the same level of drop protection as past Defender Series cases. If you end up running into any issues with your case, we have a great warranty, so we're more than happy to get you taken care of with a replacement case. Simply reach out to our Customer Service Team here: https://www.otterbox.com/en-us/contact-us

    Otter box Defender Pro Series surprised me that it didn’t come with a screen saver. I spent almost $100 on it and I think it should have had a screen saver included. I had to turn around and purchase it separately.

    Good protection for iPad but get rid off plastic cover for Pencil dock and reposition (reverse) the charge port cover to prevent strain on the USB C port and cable attachment area.

    Have been satisfied with defender covers for cell phones but not this one for iPad Air 4. Too bulky ..also cover has to be snapped off entirely to see screen rather than folding back. Hard to do. Also not instructions for installing and was difficult.
