This is the 3rd otter box. Very rugged. Good protection. Makes iPad very cumbersome. Difficult to remove for cleaning screen. Heavy.

I ordered the IPad folio case first but my wife decided to go with OtterBox Defender Case for her IPad. It's looks really bulky in the box but fits great on the IPad offering great protection front and back. The OtterBox case comes with addition cover with a stand capability I'm so glad they finally made this option available for I Pad. I give this product a thumbs up.

This is my second case as I passed my older pro to my son after almost three years of use and many drops. I work in construction and it still seams indestructible. So when I bought my new IPAD Pro it was my first choice. The only downside is the power button is difficult to power off this was also the case for my first as well. My first IPAD was destroyed within 30 days of purchase due to someone else’s neglect and no case. not any more since using this case.

I had an issue with my iPad and Apple replaced it at no charge but said that I could not put AppleCare on it. So, I had to get a super protective case. I prefer the iPad naked but I have two small children and hate even small nicks on it. I love this case and now don’t even mind having my iPad fully encased.

I love otter box. I have them on all of my phones and iPads. My 3 year old got a hold of this and dropped it. There was no damage at all. It’s a Litte bulky but what do you want for great protection. I just made this a water proof case and then there would be nothing to worry about at all.

OttorBox is the best case to use for your ipads. This is my 3rd case with this company and it has held up from drops and being handled rough with the young child of mine. Only case to use with all my future ipad purchases to come.

I only buy OtterBox cases anymore. They are head a shoulders better than the other brands. Your iPad Pro could survive a war zone in one of these cases. They are pricey... but total quality and worth it. Protect your investment and spend a little more on OtterBox.

Got this product for the bosses iPad. He had a tendency of dropping and cracking the iPad screen and was on his 3rd iPad. A few days after putting the case on he accidentally dropped it and guess what??? No Cracked Screen! An amazing product!

The 12.9 iPad cover world isn’t the most expansive out there, thus limiting your choices. Otter Box makes a very safe, but not the most stylish case.
The flaps that cover the charge port don’t align perfectly. And the cover/stand isn’t the best.
