    Of all the cases offered including Apples own cases, the OtterBox is by far the best case. It protects all around including the screen. You can charge your iPad, plug in headphones and it has a stand for viewing also. Don't waste time and money buying a different case that is inferior.

    Good Overall Protection

    The case offers very good protection for your iPad and the stand is a very good bonus. Be fore warned that getting the case installed on the iPad itself my lead you cussing yourself because how tight it is. Once you have it on it not going anywhere. It does add a little weight and bulk to the iPad and if you have small hands you may have difficulty handling it over long periods of time. Overall I am glad i made the investment

    Legendary Otterbox protection. Exact layered fit includes screen protector. Yet to drop my IPad but I'm confident it's very safe in this Otterbox case. We have used cases from this manufacturer for several cellphones and other tablets in the family; we have yet to be disappointed. Great purchase (when on sale) and remarkable protection, in my opinion.

    This is the best case I have found for an iPad and had it since the iPad Air; I've tried a couple different cases but one wasn't protective enough and the second had flaws with it's built display. Maybe it can come in different colors in stores besides black but it does hold up to it's name and quality. Maybe it can be a little cheaper but best for the price of it's kind.

    Adequate Case but...

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I like the base/stand/screen protector which other cases do not have. However, the silicone protective cover falls away from the backing simply buy turning the case over. So much so that you can put your finger between the Apple Logo and the silicone cover. (see photo) Making it very easy for dust and dirt to get into the back of the case and work it's way to the front. My wife's iPad Air stays firmly attached to the back. Not sure if this is a design flaw or what. I checked out another at the store after I noticed this problem and it does it too. I love Otterbox and have used them on all my devices but this one is a MISS for me.

    Love the protection this product provides. I already dropped my iPad and the screen would have cracked, instead the protective screen has two small marks, whew! Love the two stand position the base offers, and base acts as protective cover when traveling. Only con is that the cut out for fingerprint ID is a bit restricted to access.

    I love this otterbox for my iPad air2.It was a little hard at first to get it apart and on my iPad but once it was on it looked great.It fits the pad just like a glove.plus it has a little stand of sorts built in it,well the bottom part has a thing in it which pulls up (sort of) to make a stand.And it doesn't really add weight or bulk to your tablet either(well not much anyway) plus it's pretty much slip resistant making it a little harder to accidently drop.and another good thing is it has a built in screen protector.I would highly recommend this product to anyone and even buy another if I had to.both iPad and box are well worth their money and then some.I got both pad and box for Christmas and very happy with both.

    Since I use my iPad Air 2 to take stats and to video players, the protection the defender gives is necessary. I like the screen protector and the toughness, especially on the corners. The one feature I would like to see is the ability to take pictures and video with the cover of case snapped on the back.

    I bought this case for my cell phone and knew the good quality -- it's worth the money. There is a built in screen protector so you don't need to worry about putting the sticker one on and messing it up. Easy to wipe down to clean.

    Case adds some wieght and bulk to the ipad air 2 but worth it when it drops or my son gets a hold of it. Worth the $$ if you want to keep your tablet in mint condition

    Outstanding Otterbox

    Otterbox does it again! This case not only fits like a glove, but offers great protection too. As an added bonus it doubles as a stand when watching videos or playing games. The only drawback is that the case is a little bulky and hides the sexy, sleek, sophisticated styling of the iPad Air 2.

    My purchase was for outdoor use and protection during travel by car and air. The screen protector is excellent. Drops and torque in a backpack are no longer any worry. Just what I have come to expect from Otter.

    Bout it so I didn't have to worry about my kid getting food on it or dropping it. Now I just let him have it and wipe the screen protector off when he's done. No complaints here about the product it's great

    I previously purchased the apple branded case for a ridiculous 80 dollars which I would later regret. Once this came out, I purchased it because it provided extra protection in case I accidentally drop it. The only con I have with this case is that it's heavier. Overall, I'd rather have a case that provides the protection if it ever falls.

    Best Protection for iPad

    I have used the OtterBox defender series for my last 2 iPhones and would never even consider any other product. Believe me I dropped my phones and they never had a scratch with the OtterBox so of course I decided that I wanted the best protection possible for my iPad Air2 so I went with the OtterBox defender series again. It does add some bulk but I don't mind, I actually enjoy that heavier feeling, it gives me the security of knowing that if I drop it, it will be OK! I invested a tidy sum into my iPad so why wouldn't I want to invest in the best protection around.

    I have an otterbox on my phone which is the only reason it still works. I am very clumsy and wouldn't leave the store with my ipad unless it was protected. It was a little challenging to install, but it is definitely a sturdy protection device.

    This Otterbox Defender feels slender, pretty light for something that protects your iPad. The added bonus of this is you don't have to buy a stand in addition to the protector. The stand doubles as a screen shield! Living up to the name "Defender".
