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.

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

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

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 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.

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".

Not waterproof but it appears everything else proof. Excellent fit as all buttons line up and the importance of that cannot be overstated. Screen cover is clear and works without flaw.

Love this iPad case. It fits my iPad perfectly and protects it from scratches and any damage if it is dropped. Would buy it again without a second thought. Color is great as well and built in screen protector does the job right.

The is the must have case for ultimate protection for the iPad Air 2. Does make it a little heavier case seems to weigh as much as the iPad but also feels so solid shouldn't have any issues with the occasional mishap.

I have used a few cover protectors over the years but this has to be the best yet. Initially, it was difficult to figure out how to get it on but once done it fit well, gave different angles for viewing but most of all covered the whole of the iPad. I am positive that my iPad is well protected.

I have 4 kids 1-1/2 to 6-1/2 and I use Otterbox on all of my mobile devices. I have used Otterboxes on my iPhone & iPod and have never cracked a screen from accidental drops. They hold up well and only need to be removed for occasional cleaning. Well worth the price considering I have spent twice that on replacing cracked screens with inferior cases.
My only complaint is the built in screen protector, which was easily removed and the clear plastic that covered the home button, also removed. The screen protector both iPad and iPhone messes with the touch sensitivity. The clear plastic that covered the home button hampered the fingerprint reader.

One Strong Case

After receiving an Apple iPAD Air 2 for Christmas I definitely needed a case to protect it. At Best Buy I went to the area that had a large number of different cases for the iPAD. I read everything I could find to determine what would work best for me. I chose the OtterBox Defender Series because it was really strong. I definitely made the right decision. It is an excellent case and does a great job protecting the iPAD. Since I have never had an iPAD before I did not know how to install it. My only complaint was that the directions on how to install it were not clear at all. Fortunately, YouTube has some great videos that made it very easy. If I ever have a need again, I would not hesitate buying the same protective case again.

Otterbox is all that it's cracked up to be. It gives you protection on both the front and back of the phone. The only drawback is that it adds a little weight to the phone but for the protection it's well worth it.

I chose this case because its the same type case I have on my phone. Sturdy outside and protective screen cover to keep the screen from getting scratched. The 3 position rack in the case is an added bonus.

It adds a lot of weight to your iPad Air, but if that's not an issue for you it seems bombproof. I'm very happy with it.

This is great to protect your iPad especially if you allow smaller children to use it. The screen wipes off easily. The only downside is the bulky case sometime makes it difficult to store in small bags.
