i recently bought my second ipad and got another otterbox defender for it. it covers everything,looks good and what i especially like is the built-in screen protector. and it's lightweight too. i really didn't have to look far when i bought my ipad air2 because i knew otterbox was the best protector for my money.

The case is nice but it is a bit clunky, it's nice it has a screen protector, which I wasn't aware of, it is quite bulky and makes it difficult to plug in the power adapter.

I trust the staff at the Springfield, MO Best Buy to give me the best advice for what I need. They have never let me down! From buying a computer for my granddaughter who was starting college (ended up with a Macbook Pro) to buying an indestructible cover for my iPad, they understood what I needed and got me the exact product to fulfill my needs.

I had a Logitech and bought the case back to purchase the Otterbox Defender for IPad Air 2. This case is the best protection for this tablet and very functionally in different reading positions. I now have all Otterbox Cases for all my Apple products. The best case on the market for my intended purposes.

I have used OtterBox cases for my iPhone so I knew it would be a good supportive case. It is very sturdy but the cover/stand detachable piece is a little tricky to get on and off. It does add bulk and weight to the iPad Air 2 but if you are more concerned with protecting your device (especially if you are prone to dropping it like I am!) then this is a great sturdy choice.

I recently purchased an iPad Air 2 and absolutely needed a case. After looking at various products I was debating whether to purchase this case or Apple's Smart Case. I went with the OtterBox case because I believe that if I want to protect from iPad Air 2 from anything it would be this case. So far I have dropped by iPad with the case on once and nothing! Not even a scratch on the case. Great purchase!

This case is really easy to place, just wipe down any extra lint before installing. It protects very well from drop and prevents from screen breaking. Also, keep in mind that this isn't water proof but otherwise well worth purchasing!

Nice strong case but very bulky. You start with a thin iPad and end up with one much bigger but if you drop things like some people I know it should keep it safe.

My whole family has OtterBox products protecting our phones and with 2 rough boys, they have to be durable and offer the highest protection available. It was a "no brainer" when it came to picking a case, we wouldn't trust our IPad with just any cover. Great way to protect your investment.

This product has withstood abuse now for nearly a month with three very active kids. It protects the ipad extremely well. Was a bit challenging at first to install, but found a youtube video that guided me through it and it was very simple after that. It is definitely worth the investment.

This is an exceptional case for the price. Very sturdy and rugged, designed to withstand any kind of impact to the ipad. The only negative I would have with the case, is it's hard to power down the ipad when you want to turn it off. But that's not a big deal to me as most of the time I leave it plugged into the charger. Would recommend this product highly!!!!

This case is lightweight but offers maximum protection. I always purchased Lifeproof in the past as I use my device for business. The Lifeproof was considerably more expensive and much heavier. This Otterbox case is perfect!! I bought one for my iPhone 6 also. Great prices at Best Buy too!! Highly recommended and comes in colors other than black!

This product works great for my special needs daughter she uses her I-pad to communicate and drops it all the time, to this day no problems with the I-pad. We just purchased a new I-pad air 2 with 64 g and the only cover I would get was the Otterbox!! Just pink this time :)
