Fit is tight, which is good since my daughter is quite clumsy and drops the IPad at least once a day. I also like the fact that when I snap the cover on it protects the screen from damage as it jostling around in my wife's bag

I got this for my son and wanted to make sure it would stand up to his abuse. It adds a lot of weight and bulk but if protection is what you need then this is the best.

The OtterBox is a durable case for the Apple iPad mini. It can be used as protective container whether it is being used or is in storage. It can be used as a viewing stand for a flat display or either of 2 angular displays.

I have a rambunctious seven year old who plays with this on his device all the time. Hasn't broke yet. I've replaced several other devices before buying an otterbox but now will always buy one for our electronic devices.

All my family have bought otterbox cases for a while. Offers protection with style, so when I seen the color of the case I fell in love with it and it fits perfectly. I am using this case with my iPad mini 2.

The iPad mini otterbox case is perfect for protecting your iPad mini. It is a little bulky but adds to the toughness. The case has a built in standwhich is nice as well. Buy these for all of our company ipads.

I really like the protection this gives to the tablet. It can't be easily removed. It gives me some security that it can handle some accidentally being dropped. The screen protection helps with sticky hands.
The only negative so far is the plug-in for the charging port is hard to get to. Plugging the cord into th device takes a little patience. I'm afraid the plug-in is going to become stripped or broken.

Purchased 4 of these models for 4 iPads we were taking to shows and expo's. Have had a couple bumps and drops and no issues. Well worth the money especially if you can find them on sale for about $39.99.

Very sturdy. Great quality. Highly recommended. I've used this since I've had my iPad and it's been thrown around and everything and my iPad is still great condition. I would definitely purchase again.

The case isn't heavy or too bulky. Love that we can set the iPad in different angles when we put it on the stand. I also like how I can cover the screen to ensure it doesn't get damage. This case won't protect against water damage but I'm not worried because my son isn't allowed to use it near water. So far I haven't had any trouble with it and it has already taken a couple falls.

The otterbox is a great case because it doesn't add a whole lot of extra bulk but it protects the iPad mini very well! I've already dropped it on accident and it didn't break and kept my ipad safe.

We bought this for my 5 year old daughter. She likes the colors, and how the two-piece case can be used to prop up her iPad for easy viewing. The case also provides the protection you'd expect from otter box. My only complaint, and I'm hoping it will go away once it's broken in, is that it's a little fldifficult to open the 'flap' to charge the iPad.

While it is a bit hefty, the protection is there. The additional stand that protects it further is detachable, and makes it much slimmer when detached if size is of concern.

This is a very protective case and includes screen protection. It definitely adds a lot of bulk to the Ipad, but when my kids are using it, this is a great way to protect!

If you want to make sure your IPAD Mini survives an accidental fall then this case is for you. Like other OtterBox products this case fully encloses the ipad. The removable protective front cover doubles as a stand for it, which was a nice surprise. The built in screen protector works well with the protector I already had on my ipad and I am pleased with this purchase.
