Users appreciate the case's high quality and enhanced grip, as well as its ability to hold the Apple Pencil. Some customers have noted the absence of a screen protector and the added weight. While some find it a bit pricey, others consider it a worthwhile investment for safeguarding their iPad.

    It protects the iPads well in our aircraft hangar. There are a lot of contaminants in our evironment and the iPads are prone to being dropped in our high usage area.

    The product is ok, works good but wasn't happy I paid full price and it was used. The packaging was obviously opened, not manual and it had been used. Didn't have time to deal with trying to get another.

    Sturdy as usual but the Apple Pencil slot pops open all the time. All I do is pick it up and it’s open.

    Not at all what I was looking for this did not have screen coverage. When the description said screen protection it does not mean screen cover protector.

      Hi there!

      We're sorry to hear about your disappointment with that Defender Series screenless design. After exhaustive design testing, our engineers determined that the best way to interact with the advanced screen of your display was without the addition of a built-in screen protector. That being said, our tests have shown that this case provides the same level of drop protection as past Defender Series cases. Keep in mind, this case is also compatible with OtterBox screen protection options. If you do run into any issues with your OtterBox, please don't hesitate to reach out to our helpful Customer Service Team at 1-855-688-7269, and we can get you helped out.

      Best,
      OtterBox Customer Service Team OtterBox

    I usually love Otterbox cases. This one seems a little flimsy to be a defender case. It’s difficult to turn on as well. I still love Otterbox cases. Just a little disappointed in this one.

    My daughter has broken two of these. Both in the exact same spot, the thin edge piece. And she's not rough with it nor has she ever dropped it. She only uses her tablet on long car rides.

    Nice design. Case feels ridged. Had to return it due to the pencil flap. 1 week into using the case the flap broke trying to open it.

      First week in and BAM—broken Apple Pencil compartment?! Obviously not what either of us was expecting and we're sorry things went sideways in such a hurry. Fortunately, we've got a great warranty that will help to restore structural integrity with a brand-new replacement, which we trust will stand the test of time going forward.

      Just ping our handy Otters through the following link or at 1-855-688-7269 and we'll have this all fixed up in no time! https://www.otterbox.com/en-us/warranty-begin
