Customers are saying

Customers enjoy the great protection and fit this Defender Series Pro Tablet Case offers for their Apple iPads. Many appreciate the case's design, but some find the stand difficult to use and are disappointed by the lack of a screen protector. Concerns have also been raised regarding the case's durability and price point. While some find it bulky and heavy, others believe the protection justifies the cost.

    Poor quality product. Does fit well on the iPad. Plug access cover won’t close.

    Stay away from this case. These should not even be sold. Hard to open case. Very flimsy. The angle lock jams and will break.

    I purchased an ipad, screen protector and this otterbox for my grandson 3rd birthday and within a month the Otterbox was damaged. He dropped it on carpet floors, it cracked and was missing a piece on the edge. Very disappointing.

    The detachable cover for the screen is hard to take off, especially compared to similar products for an iPad. Considering the price tag, it should be a little more user friendly. Other than that, it is solid protection.

      Hello! When speaking to iPads, the Defender Pro does not feature a built in screen protector which allows one to pair it with any of our screen protectors for the device. The Defender Series case for iPad does feature a built-in screen protector.

      Our engineers removed the built-in screen protector from our Defender Series case to ensure complete functionality with the newest devices. Our Defender Series was redesigned in order to provide the same drop protection even without the built-in screen protector. The addition of one of our amazing screen protection options provides your phone with premium protection and outperforms our previous Defender Series designs. OtterBox
