    The case is super sturdy. I wish it showed the apple on the back and wasn’t so heavy but it definitely feels protected. The piece that snaps on the back to turn it into a stand is a little confusing.

    Really? Bought on 10/4 and broke by 2/1/25. Indestructible, I think not. Expensive, yes. This Otterbox Pro Defender cover broke as it plummeted nearly 2 feet from my chair to our carpeted floor. The plastic stand broke and now flaps open and close like the mouth of a product pitchman.

    This is perfect for the iPad 10th Generation with no built in screen protector because I’ve installed the tempered glass screen protector.

    It protects the iPad. It looks good but the kickstand on the back feels like you’re breaking it to put it in any position horrible design on the back. Everything else is fine.

    Solid protection, but the stand needs work , The case is very sturdy and definitely keeps the ipad safe. However, the cover/stand has room for improvement; the part that supports the base gets stuck and is so rigid that it’s almost impossible to move.

    This Otter Box is even easier to use than the one I got 6 years ago. So protective when I accidentally drop it, and stands up well when my grandkids use the iPad.

    Perfect Protection

    It's a great cover that provides excellent protection. Only complaint would be that it's 2 detached pieces so you have the back cover connected to the iPad while the front cover needs to be removed for use and subsequently placed back on to protect the screen when not on use. It can be attached to the back and has a kick stand, but while attached to the back it covers the camera. But the purpose of the cover is to provide the best protection possible and it leaves no doubt that it will do just that (as long as you have the front cover on).

    Loyal Otterbox customer so had to have this for our new iPad. Easy to install and great protection for the iPad. Some information indicates there is a screen protector included. The only screen protector is the one thay snaps on and off. A film protector would also be nice. Best Buy matched a sale price elsewhere so couldn't pass up this purchase.

    I got this case and an iPad as a gift for my daughter it was a good case and protected the back of the iPad but if it had a cover on the front too it would have been much better especially for the price

    The stand is difficult to use. It is effective once you get it open, but it is hard to open and close. The entire case is very bulky and I am not sure how much protection it would provide on a hard surface. I have had thinner cases, but I wanted to try this for my new ipad. Probably more than needed, although the case feels like it is mainly plastic.

    Best Otterbox for iPad ever…nice design.

    They completely redesigned this case. It’s much better than the old design. I’m glad it doesn’t have that flimsy side panel that would always come off on the cases for the Air, Pro, mini 6, etc. it’s simple and it works. Love the new stand design…also love the built in slot for the pencil.

    The rubber part is great. The outer black stand is awful. Broke within a day. If you see it on sale and just need the case it’s great. Does not come with screen protector and that’s a must with the iPad.
