Folio was heavy and not for all IPads

I found that my IPad 2 Air was small for the case. It slipped up, down, and side-ways. Also, although very durable, it was heavy. I returned this item.

Hi ollielou,
That is very strange that the Symmetry Folio case did not precisely fit you iPad Air 2 as our cases are designed to fit their device seamlessly. We are sorry that this did not work out and we want to assure you that what you went through is not a typical OtterBox experience.
We truly hope that this one abnormal event does not discourage you from considering our products in the future. If you ever have any OtterBox questions please feel free to give our friendly Otters a call at 1-855-419-7417.
Best, OtterBox Customer Service Team

Hey there weetoonie21,
Sorry to hear that the Symmetry series was a little too thick for your comfort level! Although we do our best to keep our case designs as streamlined as possible, at a certain point, it just isn't worth it to sacrifice any further protective layers. After all, device security is our top priority! However, we're always looking for ways to enhance the Otter experience, and we'll be more than happy to pass your feedback along to our product design team for future evaluation. If you have any additional questions, please feel welcome to call our playful Otters at 1-855-688-7269, and they'll dive right in to help out!
Cheers, OtterBox Customer Service Team

Doesn't Fit Exactly Right

The case seems like good quality, but the volume buttons don't line up right. I will probably have to buy another case.

Hey cougar12,
Sorry to hear that this Symmetry series isn't letting you "turn it up!" We find it very odd that your case isn't aligning properly, especially because as long as you have the iPad Air 2, the unit should fit seamlessly. Please always feel welcome to call our Otter super-sleuths at 1-855-688-7269 so that they can take a closer look and solve this mystery for you!
Sincerely, OtterBox Customer Service Team

Had to get a refund after a BestBuy sales person thought this would work. He did a great job in working with me. BestBuy didn't have a case I could use.

The case didn't fix my iPad and unfortunately I had already thrown out the packaging prior to finding this out.

Quality I've come to expect from Otterbox

Found it difficult to evaluate cases online so I visited stores. The Symmetry fits the iPad very well and without adding a lot of bulk and weight. Corners are protected and with the flip cover (which is held closed with a hidden magnet) I don't see a need to purchase a screen protector. iPad also goes into sleep mode when cover is closed. Quality materials and craftsmanship parallel that of the iPad. Very pleased with product.

Good case overall

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
Otter box does not disappoint with this case in general. It is not nearly as bulky as the Defender series and it looks much more professional which I like. My biggest issue with this case is that I am left handed and therefore typically have the home button on the left side of my screen for fingerprint passwords and such. The case can be closed when the iPad is positioned this way but the magnetic closure does not function so when I slip it into my bag for transport it doesn't stay closed. I will likely be looking for a different case because of this flaw.

Very nice case providing excellent protection. It does add bulk and weight, though.

A very nice looking, sturdy case that protects the iPad Air 2. It does add weight to the tablet but that is expected for a protective case like this. Ability to rotate from landscape to portrait when used as a stand is a real plus.

Awesome Cover

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
This is by far the best iPad cover that I've purchased (and I've had several). True to Otterbox form, this case makes you feel secure in that if you dropped your device it will be safe and you won't be springing for a new one...or at least paying someone to fix the glass. It also stands up in several positions and is able to rotate on a 360 degree swivel. Wouldn't have another case.

WAY TOO HEAVY!!

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
It looked great, loved how it closed...Until I realized it weighed a ton. What was the point of having an iPad "AIR" if your case makes it feel like a thick law textbook? I'm sure my iPad would be really protected, but it really is so difficult to carry. Returning it tomorrow.

This case does the job well. I like that it is sturdy and seems it will last unlike my previous cases that fell apart in a few months.

We used this to protect our Ipad during our summer travels - it cleans easily and held up to drops and sticky hands.

Magnet Closing Lasted less than a week

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
I didn't want all the restrictions of the Defender. But the magnetic closing of this doesn't work in less than a week. Have to look at the warranty. Don't feel like taking a 1 hr drive to return it, but the alternative is a big rubber band.
