### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Great case with tricky assembly
  

*by J***A on Reviewed in the United States on February 7, 2014*

First of all. Yay Amazon Prime.  This Otterbox defender, for ipad mini with retina display, was delivered in a day and a half.  Now that it is assembled, it is fantastic.  The stand is great and also functions as a cover or an extra piece of backing for the case.  I bought the case because I constantly drop iPads, computers, phones, etc.  It seems bulletproof.  The struggle I had was with the assembly, so much so that I thought I was missing a part/piece.  The assembly videos on the Otterbox website would not load on my computer.  So I resorted to YouTube.  I couldn't pry off the silicone shell case at all.  I thought maybe my case was broken or defective.  Well, thanks to YouTube I learned to use a stiff credit card to pry off the silicone layer.  Once I did that, the rest of the assembly went very easily and the case still let's all the controls on the ipad mini function perfectly.

    Best Tough Case!!
  

*by Z***A on Reviewed in the United States on April 16, 2014*

I bought this case to protect the ipad from the wear and tear of 4 girls 11, 10, 8 and 2.  It's held the test so far.  It does add just a slight bit of weight to the ipad but they have no problems with it so far.  Their little fingers have been able to manipulate the screen and function all of the devices buttons.Putting the case on was a bit daunting at first.  I had to watch a video to make sure I was doing it right.  But once you have the case and rubber on it, you feel like it wrapped in kevlar.Another good thing was it comes with a screen protector that is hardly noticeable and doesn't limit any functionality.  IMHO there is no other tough case that compares with it's durability.The added bonus is the hard detachable front cover that doubles as a portrait or landscape stand for the device with reasonable stability.  Certain buy if you find this product under $40, worth $100.

    Very good case if you want all-in-one protection.
  

*by J***S on Reviewed in the United States on December 5, 2013*

We had an Otterbox Defender case for our previous iPad Mini, and I thought it was a good but not great case.  It protected well but was heavy, drab looking, impossible to take off, and the screen protector had a noticable gap between the protector and the screen.  It was with mixed feelings (and trials of a few other cases & screen protectors) that I bought another Defender for our new Retina Mini that our 2-year old will be allowed to play with.For some reason, this case "clicks" with me much more than the previous one.  First off, the grey case is a great improvement over the black!  That's personal preference, of course, but it doesn't look so dreary on a fun device.  Second, in this example the screen protector sits flush with the ipad's screen, and there's no more of that annoying gap that made touch detection frustrating.  Now, it is still heavy, and I've given up on taking the iPad out of the case for my own use, but the little improvements make a world of difference.  I am also a big fan of the lid that converts to a two-position stand.  Very satisfied with this case.
