The OtterBox Defender Series case for the iPad is the most protective iPad case on the market to date. It’s strength combined with it’s stealth-like design makes it one of a kind and well worth the $89.95 (pricey – yes – but worth it when protecting a $600 device).

The case features a hard plastic internal shell coupled with a shock-absorbent exterior silicone layer makes for the perfect combination. The plastic shell holds the device in place while protecting virtually every part of the device while the silicone layer provides added support for drops and such while also covering the the headphone jack as to protect against debris that might find it’s way into the ports. It also features a removable piece at the bottom of the case to allow for easy docking in Apple’s iPad charging dock.

The Defender Series has a cutout on the back to display the Apple logo, however, it has a plastic film on it so that logo’s area is not exposed. It also comes with a clear screen protector to protect the entire screen of the iPad from scratches.

The one and only downside that this case has, is the fact that it adds so much bulk as well as weight, but that is to be expected with such a protective case. I highly recommend picking this case up for yourself and out of the several iPad cases that I own, I normally choose this one.
