The tilt mechanism for reading/gaming is cheesy. Not smooth and very awkward to adjust in/out. Feels like it will break very easily. Also, no screen protector unlike other otter box cases
Response from otterbox.comBy OtterBox, Customer Service Team, January 13, 2023
Sorry to hear you're not feeling super confident in the durability of the shield stand portion of the Defender Series Pro case for iPad (10th gen). The mechanism that helps allow for hands-free viewing and such didn't give us cause for concern during our internal testing, but we'd certainly be happy to help with a warranty replacement if something should come up.
As for a specific screen protector, although this model doesn't have one built directly into the frame, we do make some stand-alone ones that can be paired with the case for extra security if you'd be interested in adding another layer to the mix. Feel free to check out the options we have available through the following link, and definitely give our friendly Otters a call at 1-855-688-7269 with any questions, and we'll always be happy to talk shop!

The iPad 10 folding stand is useless.
on February 7, 2023
Posted by: JimFlorida
I’ve used Otterbox on every Apple device I’ve ever owned. The folding stand for my IPad 9 was perfect. The folding stand for the 10 is a joke. In making it super adjustable you’ve ruined ease and functionality. I’ll be amazed if this frustrating, flimsy stand lasts even a couple of months.
The case is great as always but I use the stand often. Terribly disappointed.

Hey there! We're so sorry if you've had a discouraging experience with the Defender Series Pro case. We designed that stand to be adjustable for the viewing our your choice and you should be able to move the positioning of it with ease. We'll provide a link to a video below showing the different stand options that we hope helps. We sincerely appreciate you sharing this feedback with us though and we'll be sure to shoot your thoughts up the ladder to our design team for you. Please feel free to give our friendly Otters a ring at 1-855-688-7269 with any questions or if you'd like to chat about this a bit more.

Hi there Jeff! We're sorry to hear about this unusual situation with your Defender Series Pro case for your iPad. Our Defender Series Pro cases are very sturdy, so it is odd to hear about this! Thankfully, we have an awesome product warranty policy, and we would be happy to get a replacement sent your way. Just give us a ring at 1-855-688-7269 and one of our friendly Otters will get you taken care of.

I was disappointed in the case. It is heavier than I expected and the back covers the camera lens. I expected better from Otterbox.

I hope the very slim adjustable stand will last.

It has taken me a bit to familiarize myself with the versatile stand that is built into the case. The mechanism to change the angle seems a little bendy and thin, it makes a lot of creaking noises upon moving, so hopefully this won’t affect its longevity. Everything else about it is good and as expected from Otterbox.
I would recommend this to a friend!

We're sorry to hear you're having a creaky sorta experience with the Defender Series case. That wasn't anything that gave us cause for concern during our internal testing, so we're wondering if a brand-new warranty replacement would help to quiet all that noise.
If you want to give it a fresh go, or if you end up sticking with your current one and do end up having some sort of issue with the stand (we don't expect that), just ping our friendly Otters through the following link, and we'll be glad to help get one in the works!

Thought the case I bought came with protective screen in the case. turns out it did not have one. Wish I knew that I would have bought a different one. It’s for my 9 year old so protection is a must. Would hate to damage the ipad

Hey there! We're so sorry to hear the Defender Series Pro case wasn't what you were expecting. You're correct to say this case doesn't include a built-in screen protector, but if that feature is important to you, we'll provide you a link to our Defender Series which does have a screen protector built into the case. We're happy you've found this case sufficient otherwise though. If you have any other questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to give our customer service team a call at 1-855-688-7269.

Very good Ipad protector. The otter box defender series has been a good choice for me. I also have one for my phone. Don't leave home without it.
