Works as advertised. Adds security without a lot of bulk. Disagree with the other reviewers on the flap closing too tight. All you have to do is slide the case front to one side and down and the flap is easy to flip open with one hand. The pen holder is elegant, easily slides open and the pen can be removed with one hand. The material seems to resist fingerprints pretty well, and I like the clear back. It would be cool if they could work the pen holder into the hinge. And would suggest a rear-of-front groove to nest the folded segment when it's used as a landscape stand.
This a slim but protective case for your iPad! I’ve had several brands and this my favorite! It has a retractable place for and Apple Pencil, if you have one it’s cool…if you don’t it’s cool!
ugh! This case is designed so poorly! You have to wrestle with it to get the front cover open or fight with it to get the Pencil out. I thought the design looked protective and promising, but it is too aggravating to use.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

The materials used in the case seem fine, and I really liked the covers over the power and volume buttons. The big problem is the design for the pencil cover. Mine pulled off by simply sliding the iPad into a messenger bag after teaching class. I agree with other reviewers that the front cover is awkward to open and access to the pencil was finicky. I guess I just didn't expect that I would need to purchase a second sleeve to protect the Otter product.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

The pen holder is horrible design - it popped off and now it's useless. It's also super difficult to open up the case since it lies so flat. Disappointed that I bought this.

Horrible design. Pen holder popped off the case and now it doesn’t go back on the case. So now it’s useless. Only had the case 1 month with light use. Not Otterbox quality.
