I use my Air2 mainly for reading magazines, newspapers, and books. I wanted a cover to (a) protect the iPad, (b) add a bit of thickness to make it easier to grasp (and keep me from dropping the iPad), (c) prop it at a comfy angle when I am seated at a desk or table, and (d) add a splash of color (the Mossy Green) so I don't leave it somewhere. The Profile case does all of that perfectly. I have none of the problems with the clasp that others have complained about. I added an inexpensive amFilm screen protector, which does not interfere with the Profile case.
Previously I used various keyboard folio cases, mainly Zagg, because I used the iPad as a sort of mini-laptop on trips rather than bring my 13" MacBook Air. I switched to a 12" MacBook, which isn't much bigger than the iPad and has a much nicer keyboard than the folios. Plus the folio was awkward when reading somewhere other than at a desk or table; the keyboard got in the way. So I decided to skip the keyboard and get just a case - and this is great.
I bought this case 2 weeks ago and I'm in love. I love the way it fits my iPad. Nice and slim. It's not bulky at all like my previous otterbox case. Would definitely recommend.
the case itself seems good. it fits the ipad securely and offers protection. the design of the over is what i had issues with. when you fold the cover to the back of the ipad, there is a "middle section" that is smaller than the front and rear cover, so the ipad flops around. and the grooves in the stand do not properly hold the ipad up.
This iPad case is exactly what I needed...sturdy, sleek, and very professional looking. I purchased an iPad with 128 GB, so I wanted to make sure it was protected. This Otterbox case definitely fits the bill! My only con is the volume and off/on buttons are hard to press down.
I have bought numerous cases for my mini ipad and they all fell apart or just did not fit well. This cover fits perfectly and protects it and it also looks good. I also like the way it supports itself when you want to stand it upright. The other covers never did that.
Doesn't fit right wont latch can't adjust the volume piece of junk
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hey there wally,
Yikes, sounds like this Profile series is feeling a little too tight! This is bizarre, since as long as you definitely have the iPad Air 2, this case should match-up seamlessly with your device. We apologize that this is happening, and our handy Otters would love to fix things up with some troubleshooting. Please don't hesitate to call them at 1-855-688-7269, and they'll do their best to mend the situation!
