Love the case and as always with otter box the first thing I do is rip out the screen cover, it just makes the interface glitchy and slow. I'd like the option to not have it installed in the future to save the glue unpicking.
The case instills a sense of confidence that my tablet is hardened for anything I could throw at it. Very happy.
Impressed at how quickly it was shipped; took 3 working days to get to Australia. The product itself is brilliant and really happy with it. The one flaw it has is that the built in screen protector did not perfectly match up with the screen and left a lot of unsightly bubbles and air gaps. One of the causes was the device sat slightly lower than the height of the protector in some places, especially around the edges. It is also not nearly as sensitive as the other traditional screen protectors. My solution after putting up with that for a while was to remove the Otterbox built in screen protector (unfortunately it adhered to screen protector I had previously applied!). Now that is all sorted I am very happy with the Otterbox and the protection it affords. The design of the stand that can have it fully elevated or partially is excellent for watching a movie whilst travelling. It has full functionality whilst in the case except for being able to swap out the micro SD..... a small and tolerable oversight considering designing that ability into it might possibly compromise protection.
I have otterbox cases on all my devices, this one provides great protection but adds substantial weight to tablet and the screen protector effects touch sensitivity of device. A little trade off for good protection .
the product is great, the quality of the materials are excellent, i would like to mention that in my tablet the screen protection it doesn´t work, because you can not use porperly your stylus, i had to removed manual the screen protection.
beside that everything is great, i know that the life of my tablet going to increase many years more.
Pros: High quality, Durable, design
Cons: screen protection uncompatible with note 12.1
First, I wish there was a not sure option on the recommendation of the product.
I can tell it is rugged and durable, which I like, but it is SO HARD to get the little plastic clips that marry the two sides together before the silicone sleeve. Also, because I have a screen protector on under it, the built in screen protector gets tacky and weird. I bought this case for transport and everyday use, but I was hoping it would be easier to disassemble like my G2 case and my previous cases for other phones (I've always gone defender level because I know myself well). I wanted to be able to plug in and do the keyboard thing occasionally, too. I have a hard time doing this and it is kind of annoying and depressing. I've thought about returning it, but I thought/think I'm not able to at this point. I do like the hard plastic stand, because I can clip it on the screen side for extra protection to the screen and less stuff is able to get into the creases of the screen protector on the case. I think it would be cool to have it where the screen protector could be optional and if it was just a bit easier to take off. I've massacred my nails trying to get the silicone sleeve off as well as undoing the plastic portion of the case.
Pros: High quality, Durable
Cons: extremely hard to remove, only slightly easier to put on
I work outside around swimming pools and my Galaxy tablet is an essential work tool. I've now used two otterboxes on different devices and absolutely love them - would have broken my tablet many times over without it!
Pros: High quality, Durable, rugged
I would recommend this to a friend!

This is a very nice case. Very durable and protects your tablet as expected. It does add a little bulk to the tablet.
