Review: Worth the money - Brought to protect work iPad that I use daily on all manor of sites, carrying out surveys, maintenance and installs. Have dropped more times than care to say, loose in van during travel. No sign of damage. Fit and quality great . Slimmer then previous cheaper brand. Worth the money to protect the iPad, or your concern when drop it off step ladders.
Review: Super safety! - Great protector for iPad and feels comfortable when using it - the soft back gives a good grip. (Bit of a struggle to prise apart the separate parts to affix it but worth the effort!). The lift-up support attached to the casing allows the iPad to be propped up at different angles for ease of use and there is storage space for the Apple Pencil. Bit expensive but very durable and of good quality.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does it fit iPad mini 4?**
A: Yes, and more importantly—no!

Although the physical dimensions of the iPad mini 4 and iPad mini 5 are nearly identical, the microphone configurations are significantly different, so we do not recommend an OtterBox Defender Series for one device being used on the other. 

Here’s the link to the Defender Series for iPad mini 4 right here on Amazon for your handy reference!

https://www.amazon.com/OtterBox-DEFENDER-Case-iPad-Mini/dp/B00Z7T2I54/ref=sr_1_4?crid=2TDHKN2O6CJI9&keywords=otterbox+defender+ipad+mini+4&qid=1575039888&sprefix=otterbox+defender+iPad+mini%2Caps%2C180&sr=8-4

**Q: Can you use an Apple Smart Cover with this case?**
A: No.

**Q: Can't get ipad mini 5 to seat? Any help? Or why it may not be fitting? Thanks**
A: On the back just below the Apple icon you will see some numbers and letters.  That’s your model number.  Now go to Apple and look the model number up and then that will tell you what generation iPad you have. That’s what I had to do to get mine. Then you’ll have to buy your OtterBox for that pacific generation.

**Q: Do you have the same type of case for the iPad mini 6?**
A: Yes

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Otterbox is always a good purchase
*by S***N on 14 December 2021*

Its big, really protective but big, if you had a Defender for a phone u get how much bulk it adds to a device. The hard screen case cover is a bit worrying as it has the stand and some metal that could come into contact with the screen (i always remove the built in screen protector with a Defender case , its only glued on) but it may be designed so this wont happen unless youre being careless. I only use it outside the home and for travel, not yet obvs but I will and im sure it will be as good as every other Otterbox case ive owned (probs about 10 by now)
