OtterBox iPad Pro 13-inch (M4) Defender Series Case - Black

Case was on discount for $62.99 I got 2 one for me and one for my wife for our M5 13 inch. Love it

The OtterBox case is the perfect iPad protection unit. It offers 360* protection removable hard shell that doubles as a stand. The case offers pen charging at the top an storage in the back.

I had high hopes for this case for my new iPad. The case makes the nice lightweight iPad go from seemingly paper light, to heavier than a book. It definitely would protect the iPad from a fall, which is good. But, for the 13 inch size, to add so much extra weight, it was very difficult to manage and use, i tried my best but it is heavy and awkward. The built in screen protector, is nice for protection, but affects the way the Apple Pro Pencil functions. It does not work well on the drawing app Procreate using this case, and I would not recommend it if you are using your iPad for art or writing with your Apple Pencil. You have to press harder with the pencil. The screen cover will definitely dull out your pen tip. I did try to put my own cover on it to make the protective case work, since I do tend to drop things, but it just didn’t work out. It is very overpriced for what it is. The pros: Will be good protection if it falls Nice quality case, thought went into the making and design Good for travel protection wise if in a backpack The cons: Extremely heavy Bulky Difficult to install The screen cover does affect the Apple Pencil Pro and the way it writes. You have to press much harder and it wears down the pencil. Difficult to remove and put back on, time consuming, so if you want the protection of the case at times, to switch out cases to something lighter for home use, that is something else to consider. Overall, i really wanted to like the case/love the case. But it was very hard to use on the iPad. Like i mentioned before, nice for protection especially if you travel, but for every day use, I would not prefer this case. It is also nearly impossible to draw in procreate with the built in screen protector.
