Best iPad Air / iPad 5 Case?

Best case? Wow that depends on so many things. Do you want it waterproof? Shockproof? Are you fashion conscious? What's your favorite color? Etc. etc.

Otterbox is coming out with them:

Look at the LifeProof cases. I use my iPad and iPhone riding a motorcycle in rain, dust, wind, everything. Not a single issue.

I'm a huge fan of LifeProof. And they're customer services is Apple-worthy. I posted a complaint on a really minor issue on their Facebook page on a Sunday. Within an hour, I got a private message asking for my name and address, and they sent out a new part the next day.

I've ridden through some wicked stuff and nothing has happened to either device.

I had INVELLOP case for my iPad 3, and will defenetly go with the invellop for the ipad air. Here is the link and the picture of the case:

iPad Air Case

Not the most attractive, but they are great for gripping if you game a lot, or take the ipad around for music technology, as a recorder/poratable studio, synth etc...

The one i have on my ipad 2 is still going strong, has Microban to keep germs away, and as well as covering all ports, has a built in replaceable screen protector.

I prefer them over the Otterbox cases I have used in the past to be honest. The Otterbox for my Galaxy s3 stretched out and is no good 😟 although the one for my HTC was very nice.

Try the Gumdrop I highly recommend them, spesh if your the outdoor type, they look rugged and are really comfy to hold.

Yeah, I was supprised, but they made the front lip too big, so it just pulls in your jean pocket and over time stretches too big to stay on the plastic inner :/ kinda knocked my confindence in Otterbox, especially as my old HTC Desire case aged so well. Went nice and shiny like used leather 🙂

That looks like a strong case, nice find, I do like my cases to cover all ports though, the Gumdrop one has mesh over the speakers to keep the dust out, think Otterbox do that too ?

I really like the look of Apples own Smart case, but am worried it will damage from rub, I know the smart covers have this problem, or used to anyway.

Anybody able to reposrt on how the Smart covers perform in regards to internal rub on the metal ? I guess it maybe to early to tell ?

Be careful with the Bear Motion cases. I orderd the "Premium Folio case with stand for Apple iPad Air" from Amazon and the edges hung over the sides of the iPad. It looked pretty bad and the top also wouldn't stay in place. Thankfully Amazon has a fantastic FREE return policy so back it went. I also bought from Best Buy the official ipad air case in blue leather, ($79+tax) but it also had a bad fit and appeared to sag in the middle, so I took it back and exchanged it for the smart cover, which fits perfectly. I also have on order from Amazon the "KNOMO London" Ipad Air leather case in Black with a blue interior ($75.99 a $5 savings) . It looks great from the pic's and is worth checking out at www.knomobags.com Grove, @ www.grovemade.com has a unique wooden case that I would love to get, unfortunatly it has a 4 week wait, not sure if thats because its hand made and they are made to order, or if its just super popular.

Here are a few great iPad Air Cases. Some of them are PRETTY great.
