Will this case protect the screen if dropped on a tile floor. Is otter box a better protection?

my child has dropped this but it bounced on a corner, all was well. We discussed carrying procedures, again...I do not know about the comparative issue.

I have an otter box for my phone but not my I Pad. I like it and it gives good protection for that so I don't know. The gripcase was not a good product for us at all, it lasted less than two weeks. (my son is special needs and is very rough) I ended up getting a Lifeproof nuud case. Lifeproof Nüüd Case for iPad 2/3/4 - Black I like this case, it's put up with a lot of drops and bumps and rough handling safely protecting the I pad. As a bonus it is waterproof. We also bought the straps for it and are very pleased with the quality of all. I have an otter box for my phone but not my I Pad. I like it and it gives good protection for that so I don't know.

Yes! It's rubberized on the back thickly and raised concave in the front so unless its thrown onto a point the screen wouldn't touch. I almost had a heart attack when ours was thrown from the high chair onto the tile floor in a surprise tantrum but it was fine. The side loops make it easier to hold than the otter box

This case would protect the iPad if dropped on tile. I don't know re the otter box as a product. The handles on this have a raised profile which also helps protect it, the glass will not hit the floor flush. Hope this helps.

the case is raised about 1/2" around the screen so if it lands flat on the front it will be protected if it lands a little wonky maybe not. We use a screen cover over the screen in hopes that this will be extra protection and all is well after a year of ruff use.

this case is the best protection I have seen for an ipad. I have seen students throw them across the room and drop them from 4-5 feet high and they just bounce and are not injured. (I work with special ed kids)

The concave design will prevent the screen from touching the floor on a drop, the handles around the edge are jutted forward and provide great protection in this manner. We have tile and wood, no danger to our ipad yet!

We have dropped on tile peanty of times she likes to play drop the iPad at the grocery store a lot and so far so good. Hope that helps.

Very protective. I have dropped it several times and it is no worse for wear. No case will protect the screen should I ever drop it in such a way that the screen makes contact with an object. However I will put this case up against the Otterbox Commuter boxes like I used to use any day.

I would get to otter box defender series case with a built in screen. I originally bought the one you're contemplating on buying I never dropped my phone with it on so it may be ok but it doesn't look as durable or protective as the otterbox is but the otterbox cost way too much compared to this one. I'll just say you get what you pay for.

I have the Trident case and it provides adequate protection. I have dropped my phone on concrete and it survived intact. My wife has the Otterbox Defender. It makes her phone bulkier than mine. I think the Otterbox provides more protection. If you work in an office with carpets, I think the Trident works fine for protection. If you work in an area, such as a medical facility or warehouse, that has little carpeting, I think the Otterbox defender is a safer bet.

As far as covering the screen, no. However, the case itself has an overlap on the front of the phone that is raised slightly. If dropped on a flat surface, as mine was, it will prevent the screen from contacting anything. If dropped on anything that is raised, such as a rock, corner of a step, etc., it will not be protected. Hope this helps.

I haven't had a serious drop yet. The case is slick which is worrisome. I bought a Tech Armor screen cover in hopes of extra protection.

Highly unlikely. I have dropped mine twice and it is well protected on the edges. Very high quality case for the money with screen protector compared to what you can purchase elsewhere.

I've dropped mine a few times with no damage to screen. Not hard drops, mostly indoors. A corner drop on concrete would probably break the glass. I really like this case. It's thin, but still gives some protection. I usually use a snap on shell, but I like this because the buttons are easier to feel with this case. Hope that helps.

If it landed on its back I would say yes. The front is a another story . If it landed face first on a floor it might not protect the screen. There is a bit of protection around the front of the case. The Otter Box commuter or defender case would be good if you feel clumsyy.

It's similar but if you drop your phone like I do, Otter Box might be the better way to go. This one was for my daugter & she's happy with it :)

No, but it definitely protects the screen. I have dropped my phone several times face down with this case on and it has kept my screen from making contact with the ground.

The screen should not break no but it is not water proof but a great case otherwise.otter box is the best case to buy and I'm not sure but they may make a water proof case.

To answer your question. The cover is durable enouth from any fall. I already drop it a couple of time without any damage at all. About the screen, the cover as long is close it will protect your screen. I have no problem yet with the case. Is regid enouth. Hope this help

Larissa T. If the phone lands flat on the floor screen side down, the sides of the Luvvitt Clearview Case will hit the floor first - So there is some protection there. When I purchased the case, I also purchased the Luvvitt Extreme Anti-Shock Protection screen cover for added protection for the screen, so I am hoping I am covered. Hope this helps you.

I am not very familiar with the otter box case. A friend of mine has one and from what I've seen his case offers more protection especially if the phone is dropped.

I haven't drop it yet on a hard floor, so I don't know yet if this cover will protect it from breaking the glass. I dropped it on a carpeted area. It didn't break.

This case has protected my iphone when my toddler dropped it on the bathroom tile floor. I thought for sure my screen would have cracked, but after inspection this case saved my phone. The inner shell is hard plastic and the outside is rubber, it acts as a shock absorber. Hope this helps.
