Does this case block the IR blaster?

No, there's an opening for the IR blaster. There're total nine openings for microphones, USB port, S-Pen, camera, headset jack, IR blaster, speaker, etc.

Not at all. Flash works just as it would with the case off. However this case does interfere with the infrared that you need to use your phone as a tv remote control.

No, it just keeps it out of the way. Can also just let it dangle if you want to use the flash.

To my knowledge it does not. The shield trigger is narrower then the full size. However they do make a trigger kit for the shield. Lookup Apex Shield DCAEK

yes, we made a cutout for the power button so the IR blaster feature will still work

No, I have not found that it will block the camera on either the iPad 2 or iPad Air (have that brand iPad cover for both units).

It does not effect the camera or flash at all. It takes perfect pictures and nothing is blocked. Love this case.

Yes I think do. I'm not sure what an IR Blaster is but there is a cutout for every hole or raised area. I can charge, have earphones plugged in and manipulate the volume, on/off switch and take out the small disk that gives me more GBs.

No it does not have a cut out for th infrared node I have the clear case and it still works just fine don't know about the other colors.

There is a pseudo cutout for the power button. It's basically a raised power button cover with the top piece of plastic removed so it still provides the ease of use of a raised power button. The IR works really good with the case on.

The IR window is not covered. Below the volume opening, there is a piece of the cover, then another opening for the IR window. I would post a picture of it if I knew how.

Yes the IR blaster is completely useless while inside the case. The double tap gesture to wake the phone and put it back to sleep Dnt respond while in the case, along with any other gestures frm sleep mode.

Yes, it does, but it is sometimes difficult to use because the IR Sensor is behind a tiny hole next to the Power Input Jack.

No it doesn't block the IR port, because the M8 Ir port is built into the power button. So it works perfectly. Fit is very good, (Especially for the price).

Yes it does. But it is not as tight of a fit as the case the k-Bar comes with. It rattles a little. I went to hobby lobby and got some packing Styrofoam. cut a slit in it and now it does not rattle.

No it doesn't. At first I took the tablet out to use the IR blaster, there is no need to. It works perfectly fine in the case.

I guess it doesn't. However, you might break the docking mechanism after you've spent several hours trying to get the protector in place and all the bubbles out when you throw the tablet down in frustration. Good Luck.
