Does it protect screen if iPad is dropped on a hardwood floor?

Probably not but it would depend on how it hit the floor. I think the screen protector is more for preventing scratches than for drop protection. For that you would need a case or cover.

Yes. My daughter has dropped it a couple of times and it's still in tact. She also has a screen protectant as well.

Yes it does protect very well .. my son is 3 and has dropped it down the steps thrown up on it and dropped it on concrete nothing ever happened to ipad or case.. my daughter is 1 and she is not gentle at all with the ipad the case protects from her abuse. Plus if you every have any issues griffin warrenty is great they have replaced the stand for me when it broke case was fine but they shipped me a whole new case and all.. just keep you proof of purchase for warrenty..

Hi Rick, Unfortunately we dropped out iPad and it didn't stop the screen smashing. We now have a Griffin case. Sorry for the late reply have been travelling and no wi-fi.

It has limited protection so no it doesn't protect the screen if it were to fall face down.

It claims it does, but one fall on a carpeted area and the screen cracked!!!

This case does not provide much protection from falls, if that is your concern. If you drop your iPad with this case, your screen will most probably crack. This will protect you iPad from getting scratches and minor dings. The main benefit for me is it gives me a secure grip on the mini, which I found the smooth finish to be quite slippery.

It will prevent the screen from getting scratches. It will not interfere with the functionality of the phone. It doesn't do anything to prevent physical damage to the phone caused by a drop. You would need to purchase a protective case to provide that functionality.

No, it does not! It comes up around the edges of the Ipad and does protect it that way!!

Yes and no. It has a lip on it to help to try to prevent a shattering screen, but it all depends on how the phone is dropped. The screen is exposed.

No, but when dropped nothing happens to the screen because it bounces so the screen is protected.

A bit. It'll protect some and keep the screen off the surface, but if the impact is hard enough the screen would still crack.

There is no direct protection over the screen, but the padded case does protect from any damage due to dropping.

This case does not cover the screen. However the corners are raised by its gummy covering so if it falls its less impact so your screen will not directly hit the floor. I don't think you would need a screen protector, but if the added protection makes you feel better do it.

This is a silicone material. It is enough sturdy to be placed on Wood floor or on top of a table with out falling by it self. But Is not hard enough to protect it from impacts. My son fell down with his ipad and the screen is cracked. I bought it bc it was cute and easier to grab it by my 3y.o. son. After replacing the screen I will buy a super strong case. This is cute, fun and easy to hold but not strong enough to prevent from braking. My oldest son has a Ipad4 with a very hard case that makes the ipad heavier (of course) but ipad fell down 20 times and is like in a new condition. :/ I hope this helps....

Well ... My 2 year old tosses the iPad mini around. The screen stays safe & does not touch the ground because of the padded protection around the iPad.However, if it is thrown and lands on the corner of the sofa or bed, the screen is exposed & can get damaged. Although, that's quite rare & overall it protects the iPad pretty well.

It does not have a built in cover that remains over the screen. However, the front of the case (also the stand) No, protects the screen well when hand carrying and storing the iPad in a bag. Also, the borders of the back of the case sit 1-2 mm above the screen reducing the likelihood of direct impact to the screen during a fall.
