will this case work for an ipad air 2?

No. There is no 'mute' switch on the Air 2 and the volume buttons have moved slightly. They do not line up with the holes in this case.

Otterbox is currently making a case for the iPad 2 that hasn't been released yet. My guess is that the touch ID won't work with this one, but there may be another reason as well.

Definitely. My kids have used my ipad and I am so glad the otterbox defender is on board.

You won't be able to use the thumb print scanner. This particular otter box case has a piece of silicon covering the home button.

I'm not sure but if I were you I'd go to the OtterBox site and ask your question.

Typically each model of ipad needs specific case due to dimension changes .. in this case the only minor change to depth dimension -ipad air 2 is thinner by .05 inches. (.24 inch for ipad air 2 vs. .29 inches for ipad air ... The lenght and width dimensions are same.https://www.apple.com/ipad/compare/#comparison-chart

No. It's designed for the Air 2. You can check if there's a Ridge for your original iPad.

I only tested with an iPad2. I don't know that an iPad Air would fit securely, considering that it's slimmer than the 2.

Hi Kurt. As the other two people responded, the iPad Air is thinner so it would not fit this case. To get the correct fit, I would definitely purchase one made specifically for the iPad Air.

Hey.. Not sure since i dnt have ipad air 2 but it works great with iPad air.. As long as the length is same i guess it will work with air 2 as well

I'm guessing that it would not as it is advertised for IPad Air, but I'm not positive. There is an Aerb keyboard and case on Amazon for iPad 1,2,3,&4. Good luck on your quest.

This case was purchased for the iPad Air not the iPad Air2. My understanding is the iPad Air2 is about 18% thinner than the first iPad Air. Since the case has a plastic mold that snaps onto the edge of the iPad, I would think that it may not hold on to your device properly. Additionally, I dont recommend this cover because it never really worked in the angled standing position. The slighlest nudge and it flops down flat and doesnt work as a stand. The ridge it sits in is not deep enough to hold it in place in my opinion. Hope this helps.

I don't own an iPad Air but if the air is similar in size to iPad 1, 2 , it should fit.

Yes this will fit an iPad 2,3 & 4, which is what I have. This case will not fit the iPad Air, which is smaller than its predessors.

I don't believe it will fit. The case needs to be specifically for the ipad2.

I expect not, the iPad Air 2 is 1.2 mm shorter, which might be okay, but the Air 2 is 16.2 mm narrower than the iPad 2 through 4. Too bad, I love the one I have for our iPad 2.

I use it for my iPad 4, I do not have an Air so I can't say if it would fit it or not. Sorry to not be more help.

Yes it will! I actually bought two different ones and my son is using the other one for the iPad Air. If you are interested I would be happy to sell it to you! Contact me via my email: judin6@gmail.com. Thank you!

fits the iPad air , should have no problem with air 2, or any version of iPad. Pad just rest in frame nothing is clamped.

You mean the Ipad Air? Yes it will fit; I have one and also the case. It's a good snug fit.

I have an iPad2 and it fits perfectly. The iPad Air is slightly smaller. I think it would fit fine. Check http://www.apple.com/ipad/compare/ and judge for yourself.

No it would be to thick the iPad Air is thin and would slide around, type in survivor case for iPad Air 2 it will show the one that fits.
