I noticed that the protective casing weighs just under 1lb-does that weigh down the iPad? I currently have a life-proof case and it makes it extremely

The shipping weight of the case, including packaging is around 13 ounces, if you take out the packaging, the case is about 11 ounces. It does add some weight, but it is definitely a lot lighter than many of the cases. You can hardly feel the difference, while at least I don't. So weight should not be a real concern in my opinion.

I have only dropped it a couple of times. Both times nothing happened to my iPad and it ran & operated fine. NOt sure how often you can drop it, but it seems to protect it ok.

I have a 2nd generation Ipad and I feel its a little heavy for the Tail. You have to form the tail in a position where it'll hold it up but even then it'll lean or drop.

I have the logitech keyboard folio for my ipad 3. It weighs 1lb 6.4 oz without the ipad in it. With the ipad, it weighs 2lb 13.8 oz. That's a little heavy but I like the stability and feel of a secure case. I've never dropped it, but I do believe this would definitely protect your device if dropped. I also have one for my iPad mini.

Im not sure what the weight of the case is. But I love it! I feel so secure when placing it in a bag there is padding on the edges as well as the front and back of case. But what makes this padding different is that its a denser padding, so when i squeeze it it doesn't have as much squish to it like other padded cases. Excuse all the funny wording!

Yes it is true. It is not heavy at all and the kids actually love it because they would carry it by the handle all the time .But my older grand kids would take the other cases off that I had for my iPad before I bought this kaycase..They all love it. The case is light as feather itself.Dawn C. said on December 11, 2013 | Edit I forgot to mention all my grand kids are 2 years old and up to 12 years old. The two year old carries it from one room to the next .

It's pretty light. Maybe only a couple pounds. It doesn't add much weight at all to the iPad

Will this work with a Life Proof case for an iPad? The responses are all over the board. I purchased others and they won't work...the plastic white coating is too thick.

It offers almost zero protection against falls. In fact, I could argue that the extra weight makes it worse than an iPhone with no case, since more weight means more kinetic energy when it does fall.

I don't know the exact weight, but it is not heavy at all. Does not add much, if any weight to the iPad itself. I absolutley love this case. Hope this helps.

It isn't too heavy. I haven't weighed it, but it doesn't add significant weight to the iPad itself. Still light enough to throw in a bag or carry with a stack of books.The case is built to fit the keyboard- without it, there is extra space and the magnetic "snap" doesn't connect to hold it closed. It still holds the iPad just fine without the keyboard. The keyboard is just attached to the case by magnet.

I have only dropped my I pad about 2 foot distance, and it protected it 100%. It is a really good case and does keep it 100% protected . The down side ( if it is a down side) is that it makes a very thin I pad thicker. For me, that is perfectly fine. If I where to buy a new I pad, I would buy this case again. Hope that helps.

I have it on a ipad1 that belongs to my 4 year old...Needless to say she has dropped it endless times in parcking lots or when getting inside the car and nothing wrong had happened, ipad survives after all!

The case weighs 4 ounces. The only thing I would like to add is that when opening the case, it will sometimes turn on iPad and sometimes it will not. Also, if you do purchase case take a plug(toast coffee pot) and push out the on/off button. Hope this helps your decision.

I have dropped it but usually when I am sitting and the fall is not so dire. However, I find the protective cover to be one of the best I've had. Even if it falls directly on the screen, enough of a buffer is in place from the outer cover to shield it from touching any surface. It has a soft rubber case that is covered entirely by a hard cover case. Based on my own experience I would recommend it.

Yeah. I love the way it completely encloses the ipad so that I don't have to worry about anything. And when I drop it the case rarely "swings" open as it falls. So I'm never worried about damaging the screen.

It is extremely heavy, can be bolted down and also has a lock and key to secure the iPad in place. Yes it feels safe.
