This case works perfect with the Smart Cover, it NEVER comes apart. I haven't found anything better than this. Of course, it won't protect the screen, that's why you should have the Smart Cover. I wanted something thing that would do the job. Just try to be more careful with the iPad. I have dropped my a few times and I have had no problems.

It will protect from scathing on the back but not the front, I use this with Apple's case. But if you really protection in case you drop it then you need a better case.

The case seems sturdy enough to handle what my three and seven year old put it through, so I would recommend it!

After reviewing Apples' support forum, there seems to be little consensus about the potentiality of magnets damaging devices (I'd speculate any device, Apple or other). Small magnets on cases seem to be safe, but warnings are given for "strong" magnets. I loved the idea of this holder, but I'd have to error on the side of precaution and not purchase unless I read an affirmative answer. Everyone else who says "it hasn't damaged my device yet" could be lucky or just biding their time. I have read the the likely damage is data loss, but not permanent component damage. I can't afford either. At best, it seems unknown or uncertain.

Their standard protection plan covers mechanical or electrical failures the occur by normal use. The ADH (accidental damage from handling) is a must it covers spills and drops. If your iPad stopped working they claim to help you file a claim with the manufacture. If the manufacture agrees with the claim and replaces or repairs the iPad square trade says they will cover the cost. If the manufacture refuses the claim square trade says they will still cover and replace or reimburse you the cost of the covered item. I would suggest googling The SquareTrade and reviewing the polices yourself. They explain it slot better in detail. Also make sure you buy the right dollar amount of coverage. Hope this was somewhat helpful.

I did not get a protection plan, I agree with the other people that it is not necessary. I love the IPad! Always dependable.

Unfortunately, I've dropped my iPad in this case. (I've been traveling a lot for work, and travel isn't easy on electronics) If it lands on a corner, the corners shatter and can leave sharp edges. I'm currently looking for a replacement for this reason... But, If something had to shatter, I'm glad it was the case and not the iPad.

Has it been in any kind of case all this time? I have dropped my ipod once, at the gym, and it was on a carpeted floor. It was fine, but I wouldn't want to do that very often.Honestly, I can't say for sure if this case is what you need, but it is pretty protective. Actually, if you really do drop your ipod that much, you might want to consider an Otter-box. I've had those, too, and they might be more appropriate for what you put your ipod through.

Yes it seems to have pretty good protection. The iPad fits tight within a rigged edge surrounding the back side of the case with a nice magnetic cover. I think if dropped it is well protected.

I had the case on my iPad Air, my two year old drops it in the kitchen and the screen cracked.I've had the screen repaired and still use the case on it, but now usage is supervised. :)

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.

To the best of my knowledge, it doesn't cover damage from, say, dropping it or spilling liquid on the it. It covers any breakdown, failure, or even a battery. I've never needed help with self-inflicted damage (so to speak) though so you should check the Apple website just to be sure.

My ipad is in very good shape in this case. The lip of the case protrudes a bit and that is the protection for the edges. I have only dropped it short distances like off the bed once and it was completely unharmed.

Hi Eric, I've had the case since August. It's always in pocket and I've dropped it a number of times and no signs of damage to the case or to my Ipod. It really is pretty tough. Hope this helps. Ron

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!

I am very clumsy when it comes to phones but I haven't dropped it yet (please no jinks) i had it for five days now and I'm just now using the case yesterday for thanksgiving. So i don't know if a good case or note (it's very thin without front screen pertection!!) if you're trying to keep your phone safe I don't think it's a good case to have if you're always dropping your phone like me. But there is a very good case out here called the outterbox. this case seals your whole phone my spouse has one and he dropped it threw it just to test it n it works great. I'll be purchasing one myself tonight I am very clumsy when it comes to phones but I haven't dropped it yet (please no jinks) i had it for five days now and I'm just now using the case yesterday for thanksgiving.

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..

I take mine off every few months to clean my iPad. It is a snug fit, not tight. It can be removed quickly but not easily. You don't want a protective cover to be easily removed or you would constantly putting it back on. (My iPhone cover for example comes off easily and is a pain in the ...). We have several iPads and this is the best case we've had. I've dropped mine several times on the tile with no damage.
