Slide-out Stand SUCKS!!!!
The slide out stand sticks and is very difficult to open and close. You almost have to break it to get it to work.

Sturdy case
Sturdy case, if you use your iPad and environment, that might be a little demanding. I like the back that has good grip. The only negative I would have is the exposed access port for the Apple Pencil Pro. I liked the older model where the pencil was underneath the top cover.

What happened?
I hate it. I give you one star because it does seem protected when the cover is on. But it's so inconvenient. The iPad fits into one part and the other part can be the cover or the easel back. When it's on as a cover, it's almost impossible for me to pry it off. When it's on as the easel back, you can't use the camera. If you just leave it off, there's the problem of keeping up with it. There's not a secure place for the iPencil. The charger cover gets in the way of inserting the charging cord. What were you guys thinking? Especially disappointing because the other Otterbox coves I have bought were super satisfactory. Is it too late to get my money back?

Pencil cover ALWAYS breaks
This is the second defender case I’ve used, the first was with work and now my personal iPad. Both cases the flap that covers the pencil charging space has broken off and won’t slide back into its little hinge ports. Very frustrating!

Good stuff
Case fits and works great. I’m glad it has a built in screen protector, and the stand is definitely better than previous designs.

Good for defense, but has trade offs
Case stand is difficult to return and needs rubberized feet to prevent sliding. Front screen cover gets hazy effect from uneven contact with screen

Best case on the market got even better
New design updates are great! My only complaint is the pencil lid can't be opened with the screen cover attached to the back. Not really a big deal. There is a new pencil cubby built into the screen cover though, which is nice. Near perfection!!

M4 11" iPad case loses pencil charge cover
I like the toughness and the built-in screen protector. The weak link is the separate small piece that covers the pencil charger. It is not very secure and frequently falls off.
