The New Otterbox iPad 2 Case – Protection Doesn’t Get Tougher Than This
Similar in functionality to the Defender Series for the original iPad, the new case for iPad 2 incorporates a 20% lighter design for increased portability. First, a clear, hi-impact polycarbonate shell embraces the device with inner coring and memory foam pads. A rugged, black silicone jacket provides shock and bump protection, while plugs keep the headphone jack, silent/screen rotation lock and 30-pin connector free of dust and dirt when not in use.
A removable polycarbonate screen shield keeps the Multi-Touch display pristine when on the go and an integrated viewing stand is built into the shield, providing the perfect typing angle or upright position.
All device features, including the back camera and volume rocker, remain fully functional. Color options for the Defender Series for iPad 2 will be available soon.

“For a device as versatile as the iPad 2, maximizing protection without sacrificing portability is key,” said OtterBox Founder and CEO Curt Richardson. “From its light-weight design to the integrated viewing stand, the level of protection and functionality of our newest Defender Series is impressive.”
