WISH it was better

First off, let me say that my review may be clouded by my own ignorance. I originally bought this for my son to use with his new iPad and the Osmo system he has. for Christmas. However, it wasn't until December 23rd when I set up his new iPad that I didn't realize that this case wasn't designed for the 7th generation iPad. In fact, I spent an embarrassing amount of time fitting this case to fit an oversized iPad before going to Amazon to confirm that it actually did NOT fit. But no harm and no…

Pros
  • Perfect for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Not sure

Amazing durability if you read the other reviews

We've had this case on a 5th gen iPad since October 2019, not only does it fit (perfectly) the iPad, it offers amazing bulk of protection! The case fits the OSMO base perfectly, it is convenient that you can pull down the camera access door and install the OSMO mirror. You're pretty much limited to this case or no case if you want to use OSMO, but for us it's proven surprisingly reliable. When my daughter got her OSMO installed (she was only 7 at the time), I told her that this case offered…

Pros
  • Inspires confidence
Cons
  • I vaguely remember

Save money on bags, cases and sleeves

This is the second item I've bought and it still doesn't fit. It's not even close. I have confirmed the size and version several times. It still doesn't come close. Don't shove it in the body at all. Super disappointment for $50. I was willing to buy a few of these for my school district, but I won't be offering them. I will also be returning all my Osmo games. I'm just so annoyed by their lack of support. There is also no installation video. It shouldn't be difficult at all, but obviously it…

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • Out of style

PLEASE READ BEFORE BUYING!

I had to buy this case so my son with autism could play games without having to take the iPad out of the case. We've taken the iPad out of its case before (it had one) and this resulted in the screen cracking ($300 for a replacement). I was so thankful that Osmo had a case and thought this was the answer to the problem. I was SO WRONG! After buying her case I found out I had to buy a brand new base! I bought both at different times because I couldn't afford a set simply because the case cracked

Pros
  • High marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • Anything I can add?

Garbage Bags, Cases & Covers

Garbage. I am disappointed with the Osmo. This didn't really help. I replaced our original stand with a new one and a new case after two iPads crashed while using the original stand. The new case is complete bullshit. The hinge for attaching the mirror is connected to the body with two thin rubber strips, no thicker than a rubber band. Fall off almost immediately. Tonight our six year old dropped an iPad and the case splintered on the back. It's a miracle the iPad didn't break. I am 100% done…

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Not as thick as other bags

Fragile horrible design doesn't fit

I can't believe I paid $50 for this flimsy piece of plastic. It does not fit the 6th generation iPad, even though it is advertised. The case is technically on the iPad but doesn't fit well enough to provide protection. The case is too small (to the point that it's almost impossible to fit) which pulls the case away from the edge of the tablet and creates gaps between the case and the iPad. Due to the gaps around the edges of the screen, there's no rubber to protect it. So if your kid drops it…

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • Not bad, but...

Expensive iPad case for an already expensive gaming system

TL;DR This works with the new base (as of July 2019) so be sure to check which base you have. This case just adds a thin bezel/edge (1/2 inch) around your iPad that fits into the base of the Osmo and has a cutout that folds back to allow the Osmo Reflector to slide. The bezel also offers additional shock protection around the edges. I'm a big fan of the Osmo Play system (see my other reviews of the awesome starter kit and coding kits). In my opinion this case should come with an iPad base +…

Pros
  • Lots of goodies
Cons
  • No performance
