Decent movie

Verified Purchase:Yes
Wife bought and it was better than expected but a bit predictable in that the female protagonist is a bit too much of the stereotype-suffering woman, imposed upon by the oppressions of men. It would have been more interesting if she was empowered by her own dubious morals and questionable compromises and had to make choices that would build her character instead of the trope of “be righteously avenged.”

This adapts easily and is pretty helpful with software patches but be aware that the standard iOS doesn’t permit saving material except for pics and tunes.

Almost there...

The device is compact, easy to store, save for protecting the lightning cable. A protective box should have been included.
With phones, it plug-in-plays like a charm, but with a 2017 12" iPad Pro, it took a bit of forcing to get the APP to operate. Though I have got it running, it will now transfer movies, pics, or music, but not PDFs or Docs yet. I've been emailing tech support, and for a month promised instructions on how to transfer these files, but I'm still waiting.
Someday my instructions may come in...

Protect your 12.9-inch iPad Pro with this OtterBox Defender Series case. The synthetic rubber exterior shields your device from bumps and drops, and the screen protector buffers your touch screen from scratches and dings without affecting the clarity of the screen. This OtterBox Defender Series case includes a stand that doubles as a screen cover during transport.

Great support tool for an iPad. Good protection, pencil slot, and even a built in easle. A bit pricey but superior to any other protective covers that I have see.
Attractive but rugged protection.

-pretty good but lost potential
on February 3, 2019
Posted by: Gadfly

Verified Purchase:Yes
Great little pad. I’m not a real tablet user, prefer computers, but this is less clunky and awkward than most with which I’ve worked. It has good potential.
A real missed opportunity was to not make this as useful for the consumer as it could have been. There is no SD card slot and the only adaptors offered by Apple permit transfer of JPEGs only to the device from an SD. No USB or external media is supported because of on-board software blocks imposed by Apple. No PDF, DOC, or other files can transfer to and from the unit with the Apple adaptor. The company has not provided USB nor SD slots and blocked with proprietary software any direct access with these media types, even if an adaptors is used. Third party external media can overcome this but it’s not inexpensive and a bit disappointing that after paying a premium price for this tablet, money must be paid to overcome the deliberately orchestrated shortcomings of the tool. Apple is more interested in directing customers toward their pay-for-Cloud storage than in meeting the needs of the customers. This is too expensive alternative to other tablet choices to have such an imposed limitation. Not everyone can, or wants, to use the iCloud, and other software limits even block AirDrop or direct connection-communication to some of their own laptops, including some MacBook Pros. The company’s values of Thinking Differently and being consumer responsive have slipped. Disappointing.
So it is a good tool but purposely limited by the manufacturer, requiring rescue of third party purchased items. Be aware that an added cost to the iPad will be any external drive storage or back ups. You have to look to others to make up for this deliberate abandonment of the market opportunities by Apple.
A missed opportunity to provide a valuable, comprehensive consumer experience.
