This casing provided maximum protection that you can offer for an Ipad . The case consist of 3 layers of protection ( make it 4 if you included the hard shell stand ) and come with a look that is as cool as a batman gadget. The rubber surface feel nice to touch and provide more grip for you to hold your Ipad . All the button are accessible and it come with it's own screen protector . The only downside to look out will be the mass of the case and the way to access the 30-pin. It is not recommended for those who want to keep their Ipad as light as possible . As for the 30 pin access , you will have to open the lid at the bottom side of the case , but this will expose the lower part of you Ipad to scratches and dust. However, this lid will allow you to use the Ipad dock stand with no problem at all. I will recommended to buy a screen protector, trim it down in size and stick it to the exposed part of the Ipad when the lid is removed , or don't remove the lid .
P.S. Sorry for my poor language.
