I’m really good at dropping my iThings, and that’s why I buy Speck cases. I have dropped both these devices on tile floors uncountable times. No damage. Worth every penny. (I went cheap for my iPod Touch case a long time ago, and shattered the glass within two weeks.)

My iPad has been cradled in a Speck Balance Folio since the day I got it. In fact, I waited until Speck made a case for the 2019 iPad mini before I purchased the tablet. (I’ll admit that case 1 got super sloppy after 12 months so it’s in its second case.)

My iPhone is in a Presidio Grip case that’s indigo with hot pink highlights. MyGuy carefully razored off enough highlights to fit my PopSocket on to the back.

This post brought to you with no affiliate links, but having just sailed my iPad out of my fingers and eight feet across the dining room face down on the floor.

...I think they're worth the investment -- ~US$50, often available from Best Buy. Be sure to get the exact fit: the back of the case snugs tight against your tablet. The wonderful thing is the sides of the case are slightly deeper than the iPad's. When you drop your tablet face down, these higher sides take the brunt of the drop, protecting the screen.
