The best iPad cases are a worthwhile investment for most iPad users since they can offer both peace of mind and added functionality. As well as protecting your treasured tablet, some iPad cases double as a stand, which makes it easier to watch media on your tablet, and some include a keyboard, which can allow you to use your iPad as a mini laptop alternative. And sometimes they can look pretty stylish too.

There's quite a lot to consider when choosing the right iPad case: its functions, sturdiness, design and price. We've taken all of these factors into consideration when compiling the list below based on our long experience of using, reviewing and testing iPads over more than a decade.
