Last week I blogged about the Samsung Tab 4 8" that I bought from Amazon over the Black Friday weekend last year. Together with the Tab, I bought an Otterbox Defender Series Case for it. I am a fan of the Otterbox. I have blogged about the Otterbox casing before and the Defender is one of the best. It comes with a 2-layer protection and, on top of that, it comes with a multi-purpose cover which acts as a 3rd layer. I am using a similar product for my iPad2.
Features:
- Robust, 3-layer protective case withstands drops, bumps and shock.
- Built-in screen protector guards against scratches.
- Port covers keep out dust and debris.
- Cover doubles as a kickstand for hand=free media viewing.
The unboxing photos:

| Package arrives from Amazon. |

| Comes with the case on the left and the cover on the right. |

 |
| On the left is the silicone layer. On the right is the kickstand cover. |
 |
| The Tab 4 goes into the plastic case. On the Samsung tab, there is a nice chrome edge all around it, which is hidden by the plastic case. |
 |
| With the Tab in the plastic case, the silicon goes next. |
 |
| The silicon provides a 'bumper' protection around and underneath the tab. It gives a snug fit. This, to me, is the important feature of the case as it protects the corners. |
 |
| The outer cover provides a stand for the Tab. |
 |
| Another view of the cover. It is similar to the iPad2 cover. |
 |
| The cover to the charging port could have been better. It opens towards the reader, causing a bulge in the silicon. It would have been better if it is opened outwards away from the reader. |
