Having a secure and safe case for your iPad mini 5 could save your device from scratches, scrapes, shattering, and so, so much more. We love the simple look and feel of the Spigen Tough Armor Case. It's not an overly bulky case, but it'll keep your iPad mini 5 protected in the event it slips from your grip — plus, a handy kickstand on the back makes it ideal for travel.
