Would this dock work with the OtterBox APPLE PRESERVER IPHONE 5/5S or the Griffin Survivor All-Terrain for iPad mini 3?

Hello N.C. The OtterBox and Griffin cases are too thick for the charging tip to effectively reach the charging port.

No. While the Lightning connector itself is adjustable, the lightning connector itself isn't long enought to connect to anything with a bulky case. It works well with a slim line case though.

The Otter case I bought didn't work with this dock. I bought a different holster and just dock the phone now..

No, it won't work with any Otterbox style case or any case that covers the whole iPad Mini. The Makayama mount has a very tight fit, But it will work with the apple magnetic cover, I've tried it with my iPad mini and didn't have any problems.

The dock is strictly for iPhone legacy connector. I use the USB connector on the amplifier for iPhone 5 and iPad.

I don't have the otter box for the iPad, but do on my phone. The survivor case for my iPad has worked very well. My kids have dropped it several times and the iPad has survived with no problems. Hope this helps!

Great idea! This is my only grip about the dock, thus far. The Otterbox Defender and Commuter are definitely not compatible.

I just used the Fidelio 3000 dock this morning using an iPhone 4 with its Otterbox on. I had to tip the connection forward a little to attach the iPhone and then propped it up with a small piece of foam between the phone and the Fidelio. A little bit of hassle, but a lot less than taking the Otterbox off every time I want to use it! It should work the same with the Fidelio 3010.

I haven't tested it myself as I don't have any current gen Apple products with the new connector. I imagine that it would work if you have an adapter. The dock itself has the old (larger) connector.

We have a number of iPad Airs that fit in the ports with a Griffin Airstrap case. It also works fine with the Apple case. Some of the third party cases (Snugg) are a bit too wide to comfortably fit in the ports.

I have this dock for my iPhone 5S with an Otterbox Commuter case on and it didn't fit at all :/ Had to remove both the hard and soft case to get it to charge.

Yes. There isn't much this dock wont work with. They use pretty much the same connector in all their products.

I bieve do. Aren't they the same size ? It's a really good strap. If it doesn't fit you can return it no problem. I have a handicap brother who uses his iPad for speech and the strap allows him to go thru his day and not lay it down. He has the griffin survivor on his iPad.

It will charge the iPad mini, but the dock may not be able to hold its weight as the dock scaled for iPhone 5.

I have this & it fits my iPad Mini with the OtterBox Defender series case. Then I changed it out for a LifeProof Nuud & surprisingly, this still fits. I'm thrilled this works so well with multiple case sizes. FYI, This will still work even without a case, due to the type of elastic bands used.

Yes, it does work with my iPad mini just fine. Unfortunately, it will not sit on the dock with a case on it. However, since the back of this unit also has a USB port, I just plug in my USB to lightening connector and charge/listen to it that way. I hope that helps.

Not sure about Otterbox, but it will not work with LifeProof case... iPhone needs to be out of the case to sit in dock.

It works with the Otterbox and should work with their own case. Griffin is a well renown company when it comes to Apple Licensed products, don't let these other "reviewers" fool you. My cable worked perfectly, the only reason I don't have it anymore is because it got lost during a move (it's surprisingly easy to misplace a 3m cable.)
