Disappointing New Design, Stellar Customer Service
Never thought I’d leave a negative review for an OtterBox product.
I’ve been a long-time customer and have purchased numerous Defender Series cases over the years. After 25+ years as a police officer—juggling multiple work and personal phones—I’ve always trusted OtterBox for top-tier protection. Until now, I’ve never had an issue. Their durability and performance have always been second to none.
Unfortunately, the new Defender Series case for the iPhone 16 Pro has a significant design flaw. There’s no protective covering around the new camera control button, which leaves part of the screen surface and right side of the phone exposed. The very first time I dropped the phone, it landed directly on that vulnerable area. Fortunately, the screen protector absorbed the impact and saved the screen from damage.
That said, OtterBox’s customer service remains unmatched. They’re U.S.-based, incredibly helpful, and genuinely understanding—a breath of fresh air in today’s world of automated systems and outsourced support. They worked with me to find a practical solution and a replacement case.
Despite the design issue, I remain a loyal customer. OtterBox continues to stand out for their service and commitment to their customers. This is exactly the kind of company you want to do business with.

OtterBox Defender IPhone 16 Pro
The case is well built but it is heavy and I also feel the size of the sides are thicker than I had wanted.The other issue is the website is deceiving. I really looked it over before clicking buy.And to my surprise it was in American funds that added $50 to the order. Next time. I just go into a store I guess.

Disappointed iPhone 16 Pro Defender poor design
I've been using Otterbox for every iPhone I've ever own. So disappointed in the design for the iPhone 16 Pro with the camera button cut out. I am prone to drop my phone alot so I spend the extra money on a case to give my phone the extra protection it will need. However, that exposed camera button area will make my phone vulerable to break in that area. Most of Otterbox competitors have that area protected. Will have no choice but to return and start using a case from a competitor.

Great but Flawed
The area where the case is feels safe. I haven’t dropped my phone but I feel like it would be safe on the back and sides. However, due to the 16pro side button, that area is SO vulnerable. I have a screen protector that cracked right at that point and again I haven’t dropped it at all. I’m not even sure if the screen itself is broke or not, but I feel design-wise they’d do well to protect that area

This is my first experience with an OtterBox case. It's the first case I've owned that makes me happy every time I pick up my phone! I love the design, the high quality, the 2 tone colors, the port protection, and most importantly the feel of the grip. Yes, the texture of the grip is outstanding. It's a joy to use.

Save your money don’t buy the monthly insurance plan pay a fair price for this phone protector and I guarantee it’s good at least for one year. Compare the prices to Apple monthly it’s crazy. I’ve had these protectors for years. I’ve dropped my phone anyway. Possible on the floor in the dirt and war and I’ve had many of these every time I get a new phone I order a new one before it arrives.

User issues and terrible customer service
I am highly disappointed in my overall purchase with OtterBox hundreds of dollars and needing to exchange one phone case that wouldn’t fit the phone as it was the incorrect purchase but could never get an answer. When I called their customer service, every single time I was 30th to 40th in line and had an estimated wait time of 45 minutes to a hour. Tried reaching out online and nothing. To top it off, the defender is not really a well built case for users and in particular the issue is when you’re trying to drop down your notifications on your phone at the top it doesn’t allow that because the cover is too thick and it overlaps the ability to pull down your phone notifications easily. Not happy Otterbox and big fan of your small town vibes in FC but please try to be better on the customer service front.

Average but coverage is lacking
Offer decent protection but very disappointed in the Camera Control coverage. many other cases have a way to at a minimum protect the area, but OtterBox chose to just create a massive section of their case to be removed. This in my opinion leaves a very large unprotected edge to the phone, which isn’t acceptable. Much less expensive cases offer the same protection and better design over the camera control button. A returning the case for this reeason.

Otterbox iPhone 16 pro
The phone case itself is well made and what I would expect from Otterbox. The holster/belt clip needs improvement. The clip is flimsy and it seems that I constantly have to make sure the phone is clipped in otherwise it falls out of the holster when walking and when I get in and out of a car. On several occasions the phone has fallen out in the car without me knowing.

New Phone, New Case
I really like this OtterBox case. I was worried it might feel bulky, but it fits easily in my pocket. The non-slip rubber also makes it easy to hold. This is almost the perfect case, except for the size of the cut out for the camera button. While I understand the need for access so I can use the Camera button, it seems the cutout is larger than necessary, and that cutout space makes it difficult to put my phone in my squeeze grip car holder.

Exposed edge for the camera button leaves little be desired about the protection of the device.

Another great OtterBox case!
I only gave it 4 stars because of how I like to wear my phone in the holster. I prefer the holster to be on my right hip because I am right handed. I have always kept my phone there horizontally with the top facing forward, so when I take it from the holster I can bring it right up to my ear to talk. However, partly due to the design of my iPhone 16 Pro, it does not feel secure in the holster in that orientation. I had to put it with the bottom of the phone facing the front, which forces me to have to flip it around as I remove it from the holster to use the phone. That is less of an OtterBox issue, and more of an iPhone issue.

Otter Box Defender is all I use
The OtterBox Defender is a well built phone case. I have owned many others through the years and it has protected my phones after dropping them. Some people complain about the open button that is not covered by the rubber case. I don’t think it is a deal breaker, because it would have to land perfectly in line, with that gap in the case, on a small stone or other protrusion to maybe do any damage. Be aware, if you buy after market screen protectors, the camera lens protector, that is one square piece that covers all three lenses, may not fit through the opening in the case. I had to buy the three individual lens covers, which fit perfectly. I will always continue to use and recommend OtterBox.
The case also works well with magnetic chargers.

Super case!
This is the second OtterBox I’ve had. The first was for my IPhone 14pro. It was different - more designer than protective in the Symmetry line. But still a good case. The new case I just got for my 16Pro is a heavier duty case with a grip texture. The DEFENDER PRO MAGSAFE IPHONE 16 PRO in DENVER DUSK and I love it! Although, it’s heavier duty, it’s still sleek and good looking and probably more protective than my first case from OtterBox.

iphone 16pro defender case
I hesitated to rate 3 instead of 2 but otter box has always been good for me in the past. I wanted to like it but the dealbreaker for me after I had it in my hand was the cutout for the camera button. Corners on either side of it were very clunky and no border to guard that inch or so of the screen left to much to chance for breakage in my mind. 2 layers of case yet an open area. Felt not 100% protected. Sent it back.

My husband, son and I just upgraded to iPhone 16 Pro and Pro Max phones about a week ago. We each purchased Otterbox Defenders for them and they did not disappoint! I was a little concerned about the camera button opening after reading some reviews, but it doesn’t seem to be an issue for the overall integrity for the case. Every iOS device we’ve owned (from the iPhone 5, 7, SE, 11PM, to iPods, Apple Watches and numerous iPads) has been perfectly protected by Otterbox products and I feel confident that this case will live up to that standard.

Not enough protection. I was looking for complete protection and I guess otterbox will not make its tried and true total protection case since I’ve been on the list for months!

Not Reversible
A case that pairs with a holster should fit securely into the holster regardless whether it’s oriented backward or forward, up or down, left or right. But the Defender only sits in its holster snugly when facing outward, and only in one direction.

Same great overall protection with one flaw
Love Otterbox cases. My phones have always come out pristine after years but this one has a flaw. The case is actually wearing through the finish on the phones trim where the camera notch touches it. Definitely a miss.

Not what they used to be…
My husband has been an otterbox defender series customer since the beginning of iPhones. Although they slowly faded on the rugged part over the years, they really completely dropped the ball on the iPhone 16 pro defender case as there is no “rugged” protection (or any protection, really) near the camera button, which leaves the screen/edge of the phone in this location completely exposed. He returned the case and purchased a pelican, which offers the same rugged protection that he used to love from otterbox defender.

A step down from previous models
This new model has a few annoying changes from my previous model. First, it no longer has a tether point which would allow a lanyard to be attached. Secondly there is a gap on the edge protection on the right side where the new camera slider is located. A drop which lands at that point will surely cause damage.

defender pro 16 case
wish the outer rubber case was a more rugged thicker case for the heavy abuse i put this phone and case thru out in the construction field. Also, the holster isn't as rigid as the i phone 5 I used to own as the locking clip and the phone position in which the phone snaps into the holster has the front lcd screen facing outwards which when moving in tight quarters has a high percentage that tthe screne will get damaged even with a screen protector

Not what it used to be.
Disappointed with the changes from previous Defender models. The exposed edge where the camera slide is tactilely and protection wise bothers me. I understand it may be ok for drop tests on a flat surface but Murphy says if I'm on rocks or drop something on it, that's where it will hit. Also don't care for the fact that it only latches in the holster in one direction. Still having to put it in twice most of the time because it's backwards the first time.

I’m a person who keeps my iPhone until it is no longer supported by Apple, so it’s important to have a case that can safeguard it for quite a few years. This case does that, and I am immensely pleased with it; the quality is unparalleled.

The phone case feels good in the hand, I like the new improved texture on the back and sides ????.
The only thing that’s weird, is that exposed port, on the right for the camera zoom, but that’s a phone issue so you can’t blame otter box. But other than that, I’d say I would definitely recommend it to protect your phone for sure.

Nice case zero notch protection
The case itself is nice and protects the phone. Except for the notch cut out for the camera button on the side. I had this phone 4 days and dropped it from my hand to the floor. The screen protector was immediately cracked at the notch. There is simply zero protection at the notch cut out. I will be getting a different case as I keep phones 2-3 years and will not be replacing screen protectors on a constant basis.

This OtterBox Defender is only one of the many I have purchased for multiple iPhones over the years. I have never had any damage to any of the cellphones even though there were several times they were accidentally dropped on very hard surfaces.

Improved defender case.
I’m most please by the addition to the defender series case with the addition of the mag safe. I’ve had several defender cases throughout the years and the little cover piece for the charging port always seems to wear out first, often falling out and getting lost. With this new case, I don’t have that problem as I was able to transition to MagSafe charging. My only concern is the little notch where the new camera button is. I know I’m going to drop the phone and something will eventually break that button, but I know why it’s there, as the button is touch sensitive.

Just not the same
I just upgraded to the 16 Pro from the 11 Pro Max and I also had a Defender case on my 11 Pro Max… but this new Defender case for the 16 Pro just feels cheaper and less protective. The protective bezels don’t feel as raised as they used to be and there isn’t even a protective button for the new camera button. The camera button is just exposed with ZERO protection. I understand that designs change over time… but this case just doesn’t have that classic Otterbox feel that I came to expect. Bummer.

The otter box goes around the camera button on the right side so it leaves that space of 1 1/2 inches of the screen exposed.
The volume on and off button is not covered so it is easily touched I have Otter boxes since they first came out. I would trust no other cover for my phone

Abysmal product compared with previous cased
I have had a slew of otterbox defender series cases over the years (iPhone SE, 7, 8, 12 and now 16) and this is by far the worse case out of the bunch. The clip was not included with the phone after I added it as a “free gift” and I had to talk to support through their AI bot to get the clip shipped. The actual case doesn’t have a spot for the holster to clip into, so my case has a dent in the rubber where it sits. If you don’t want the clip, the new button for the 16 is left completely exposed meaning one drop at the wrong angle will shatter the phone regardless of the $70 case.

As always, I love the otter box defender! The one I had before bounced off the roof of my car while I was going 55 mph. My phone survived without any damage! So when I got a new phone, I knew I wanted another otter box defender. Worth the money! The only complaint I gave is I can’t fit the lens protector plate on and have the case fit over the top.

Compatibility Issue - iPhone 16 Pro Cameras
The Defender series always provides good, sturdy protection for the iPhone if one is okay with the tradeoff of weight and bulk. However, the Defender is not compatible with standard camera lens covers for the iPhone 16 Pro. In order to use the Defender with the 16 Pro, one must use individual lens covers; not the standard cover that is placed on the whole section.

I gave this item 4 stars because: 1) It's hard to access the charging port when the harness is attached to the phone (not a problem with my previous Otterbox cases). 2) The phone can only be clipped onto the harness in one direction. Otherwise, the case is wonderful!

Defender Pro for iPhone Pro 16
I love Otterbox phone covers. In my opinion they are the absolute best in protection. As with my previous phone covers I really like this one as well. I do have two little points I’d like to make though. First of all I wish they could have designed it to cover the new camera button. Secondly, I would like for the cases to go back to being a little thicker the way they were on the iPhone 11’s and older. Mainly thicker or taller on the front to protect the screens and/or front of the phone a little better. They are still very very good cases though and I fully endorse them.

The case itself is fantastic and does a great job protecting the phone. However, with the lack of structural support near the camera button I’ve noticed that on more than one occasion the phone pops out of its case in that corner while in my pocket. Aside from that it’s a phenomenal case.

Real Tree Edition
Case is good but the only complaint I have is with the real tree edition… the back part puffs out because of the silicon that’s used it’s a small annoyance but enough to have me stick to the black color way.

I like this Otterbox better than previous on because it doesn’t slide through my hand. It also has a very tight fit for the outside layer. I like the clip on because it keeps my screen safe while hiking and can attach to my backpack for easy access.

I love this iPhone 16 Pro phone case! It feels good in the hand, giving me a good grip on my phone. Works great on my mag charger too. I have always used otterbox defender phone cases on all my past phones and will continue to use them. I’ve dropped my phone numerous times and not a scratch or crack ever! Also very fast shipping!

Just shy of perfection
Overall this is your standard Otterbox. Offers almost great protection, grip and coverage. Where it lacks is at the camera button, leaving about 1" entirely exposed. You wouldn't think this was such a bad thing, but on a previous phone mine slipped off the console, hit the seatbelt buckle and hit right on the edge cracking the screen. You know that millimeter between the glass cover and the edge of the phone, yep CRACK all the way across the screen. What are the odds that this would happen twice? Fingers crossed! With that exception it offers pretty good coverage but definitely needs improvement.

Sturdy Case , but Open to the Elements!
I have been using the Otter Box cell phone cases for a long time now and still think that they are one of the best cases on the market.
They have provided excellent protection for my cell phones for many years.
However, in my opinion the newest designs are not as protective as those in the past. I do not understand why they got rid of the front panel which protected the front of the screen from dirt and dust.
Now my 16 PRO iPhone is open to the elements and the stick on screen protectors are no substitute for a closed in front panel.
I hope that Otter Box will consider giving the option for customers to purchase a case with a front cover other than just the water proof case model that is not affordable for most customers.

Great product. Hold my iPhone firmly to my belt when I work. The screen is protected. This is my 4th otterbox and I will get another the next time I update. I bought a similar produce from another company and found the it didn’t fit tightly on the mount and the buttons didn’t fit properly against the phone to work properly.

New cutout needs to be enclosed by otterbox
It is a good product for the 16 pro, however they need to rework the cutout for the new button. It should be enclosed by otterbox just like it encloses all of the other buttons. My wife dropped her phone from the car seat to the floorboard and cracked the safety glass cover because it hit right at the new button cutout

If you owned an otterBox defender, it’s not the same thing as they sell today. It’s just a wraparound case like any other no more protective screen for the real working hard person.Screen can easily chip. Where fully exposed. It showed up. I returned it and it cost me 15$ shipping.

iPhone 16 Pro Case & Belt Clip
I have always purchased Otterbox cases for all my IPads, IPhones since IPhone 4E in 2010. At the worst rubber around case stretched out a little. No mater how I put it on my case it never ever fell out by it self, even when it clicked in a little off the tap. This case I Purchased at Consumer Cellular is not worthy of the legendary name Otterbox. Case and belt clip just don’t work and my $1,299.00 Phone just keeps falling and falling and only locks on one way. What a hassle!? Time to try an other brand after a decades of being a loyal customer. What a same.?

It is strong to protect your phone. But, it is very awkward. The camera space is too large. I grab my phone and the camera button is where I always grab, I can no longer use my stand up charger. The case is too thick. No to the Defender model. My kids bought Serenity, but they cracked on the second day of use.

Lasts a long time!
After several years of using, I finally needed to replace my otterbox. Went straight to my local Verizon store where I was surprised to find an in-stock otterbox for my five year old I-phone. The fit was perfect, quality was consistent with expectations, and I plan for my new otterbox to serve me for another five-plus years.

Defender 16 Pro case needs update
I have relied upon and have enjoyed Otterbox for many years. It was the only phone protector for me. When I ordered and received the 16Pro defender case with clip, like every year, I was surprised and saddened to find that in my opinion the case is lacking the attention to detail I have come to expect. The Defender case doesn't cover the edge of the phone where the new camera button is on the right lower side of the phone. Before I received the Otterbox case I had another case temporarily that did have it covered and I dropped the phone and my glass protector cover cracked right there. I said to myself that i'm glad I had the glass on or it could have been my phone display glass and the Otterbox Defender case would not allow this to happen. So now I wait and see if Otterbox does a little research and maybe they will have an updated version soon. I will always buy Otterbox over any brand.

Best Way to Protect the iPhone
I have always had an Otter Box for my iphones and despite dropping the phone I haven't had any problems. Otter Box protects my phone and the belt holster keeps in close when I am wearing jeans or khakis and need to have quick access. The belt holster also doubles as a phone holder on flights.

It’s not the case, it’s the phone . . .
After upgrading from an iPhone SE to the iPhone 16 Pro, I needed to get a new Otterbox Defender case and holster. Unfortunately, due to the design of the new iPhone, I have to make adjustments to the way that I secure the phone to the holster. With my previous case, it did not matter which direction that I placed the case in the holster. With the “indent” on the right side of the 16 Pro phone, there is only one way to securely attach the case to the holster. Nothing major but definitely a learning curve to make sure that the case doesn’t detach from the holster.

Needs two belt clip slots
The case itself is good, but it only has a slot on one side to put it in the belt clip it comes with. Which means you have to make sure that slot is facing up, otherwise it falls out. I guess if you carry your case on the left side you probably won’t have this issue, but I carry my case on the right side. I understand there is a button the right side of the phone but i have lined it up and the is enough space to put a slot on the other side.

Im nervous about the new case cutouts and safety. I am a hardcore otterbox user. I really like the full case with the screen protector. The side camera button has a larger cutout and it just doesn’t seem so secure. My last phone had an otterbox. I forgot it on the roof of my car and drove off. Another car actually ran over it. But no damage to my phone!

Just what I needed, when welding the slag sparks would melt the screen, leaving little spots on it. When I bought a new 16 pro I bought the otter box case with the holster. Perfect protection the case protects the phone from dropping the holster covers the screen, then just in case I got the screen protector which is thicker and each are a perfect fit I am so impressed with Otter Box I didn’t get insurance. We will see about insurance. Definitely recommend.

Totally disappointed
Iphone 16 pro, fatal flaw. No protect to edge of glass front around the camera control button. Cracked the edge of the glass and thus cracked across the face with a week. After having previous otter boxes, never have i had this type of weakness and never have had an issue until this one. Now inhave to get a new glass face for my phone. As a fire fighter. There should not be any exposure to a glass edge. Also phone only clips into belt clip upside down, one way only vs prior models

I have always bought OtterBox cases for my phones so it wasn’t even a question when I got the iPhone 16. My only complaint would be the price. Very expensive for the most basic case. I remember paying half the price now just a few years ago. All in all a great case tho. I may have to shop around next iPhone tho, we’ll see. No one does warranty replacements like OtterBox, which is always necessary.

Awesome
I’ve always fallen back to Otterbox when looking for a good case. Nothing is better. I would just like to see more colors in the defender line

Zoom button exposed
I don't like the opening for the zoom button. I think they could have made a button for this like the volume buttons

Pretty good case
This is a great phone case. The only drawback is the open part on the side where the camera button is, I wish it is was closed. But besides that, it’s a nice case.

I like the fit and finish on the Otterbox cases. Good protection and access to buttons.

Case
Don’t like the case because of the cut out for the camera button and the indent for the holster clip is on the left side only of the case instead of both sides as in previous defender series cases

Holster catch
Holster catch is not pronounced enough. My phone has come unclipped numerous times. Other than that, it is great, but that is a constant worry!

Purchased this item for my new Iphone 16 Pro, seems very rugged, I have been purchasing Otter Box protection for over 15 years, will never purchase anything else for my cellphones!

Had a Pelican and switched back to OtterBox
Otter Box had a great price with a free holster and free shipping. Quality product!

Defender case Does not fit iPhone 16
Does not fit iPhone 16. Otterbox sent me a second otterbox as a replacement and same issue. The volume, silence, and on/off buttons do not work with the purple otterbox defender case. I think it's a design flaw. I'm very unhappy.
