Perfect fit for Galaxy S8
This case is a great fit for my Galaxy S8. Wish it had a screen protector. Had to go online to find video of how to put the case on. I do feel like it's going to provide the protection I need.

My Otter protector does exactly what it was designed to do, PROTECT my phone.
I like that the case feels secure in my hand. All the buttons on the phone work better.
I had my first Otter Box for 5 years and my phone is still in pristine condition.

Not much protection on long edges.
This is my third Otterbox Defender case. The previous two provided protection all around the perimeter of the phone. This one appears to only provide protection along the top and bottom edge. I don't have much confidence in this case being able to provide sufficient protection to the phone, especially along the long edges.

LOVE it.!!
Hubby surprised me with a Samsung Galaxy s8, so I needed a serious case for such an expensive phone. I feel that my phone is actually safe & protected by the 2 part snap in shell AND the surrounding rubber cover. I really like that there are port covers to help protect from dirt/dust & moisture. And the snap in belt clip adds yet another layer of protection.

Otter Box again proves it's worth!
With the new Samsung S8, I ordered a Defender Otter Box to protect it. The Defender line is a wonderful protector. This is my third phone in the last seven or so years protected by the Defender line of products, and I couldn't be happier with never having a damaged phone in spite of the very rough treatment I subject my phones to. I ordered the Alpha Glass with the Defender, and it took several tries to get the Alpha Glass centered, but once on correctly, it works exactly as the S8 works without the protective glass. I cannot highly enough recommend Otter Box products!!

It's ok
I am a long time otter box customer and for the most part I have had no comaints untill I purchased the defender case for the Samsung galaxy S8. The overall feeling I have for this case is I don't feel like I am protecting my phone 100%. The screen feels to exposed to danger feels like not enough protection for it if you drop the phone. Also the belt clip doesn't feel secure enough I have had my phone fall out of its holster two times now and I have had the case replaced once already with in a few days of purchase. All in all I rate this a 2 out of 5 because of some flaws with the case.

A little disappointed
I have used otterbox cases for all my phones and love them, however the case for the new galaxy s8 not having a screen protector built in like the previous cases for the galaxy s7 was a little shocking to me. I would think that with newer cases that they would get better,or at least stay the same, not go backwards by not protecting the screen.

I've used OtterBox for a long time, since 2011. Just purchase a new Samsung Galaxy S8 and of course, needed a new case. FYI: I will always use OtterBox.
Pro's: rugged, 3-tier protections, easy to use
Con's: must buy a separate glass to cover the screen-face.

Love it so far. Feels much more durable and protective than the past 3 Symmetry cases I've owned while not being any thicker than them. Sick of hearing all these complaints that it's not as bulky as older defenders (that's a good thing) and that it doesn't come with a screen protector which I would throw away anyway. Ignore the whiny negative reviews lol

Sturdy Case
This is my second Otter Box case and I love how sturdy they are. Of course, I don't drop my phone intentionally but when I do I feel confident that it will be okay. The latest purchase is the Defender Series Case for Galaxy S8. I haven't tried a screen protector with this case yet because a lot of the reviews I've seen say it doesn't cover it completely so the jury is still out on this one for me. I've also seen reports that a screen protector doesn't work well with the tightness of this case. I'm still trying to decide if I should spend the money on the screen protector. Getting back to the case...it is very sturdy and makes the phone feel more secure in you hand.

Turns out that I'm a total clutz! Had this S8 less than 2 weeks and dropped it twice! Considering how these gadgets costs a mountain of money, this shouldn't be happening. Since it did however, I'm thankful and forever grateful for this Defender series case. It protects me from, well - me! Thanks, OtterBox.

Disappointment
The whole point of the Defender is FULL device protection, but that's not what you're getting without a screen protector. At the very least there should have been one included in the box. It also should be made more clear that this case does not have a screen protector. There are way better cases, but the whole reason for getting this one was the screen protection as well.

This case fits well, looks good, and the buttons are easy to push. The only thing I don't like is the charging plug cover, it weighs down on the charging port and I'm afraid it will eventually bend the metal part, other than that, I'm happy with my case.

Ordered my Otterbox from the website directly. I live in Canada and they are not available in stores as of yet. I love the fact I was able to get the color of my choice as usually the black ones are only available in stores. I love the texture of the case it's sleek and easy to grip. Since getting the case I have dropped the phone once and no issues! Wouldn't buy any other brand then Otterbox! It is worth every penny i paid!

not what i was expecting
It is a small case but no screen protection. If you are not going to make it part of the case the screen protector should come inside of the box. I am an otter box fan for 10 years and this is best and worst defender case at the same time. I might as well get the commuter case cheaper with similar protection.

NO SCREEN PROTECTOR!!!
I just received my Defender Series today and it doesn't have a screen protector at all. This case leaves the screen of the phone completely exposed, it makes the case worthless. The point of having the screen protector on the defender series is that it protects the screen when the phone is dropped and the screen protector doesn't break neither. The glass screen protector breaks depending on how you drop the phone. You'll always have to replace the glass screen protector...

My, that's a big one.
I've been using the pre-hardened S6-Active for the past 3 years and wasn't accustomed to the added bulk an OB Defender would add to the S8. Consequently the phone spends more time in my hand than in my pocket where it belongs.
The OB Defender is perfect for the phone-always-in-hand user since it gives the phone a lot more surface area to hang on to and that surface is very grippy, tactile rubber. Even if I have it in my hand on a long, sweaty, run it never seems to get slippery. OtterBox have implemented the button covers in such a way that they are BETTER than how Samsung designed them, you can actually feel the button with gloves on or while the phone is in your pocket.
Great product.

Good Case for Outdoor
I bought the Otterbox Defender series roughly one month ago.
The case has a good grip and fits perfect on the Samsung Galaxy S8. You can handle the S8 with one hand when the case is installed but it is easier with two hands.
The case seems to be very tough. I hope I don't have to test the streanght of the case in the near future ^^
There is one bad thing to say about the case. It is very hard to apply a screencover and the most screencovers don't fit on the screen with case installed.
All in all I recommend the case for everyone who does some outdoor activities!

Perfect case
So i was looking all over the internet about the best case for my phone, and everybody was recommending the otterbox defender series and I just got that Galaxy s8 so I wanted full protection for it. Going online looking at the case design, I wasn't convinced cuz it was all bulky and didn't seem to have style or design that wouldn't say "I bought an expensive phone so I'll put it in the bunker this way it'll stay safe." Well and then I said f it, the price almost had me look away cuz I found it really expensive tho just for a case. Well then I ordered it and received really quick. And then as I was putting it one the phone I noticed that it was a slim case with all the defender features and that it fitted my s8 and it's edges perfectly. I was like WOW. The case is easy to mount and unmount. It feels great in the hand and has grip. It's not slippery. It's just the best case you can ever get for your your money. And also their alpha glass is the screen protector you'd like on your phone

Much slimer than older defenders
I'm really happy I went with the defender over the commuter cause the case is no where near as bulky as older defender cases. I'm still a little worried about how this protects some of the edge curved screen but seems like a great case that provides great grip to prevent drops and good protection against drops. Hopefully I don't test the product out to much, would like to see zero drops.

When I purchased my phone the store did not have Otter Box available. I purchased a cover that did not last but a few months and started coming apart. This is my 2nd Otter Box, (different cell phones) and they hold up better than some other brands that I have tried. Moral of the story, just purchase an Otter Box for your cellphone and protect your investment.

OtterBox Defender Cases
I had an OtterBox Defender case for my Samsung Galaxy S6 and really liked the case and the protection it provided my phone. However, the case for Samsung Galaxy S8 doesn't have a cover over the screen because of Samsung's design (curved edges) for the screen. I checked out screen protectors bought one and installed it, let it set overnight and when I put phone back in case it became dislodge at top and bottom of the phone. So, currently I have no cover over the screen it self, just the OtterBox Defender case for the phone.

Would be a perfect 10 if had a screen protector
Title says it all. This is my 3rd Defender case. Exceptional fit and finish. Feels right in the hand. Allows full functionality of buttons and screen. Have had the Galaxy S8 and Otterbox Defender a couple weeks. Previous Defenders offered "full protection". My only concern is in the long-term. What will the screen be like without any protection?

Could been better
I am an otterbox client all my phones have to have an otterbox. I like them cause their very durable. I work out doors and spend most of my life out doors either working, fishig, or fourwheeling...ect. The reason I dint like it was because it dont have a screen protrecror, wich might cause my phone to get dirt inside. If you ever make one woth a screen protector. I would happly buy it!

Very pleased
Had my defender with belt clip for a few weeks. I love the shape and weight, not as heavy as I thought. The only thing I was disappointed about is there isn't a lot of colour choice, and the camo cases are for the Galaxy s7, but not for the s8.

Great.
When I got my Samsung 8 I tried a different box and was worried that I was going to break my phone. So I went back to the otter box. It makes me feel my phone is protected. And I love the blue. All my other Otter boxes were black.

It's always a good buy
I like ottobox defender cases because there're durable, should incase i ever get clumsy and drop my phone I know there is a significant amount of protection to my phone. I however thought the color was a two- toned color with a light green strip on the edge, so I was disappointed when i opened it and saw a solid color. That was my peeve.

Defender case good job
Bought the defender case and alpha screen protector. The case was excellent from the start but screen protector cause top third of the screen to be in useable. I contacted otter box and they supplied a second one without any fuss. Fitted it and haven't looked back. I have even dropped it once and it didn't even Mark it

Nice case, but no screen protector
Nice case, but no screen protector. I like the color and ruggedness of the case, but I was not happy that it had no screen protection. I may not have read closely enough, it may say that it does not. However, the video and pictures show that one came with it, as well, there was no decrease in price. I've had 8 to 10 otterboxes and they have done well. I just have to now find a screen protector that will work with the case, or another company that can make both.

Happy, but not happy
I bought this case for my S8, it says dust proof but kinda hard to get the full protection since there is no screen protector. I understand that since the screen is curved it's hard to use the same plastic that is supplied on the normal otter box. The price should be lower, or a screen protector sheet provided since the price is the same as any other otter box i have purchased. I have had the otter box products for years and support your company. Just would like to see some of the same protection you provide for the "regular" phones if it's going to cost the same price. Thank you.

Really don't know yet
Hello everyone, I have used the defender series with the galaxy s6, s7, and soon the s8. After I placed the order I wasn't sure If it provides any screen protection. I misinterpreted the screeless design description. I called Otterbox customer support and placed an order for the glass screen protector. Support was great as always. I don't have the preordained s8 yet but I suspect the defender and screen protector will be a great fit so I'm going with 4 stars until everything is delivered.

Alpha Glass Disaster
I am amazed that Otterbox claims that the Alpha Glass screen protector "works seamlessly" with the Samsung Galaxy S8. Really??? The screen protector does not sit flush with the screen, and one literally has to mash down---and mash down HARD---in order to interact with the S8 screen once the Alpha Glass is installed. Bottom line: the screen protector that doesn't even come with the Defender is a waste of money and a good way to instantly hate using your S8. Don't buy it!!!

Broke within 3 months
I bought a cheap off brand case with belt clip for my Galaxy S8. It broke within a few weeks. After asking others what they liked I bought an Otterbox expecting it to be the last case I need. Within 3 months the tab on the case that holds it in the holder had broken off. I turned the case around so the phone faced the other direction. Within a month that side of the tab broke also rendering the holder useless. A case that is advertised as the best on the market should last more than 4 or 5 months. I won't be buying another Otterbox unless they offer at least a 2 year warranty. I do not recommend this case.

I really thought that I was going to have problems when my battery exploded on my Samsung S8 Sport. I had insurance so I got a new (remanufactured S8. Of course my old case wouldn't fit. I got one from Otterbox and I couldn't be happier. I kept misplacing my phone on a trip and almost lost it once in the airport. I got my new Otterbox case in a short period of time and at a reasonable price. I can depend on Otterbox.

An Excellent Product
I have owned several Otterbox Defender cases. They were of excellent quality and did a great job of protecting the device. This one is of the same quality. It fits my phone perfectly and protects it from careless handling. And the occasional abuse by my grandsons.
I usually keep my devices until they are no longer supported by the manufacturer or carrier. Defender cases have been a major factor in allowing me to use a device until it is obsolete. I consider them a must-have and a worthwhile investment.

Nice case but...
Nice case, only gripe is the little cover flaps you have to move out of the way to plug in a charging cable/headphones. It makes it harder to grip the cable when unplugging, so instead of grabbing the cable by the hard plastic housing like you are supposed to, you are more likely to grab it by the flexible wire, which will cause the charging wire/headphones fray/break sooner. Also the buttons are a but too difficult to press for my liking. Would have preferred a less flexible material than rubber on the buttons. They still work fine though.

I have owned several Otterbox Defender cases. They were of excellent quality and did a great job of protecting the device. This one is of the same quality. It fits my phone perfectly and protects it from careless handling. And the occasional abuse by my grandsons.
I usually keep my devices until they are no longer supported by the manufacturer or carrier. Defender cases have been a major factor in allowing me to use a device until it is obsolete. I consider them a must-have and a worthwhile investment.

My otterbox has already saved my phone from damage. Although O do not love the rough edge, I feel it helps me ro hold on to the phone and I drop it less often

Otterbox case Otter this World
I find the case incredibly durable. I love the fact I can grip my phone and not have it slide around in my hands. This is my first phone+case, so I have nothing to compare it to. If there was another phone, another time, Otterbox is Queen!
