Great product and no hassle warranty.
I work in constructions and I’m alway dropping my phone and I don’t even want to know how many phones I would have broke without my OtterBox case. They are pricey but they protect your phone for sure.
I’ve even broken a few of these cases or the clips but OtterBox warranty them and all I have to do is pay a few bucks for shipping and I get a new case in a week or so

Amazed after saving my new phone
I run heavy equipment for a living and the other day I dropped my phone from 6 feet face down. Immediately after it hit the ground a fully loaded 120,000 lb tractor and trailer ran right over it (6 axles total). I had this defender series case on it as well as a glass screen protector and after peeling off the shattered screen protector, I looked all over my phone front and back and I couldn’t believe that there was no cosmetic or functional damage to my phone! Otter box, thank you for saving me a bunch of money and protecting my phone!

Very sturdy but speaker cuts out
I will always use Otterbox because I drop my phone constantly, however, it does make my speaker phone cut in and out which is infuriating.

I Need a Tough Phone Case
This is the second case that I have purchased for this I-phone. The only issue was with the rubberized outer portion. I really put these to the test...I am tough on them. Otherwise really happy with all the OtterBox products I have owned over the years. When I get a new phone...I get an OtterBox Case immediately.

Protects my phone
Fits well. It makes the phone bigger and bulkier, but worth the protection against my frequent dropping of the phone. I modified a car dash mount so the case clips on it - easy to put in and take out of the dash mount.

Problem with case fitting phone as advertised
The product did not fit the phone. The feedback options on the website did not offer that feedback just that "changed your mind". Not an appropriate option as suggests I made a mistake when in fact the phone case did not fit the cell phone as advertised.

I love these cases!
This is my fourth (at least) purchase of an Otter Box phone case. They have saved my phones many times. As with many cases today you will need to add a separate screen protector. While one cannot rely on a case to protect against water, I did once briefly drop my phone in a pond and had no damage—I credit the Otter Box!

Was Great; Now Just Okay
I've bought the Defender for every iphone I've ever owned. After the first Defender, I didn't bother to even look around when buying / upgrading phones.
Long time advocate for OtterBox but I would probably not buy again. Similar to other posts, the new version for (e.g., for the iphone 12) is a disappointment if you had the prior versions.
The lack of built-in screen protection is suboptimal for a series who had a following of people that were happy to trade bulk for protection. The old versions made your phone indestructible; but this version offers considerably less.
I'm upgrading my phone in the next month and will shop around to see what's available elsewhere in the market. It isn't that the OtterBox is bad; it just isn't great anymore.
I suspect if the company reviews ratings on prior versions vs. newer versions, they will similarly see a trend in customer satisfaction.

Not what they used to be
The defender just isn’t what it used to be. The top plastic piece is just too thin and 2 of mine have cracked and broke. Other than that it is still very protective if you’re not too rough on phones.

My phone was run over by MANY cars - no damage!!!!
I have always used Otterbox cases because I drop my phone so much. But yesterday was the big test -- I put my phone on the roof of my car & forgot as I drove off. The phone fell off in the street without my knowledge, and was apparently run over by many cars over 20+ minutes in a busy street. A few hours later I got the phone back and it works fine! The case absorbed all the damage (you could see all the scratches and the plastic was a bit flattened). Totally worth the $$.

I am very happy with this case.
I had my iPhone 12 case with auto charging 3 months. I love it, the case is way thinner than they use to be. It feels great. My phone is so protected. Outterbox really step up their game. I would definitely box another case for my future phone. My only negative experience is delivery, UPS don’t update delivery times. I do have to say my case did arrive on time. I wish I bought an automatic charger when bought my case.

Case (and screen protector) replacement really is like getting a new phone at a fraction of the price. I always buy one with a new phone, and again at the “halfway” point. Case is solid, and has prevented catastrophe on many occasions.
