The new Defender Pro does not have enough raised edge on the screen side. With a glass screen protector is is almost flush. The pro I had for my iPhone 10 was much better.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Good case on the iPhone 12 pro, fits very tight does a good job while not too bulk like previous defender cases, no screen protector included also worth noting does not work with latercase gorilla glass screen protector or any screen protector that is edge to edge as it does cover over the edges of the screen plus the belt clip/stand isn’t as sturdy as previous ones

Hi Charly,
We're so sorry this Defender Series Pro case isn't checking off all your boxes! We decided to forego the built-in screen protector to allow full functionality of your iPhone's curved screen functionality.
We assure you this case still went through 200+ hours of extensive testing to ensure it meets our high standards of protection. If you're still unsure, please feel free to contact us through our website under "How Can We Help You?" and select "General Questions," and we'd love to boost your confidence!
i bought this to replace my iphone 6 case but the iphone 12 case dose not have protection for the face (screen ) if otter box has a model that totally encases the iphone 12 please let me know what model. i did purchase one that meets my requirements but don't know what name brand and yes with the cover over the screen face recognition still works
I would recommend this to a friend!

Hi Rusty,
We're so sorry you're feeling as though this Defender Series case is missing something. We decided to forego the built-in screen protector to allow direct, clear-cut access to your phone's curved screen technology. If you're looking for an extra line of defense, please feel free to check out our Amplify glass screen protector here: bit.ly/OBi12i12ProAmpPrivacy

I have used these cases for every iPhone I have ever had and they were great until now. Phone doesn’t stay in my belt clip. If I bump anything in the slightest my phone comes crashing down to the floor. The teeth for the clip are still there. I will not purchase this again, what a waste of money.

You're not wrong to expect any and all versions of the Defender Series case to stay firmly secure when placed in its holster, and we're sorry you're having such an aggravating experience with your most recent one.
Let's get you set up with a brand-new warranty replacement to see if that dials things in like what you've experienced in the past with all those other cases. Feel free to use the following link to get the ball rolling, or give our friendly Otters a call at 1-855-688-7269 and we'll be glad to help!

iPhone 12 case

Case is great except for one thing; it does NOT work with Apple wireless chargers, contrary to what the Otterbox Company features section says.
I’ve had an otter box defender since the 3GS days, so it’s not my first dance. I ordered the box and was disappointed it did not feel secure from slippage in my hand. It might be because the ‘defender pro’ is meant to have a different feel than the regular defender, but it’s not one that conveyed confidence. My teal defender for my xs is perfect, though. Think I’ll keep using that and keep my xs.

Very poor case compared to my iPhone 6 plus case. There is no shield for the screen.

Hi, Charlie!
We're sorry to hear about your disappointment with that new Defender Series screenless design. After exhaustive design testing, our engineers determined that the best way to interact with the advanced screen of your display was without the addition of a built-in screen protector. That being said, our tests have shown that this case provides the same level of drop protection as past Defender Series cases. Additionally, that case is totally compatible with Amplify and Alpha Glass if you're looking to add a level of protection never available with our older Defender Series design. Having said that, we appreciate your feedback about the slipcover on your case, and we'll be sure to let our engineers know about your experience.
If you run into any issues with your case, please don't hesitate to reach out to our Customer Service Team here: https://www.otterbox.com/en-us/contact-us
