I have used Otters since I have had iPhones. The Defender series that I use does what it says it will do and more. But like anything it does wear out, but during this time it protects the iPhone inside and still looks like new.
It is just right, it is long enough to allow you to charge while still using your device. It has a robust construction which makes it very durable vs the typical factory cables
Bought it along with a case for my iPhone 8 and it doesn’t even work. Tried it with a few apple devices like my iPod and iPad and it doesn’t work on either. All say device isn’t supported so it was a complete waste of money for me.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
