Whenever it comes to getting a phone case there is no company I trust more than OtterBox . The last phone I had lasted so many years through so many drops and not a scratch was left.
The Defender is a great product. I am stepping up from an iPhone 5S to a 7 and will use the Defender again. It has proven itself after being launched off the back of my truck at speed. Came back and found my phone in the middle of the road unharmed. My problem is I work outdoors most of the time and really want a safety color slip cover (green, yellow or orange). Black is the same color as my bedliner and pink is bright for sure but...Pink? No, sorry. So to the Otters, PLEASE add a safety color(s) to this great box. After all, that's why we buy it.
I've never owned any other brand of phone case except for Otterbox. Although it is more expensive than other brands, it is definitely worth the extra money. Very durable and resistant to daily activities. A case will usually over a year and I also LOVE how Otterbox will ship you a brand new case ANYTIME it is damaged. All you have to do is follow the instructions on the website.
For my iphone7i had originally bought a tempered glass screen protector from Zagg and a slim case from Case Mate. Within one day, the tempered glass chipped and cracked. The case was ok but nothing to brag about. I knew I had to get something with better protection so I shopped online at Otterbox. I was quite hesitant to buy an Otterbox case because I already knew otterbox was bulky and I didn't think I was going to like the feel of a bulky case in my hand, but i took the risk because I'm crazy like that, and bought the Defender case. Turns out that I LOVE everything about it. I love the rubber grip which prevents the phone from slipping out of my hands. The volume and power buttons are a perfect fit and are used with ease. I love the built in screen protector. I built my own case with the pink shell and the aqua mint slip cover. I love it so much that I bought the plum slip cover as well so I can switch when I get bored! This is a good looking case with excellent protection and is well worth the money!
Bought a new Apple I 7 plus phone, and i new i had to protect it... Everyone recommended Otterbox. I first bought the other shell, not knowing i needed the inner case. I purchased it all and was truly amazed on how well it fit....
I've used otterbox for years. No problems whatsoever. I wish otterbox would come out with a "lifeproof " type case that is completely protected from liquids. Thanks otterbox for making great quality products.
I've had this case for a few months and thought it was perfect until I noticed the rubber started to tear and get loose around the circle. At first I thought nothing of it until it gradually started getting bigger until a whole layer was missing and then cover itself attracts so much dirt and is impossible to get off. I had high hopes for this case since I saw so many good reviews but I am sad to say I am disappointed.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
