Great case as always my first choice to protect my devices. Defender is always the case I ask for. When i get a new device. The only thing I find different is no plastic screen. Great job as always otterbox. Thanks for protecting all my devices when available.
Switching back to my faithful Note 8 after the Note7 incident was far overdue. I used the Edge that had a screen protector with its Defender case that proved more cumbersome than what it was worth. Now, the ability to have a separate screen protector while having 50% phone security coverage makes using the phone more enjoyable. Can't wait for the screen protector from Otterbox.
I bought the case as I need maximum protection for my phone - I tend to drop my phone often - for whatever reason - and actually destroyed my Note 5 by a freak fall. That case was a knock off ... Therefore - I am now an Otterbox lifer! As the Note8 needs a 'naked' screen, I was a bit disappointed that it didn't have a cover - but time will tell! I may add the glass protector. I would love to see a red one for my Note 8
Used Otterbox since 1st Smartphone.Started with "free" phone from MetroPCS. Moved to T-Mobile: Galaxy S3 x2 (+wife) - Galaxy S5 - Google Motorola - Samsung Galaxy S7Edge - Galaxy S8 (wife) - Galaxy Note 8. Dropped them all many many times. NEVER had a phone damaged. Proof is in the pudding (protection).
I have had an Otterbox Defender on every Samsung phone I have owned. Every one was in absolutely new condition 2-3 years later when I was ready to upgrade. I have a new Note 8 and my defender case is remarkable. My phone is so protected with an Otterbox.
