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.
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.
I have been using the new Note 8 and Otterbox cover for 2 weeks now. No, the case does not come with a screen protector, but in my opinion that's okay. It comes with a holster that you can use to protect the screen when not using it. I love the color it came in. The case feels very durable and fits very snug on my phone. Great job Otterbox!
Frame is a little bit slack in the holster, no screen protector.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Hey Darnel!
We apologize about any confusion caused by the screenless design for the Galaxy Note 8 Defender! We truly believe that our customers will have the best interaction with the uniquely curved infinity display through either direct contact with the glass or use of our separate Alpha Glass screen protector. If you're interested in a little more protection upfront, so to speak, we would recommend checking out the Alpha Glass for a great tempered glass screen option. Feel free to take a look by following the link below!
As for the belt clip holster, we find it strange that it is not holding the phone securely, since we engineer the clips to hug the devices pretty snugly. We would love to take a closer look to see if we can help, so please give our Otter team a call at 1-855-688-7269, and they'll be glad to further assist you with this.
