I have had the otter box defender for my phones and my children's phones for many years and while he's I have had to replace the cases for different reasons (My daughters) I have never had to replace a phone. They protect my expense well. They do add bit of bulk to the phone or so I've been told. You really don't notice after awhile, but when you take the car off for any reason, w poo w it it a tiny fragile feeling piece of technology. Well worth the money for the piece of mind is the otterbox.
Hoping It's as good as the rest of them have been one small Complaint cannot use the Charging adapter for old android cord slot is not big enough on bottom of case to allow the use of the Adapter block
I bought this case about a month ago and received it just before my wife's note 8 arrived. It is much less bulky than previous Defender series cases for devices such as iPhone 5, note 5, s5, and s6. It provides extreme protection while maintaining the feel and style of the very modern smart phone. It does not add bulk nor barely any weight, while still protecting the device better than comperable cases.
Love the feel and color. I clip it in and it stays.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Hi Michael!
Great to hear that your belt clip for the Galaxy Note 8 Defender is working seamlessly and that you're enjoying the design of the case itself! At least, we're hoping that's the case, since the two-star rating you gave is actually one of the lower scores out of five stars. If you're actually having any issues with the case, just reach out to our awesome Otter team a call at 1-855-688-7269, and they'll be happy to help in any way that they can!
I have been buying the Defender cases for years.Fit is great and lighter and less bulky while still having great protection.Color is great.Since buying the Defender have not had a damaged phone.cases are long lasting..
I am very pleased with my Otter Box Defender for my Note 8! Fits perfect and feels great and sturdy in hand. I don't plan on dropping it, but if I do I'm not worried with the Otter Box Defender on it. Definitely recommended!
