It wasn’t good around the action button. Had issues with the case wanting to stay snapped.

The design is LESS THAN the safe case we purchased years ago. I’ve had my phone just a month and apparently dropped it later realizing it the screen now has a chip broken on the right side!! This model case (maybe all cases now days??) does not have a screen protector. We covered the screens to prevent scratches but never anticipated a chip & crack with the OtterBox in place! Time to switch brands.

Offer decent protection but very disappointed in the Camera Control coverage. many other cases have a way to at a minimum protect the area, but OtterBox chose to just create a massive section of their case to be removed. This in my opinion leaves a very large unprotected edge to the phone, which isn’t acceptable. Much less expensive cases offer the same protection and better design over the camera control button. A returning the case for this reeason.

Hello, Scott! The new and improved designed cases work seamlessly with Apple's new camera control button on the Apple iPhone 16 line of cases. Our engineering team not only found that the new notch does not diminish the drop protection of the case, we also re-engineered these cases to be Drop+ 7x rated. Please give our CS Team a call at 1-855-688-7269, or reach out to us via chat, and we are happy to help with any other questions or concerns you may have regarding the case or the return process.
Great fit as always, but no holster included. I had to purchase one separately. They used to come with a holster.ar the price point they should be offered.
The otter box goes around the camera button on the right side so it leaves that space of 1 1/2 inches of the screen exposed. The volume on and off button is not covered so it is easily touched I have Otter boxes since they first came out. I would trust no other cover for my phone

It is strong to protect your phone. But, it is very awkward. The camera space is too large. I grab my phone and the camera button is where I always grab, I can no longer use my stand up charger. The case is too thick. No to the Defender model. My kids bought Serenity, but they cracked on the second day of use.
