I swear by Otterbox. I have successfully used these cases for years. I have watched my phone accidentally drop 7 feet to concrete and not a scratch. I do my best to ensure my phone doesn't go flying off but if it did I wouldn't worry too much as long as it was in a Defender.
I THINK THEY NEED TO BRING BACK THE COVER BUILT ON IT ALREADY AND THE PLASTIC ON CASE PARTS BREAKS ON ME EVERY TIME

Hello! Our engineers removed the built-in screen protector from our Defender Series case to ensure complete functionality with the newest devices. Our Defender Series was redesigned in order to provide the same drop protection even without the built-in screen protector. The addition of one of our amazing screen protection options provides your phone with premium protection and outperforms our previous Defender Series designs.
Great fit like all otter boxes but the charging tab on the bottom doesn't fit any charger very well. My last one came off. Thankfully I mostly use wireless charging unless I'm traveling for work. It really isn't designed for plug in charging.
The Galaxy S24 Ultra Case Defender Series Pro product I received did NOT fit my Samsung S24 Ultra. I could not fit my phone in no matter how much I tried. Tried short side first, long side first, no joy.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hello! We are so sorry to hear that you experienced a fit issue with your case. When putting your device into a Defender Pro Series case, you will want to ensure that you take the case apart in order to put your device in the case. A great way to start is to open the charge port cover and proceed to peel off the outer rubber shell, much like peeling an orange. Then, you will want to gently separate the hard plastic pieces into a back and a front frame. Then, you will insert your device and put the case back together. Please reach out to our CS Team by phone or via chat, and we are happy to help with this!
