Beautiful look to the case. For me the style seems to have an elegant look to it. The only thing I am not happy with is the spots where you push the buttons for volume and power off. More so the the volume! The buttons are so flush to the case that I actually have to look at the case to use them. Definitely prefer them to be a little more raised.
I bought this for my new iPhone 8 plus. My last phone was an iPhone 6 Plus with a wallet case from another company ( who no longer makes wallet cases for the new phones) I have always used Otterbox Defenders in the past except for the last one. I found this new wallet style case very well built and nice looking! Would buy again! (Wish it came in soft pastel colors though)
I have to take the cover off, to talk, or the person on the other line cannot hear me. Sounds like I’m under water.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

When I first got this case in saddle brown for my iPhone 7 I loved it. Then I noticed it for the iPhone 8 plus and I knew I had to have it. The soft opal is such a pretty color. I love how it feels in my hands, and how it provides protection from drops. Case is very well made and I couldn’t be happier with this purchase. Awesome job otterbox
The leather is beautiful, soft, and non-slip. I used some shoe cream for deeper color. I was surprised by the fantastic magnetic latch which holds the cover open or closed and that the cover works as a stand in landscape mode. A wonderful feature. The rubber fully protects the phone but the inside of the cover is some weird plastic suede. I would like more and bigger card pockets on the inside, but I love how thin this case is. Look no further. This is the one to get. Fast shipping from Otterbox.com too.
I loved the commuter. It had enough space for multiple cards. Please bring it back.

I bought this a few weeks ago and can no longer use it. Every single person I talked to could not hear me. Took the cover off and haven’t had any problems.

I really like the pearl color - light and easy to find in my purse and I like having a book like cover as extra protection for the front of my phone. Plus it helps deal with any brightness, as I sleep with my phone near my bed and with the cover no light comes through at nite
