I bought this case about a month ago & so far it's been good. Love the purple color & that it was easy to put on the phone. I dropped my phone from about 6ft. Up & the case protected it, no damage at all. I also purchased the glass to go along with the case & it covers the screen well. However, if the rubber edge of the case moves off the glass then the glass gets loose & makes a gap between the phone screen & glass. I would recommend this case. The prices are high & I think they should be more affordable.
No stickie substance on the edges, so of course it served no purpose.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hey there Sandy123,
We apologize that your Alpha Glass had trouble sticking to its promises! This definitely does not sound like the epic protection that we had planned for that product, and our friendly Otters would love to rectify the situation by sending out a brand-new replacement that we trust shouldn't have the same commitment issues. Please don't hesitate to give them a call at 1-855-688-7269, and they'll process a warranty claim with ease and haste!
Bought this before my phone even shipped. Put it on as soon as my phone came. I can't even tell its on. Love it and know my screen is 100% protected. Highly recommended.
The Alpha Glass Screen Protector for my Samsung Galaxy S8+ was the best purchase I could have made for this cell phone. I haven't felt the slightest bit of loss of sensitivity on the screen of my phone. Don't get me wrong; I love almost all the features of the OtterBox Defender Series cases, including the built-in screen protector. However, the Samsung S8 series phones have the curved glass, and the built-in screen protector is not an option. The Alpha Glass Screen Protector for my Samsung Galaxy S8+ was fairly easy to install, is easy to keep clean. I rarely drop my phone, so I cannot report on how well it survives and protects during a drop. I would definitely recommend trying this product on what i do know, however.
I bought this screen protector for my s8+ and it fits my otter box defender series case perfectly. It's simple to install which is a blessing since I work for a "huge phone company" and know the struggles of trying to put on screen protectors like zagg and bodyguard. Thank you otter box for this excellent product. Oh and by the way the screen in no way affects the usability of the phone and the touch screen. 10/10
As soon as you take it out of the box you can tell by the thickness it is a great product, I haven't had any serious issues with it. The only problem is that I have to press a little harder on the curved area of my screen to get my phone to respond.
