Screen protector worked great on gs7 edge. Why not gs8 plus. To buy the case and then the glass way to Much $$$. If so I would give a 5 star .and get one again cause I love otter box defender . Just not this one. Thanks !
Beware, will not work with some wireless chargers. Samsung brand works but seems to be the only one as case is thicker than 5mm without beltclip holster.
I am an otterbox client all my phones have to have an otterbox. I like them cause their very durable. I work out doors and spend most of my life out doors either working, fishig, or fourwheeling...ect. The reason I dint like it was because it dont have a screen protrecror, wich might cause my phone to get dirt inside. If you ever make one woth a screen protector. I would happly buy it!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hi Mario,
Thanks for your feedback and for being a fan of our products! We are sorry that you are not happy with the screenless design on this Defender case for the Galaxy S8. We went this route to ensure that you have the best experience possible with the infinity screen.
We do have the Alpha Glass screen protector that will work impeccably with the case and phone. Check out the link below for more information on that option.
The Otterbox cases I ordered for our company phones fit great and look just as good. The only draw back is that unlike the other otterbox cases I got for older phones these do not come with a screen cover. I feel this is a draw back and I wish otterbox would fix this glaring big problem
The edge of the defender seems to catch the edge of the Alpha Glass & I'm having problem with the touch sensitivity Looks good though
I would recommend this to a friend!

Hi Seamy,
Thanks for taking the time to give us your thoughts on the Defender case for your Galaxy S8. We are sorry that this case and your Alpha Glass are not cooperating as well as they should. We are glad to see that we already have a warranty replacement heading your way.
We are confident that this replacement will remedy this abnormal issue. If you happen to have any questions please feel free to give our friendly Otters a call at 1-855-688-7269. We are happy to help!
I would have given 5 stars, but you lose points for NO GLASS PROTECTION and I had to waste more time and money to find a protector, since I couldn't get one from you (not available)
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
