When I purchased my Samsung S8 I also got a protective case with it. After about six months I found scratching around the edges because of the thin protective surface of the case. I've had Otter Box Defenders for other phones in the past and in my opinion there are no better protective cases. The fit of this one is perfect, and has much better protective edges than the other brand I had. Definitely worth every penny!
This is the 5th unit I have bought. Only replaced the last one that lasted 2.5 years. Many drops, bends . If you want performance and dependability this is the phone protector for you !!!
i bought this because my I broke my first one. I realy like it because it is easy to use and it holds my phone tight. The only problem is that the hard case that clips onto the phone is broken and I have to be sure it is clipped in good.
My boyfriend has a Galaxy S8 Defender Phone and needs the Otter Box holster because of the clip. He needs it to put on his belt for work. We have bought over 4 of the otter boxes from the phone dealerships for alot of money then we found otter box had just the holster to buy and as of today I have bought 4 of them for him because they keep breaking. It needs to be a little bit more sturdy of material. He does like the holster and clip because it is easy to access his phone.
I would recommend this to a friend!
