I have been buying otter box cases for my iPhones all the way back since I had an iPhone 3GS. During that time Otterbox has always made a cut-out where the Apple emblem can be seen. For some inexplicable reason they decided not to do this. This is a dealbreaker for me. Unless they change it back I will no longer buy otterbox anything.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

They included a plastic covering with this case that can’t be taken off which makers it hard to use/press on the screen of you phone. Why can’t it just be the case and that’s it?! Don’t buy unless you like wasting money.

Hello, Jeanelle! We certainly apologize for any confusion. The Defender Series case for the iPhone 7/8/SE features a built in screen protector. If our Customer Service Team may assist with any questions, please feel free to reach out as we are always happy to help!
I had a realtree case for my iPhone 5 and on the back it has a circular hole that allows to show the apple on the back of the phone. I loved this case. So I upgraded to the iPhone 7 and ordered a new case and was excited to get it except when I opened the package and saw that otterbox has removed the circular hole and it now does not show the apple. That was a big change that made me return the case for a refund.

I was looking purchase an Otterbox case and someone had told me that this particular case would fit my child's phone. I was very happy and excited that I had finally found this camouflage case! Well, it did not fit. I was highly disappointed. I wish that OtterBox would have a case that fits the Apple iPhone plus models. Specifically, the Realtree camouflage cases, as this is the new thing these days. You lost a customer who was an absolute fan of OtterBox cases.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Our records show that we already have a return processing for you, and we're sorry to see you go. If you have any future OtterBox questions, please feel welcome to call our friendly Otters at 1-855-688-7269, and they’ll always do what they can to help out!
I dined´t like the colours if the case. The pinkish part seemed more white on the website. I have a good friend who convinced so I bought it. Unfortunately I had to pay the shipping fees to send it back which was quite expensive.
I would recommend this to a friend!

No good with iPhone 7

I got this case and to start off the case looked a year old in 2 days. Otter box was great and replaced it with a dark boring color. Then I was on the phone with Apple nonstop and Verizon. Could not figure out why nobody could hear me and my customers got so frustrated, I almost lost business. Finally I talked to someone who had a similar problem. I ditched the case and life got back to normal. I wanted good protection, but not at the expense of my livelihood. Never another otter box!
