I've never owned an OtterBox before but I'm so glad I tried one. I love how secure my phone feels. I was a bit worried it would feel too bulky or heavy but it doesn't at all.
I have had several of the defender cases, and have been very happy with all of them!! Even when I had to warranty a broken part, it was quick and easy!! Great Company! And Great Service!!
I had this model case for my pixel 2 xl and so I was eagerly waiting for the pixel 3 xl version. I am not disappointed at all. Since I wear the case on my right side, I already got used to the “reverse flip “ one has to perform to put the phone in the holster with my pixel 2, so that doesn’t bother me as much as it did some reviewers.
I'm surprised there's no screen cover, is this new to the Defender? Where's the Commuter for the Pixel 3 & 3XL? I'm very happy with this Defender case, thank you
The case is awesome, but the holster, not so much. It's hard to release the phone from the holster. It's almost a two handed operation.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Hey there Mikew,
We apologize that this belt clip is struggling to get used to the idea of protecting your Pixel 3 XL! While the Defender holsters sometimes have a brief accumulation period, after some time, using them should start to feel like second nature. If this doesn't happen, please feel welcome to call our expert Otters, and they'll be happy to help troubleshoot this!
