I had my previous otter box case for four years with no damage to my phone, so I knew I had to get an otter box for my new phone. I’ve had the new case for two weeks and it’s already protected my phone from drops down stairs and drops onto concrete with no damage to my phone. The case also still looks new despite hard wear and tear already. Minimal scratches but that’ll happen when it frequently gets dropped into concrete (I’m a klutz).
The only thing is with the alpha glass screen protector, there’s less than a 1/8 in gap between the protector and case. This means lint and crumbs get in there but it’s hard to clean. However that’s a price I’m willing to pay for unmatched protection for my phone
I have the iPhone SX max the speakers are on the bottom of the phone this case allows the speakers sound to be redirected to the front of the phone works perfect I recommend autobox to all my friends and people who see my case it has the best protection you can buy for your phone.
Phone is definitely safe and secure. Don’t have to worry about dropping it and the Front facing ports for the speakers is nice. But I got the one with the clear back to show off the blue on my XR and it’s all scratched up already after a week. For that price point it’s a little disappointing..
I would recommend this to a friend!

Hi Ddante,
It's awesome to see that with the Pursuit series, you don't worry about dropping your phone anymore, but we apologize that the clear exterior can't seem to resist a good scratch! Our Otter trainers would love to toughen things up with a warranty claim, so please feel welcome to give them a call at 1-855-688-7269. They'll send over a smooth new replacement in practically no time at all!
I spent the last three years with an Otter Box case that lived up to all promises. This one looks to be even better. I like the feel, size, and workmanship. I like the forward directing sound openings, and the feel of the buttons. The color is "fine" but not overly exciting. The cost is the only factor that keeps me from giving this 5 stars, but since I'm always on the move with the phone in my pocket; I'm counting on the protection for my expensive XR to make it worth the cost.
Bought this about 6 weeks ago and I spend a lot of time in the back-country and even though I frequently do not get service, I use the camera a lot. I have dropped the phone twice and no ill effects.
Searched tirelessly for a good strong case that was slim lined, this one does the trick. Easy to install and I like the directional speaker feature. Only change... it needs some “grippies” so it doesn’t slide all over the place and is easier to hold.
