There is no "kickstand" feature as there was on the model for the iPhone 7 Plus. I found that function very useful and will miss it.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Hi Richard,
We apologize that this iPhone Xs Max Strada series isn't quite 'standing up' to past expectations! We'll be more than happy to pass your feedback about the kickstand along to our product design team for future consideration. In the meantime, should you have any additional questions, please don't hesitate to ring up our awesome Otters at 1-855-688-7269. They're always happy to chat!
I had the same case on my 6s for years. The fit was perfect and the leather was soft. The one I got for my XS Max is stiff, the cover does not fully cover the screen. There is a slight gap at the edge. The cover is also very uncomfortable when in hand. Disappointed with this case
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hi Vince,
We are sorry that this Strada case is not giving you a typical OtterBox experience. It is strange that this one is not fitting as well as it should. We definitely want to get more details so that we can get things back on track for you. Please give our friendly Otters a quick call at 1-855-688-7269, and we will be happy to assist in any way that we can!
This is an ok case, I have had much better. The case does not stay closed. Other wallet cases have a magnetic closure that if you happen to drop your phone it will not open and protects your phone. This case will open if you drop the phone. I would opt for a better case with more protection.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Dear Lady old,
We're bummed to hear that this Strada series isn't entirely meeting expectations just yet! We have to admit, we're a little puzzled, since this case actually does integrate a magnetic latch that locks the folio cover in place. If your particular unit doesn't seem to have this feature, please feel welcome to call our awesome Otters at 1-855-688-7269, and they'll gladly hook you up with a warranty replacement!
I bought the case as I’m a long time customer of Otterbox since the days of the iPhobe 4. This would be my 4th otterbox case but the leather on the strada is not as study and too flexible. It doesn’t sit as flush over the face as it can be pushed to the side revealing some of the screen. The model for the iPhone 6/6s was of higher quality flip front. Could do with the same material as before.

Hey James,
We're so sorry to see (literally!) that this Strada series isn't exactly holding up to its end of the deal! This definitely is not typical of the product, and our friendly Otters would love to get another shot with a warranty claim. Please feel welcome to submit a request via the link below, and we'll send out a brand-new case that we trust should give you no such trouble going forward!
I have had the Otterbox Strava for about a month now and have been thoroughly enjoying it. The slim case is easy to get in and out of my pocket while providing great protection for the iPhone XS Max. I have dropped the phone on cement about five times now with absolutely no damage to the phone or the case whatsoever. The front cover provides discreet protection for any incoming notifications or messages and can be left open when that is not necessary. I highly recommend the product and paid the full retail price.
