Bought this because I was hoping the popsocket would work as a horizontal and vertical stand and make the phone easier to handle. It works ok as a horizontal stand but collapses when trying to use it as a vertical stand. Also the case on my iPhone 10s Max makes it too large to hold well in one hand. So I returned the case. Build quality is good so if you have big hands and like popsockets than this is the case for you.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Bought it because of color. Case is okay. Pop out part keeps coming out. Can't use wireless charger anymore. Otter is a good case, just not crazy about this pop thing. Was expensive.

Hi Lyn,
We're so sorry this Otter + Pop Defender Series case isn't checking off all your boxes this time around. To clarify, are you removing the PopTop before wireless charging? This will help with a seamless charging experience. If you're looking for something a little different, please feel free to check out our other iPhone Xs Max cases below!
I’m a snob - totally admit it. I used to have a “Kate Spade” only policy. :) I purchased this cover after paying over 1K for a new phone I am determined to keep it as protected as I can. So, in addition to the screen protector I decided to try out the OtterBox case. I LOVE IT! It’s sturdy and you can just tell it is quality. I also decided to purchase a cover for my IPad which has basically made the thing indestructible! Thanks OtterBox - great product!!!
I love the flat design of the built in Pop Socket and the fact that it won't come off. I love having the ability to change the cover design as well. The only negative I have found is that my phone is NOT as secure in my Pop Socket brand stick on car mount. My old pop socket would snap in and felt secure. This design doesn't allow that same secure mounting.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I bought this for my iPhone 10s max. The placement of the pod would not work to prop the phone up with landscape or portrait. The pod was comfortable holding, but I wanted something to prop up the phone and this did not work.

Hey there Aggie73,
We're so sorry to hear that your Otter + Pop Defender series for the iPhone Xs Max had trouble converting into a stand! Our Otter detectives would love to further investigate this, so please feel welcome to give them a call at 1-855-688-7269. They'll crack the code and solve this mystery as soon as possible!
The quality of the Otter box is great. My issue is that because the Pop Socket is recessed my finger rides much higher on the Pop Socket than a regular Pop Socket and the plastic lip at the top of the Pop Socket hurts my finger. Not happy with this design. It needs to be changed.
