This case is not for me. It’s bulky, heavy, and if you are a photographer, the built in screen makes it hard to see if the picture is in focus. Returning it. Don’t recommend unless you really want water protection.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hi, Jane!
We're sorry to hear about your troubles with your Defender Series case screen protector! We appreciate your feedback, and we'll be sure to get it passed up the ladder to our design team. Just to clarify, the Defender Series isn't designed to be a waterproof case. We hope that you find an OtterBox that checks the right boxes for you!
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 loved the otter box I had with my other phone. And I knew I had to have one for my new phone. It’s sturdy and easy to hold in your hands - and I love the new color.
