I have had the commuter series case for every iPhone I’ve had for years. It’s hands down my favorite. It didn’t seem to be available right away for the 13 Pro Max. So when I saw it I grabbed it. It’s exactly what you’d expect if you’ve ever had a commuter series case. But I didn’t read the fine print and found that it is not MagSafe compatible. I’m bummed because I’ve already bought into the MagSafe ecosystem. Now to use it I have to take the case off. I’m back on the search for the perfect MagSafe compatible case.
I would recommend this to a friend!

It's great to know the Commuter Series case has been your go-to throughout the years and different devices, and we're sorry to have disappointed you with its lack of complete compatibility with Apple's MagSafe ecosystem.
Although this model doesn't have any internal magnets to help facilitate a "locking" connection, we do make several others to meet this need, all of which you can check out through the following link. And definitely give our friendly Otters a call at 1-855-688-7269 with any questions, and we'll always be happy to talk shop!

Not nearly as protective as the defender series. No cover over phone screen.

Hi there! Sorry for any disappointment you've experienced with the Commuter Series case. You're correct in saying this case doesn't feature a built-in screen protector, but we ensure this case is seamlessly compatible with any of our trusted screen protectors for those who want that next level protection. The Commuter Series is our two-piece case as opposed to the Defender Series' three-piece makeup. If you're unhappy with this case and it's still within the 30-day return window, we'd be happy to set up that return for you and help you get a case ordered that's more to your liking. Just give our Otters a call at 1-855-688-7269 and they'll be able to assist you further.
Had a issue with my original case. It worked great but had a issue with wear and tear. Replaced for free no questions asked. New one is working great as well
The Otterbox is just so substantial and needs to be to stand up to the abuse it gets from my husband. He has dropped it, lost it on the side of the road and the case has stood up to it all.
