Same problem as many others. Does not for we'll with tempered glass screen protectors. Lifts up on the corners. Magnet on the back also doesn't work. Very sturdy case though. I typically use the original defender, this is my first pro. I definitely prefer the other version.

Its better than the otterbox defender case for the S23 i had previously which broke easily. I think its chinsey that you separated the case and the holster at the price point you have the case selling for. The holster should come with the case.
The Defender case for my Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra fits a little too tight around the screen and causes my screen protector to rise off of the screen. I've tried multiple screen protectors including some from Otterbox themselves.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

The magnets arent strong enough to hold my phone up on anything (metal surface, or even a magnetic phone holder... pretty disappointed coming from otterbox which tends to be the highest rated cases..

Hello Brandon! The new Defender Series Pro XT with Magnets is designed to work specifically with Qi2 compatible mounts. Other magnetic mounts may not be fully compatible with the Qi2 capabilities of our case.
The case is so tight and it cracked my temper glass
