Customer Reviews for OtterBox - Defender Series Pro Hard Shell for Apple iPhone 17 - Green

I purchased an OtterBox Defender series for my IPhone 17. I’ve used them for my last 3 or 4 iPhones. Great quality and extremely durable. It really protects my phone from an occasional fall out of my pocket. OtterBox offers great warranty service if needed. A great product at a fair price!
OtterBox is and always be my go to for phone protection…

Excellent quality and superior protection as usual. The Defender series of cases are the best cases I've ever used!

Nothing better than this case for a journeyman roofer, and I’ve put it through a lot.

Expensive without extra features. Needs a kickstand or finger loop. You can find so many other options these days with many more features that also offer drop protection. Otterbox may be sturdy but needs more offered for the $$$

Phone comes out of the belt clip too easily. Had otter box clips before that were more resistant to coming out

This is my fourth iPhone with an Otterbox. I've had all kinds of adventures with my Otterboxed phones--they've been dropped in all kinds of situations with no damage, and once I got kicked by a horse right where my phone was in my front pocket. Seriously, I truly believe my phone in its Otterbox saved my hip from getting broken, and my phone still worked well enough to save all my data! I can't imagine having any other kind of phone case.

Good case but problematic with cordless rechargers

I like the case as it's pretty solid and protects my iPhone 17. The only issue I have with it is that the protective ring around the camera lenses interferes with my car's cordless rechargers. I didn't have this issue with the Otter Commuter with my iPhone 12.
I would recommend this to a friend!
