I expected more from an OtterBox case, especially given the brand’s reputation and price point. Unfortunately, the back of the case scratched very easily with normal, everyday use. Even more frustrating, the two pieces that are supposed to clip together don’t connect very securely. They commonly separate, which makes the case feel unreliable and poorly designed. Overall, it doesn’t provide the solid, dependable protection I was expecting.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Don’t buy the Defender XT series. The back of the case is very slick resulting in easy drops.

The case is normal like all otterboxes but the camera action button is way too sensitive keeps taking random photos and filling up our camera rolls and yes we have 2 of them and they’re both the same mine and my girlfriends

I had one of their old cases with this type of print. This new one def holds its form better than some of their old defender cases. I’ve taken it to work, many miles of hunting trips, in and out of pockets and still looks brand new.
Thus Defender case has the build quality of the Otter Box types from a few years ago, which is to say fantastic! Wish for the price it came with the belt clip.
This case keeps my phone safe, even after two drops. One time, the case came apart, which was upsetting. Thankfully, my phone is fine.

I usually buy Otterbox cases for its high durability but they tend to slip out of my hands on occasion. Thus, I like the material on my new case—it’s not slippery
