This is my fourth iPhone Defender case from OtterBox, and it's the best. It's been a steady improvement from 3G, 4s, 5s and now the 6s+ case. Keep up the great work!
I've had OtterBox cases on previous generation iPhones, so I had a high expectation for the product. I impressed with OtterBox's quality and design. I'm very happy with the product so far and would recommend it.
I've been using the Defender series cases on my last 3 iPhones, the 4s, the 5c and now the 6s Plus. While the overall design has been the same, I've noticed some subtle changes that work very well.
This new case seems very well polished and designed. It obviously adds some bulk to an otherwise large phone, but the extra bulk is worth it in my opinion.
My only complaint is the customization option doesn't include a belt clip. I use the belt clip every day and find that's an essential accessory with this case. It should be included without an extra cost, just like the pre-packaged cases.
I applaud Otterbox for taking care of the screen protector issues with the former version of this Defender case for iPhone 6s Plus. It fits well and does what Otterbox has always done - protects my investment.
I purchased a Defender. The sales information on the Defender was so unclear that I was not sure the purchase included the holster...so I ended up buying one as well,...have 2.
I only wish the Otter Box would make the clip removable as it would fit better in my handbag if I could remove it but keep my cover on it for the protection.
OtterBox is one of my top choices for cases. It has protected the phones I have owned over the years against drops even on a hard tile floor and against minor splashes where there are port covers or covered by the case. The one I have now in Hibiscus Frost (Pink & White) for the iPhone 6s Plus has a soft back that makes it easy to grip and keeps it from sliding around on the surface when placed on its back. I like that the pink has a touch of sparkle to it as well. Sometimes the pink will get a little discoloration. I have been able to get that off with a little rubbing alcohol and a soft cloth or Mr. Clean sponge. Do not use this on the screen protector though. I like that I can build my own case too.
My only wish is that they make the "Preserver" series for the model of phone I have. It was one of the best waterproof cases I have ever owned.
Here's what I like about the Defender for the iPhone 6s Plus case: 1)Little, if any, loss of responsiveness with touch screen. Force touch and Touch I.D. work without issue. 2)Aftermarket Lightning chargers and headphone jack fit in the case's respective portals and perform without issue. 3)Surprisingly, the case isn't as bulky as I expected.
Here's what I don't like about the Defender for the iPhone 6s Plus case: 1)People complain to me that phone audio sounds muffled. 2)The rear case. I know I own an iPhone. I don't need to show off the Apple logo on the rear of the phone. 3)The Defender is not waterproof, nor does it claim to be. I just wish it was.
