This is my first Otterbox purchase, to be fair it's the only phone protection product that I have ever purchased. I did some research before getting my case and decided to go with Otterbox verses the other highly rated cases. The case is beautiful, I love the color-way and design. I wish this particular case was also waterproof as that is a feature not included in this line. (Bummer!) In addition the home button area at the bottom of the case, despite having what appears to be two layers of plastic has developed a bubble fold in it rather than being smooth, that flaw is sort of a disappointment since I've only had the case less than two moths. Overall I would say the product is good and I would recommend it to others. Thanks!
Seems like the case will protect the phone, which is the main concern, but not as pleased with the surround/sleeve as it does not fit that great in areas around the hard-shell case. Also, the sensitivity of the screen cover is not as good as previous models...seems as though there may be a void or air pocket in the center that is contributing to this. This is even after I received a replacement case under warranty. The volume buttons are easier to use on the replacement and not as stiff/hard to use. Maybe they'll be better now that the phone has been out for a little while and can utilize further testing.
Overall the 6 Defnder is working well. I do however find that you need to push down more on the screen edges for the phone to pick up you touch.
Pros: Durable
Cons: hoster is not as tough as the defender i had for 4
I would recommend this to a friend!

overall this is an awesome case, i feel it will protect my phone from what ever life will throw at me but the touch ID is touch an go, and the buttons are kinda hard to push but still a great case, screen protector doesn't diminish the retina display at all which is nice :)
Had an iPhone 5 case, same one, thought this might make phone bulkier. It does not! Case fits snug and protects wonderfully. I like it better then the 5.
I love the case for my 1phone6 it is durable and stylish, but if I had anything to complain about would be the bulkiness and the screen protector. You can't use the touch login, and you have to really push sometimes on the screen to register your request. Other then that I love it. I got if because of my 3 small grandchildren. They love to get a hold of my phone, and with the otterbox case, I know it is safe.
I had the similar model for my 5s It broke the clip just about the same time I ordered my new iphone 6 The new case is still a great case with two exceptions The edge of the case should cover the camera lense to protect it from damage The cover to the charging receptacle is hard to open unless you remove the phone from the carrying case
Pros: High quality, Durable
Cons: no lense protection, charging plug to hard to open
