My second buy of this case. First one lasted about a year. The top snap/clip that holds the phone tight in the case broke when it and the phone hit the ground getting out of my car. We'll see how my second one does.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Hey there John Deer 2305,
We're glad to hear that when your phone did eventually fall from the clip, the Defender case protected it from certain peril! That's a win in our book. We apologize that the belt clip broke, and we're stoked that you're already set up with another one. Should you have any further questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out to our support team at 1-855-688-7269. We're always happy to help!
I have been buying otterbox cases for several generations of iPhones. While my iPhone + Defender case is much more hefty than the iPhone itself, the case has provided protection against weather, spills and falls. I literally dropped it (accidentally of course) down a set long set of stairs without any resulting damage. While I would love a wider color/pattern choice, I have no complaints and will continue to purchase this case for any phone that I own.
