I love the phone holster as I can always have my phone with me & my hands free. While everyone else is losing or misplaying their phone, I have mine. I can garden and do all other activities and never lose my phone.
The retaining tab has broken off the previous two. I think the case is great but wish I could have more confidence in the holder.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Hi jdd52,
We're sorry to hear that lately, you're feeling a lack of confidence in the Defender belt clip! While our products are pretty tough, they can take a beating while protecting your iPhone, and every once in a while they retain some damage. Luckily, for this exact reason, we have a pretty awesome warranty! Please feel welcome to give our friendly Otters a call at any time at 1-855-688-7269, and they'll always be happy to set you up with a brand-new replacement to keep the protection going!
I’ve owned one iPhone 6 that I didn’t buy an Otterbox Defender case for. I dropped it once and it hit the sweet spot. Gone. I learned my lesson quickly. I’ve dropped the replacement phone countless times, wiped out memorably after hitting an ice patch while skiing at speed with the phone in my pocket on one occasion and it still looks like new because of Otterbox Defender cases several years later. I didn’t bother researching other cases when it came time replace the old one.
I originally purchased the Otter case and it was excellent. I needed another case so I purchased one at the mall. It's nothing like the Otter case; it broke soon afterwards. I've realized now, I have to purchase the best, which is the Otter Case.
I ordered this product less than a month ago and it was delivered before the date I was given for delivery. This is a very sturdy product. I highly recommend it to anyone who need to replace only part of your defender.
This iPhone 6 is the third device I have had in an otter box. The first was an iPod touch for protection. Next was an iPhone 4s, at first for the protection and the belt holster, but the phone was also just better handling. There was more to hold onto and it was no longer slippery.
The reasons are the same for the 6, but the handling part is much more important now that the phones have become so thin and curved. The buttons are also much easier to use than when my son had it in a very thin minimally protective case that did almost nothing except make the buttons inconvenient to use. Sent from my iPhone
