OtterBox - Defender Series Case for Apple® iPhone® 7 and iPhone® 8 - REALTREE XTRA

Chose the purple color Otterbox with the round little window to show the apple on my phone. I wanted the most protection for my new phone, it is a thicker case and it has the plastic screen cover built in. I like how it wraps around and covers the entire phone and it also has a little flap that covers where you plug in to charge to keep out dust/dirt. I watched a video on how to install onto the phone, a little patience is needed but I didn't find it so hard that I had to ask for my husband's help. Just make sure you have a clean phone screen and that the Otterbox screen cover is clean inside and out. The video I watched had this tip and I made sure not to close it until I had checked for smudges or fingerprints. I like how it feels solid in my hand and I'm very happy with this purchase. It fits inside my Marika slim waist pack that I use for my workouts. I've recommended this cover to friends and family. Great price at Best Buy too!

I have had three iPhones in the past. The last two literally lasted until they just weren't able to get updates any longer, due to the size and nature of the phone. And that is because both of those previous, as well as my new one, all where in an Otterbox Defender Case. I'm rough on my phone. They would have never made it that long without such amazingly well designed protection. Excellent product. I'm confident my new phone will also outlive it's usefulness before it is every broken. (PS: Both of the last phones looked "new" when they were finally removed from the case and retired).

I have been using otter box products since before they made phone cases and they’re quality is good, but their customer service is even better! Great 2 layer protection (hard plastic inner layer + silicone shell). When you remove the screen protector and put a glass screen protector on your phone (and put your case back on overtop) it gives you even better protection and allows for easier and clearer screen viewing. If your case ever breaks or starts showing wear - simply call OtterBox and they will send you a new case for free, just pay a few bucks for shipping!

So I really do like Otterbox cases. I currently have 2 - one for my Goggle Pixel 2 XL, and one for my Apple iPhone 7. This is the one for my iPhone. It is a great case. Light weight, great protection, easy to put together, and not nearly as bulky as they used to be. The only negative, is the raised edges of the case around the screen are a little to high. I have problems hitting some of the "keys" close to the edge when typing (q, p, shift, backspace, the number key, etc). Maybe its the size of my fingers.

I read reviews before purchasing my first OtterBox Defender case. This is my 3rd one purchased, each for a new phone. I work as an installation technician for manufacturing equipment and travel all over the world. I don’t use the belt clip holder for the phone because of some of the tight areas I work in, but the case is durable and sturdy enough that I just keep it in my back pocket weather sitting or leaning on machinery. These cases have protected my last 2 phones during drops and in dirty environments. Phones look like new after 2 years in the case.

I've always relied on Other to protect my phone. In the past I was able to insert a separately purchased tempered glass screen protector. I know that glass saved my screen. This Otter came with a nonremoveable plastic screen protector that is to easily scracthed, and pitted. And is becoming cloudy. The glass protectors I've used in the past never allowed moisture to sleep under it, and I've already had to take this one apart to dry my phone. Really disappointed.

The otter box is a good case , I like the clip feature, however I don’t like the charging port... it has a rubber plug type of flap that makes it difficult to connect the charger to the I-8 phone while the phone is attached to the clip portion of the case unlike the 5s case I used previously. If it wasn’t so difficult to connect the charger I would have given 5 stars ; also the thickness of the edges of the case make a little harder to reach the tiny letters while accessing my contacts on the right side.
