Better Safe Then Sorry
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have used the OtterBox before on my last phone and have no complaints! My phone was almost 5 years old when I got my new phone and looks brand new. This OtterBox is a bit sleeker looking and I love the blue color!

Good protection
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Well never used an outerbox before I was a tech 21 guy. I purchased this case because I liked the upper and lower lip protection that it had. I tried others and I didn't like it I drop my phone almost 2-3 times a day and still looks new thnks to this case.

Good case, not so good holster
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The case fits great and provides good protection. The holster has small tabs that will break off and the phone will fall out of the case. Mine did and chipped the screen. They should make the clips the same as the holster for the iphone.

Nice product, but a serious flaw
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I really wanted to like this item -- the case is solid and well constructed, and there are even silicone rubber tabs on the case which protect the phone's ports (e.g., headphone jack) against moisture. However, the belt-clip holster is a different matter, and -- in my opinion -- has a fatal design flaw: I agree with other reviewers that the phone is not adequately and securely locked into the holster. I stopped using this item when -- while quietly eating dinner in a restaurant, I heard a faint clatter, and looked down to see that my new Galaxy S8 had -- for no apparent reason -- popped out of the holster, landing on a hard floor. (Had I not been paying attention, I might have even missed this completely!) Having read other reviews, I was very worried about this possibility and had taken great care to ensure that my phone was "locked in" to the holster. The problem is that the phone is held into the holster at two corners, and a tiny "claw" or "teeth" fit into a small, shallow "groove" to lock the phone in place. (See photo.) Two tiny plastic teeth engaging into a plastic groove (only about 0.5mm deep) is the *only* thing preventing your expensive phone from popping out, and -- as I found out -- it apparently takes almost no provocation to eject the phone. I'm not willing to wager my $600 phone against this chance, and instead I switched to a Turtleback leather holster which completely encloses the phone.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from OtterBox Customer Support
Posted .Hey Midwesterner,
We apologize that you're feeling so much hesitation towards this belt clip holster! True, if the belt clip is feeling a little shaky, you're definitely not experiencing the standard Otter security that we normally expect. Please feel welcome to call our awesome representatives at 1-855-688-7269, and they'll hook you up with a brand-new holster. We're confident that a warranty replacement should get you back on track to the ultimate side protection in no time!
Sincerely,
OtterBox Customer Service Team
Q: QuestionCan I fit any glass protector on this?
Asked by Nicky.
- A:Answer I originally tried to use this case with the Otterbox AlphaGlass shield, which is a fortified glass cover that perfectly fits the S8 screen. It was so thick, however, that the Defender case could not stay snapped together. I returned the glass shield and now the case is staying tightly snapped. I suspect other brands of formed glass shields would have the same problems due to their thickness.

Q: Questionthe demo shows the screen protector but the reviews says it does not have one and if not which otter box case for Samsung s8 comes with screen protector since all reviews for the Samsung s8 say that it breaks easily when dropped
Asked by Jadabug.
- A:Answer Otterbox Defender for Samsung S8 does not come with its own screen. It does, however, have a holster included. Would not recommend an integral Otterbox screen protector like you may have seen in previous O/B versions (simple piece of plastic built into the case itself). S8 phone screen is notorious for not playing well with screen protectors due to noticeable decrease in screen sensitivity. I eventually took my screen protector off and do not currently use a screen protector. This Defender protective case is very "grippy" in a shirt pocket; so, I do not expect it to slide out on its own. Very happy with purchase of the Defender case and confident it will protect my very nice and expensive phone.
