Customers are saying

Customers are satisfied with the Defender Pro Series Case's excellent protection and secure fit for their Apple iPhone 11 Pro Max. Many appreciate its durable quality and ease of use, along with the added grip it provides. However, some customers find the case bulky and heavy, and note the lack of a built-in screen protector and potential issues with wireless charging.

    Store reps were very rude and did not want to assist me in my purchase. The cashier acted as if I were bothering her. I said thank you and her reply was “yea”!!!!! I loved shopping at Best Buy in Jonesboro AR, but we no longer have the store. I am ashamed on how you all have allowed the store personnel to get so bad.

    I’ve always bought Otterbox cases for my phones and I’ve had defenders before. For some reason this missed the mark. A few weeks in without any reason the outer plastic frame piece started cracking and basically broke in all 4 corners. I returned it and bought the Symmetry which I like but really wanted more protection for my phone.

    Very disappointed that this case no longer has a screen protector. It was a great case prior to the changes. Unfortunately I returned the case as I was expecting the same quality as previous Defenders. Like the old saying, “If it ain’t broke don’t fix it”

      Hey, Chris!

      We're sorry to hear about your disappointment with your Defender Series Pro case. After extensive design testing, our engineers determined that the best way to interact with the advanced display of this device was without the addition of a built-in screen protector. That being said, our tests have shown that this case provides the same level of drop protection as Defender Series cases of the past. We'll be sure to get your feedback passed up the ladder to our design team. We hope you choose to give OtterBox another chance in the future!

      Hello,

      We're sorry to hear about the damage to your device while it was in a Defender Series Pro. While our cases are tough, there are still some variables that can't be predicted. Though we can't extend our warranty to the device itself, we'd be more than happy to get you taken care of with a replacement OtterBox. Please don't hesitate to reach out to our helpful team of Customer Service Otters at 1-855-688-7269, and we can get your claim started.

      Hi there.

      We're sorry to hear about your disappointment with your Defender Series Pro case! Our engineers have done extensive testing on the viability of having a built-in screen protector on cases for these newest devices, and they've found that it would lead to sub-optimal screen interaction. Since our goal with cases is to provide unfettered access to the functions and features of your device, we decided it was best to forego the built-in display protection. That being said, this Defender Series case is just as protective as its predecessors. Additionally, if you're looking to add an extra level of protection and make this case tougher than any Defender Series you've had in the past, this case is totally compatible with Amplify and Alpha Glass.

      Give us a ring at 1-855-688-7269 if you have any questions about those protection options.

      Sorry to hear your Defender Pro Series case hit a structural snag not long after you started using it. Hopefully it was at least taking care of business in terms of helping to keep your iPhone safe from harm when the damage occurred, but however it went down, we'll be glad to help get you a fresh start with a brand-new warranty replacement!

      We're sorry to hear you're not a fan of the overall aesthetics of the Defender Pro Series case in our Black colorway. Although this one isn't quite matching your vibe, we do make a ton of different case options in many different colors, so perhaps it's worth having a closer look at some other possibilities. Best Buy carries a wide variety of our stuff, and you can also take a look at our full lineup over on our official website.
