Nice hard cased model. Unfortunately returned and kept the Lifeproof item I purchased at the same time. I wanted the waterproof feature for when I am on my boat. Looks like a nice product though.

Didn't like it as it is not waterproof. Design is poor as the case covers the headset opening. You cannot listen to music on your headset if the case is on. I would recommend Lifeproof case; it is expensive but water proof & has better engineered design.

Hi Kumar,
True, the Defender is not waterproof but you should have full access to the auxiliary port. There is a silicone port door there to keep dirt and dust out but you should be able to easily open that to plug in your headset. If you need assistance or have questions please do not hesitate to give our friendly Otters a call at 1-855-688-7269.
Best, OtterBox Customer Service Team

Hard plastic belt holder very unappealing. Heavy black canvas or something similar & soft would be more useful to me. This is my 2nd Otter box--my first protected my iPh4 during 5-6 years of abuse. Wdve liked to have a useable belt holder.

Always had iPhone's since GEN 1, wouldn't buy another phone if I had a million bucks. User friendly, easy to read display, and awesome cots make this the best phone on the market. I went out and purchased one for my mom, and she doesn't even like using cell phones, and she loves it. Would recommend this product to any apple head.

I had to replace the Otterbox the day after I got it due to the clip breaking off when I was getting into my car. I have now had it a month and the replacement has held up OK. The charger door is a bit of a pain to use, especially to get the cord out of- I try not to pull on the cord, for fear that it will pull out of the connector.

My lifeproof cases would only last about 12 months (which ironically is the length of their warranty) so I decided to use something else. This case has held up well so far and the belt clip is very sturdy.

We've always had Otter Box cases, so when we bought our son a phone, we insisted he have one as well. It's fallen off his bike onto the concrete several times and absolutely no damage to the phone.

Wrong size case for the phone. Correct size not available. Ordered it from ebay instead. I like the case that is the correct size. I would recommend the product IF it was the proper size for the phone.
