Hi WhiteRabbit,
We're glad to see that you're loving the streamlined style of this Google Pixel 3 XL Defender series! While the lack of the traditional built-in screen protector may seem weird at first, rest assured that this case was specifically designed to complement the curved display. Going forward, you'll be able to enjoy premium protection as well as full device functionality! If you run into any future inquires, feel free to direct them to our awesome customer service team at 1-855-688-7269. They're always happy to help!
Best, OtterBox Customer Service Team

Amazing phone! I was previously only an iPhone user, so the switch to a different phone was scary but I love almost everything about it! There is a little bit of a learning curve but once you figure it out it's comparable to the iPhones in a lot of features.

OtterBox is OtterBox. I'd like for it to be waterproof but LifeProof isn't available yet. It's a very nice case but only protects from drops.

I have been using Otter Box brand cases for a few years now and have never had a broken one while my phone or tablet was in the case. I have dropped it from on top of motorhomes and travel trailers and not even a scratch.

(Pixel 3XL) The case was putting pressure on the phone screen, leaving the two bottom corners of the expensive protective glass I bought unable to adhere. Withing 24 hrs the glass broke due to the strain of the curve.
I went back the next day to have this corrected. They put a new glass on and put the case back on, same problem... So I had to buy a thinner case to be sure I had screen protection.
Also, I bought this with the intention of wireless charging (pixel brand)- it will not work. Charges at about a rate of 2% per hour. When I came into the store the sales clerk had mentioned that it might work on a wireless charger which laid flat so we tried a Samsung on display. Once again we got the 'slow charging' notification. Wireless charging isn't possible with this case.

Hey TLC4627,
We're so sorry to hear that this Defender series didn't end up becoming best friends with your Google Pixel 3 XL like we expected! By any chance, were you using this case in conjunction with one of our Amplify or Alpha Glass screen protectors? Unfortunately, since we are unable to test our products with third-party accessories, we cannot always guarantee that absolutely all exposure to risk will be eliminated through the use of our products. Our Amplify and Alpha Glass shields are specifically engineered with the Defender in mind, and we might suggest taking a peek at them going forward!
As for the wireless charging aspect, that particular case was actually tested to be compatible with most wireless chargers. Had you contacted our handy Otters, they would have been more than happy to set you up with a few troubleshooting tricks to fix this, but we also certainly understand your decision to head down a different path. We sincerely hope that this experience does not turn you away from OtterBox for good, and if you have any future questions or comments, please don't hesitate to reach out to us at 1-855-688-7269. We'll always do what we can to help out!
Sincerely, OtterBox Customer Service Team

I couldn't believe it. My phone fell and the case that was meant to protect it broke. My phone is fine. This case cost about $65 because it's supposed to be the best.

Hi there!
We're sorry to hear about the damage to your Defender Series case! Our cases are tough, but they aren't 100% indestructible. If your phone is still safe, we'll mark that one up as a win! The good news is, we have a stellar warranty just for instances like this. Give us a ring at 1-855-688-7269, and we can get your beat up case replaced.
Best, OtterBox Customer Service Team

This otterbox case is much better quality than the same case that I had for my original pixel phone. They keep improving and protecting!
