Customers are saying

Customers are enthusiastic about the Defender Series Case's great protection and snug fit for their Samsung Galaxy Note8. Many appreciate its ease of use and the added grip it provides, while some also find the included belt clip convenient. However, a significant number of customers point out the lack of a built-in screen protector and some concerns regarding bulkiness and price.

      Hi Iota,

      We certainly apologize about any apprehension caused by our screenless approach to the Galaxy Note 8 Defender series! We truly feel that our customers will experience the best interaction with the curved phone display via either direct contact or use of a tempered glass screen protector. If you're still searching for a little extra protection upfront, so to speak, we would recommend our Alpha Glass, which is cut specifically to work with the Defender case! Feel free to take a peek by following the link below, and if you have any additional inquiries, our Otter experts are just a call away at 1-855-688-7269.

    Protects the phone pretty well. The only real complaint so far is with the flap that covers the power port. It is a bit too tough.
