Customers are saying
Customers express satisfaction with the Defender Series Case's excellent protection and comfortable fit, also praising its ease of use and the grippy texture. However, some customers note that the case adds bulk to the phone and may interfere with wireless charging. The lack of a built-in screen protector is also a frequently mentioned drawback.

OtterBox case
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Not your fault but OtterBox removed the screen protector from their cases. Thus forcing consumer to purchase an additional product.

Posted .Hey Iceman,
We truly apologize that you're not really feeling the screenless version of the Galaxy S8+ Defender series! It certainly was not our intention to evoke any frustration with this edition - in fact, quite the opposite, as we feel that our customers will have the best interaction with the curved display through direct interplay with the phone screen.
If you're still searching for a little extra protection upfront, so to speak, please don't hesitate to check out our Alpha Glass, which will match seamlessly with the Defender case! Take a peek by following the link below, and call our friendly Otters at 1-855-688-7269 with any further inquiries.

Not The standard Defender Series Case
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I manager 200+ lines for my employer and swear by Defender cases for all phones. This is the first case from OB without a screen protector builtin. There are screen protectors for this phone. Otterbox should supply one as since itis part of the Defender series. Otterbox is getting cheap, I will not buy another otterbox for S8 or S8+. The high cost of Otterbox Defender and you still need to buy screen protection.

Posted .Hi Bill7671,
We sincerely apologize that you're feeling so let down by the lack of a built-in screen protector for the Galaxy S8+ Defender series. We predicted that a plastic screen shield might interfere with touch sensitivity, and we understand the importance of having a crisp, clean interaction with your phone screen. Therefore, we decided to forego the traditional screen protector and offer a tempered glass solution instead. If you have any additional questions or comments on this, please feel free to call our reliable Otters at 1-855-688-7269, and they'll always do what they can to help out!
Sincerely,
OtterBox Customer Service Team
No screen protector
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This case is a good case if you want to buy a separate screen protector. I wouldn't recommend only because it doesn't have a built in screen protector.

I would recommend this to a friendNot bulky
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It's a pretty slim otter box compared to others that I've had in the past. I've dropped it a few times and it's withstood the falls.

||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My husband wasn't a huge fan of the thick material, but for an expensive phone the quality is great. The clip is perfect for work.

No screen cover
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Not sure why but would prefer a case that comes with a screen cover. Be prepared to spend almost $100 for a case and screen protector.

I would recommend this to a friendSeems to be a really good case.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love that I can turn my phone volume up and down as needed. On other cases it was hard. I love I can charge my phone and still listen to headphones while my case is still on.
I would recommend this to a friendBest case ever
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This phone case is by far the toughest- bought it the day i bought the phone and have never had to replace it
I would recommend this to a friendNice Case
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My wife loves purple and it goes well with Galaxy s8. Only thing I don’t like is no cover due to the curving of the phone.
I would recommend this to a friend- Pros mentioned:Protection
restricted access
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The case does what it is supposed to....protect the phone, but it makes it hard to use accessories. The jacks are somewhat blocked.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend Very nice case
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I like the ruggedness of this case as i always seem to be dropping my phone. The case also sits anywhere without rolling around
I would recommend this to a friendFully capable of protecting your phone
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased an OtterBox case for my previous Samsung. It served me well so I was not at all hesitant when I purchased my Galaxy S8+ to pair it with the OtterBox Defender case.
I would recommend this to a friendNice phone
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The phone has a awesome display and runs great. The only issue so far is screen protectors. With the curve screen, they pop off.
I would recommend this to a friend- Cons mentioned:Screen protector
Not as good as they used to be.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Otter Box does not come with the screen protector anymore. The cost you pay for the Otter Box plus screen protector is not worth it.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend - Pros mentioned:Protection
Good product but liked Platinum case better.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good product but liked Platinum case better. Doesn't make the phone quite so big/thick while still providing the desired protection.

Posted .Hi Dcubed,
We are sorry that the Defender case is a bit too bulky for your comfort level. Perhaps you would be more interested in our Commuter or Symmetry case as they are slimmer than the Defender. Check out the links below for more information on those OtterBox products.
