Heavy duty case, clip holds phone easily
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've never used otter box as I thought they were bulky, but appears that it has scaled backed the bulkiness, but kept the safety features
I would recommend this to a friendBig Upgrade from Galaxy 4S
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am still learning this phone. One difference between this phone an the 4S is that the 4S seemed to have a longer BT range than the Galaxy 8.
I would recommend this to a friendGood protection for my phone
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am very hard on phones and usually destroy a phone a year. Since I started using the Otter Box it now takes about 2 years to destroy a phone.
I would recommend this to a friendGreat case
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I never likes the OtterBox cases because I thought they were to thick but this new one for my S8 is great. It's thinner than the older models.
I would recommend this to a friendOk case
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The case itself is OK the retention on the belt clip is far from what I expected compared to older model otter boxes Also not a fan of the screenless design of the case

Posted .Hi Stevo!
Sorry to hear that the Galaxy S8 Defender series isn't quite meeting expectations! What exactly about the belt clip is giving you pause? Our friendly Otters would love to take a peek to see if they can help, so please feel free to give them a ring at 1-855-688-7269. They'll resolve this issue and even send out a warranty replacement, if necessary.
As for the screenless design, we intentionally decided to forego the traditional built-in screen protector in order to provide full access to the uniquely curved display on the Galaxy S8. If your heart is set on screen protection, we would recommend the Alpha Glass screen protector, which applies separately to the screen and is engineered to work seamlessly with OtterBox cases. Feel free to check it out by following the link below, and reach out to us if you have any further inquiries!

Worth every dime!

I would recommend this to a friendVery good case
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very good case tho there was no built in screen protection for it like I’m use to from otter box but it seems to be doing the job so for.
I would recommend this to a friendVery well built case
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very well built case for the phone it is the back up to my soon coming lifeproof case. I am hoping it feels as sturdy. But screen protector comes off with this case as well.
I would recommend this to a friendWorks as expected.

I would recommend this to a friendClip Problem
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had the Otterbox Defender for the Galaxy S6 edge and had no problems. The clip for the Galaxy S8 lets go of the phone every now and then. So far no damage, but...
I would recommend this to a friendGood Case
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was a little nervous about not having a screen protector but haven't run into an issue yet. Sturdy case with relatively slim design.

||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love the case just wished there was a defender with a built in screen protector but the case itself does not feel bulky like previous ones
I would recommend this to a friendBest case
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've had 4 different smart phones over the last 6 years and always had otter box on them. Phone was like new when it came time to sell it.
I would recommend this to a friendVery good BUT.....
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I like Otter Box Products and this one is well developed but there is no screen protection with this type of device that is the biggest downfall of this onproducts
I would recommend this to a friendGood case
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have yet to drop my phone or crack the screen however the last phone case I had didn't help when I was moving and broke my screen.
I would recommend this to a friendGreat product with one minor flaw
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I like the way this product works. I just have an occasional problem with getting the phone to align so that it latches in.
I would recommend this to a friend- Pros mentioned:Protection
Good Case
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good case, seems as though it would protect the phone from most damage in a drop. Leaves screen relatively unprotected.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from OtterBox Customer Support
Posted .Hey Thxzz,
It's great to hear that this Defender series is ready to keep your Galaxy S8 safe on the streets! We apologize that you're feeling a little apprehension towards the screenless style. The case was intentionally designed that way in order to give you full access to the rounded infinity display. If you're looking for a little extra peace of mind, we would suggest our Alpha Glass screen protector, which will pair perfectly with that Defender. Feel free to check it out via the link below, and if you have any additional questions, our Otter experts are just a call away at 1-855-688-7269!
