    At first having no screen protector was awkward for me. But so far now I love it. It allows me to fully enjoy the colors and features of the phone screen without the awkward plastic screen protector. Best of both worlds.

    The case has a good feel to it with no slippery surfaces. It takes a little getting used to trying to clip the phone into the clip on holder that comes with the case, but once correctly in the holder it stays locked in.

    I've purchased OtterBox before for my other phone and never had a problem. This case fits great and is much lighter than expected.

    Dropped my phone several times and the case protected it. Note: does not come with glass protector and I have yet to find any tempered glass coverings that worked with the case or was any good with the touch screen.

    I am prone to drop my phone, so I definitely wanted an Otterbox Defender, I had one with my last phone, and was pleased with it. I was concerned about it being a screenless edition, but it has been no problem.

    I was disappointed to find that no screen protector was included with this case. I was used to my S7 case that had a protector. I notice smudges on the screen much more without the protector. This case is still sturdy and protects the phone well.

    With the limited hand grip I have, this cover it gives it a nonslip grip, and protects the phone if it accidently dropped.

    I really like this case. But I am unable to find a glass screen protector that works well. So I switched to a case that has a cover that I can close over the screen. What a pain! But I like my phone too much to go without protecting the screen.

    I love Otterbox and this case is just as dependable as the last ones I have purchased. Every non-QWERTY smartphone I have owned, has been placed in an Otterbox. I have dropped phones and thrown them and nothing has happened to any of my phones thanks to the Otterbox. I do miss the screen protector from older phone model defenders, but with the S8 having a curved screen, I can understand why it doesn't have one. Still, I would pick no other case to protect my phone.

    This case keeps my phone well protected. You can't successfully add a glass screen protector of any kind to this phone, but this case has a substantial lip at the top and bottom of the case, so it has saved the screen from many a fall. Only downfall is that on all my OtterBox cases, over time (1 to 1-1/2 years) the skin near the camera cutout ends up pealing, and once that happens, it's like a scab that you can't stop picking at.

    My 2nd Otterbox (1st was for a Galaxy S6). Functions and performs as expected. Same great quality. My only improvement would be if the phone sat in the cradle with the screen facing in rather than facing out when wearing with the belt clip.

    Otterbox is my go to for phone cases due to their track record of making a quality product. My only complaint for this product is that its a "screenless" version meaning that it doesn't have a screen cover which is kind of weird to me.
