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.

    I've had an Otterbox on the past 3 phones that I've owned, and the S8+ was definitely no different. I was very skeptical when I saw that this case did not have the build in screen protector, but once I installed the phone in the case, those worries lifted right away. (I also purchased a liquid ID screen protector just to protect against scratches). The case is slim and fits well in my pocket. The belt clip doubles as a stand to watch video on the phone. Overall, very happy with my purchase!

    For years I have purchased these cases and the past couple phones that I have not purchased an otter box case for phones got dropped and broke. I am now back to purchasing the Defender series cases and will not go without one again. Was surprised when I seen they didn't have the screen protector like when I first started buying them so now I did have to buy a ZAGG screen protector. Will continue to buy these cases as long as they are on the market.

    I'm giving this one 4 stars bc I'm disappointed that they have stopped producing the fully encased defender series. My old otterboxes saved many devices from many drops and slides! Love the new color selection! They are staying up with trends. I'm a little nervous should I accidently drop my new s8 plus bc this case does not feel as though it offers the same shock and drop protection as the earlier boxes. I have yet to drop it, however, once that unfortunate event occurs, I'm hoping that otter box pulls through. I might be adding the lifeproof to go with a full case on this one down the road.

    I like it a lot but took off one star because the case as expensive as it is, doesn't come with any kind of screen protector and I thought otter boxes usually do.

    Wow What happend OtterBox!

    I am an avid buyer of OtterBox for all of my electronic devices for the past few years. But this was the first time I was extremely disappointed. The fact that this devise has no screen protector attached to the case. Best Buy’s description stated that it had a screen protector this was the main reason for the purchase. I am not sure who to blame. I ended up spending an extra $40.00 on a screen protector for my new Samson Galaxy S8 plus. This incident will not deter me from future purchases with OttterBox but I will definitely be second guessing the qualities of the merchandise.

      Hey there NJDRAGON2000,

      We deeply apologize about any miscommunication surrounding our screenless design for the Galaxy S8+ Defender! We sincerely feel that our customers will have the best interaction with the uniquely curved infinity display via either direct contact or use of the tempered glass screen protector, without the hindrance of anything built into the case itself. Should you run into any further OtterBox questions, please feel welcome to contact our wonderful Otters at 1-855-688-7269, and they'll be thrilled to help out.

      Best,
      OtterBox Customer Service Team otterbox

    Great case except for not having a built in screen protector. Also, some issues with wireless charging which is probably because of the thickness of the case.
