    The case is good, sturdy, and doesn't add to much bulk to the phone for the protection your getting but there is no screen protection like previous OtterBox cases. I was expecting a screen cover on it and for that reason returned it, maybe it says it in the description or details and I missed it.

      Hi, Derek!

      We're sorry to hear about your disappointment with that new Defender Series screenless design. After exhaustive design testing, our engineers determined that the best way to interact with the advanced screen of your display was without the addition of a built-in screen protector. That being said, our tests have shown that this case provides the same level of drop protection as past Defender Series cases. We're bummed to hear that you ended up returning your case, but we hope you choose to give us another shot in the future!

      Best,
      OtterBox Customer Service Team OtterBox

    Like the case because it has a belt clip, but the phone will not wirelessly charge through the case. One of the main new features of this phone is the MagSafe charging. The case will not let you wirelessly charge at all, and you can’t even come close to MagSafe charging. Very expensive case to not get all the features to work.

      Hi there!

      We're sorry to hear about your disappointment with your Defender Series Pro! While this OtterBox was designed with Qi charging in mind, some charging bases will perform better than others. Additionally, we do recommend using OtterBox Power options for the best charging experience with a standard wireless charger. As for charging on MagSafe chargers, this is not designed for optimal performance with all MagSafe accessories. If that's something you're wanting, we'd suggest checking out our Defender Series XT with MagSafe here: https://www.bestbuy.com/site/otterbox-defender-series-pro-xt-for-apple--iphone--12-pro-max-black/6450261.p?skuId=6450261

    I’ve been buying the defender iPhone cases for some time now. It definitely lives up to its name. But with this case I’ve found their is a serious issue with the iPhone/ case clicks into the belt holder. I’ve had this phone in this case actually fall out multiple times so far. There is no “click” as it connects in so I’m always checking to make sure it’s hasn’t dropped off. Not exactly what I prefer, this should be addressed

    With the cost of the new iPhone being so expensive, I wouldn’t trust any other case to protect it. I’ve had Otter Box for years and I’ll admit my phones have taken a few hits on the floor and asphalt. However, they’ve never been damaged from these falls. Would highly recommend.

    This is for my new iPhone 12 Max phone and now my third Otterbox case since that is all I ever purchase for my phones. It is the best case out there and I have never had an issue with any of them. They are tough, durable, and aesthetically the best choice.

    I have had Otter box cases for my last 4 phones I like the Defender the most because it comes with the belt clip and it is very Secure the only time my old phone ever fell out was my fault I didn’t make sure it was clip in all the way and when it did fall out nothing was damaged

    Very good case. Only thing about Outterbox is it is very thick and makes the overall hold of the phone feel very big. It does protect very well with drops and the belt clip holder is strong and holds the phone tight without having to worry about your phone falling out.
