Too expensive and still ended with a cracked phone

OtterBox lasted less than a year and paid almost $40 to still end up with a cracked phone. The back of the phone was creaked and I had not realized it until we took it out of it to clean one day. It was too expensive to not serve its purpose, could have just bought a cheaper case online

Have owned a Defender series for every phone and they have all been great. This particular one was a let down. The hinges broke off while running and cause the phone to hit the pavement. Although the phone sits under for protection my screen was cracked

I tried and tried but could not get my iphone xr to fit in the case. I tried even heating the plastic to stretch it a little. I don't know how others are able to get their iphone in the case. I did have the Otterbox for the iphone 6plus and it was easy to fit my phone into the case.

Hi James,
We apologize that this Defender series ended up seeming a little larger than life for your preferences! If you're looking for a case that offers slimmer security, we would suggest taking a glance at the Symmetry series, which might be more up your alley. Feel free to check it out via the link below, and give our friendly Otters a call at 1-855-688-7269 with any additional questions!

These are "supposed to be guaranteed for life. That is if you expect life to be less than 6 months. Had to get store manager over to approve the swap for a new one and then the "new" case broke.

Hi Clayt,
We're so sorry to hear that you seem to have lost faith in the iPhone XR Defender Series Pro! Our products are pretty tough, but occasionally, they can take some damage in the line of duty. Because of this, we have a pretty awesome warranty so that you can get back to peak levels of protection as soon as possible!
Understanding your frustration towards the shipping and handling fee associated with the warranty program, we would only point out that our primary goal is to make sure that your iPhone XR will be well protected going forward, and we are merely trying to work together to achieve this end. Although we are more than happy to take on the responsibility of the replacement case itself, we do feel that the cost associated with getting it to you is a modest investment to help maintain the security of your device. If you have any further questions or change your mind about the warranty, please feel welcome to call our friendly Otters at 1-855-688-7269, and they'll be delighted to help you out!
Sincerely, OtterBox Customer Service Team

It's a thick case. I drop my phone all the time and my phone still looks brand new because of this case.
