Customers are saying

Customers frequently mention the excellent protection and ease of use offered by the Defender Series Pro Case. Many appreciate the case's good fit and quality, along with its attractive colors and inclusion of a belt clip. However, some find the case bulky and heavy, and the lack of a screen protector is a common complaint. The installation process is also mentioned as a potential point of difficulty for some users.

    I like this item it’s only found at Best Buy. I have an XR iPhone and this case works great when I am pocketing because it has a clip that covers the screen. I do t use the clip but like the screen covered. I have a screen protector that fits with this case well. It’s large for excellent protection unparalleled. Look at the specs on the otter boxes and see this is unique.

    I always buy otterbox defender cases for my kids devices. I went to best buy specifically because the online description of the case stated “built in screen protector safeguards against dust grime and scuffs”. Reading that made me think the screen protector, that goes over the screen, was built in just like every other defender case I have purchased. WRONG! THIS CASE COMES WITH NOTHING THAT GOES OVER THE SCREEN! I was pretty disappointed in otterbox’s decision to not make a case for the xr with screen protection.

      Hi there!

      We're sorry for any confusion, and we appreciate you bringing this to our attention! We're working with Best Buy to get this information fixed.

      As for the decision to remove that screen protector, our engineers determined that the best way to interact with the screen if this device was without the addition of built-in screen protection. If you're interested in additional screen protection with your case, we'd suggest checking out Alpha Glass here: https://www.bestbuy.com/site/otterbox-alpha-glass-series-polyester-screen-protector-for-apple-iphone-xr-clear/6339350.p?skuId=6339350

      If you have any questions about your case or our screen protectors, please give us a ring at 1-855-688-7269, and our CS Otters can get you helped out.

    Great protection for rugged use. Would have given 5 stars if it had a screen protector. This model is “screenless”, so I will have to purchase an additional protector for the screen.

    Otter box are the beat phone cases period - I have had 5 different iPhones in assorted otter box cases - all have survived way way way too many drops onto floors, tile and concrete ... and a few splashdowns while fishing/boating/hunting - all my old iPhones still function !!! I just Don’t understand all the people with broken/cracked screens etc - get an otter box stupid !

    This case provides excellent protection typical of otter box, but is a little too bulky and makes the phone seem heavier than it should.

      Hi gah7v,

      Sorry to hear that this Defender Series Pro seems a little too cumbersome for your style! If you're looking for something that still provides that typical excellent protection, but in a slimmer style, we would recommend taking a peek at our Symmetry series. The Symmetry incorporates a sleek, one-piece design that securely wraps around your iPhone. Feel free to check it out via the link below, and if you have any questions, just direct them to our friendly Otters at 1-855-688-7269!

    Solid layered construction provides excellent protection from drops, and good hand hold. The belt clip style is somewhat uncomfortable due to pressing into skin above belt line.

    I purchased this for my new IPHONE XR. Because the XR is much bigger than my old IPHONE 7 it really can’t fit in a pocket and be readily available. This case allows me to put the case on my belt and have it easy to release from the case when I needed to use the phone. The plastic case on the phone also offers great protection against dropping the phone. I am glad I made the purchase.
