Customers are saying

Customers are delighted by the Defender Series Pro Case's exceptional protection and high-quality construction. Many appreciate the case's snug fit and stylish design, while some find it a bit bulky or heavy. The lack of a screen protector is a common point of concern for customers. A belt clip is a welcome addition for some users.

    Doesn’t protect the whole phone. It’s good for dropping small distances but not for protection from dust and water.

      Hey ky2k,

      We sincerely apologize that you're feeling slightly let down by this Defender Series Pro for the iPhone Xs Max! This case is intentionally engineered to provide the best drop protection possible, as well as an antimicrobial defense. Unfortunately, the unit does not claim to offer extreme dust protection, or any waterproof protection. If you have any additional questions on this, please feel welcome to call our reliable Otters at 1-855-688-7269. They're always thrilled to help out!

      Sincerely,
      OtterBox Customer Service Team otterbox

      Hey Axceus,

      We don't want to jump to assumptions here, but based on your review, it sounds like you might be looking for a case that provides slim security while also showing off the Apple logo on the back of the device. If this is the case (pun intended), then we think we might have the perfect thing for you!

      We apologize that the Defender Series Pro didn't end up checking all of your boxes, but going forward, we might suggest taking a look at our Commuter series. The Commuter is sleeker than the Defender Series Pro, and also sports a vanity window on the back specifically built for the Apple symbol. Check it out by clicking on the link below, and if you have any questions, our awesome Otters are just a call away at 1-855-688-7269!

      Hey Ron8283,

      Our apologies that you're feeling unhappy with the screenless style for this Defender Series Pro! We decided to deviate from the traditional path with this model in order to maintain full device functionality with the device, especially with the curved display. We didn't want customers to feel like they would have to choose between successfully using their phone, or protecting it.

      Not to worry - you can be certain that this case still passed all of our extensive tests to ensure maximum drop protection. If you have any further inquiries or comments, please don't hesitate to reach out to us at 1-855-688-7269, and we'll always do what we can to help out!

      Sincerely,
      OtterBox Customer Service Team OtterBox
