Posted .Hey rick,
We apologize that your Galaxy Note 9 isn't becoming best friends with this Defender series like we expected!

Please feel welcome to call our friendly Otters at 1-855-688-7269, and they'll be happy to help with some quick troubleshooting. You'll be back on track to smooth device security in no time at all!

Does not protect screen
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These worthless infinity displays aren't fully protected by any case. I wish Samsung would quit making phones like this
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from OtterBox Customer Support
Posted .Hey there,
We genuinely apologize that this Defender Series Pro doesn't seem to be matching up with your predictions! We intentionally decided to forego the traditional screen protector on this version in order to provide full device functionality with your infinity display. That being said, that case still went through extensive tests to ensure the best device protection possible, and we're fully confident that the unit should keep your Galaxy Note 9 safe no matter what device dangers come your way! If you have any additional questions or comments going forward, please feel welcome to call our friendly Otters at 1-855-688-7269, and they'll be thrilled to help out!

Posted .Hi HopingForBetter2,
We totally understand why you would expect that belt clip to have a longer expectancy than four days, and we're so sorry this one fell short this time around.
For safety reasons, our holsters were engineered with a safe breaking point so our customers don't get into sticky situations. The good news is we have a great warranty and we'd love to send you a brand-new belt clip which we trust will be better able to withstand the pressures of protection. Feel free to click on over to our Support/Warranty page, and we'll get you back on track to sturdy side security!

Too Big, Bulky

No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from OtterBox Customer Support
Posted .Hey nick,
Our apologies that this Defender Series Pro seems to be a bit bigger than expected! Although the extra layers on the case can add some rugged security, we certainly understand how sometimes, the unit can feel a little larger than life. If you're looking for something that still offers premium protection, just in a sleeker form, we would recommend our Symmetry series. The Symmetry has the power to stylishly dress up your device, while also keep it safe and secure! Feel free to check it out via the link below, and let us know if you have any questions by calling our friendly Otters at 1-855-688-7269!

Protective
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The otter case appears to be very protective. It is pretty bulky and adds some weight to an already heavy phone, but should be worth that downside. I got the charging station with the stand up section with the phone. You have to lay the phone vertically on the station to get it to connect. Once I figured that out, it's all good.
I would recommend this to a friend The boring, responsible coworker
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've been using this case for just over 3 months. It's been like working with a boring, responsible coworker everyday. They seem bland and then they save your butt a few times, and after awhile you grow to appreciate them. The case excels in drop protection and the material is great quality. I've dropped my phone a handful already and it seems like it would take a freak accident to damage my phone from a regular drop. The only downside for me was that it was the boring, nonexpressive option compared to other cases.
