Very well made product as I would expect from an Otterbox. It is not as bulky as the Defender I had on my iPhone 6s. My only complaint is that it doesn’t have a screen protector built in like my old one. For the price I think it should be included or a bundle option should be available. Overall a great product.

This is the third generation iPhone I have bought the otter box defender pro for, and I have to say they have always been solid in protection. This iteration is no exception. It’s extremely robust and adds a little weight and girth to the phone, and to be honest, that’s a good thing. The iPhone 12 is really light and thin to the point where you even question the value of how much tech they put in the phone, but this case and belt clip reminds you that there is something there to protect. Get it.

I’ve used Otterbox cases for all my phones and will continue to use this brand because I feel it provides the necessary protection to keep my phone safe if I drop it. It is not bulky like years past and provides the grip to hold the phone securely. It was also on sale so it made me buying the case that much better.

Good protection, good price, unbeatable Costumer service. The gator box is a trusted must have for your phone, design wise it works however does need to be tweaked in terms of bulk.

The case is very durable. I like that it does not include the plastic built-in screen protector. It feels a lot cleaner that way. Altogether it is a rugged safe-feeling design that makes it so I don’t have to worry about dropping my device accidentally.

Looks and Protection :
The product is sturdy and it do cover the phone very well, by the looks it seems to be providing full protection, secure grip to avoid fall, camera bump well protected.
One can only tell if it protects the screen until being accidently dropped.
Issues : (-2 stars due to it )
The main issue that I am facing is with video voice quality being impacted due to this cover, while doing video call (not face time as the app itself holds a bug) the recipient often receive voice break. I tested the call quality to square out any network issue by doing video chat without the cover on or via Bluetooth headset while cover was on the phone and in both cases it works perfectly fine (no disturbance) so this cover is causing call quality issue for me, it seems somehow despite of the cut out given for the speaker area it do hinders the voice.
Secondly issue with precision of Cover. I ensured that clamps of inner plastic housing were secured in all places but still there is a little bit of loose or I would say a gap between the housing around volume button area, so you can feel that gap( squeezing sound) while pressing the cover around that area, it may be due to lack of precision while building this cover, or sadly I received this one off case with factory error.
I might go for replacing it or try out other covers here.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Hi Shobhit,
We're so sorry about the audio issues you've been running into with this Defender Series Pro case. Please double check that any "noise reduction" settings are disabled or set to "off". These settings often confuse internal reverberations with noise and end up muffling more than they should, such as actual speech. Please let us know if this works or if you are still having trouble with your case. Feel free to give us a call at (855) 688-7269
Best, obcst

The best phone case for protection as possible. Clips onto your belt, and snaps off easily, but not too easily, so that it falls down.

Case offers good protection, but is a little bulky. Rigid frame almost interferes with my Patchworks screen protector. Clearance is very tight and sometimes lifts the protector slightly at the edges. Robust clip mount allows phone to be supported face out only. Cover for the lightning connector seems to get in the way most of the time. I may eventually do an amputation to relieve stress on the narrow connecting support at the bottom of the case.

I previously used Life Proof cases and while O liked them they were prone to wearing out after several months of taking my phone in and out of my pocket. I am really happy with this case as it gives great protection but is also very comfortable to hold and has a grippy texture.

I have bought OtterBox Defender cases for my each of my iPhones over the years. My experience is that they do a perfect job of protecting my iPhones. I have dropped them on occasions and they have never failed to survive with no damage. They clip on my belt and are always available for use. They do add a little bit of weight but are not too heavy. I did manage to snap one off at the rotating clip and they quickly provided me with a replacement.

This OtterBox case does everything I can to protect my iPhone, and I appreciate it. But you need to get a glass protector. There is no glass covering.
