Customers are saying

Many find that the case fits easily in their pocket and appreciate its ease of use. However, some customers have noted that the case can be a bit bulky and have experienced some trouble with wireless charging, while others have expressed disappointment with the absence of a built-in screen protector.

    I was disappointed that the newer versions do not come with glass protection anymore but the price was just as much as before.

    Strong case but a bit bulky in size for me. Hard to place in Womens pockets.

      Sorry to hear the Defender Series Pro case is feeling a bit too substantial for your needs and taste. This model definitely sports our most rugged profile, but we do make a bunch of other ones that are more streamlined and might be more to your liking, such as the Symmetry Series case.

      You can take a closer look at that option right here at Best Buy through the link below, and feel free to give our friendly Otters a call at 1-855-688-7269 with any questions, and we'll always be happy to chat!

    You can't go wrong with an otterbox defender. I use them for drop protection. I'm not hard on my phone but I am clumsy and tend to drop it. A lot. I wish they were more durable. Mine typically last two years to three years. Just in time to pay my phone off lol

    It protected my phone from many drops and by that I mean no cracks or serious damage, but the plastic innards gave the stainless steel corners of my phone nasty nicks. I would recommend another case that does not have plastic inner shell as the last line of defense against drops.

    It’s a really nice case. I did find the pink/purple combination wasn’t exactly to my liking so I ended up buying a all black case and just swapped out the pink plastic for the black plastic and it looks great. But that’s just me.

    My wife didn’t want to change from the iPhone 11 to the 12 because she already had a purple case for the 11. Found this one on bestbuy web and got t for her. Now she has the iPhone 12. Simple things to keep her happy.

      Hi Paob,

      We're bummed to hear this Defender Series Pro case didn't work out for you this time around. If you're looking for something more streamlined, we'd recommend our Symmetry Series. Please feel free to check it out on our OtterBox website. In the meantime, if you have any further questions or concerns, please feel free to give us a call at (855) 688-7269 and we'd be happy to help.

      Hi there!

      We're sorry to hear about your disappointment with your Defender Series Pro! While that case is compatible with Qi charging pads, it is not designed for optimal functionality with MagSafe accessories. That being said, we have a sizeable lineup of OtterBox cases that we designed specifically to interact with Apple's MagSafe ecosystem. Those cases are coming soon to Apple and OtterBox.com! Sign up for email updates about those cases here: https://www.otterbox.com/en-us/iphone-12-pro?prefn1=featuresRefinements&prefv1=MagSafe
