Customers commend the Defender Series Pro Hard Shell for Apple iPhone 13 Pro Max and iPhone 12 Pro Max for its excellent protection, fit, grip, ease of use, and overall case quality. Some customers find the belt clip unfashionable and the case a bit bulky. Others mention the price is a little high compared to similar products, and some would prefer it included a screen protector and better wireless charging compatibility. Despite these minor drawbacks, many appreciate its lightweight design.

IMO one of the best heavy duty cases on the market. I've used Otter Box cases exclusively for years. The one thing I don't care for is the belt clip that comes with the Defender. The case itself is bulky (out of necessity) and the clip makes it worse. The clip I just toss in a drawer.
It isn't very attractive either but "pretty" isn't going to save your phone when you drop it for the 25th time.
If you want tough phone case and don't mind a little extra bulk, this is the case for you.

Strongest Protector Ever

Otter box is the best phone protector ever. I dropped my phone from 21 ft. my iPhone didn’t get any damage. It landed on the back side. I don’t think it would have protected the screen if it had landed screen face down. Still, this is a really strong cell phone protector. I’ve been buying Orterbox for 7 years straight and dropped my phones on concrete many times and never had any damages to any phone.
Worth the price!
However, they keep going up and I’m starting to not like that a bit.

I always feel compelled to find the best protection for the phones I invest a lot of money in. I start with the Otterbox first, then look at some others just to feel confident that I’m getting the best. I always seem to go back to the otterbox. This Otterbox was no exception. I was in no way disappointed after installing it on the iPhone 13 Pro Max. It fits perfectly. It has raised ridges to protect the screen and camera lenses. I have no concerns that it will slip from my hand. I have complete confidence that my phone is protected.

Great product. It fit great for my phone. Try it you’ll like it. It protects my phone and I don’t have to worry if I drop it that it will break. It won’t break. Everyone should get one to protect their phone. I love it. It’s the best product around.

My husband loves the case. Has protected it well and has a charging port cover which is very important to him as he’s had issues with charging ports not working after a while from lint & dust.

Otterbox cases have always been awesome, but especially the defender series for me. But unfortunately the belt clip needs to be re-engineered one gentle tug of push on the cell phone & it falls off

OtterBox hard case pro series for iPhones is an excellent choice. I left my iPhone on the back of my truck and forgot it was there. By the time I realized, I was going over 40mph and it flew off. When I returned and found it the case was incredible, it safes my IPhone.

After spending a ridiculous amount on an iPhone 13 it makes absolute sense to purchase this type of phone cover. The rubber grip of the phone with cover is great and the openings where the flaps are work well. The fit is perfect as it grips the iPhone as is was designed by apple.the buttons work well as my other Otter cases.
