Customers are saying

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.

    Good choice for iPhone protection. Ergonomic design fits the iPhone and your hand. Needs added protection for the camera lens on the back of the phone. The belt clip that comes with the case also breaks easily. Be ready to order cheap replacement clips online.

      Thanks for your interest in greater protection for the backside camera of your iPhone. That's something we're hearing quite a bit of lately, and we're definitely exploring options. As for that busted belt clip, we're sorry your Otter experience has hit a snag, but feel free to give us a ring at 1-855-688-7269 and we'll be glad to help get things all fixed up with a brand-new replacement to make sure your gear is secure by your side going forward!

      Cheers,

    Really disappointed in this Otter. Great protection yes, but my phone has fallen out of my belt clip 3 times. I’ve got the iPhone 13 pro max and the associate said that this Otterbox would work. I don’t mind paying the money for good protection but they could at least ensure the phone stays secure.

    The hard shell is exceptional...have dropped phone several times with no damage. Phone fell from belt clip each time. I tried to exchange for another clip, but all the belt clips were the same. it takes very little pressure to release phone from clip. if you don't remain diligent phone lose a real possibility

    The phone protector was definitely protective, however, it would neither charge on the MagSafe charging adaptor nor was the magnet inside the phone case strong enough to make any connection with the MagSafe charger — at all.

    I have purchased an Otterbox Defender case for every iPhone I have had going back to the iPhone 4. I love these cases. I purchased this one for an iPhone 13 Pro Max and the case does not stay in the belt clip. It pops right off. Please check your belt clip when purchasing this case.

    The case was alright, I’m use to the defender series of the 11 Pro Max, I didn’t feel my phone was as protected in this case. The sides of the case were flush with my phone screen, didn’t care for that much. Main reason I returned it was because it didn’t work with my wireless charger.

      Hi there!

      We're sorry to hear that you weren't feeling confident with your Defender Series Pro! Rest assured, that case has been through hundreds of hours of design testing to ensure it will keep your phone safe with the drop protection OtterBox is known for. While that case is compatible with Qi charging, some chargers will perform better than others, so a different charging base may work better for you. Additionally, we recommend OtterBox Power accessories for the best wireless charging experience. We're sorry to hear that you ended up returning your case, but we hope you find an OtterBox that checks all your boxes! If you have any questions, feel free to call us at 1-855-688-7269, and we'd be more than happy to get you helped out.
