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.

    Great case but the rubber doesn't last long. After 3 weeks the rubber was ripping apart.

    The rubberized phone case gets five stars, but the belt clip gets one star. The clip just barely holds the phone. Any slight bump against something and the phone falls out.

    Purchased this for my mom and she loved having an Otterbox that was purple. Most are black but mom was excited to see a purple one so she asked for one for her new phone. So far it has protected her IPhone 12 max pro. We’ve always trusted the Otterbox brand and it’s nice to know they still do a great job protecting our phones!

      It's not like the Defender Series outer slipcover to lose its natural, snug form—especially after a mere seven months on the job— and we're sorry that you're struggling so. Fortunately, we've got an awesome warranty in place that will help cinch things down with a brand-new replacement that is sure to stand the test of time!

      Hi there!

      We're sorry to hear about your disappointment with that Defender Series Pro! While we designed this case to be completely compatible with OtterBox screen protectors, we can't guarantee compatibility with all screen protectors on the market. If you are using an OtterBox screen protection option, give us a call at 1-855-688-7269, and we can get you taken care of.

      Great to know the Defender Series Pro case has been taking care of business during that first year on the job, though we were sorry that the need arose for you to have to go out and buy another. In the future, if something comes up with the case, just give our friendly Otters a call at 1-855-688-7269 and we'll be glad to help get you a fresh start with a brand-new warranty replacement!

      Happy New Year!
