    I like how it is skinnier than the regular defender. I don’t like how the case is not rubber like the Defender. It slips way to easy.

    The back was too slick for me (I’m used to the silicone defenders). Also didn’t feel like there was enough of a camera lip

      Hi there!

      We're sorry to hear about your disappointment with your Defender Series Pro XT! We appreciate your feedback about the grip of your case, and we'll be sure to get your thoughts passed along to our engineers. If you're looking for a case with a bit more grip, we'd suggest checking out our standard Defender Series Pro case as it has a grippy outer slipcover. Keep in mind, our standard Defender Series cases are not designed for optimal performance with MagSafe. If you have any questions, feel free to call us at 1-855-688-7269, and we can get you helped out.

    SLIPPERY BACK AND EXPENSIVE

    Ive had a few Otter Box defender cases on my previous phones and they have been great durable protective cases with rubber back covers. This case should not have the defender name associated with it. It is a thin plastic case with no rubber back cover. this case seems to offer limited protection and is slippery without the rubber cover. I returned the case and got a regular defender case without mag safe. Also the price is too high for what it is

    I’ve been using the Otter Box cases for many years and I was very disappointed with this case. I do not feel like this case would protect my phone. It’s a very thin case and it leaves the camera exposed. Not worth the $70+ purchase. I purchased the Otter Box Series Pro Case - thin but a much better feel and the camera is not exposed.

    Not happy difficult to open! Only choice was black so does not stand out when I am looking for my phone. Will have to find a good sticker to help with that! Need more colors!! I feel like the box is not tight enough for the phone as it does not recognize a swipe. Sometimes it takes me 6-7 swipes before it will open.

      Hi there!

      We're sorry to hear that you're not happy with your Defender Series Pro XT with MagSafe! We appreciate your feedback about the difficulty opening the case, and we'll be sure to let our design team know about your experience. It's odd to hear that you're having trouble with the screen of your device, as this case keeps the front open for direct access to your screen. If you continue having issues with that, feel free to call us at 1-855-688-7269, and we can get you helped out.

    Works fine for my teenage son. We’ve always keep a case on his phone, so far he has broken any of his phones.

      Hi there,

      We're sorry to hear your Defender Series Pro XT case wasn't a good fit for you. We'd recommend picking up one of our thinner cases, like the Symmetry Series+ with MagSafe. This OtterBox is a slim one-piece design that's fully compatible with the MagSafe feature on the latest iPhones. While being thin, this product is up to the task of safekeeping your device. Feel free to give us a ring at 1-855-688-7269 with further questions or comments.

    This is a rebranded Pursuit case, and that case stunk. Otterbox shouldn’t be calling this a Defender. Will be returning

      We appreciate the candid feedback, though we were certainly sorry to learn that you've such a low opinion of the Defender Series Pro XT case. Although this particular model does vary from our standard Defender Series in order to accommodate Apple's MagSafe accessory ecosystem, you can rest assured that it will be up to the challenge of helping to keep your iPhone safe from harm. Regardless, it appears your plan is to move on, but if you have any questions about our other options, please feel welcome to give us a call at 1-855-688-7269 and we'll always be happy to talk shop!
