      We're very sorry to learn about your unfortunate experience with the Defender Series Pro XT case for your iPhone 13/12 Pro Max. While we design our cases to minimize the risk of damage, there are variables that can influence the outcome of any drop or fall that we're unable to prevent. As far as the magnet goes, we specifically designed that piece with Apple's MagSafe technology in mind and it should work seamlessly with any of our MagSafe chargers or accessories.

      We can't extend our warranty to the device itself, as we aren't the manufacturer. We'd be more than happy to help with a brand new case though. Please give our customer service team a ring at 1-855-688-7269 with any questions or if you'd like a new case.

      Kindly.

      We're sorry to hear you're having such an unusual and discouraging experience with the wonky interaction between your iPhone's side controls and the Defender Series Pro XT case. Unless there's some type of device/case mismatch, all of the features of your device should still be accessible, so this is a curious situation to be sure.

      Please feel welcome to give our friendly Otters a call at 1-855-688-7269, and we'll be glad to dig in and help solve the mystery to make sure your iPhone will get properly covered for maximum protection AND performance going forward!

      Happy Holiday Season,

    It says 5x tried military drop but to me it seemed to hit hard when setting on the counter compared to the regular defender case I have always bought in the past. Returned and got the regular defender.

      Thanks for the feedback on the Defender Series Pro XT case. Although we definitely did put the design through our rigorous Drop+ Protection program to ensure it would be up to the challenge, the outer synthetic rubber slipcover of the standard version of the case wasn't going to accommodate Apple's MagSafe technology so there definitely are some material differences.

      Glad to hear you landed on a model that will for you. Please give us a call at 1-855-688-7269 if we can ever be of Otter assistance and we'll always be happy to help!

    Otterbox is usually a good quality brand to buy but not this time. Phone case is falling apart after 2 months. Not what you’d expect for a $70 case. Returned an iPad Pro case because it was flimsy too.

We're sad that you ended up returning your cases, but we hope you choose to give OtterBox another chance in the future.

    Too slippery, too expensive at $70. I initially liked the color combination of blue and green that was why I bought it. There is very minimum grip on the sides and the rest is all slippery plastic all around. The grip sides gets discolored easily and its very hard to wipe or wash off any discoloration from normal everyday dirt. WISH I COULD TAKE IT BACK AND GET A DIFFERENT OTTERBOX. NOT WORTH OVER $70 PERIOD. I REGRET BUYING IT.

      So sorry for any trouble you might have had with the Defender Series Pro XT case for your iPhone 13/12 Pro Max. We specifically designed this case with Apple's MagSafe technology in mind, so this is a bit surprising to hear. The magnet imbedded within this case was made to work seamlessly with any of our MagSafe products. Are you using one of our MagSafe chargers or accessories with this case? We'd also like to mention that since we don't perform any third party testing, we're unable to guarantee the compatibility between our case and another company's product. It sounds like you've already made the choice to move on from this case, but please feel free to give our awesome Otters a call at 1-855-688-7269 with any questions or if you'd like to chat about this some more.

      Cheers,
      OtterBox Customer Support OtterBox
