Customers are saying

Customers are pleased with the Defender Series Pro XT's excellent protection and high-quality build. Many appreciate the case's slim profile and how well it fits the iPhone 13, along with its compatibility with MagSafe. However, some users found the case challenging to install. A built-in screen protector was also suggested as a potential improvement.

    The longevity of this case is awful. The older otter box case designs lasted so much longer than this case does. Plus it’s extremely difficult and annoying to just put the case on.

    Case is good. But it's not easy to install - beware before you buy. I have to reach out to geek squad to get some help. The side grip and protection is good from front side also. Overall it's fair...not OK.

    I miss the rubber feel of my old defender. This hard shell stays clean. And I hope it is as durable when I drop it on the floor. Not going to test that. So I can’t give you an honest critique. It maybe.

    DOES NOT FIT iPhone 13 PRO!!!

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    This case does not fit the new iPhone 13 Pro (and doesn’t fit the 12 pro either). Body size is correct but Camera hole is wrong and device won’t go in. Ugh.

      Hi there, Rob!

      We're sorry to hear about any frustration with your Defender Series Pro XT with MagSafe! Keep in mind, the case that you're leaving a review on is for the iPhone 13 and not the iPhone 13 Pro, so it will not be compatible with your device. If you are shopping for that case in-store, make sure you're purchasing the one designated as the iPhone 2021 Large Pro and you'll be good to go! If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to reach out to our helpful Customer Service Team at 1-855-688-7269, and we can get you taken care of.

      Best,
