      So sorry to hear the Defender Series Pro XT case for your iPhone 14 Plus wasn't quite what you were hoping for. Were you able to separate the case into two piece before applying it to your device? We'll provide a link to our installation video for you below that we hope helps. We'd love to hear more of your thoughts on this case though. Please feel free to give our CS team a call at 1-855-688-7269 with any questions or if you'd like to chat about this some more.

      Ugh. Yes, definitely a mismatch between device and case with this one. This specific Defender Series Pro XT case will only be compatible with the iPhone 14 Plus rather than the iPhone 14 Pro Max you're looking to cover.

      Although the two devices share similar external dimensions, the backside cameras are completely different, so we have a distinct case for each. Hopefully you've already been able to work with Best Buy on an exchange for the correct unit. If we can be of any further assistance, please feel welcome to touch base with our friendly Otters through the following link and we'll always be happy to help!

    This item broke within 3rd day. Designed poor. I'm extremely careful with everything I own. Very thin plastic rectangular-type ring that fits inside case that snapped to pieces.

We know that you expect more longevity out of your OtterBox, but this is definitely surprising to hear. There's no need to worry though! We have our amazing product warranty in place to keep you covered when things go sideway like this. Please give our awesome Otters a ring at 1-855-688-7269 and they'd be more than happy to help get the ball rolling on your replacement case.

      Hey there! We're so sorry to hear the Defender Series Pro XT case isn't suiting your needs. Were you able to separate your case into two pieces before removing it or applying it to you device? This will make the application of your case much easier, but we also understand this case may just not be for you. If you're looking for a slimmer day-to-day case, you might want to check out our Symmetry Series+ case. Feel free to give our customer service team a call at 1-855-688-7269 with any questions or if you need any Otter assistance.

    It’s a pain in the —- to install. Watched the Otterbox installation video on YouTube. Demonstrator installed it in like 30 seconds. Took me 10 minutes and I felt stupid - until I saw other YouTube videos that said wasn’t easy and it took them 5 or 10 or 30 minutes and all actually explained how to do it. Great case; ridiculous to set up.
