Outside case is fine, inside case is flimsy
It's the 3rd one I've bought in 3 years-the outside case is fine but the inside one is far too flimsy and disintegrates in just a few months. My phone's okay so I guess it's doing its job?You should let me be your tester

Delicious! Sexy and empathetic
If you want to box your otter up and throw some technology into the mix, maybe something like a cellular telephone…If so, this is the case for you! Also come with large clip thing that hurts if you put it on your bottom lip.

Could be heavier duty
It’s works but the plastic clip/holder does not hold the phone in well enough. The old ones were much better.

Durable and beautiful color
I love that the durability of the case, but I was disappointed that it didn't have a screen protector as part of the case. I have always had Otterboxes for all of my devices and they came with a screen protector. Other than that, Otterboxes will always be my choice for device protection.

Hello! We are so sorry to hear that the installation process did not go as well as one would hope. The Defender Pro Series case is not waterproof, but it does have amazing rugged protection. If you feel that the events of installation would necessitate a warranty replacement of the case, please reach out to our CS Team by phone or via chat, and we are happy to help with this!

Otterbox Pro Case
Great product that I have used for years. I have never broken a phone by dropping it as long as I had the Otterbox cover on!

Tradeoffs
Seems like a good, protective case. Was not intuitive as to how to get the case on the phone and there were no instructions. Fortunately, I found a good video. It was easy to do. More cumbersome to reach the charging port and the silencers but that seems a fair trade off for a case that is supposed to be very protective. Like the blue color.

Hello, Dick! We’re sorry to hear about your damaged device. Our cases are very protective, but some variables can’t be predicted. We’re happy to send a new OtterBox product under our product warranty, but we are unable to extend our warranty to the device itself, as we are not the manufacturer. Please give us a call at 1-855-688-7269 with any questions or if you’d like a new case.

What happened?
What happened to the Otterbox defender phone cover that I used to buy? I bought a new one today for my new IPhone and was so very disappointed at how thin and less protective the screen and camera was. I did buy a screen protector but I am still nervous about dropping it.

Very disappointed
Having purchased OtterBox cases & holsters theough many generations of iPhones I have to say that this is the first one that I’m very disappointed with. The case fit is just so-so, a bit loose in spots. The holster? Just horrible! I’m on my second holster, this one a warranty replacement for the first poorly fitting one. The issue is that they do not grip the phone case...

Not the longest lasting case ever
Nice case, but the charger door hinge just snaps off after about a year of normal use

Weak belt clip
The phone case itself is very good, slim and comfortable. However, the belt clip is very weak in terms of gripping the phone. The edges are quite slim and it is very difficult to secure it. My phone has slipped of the belt holster several times without no reason. I have owned previous versions of the defender clip and case and they were awsome. This time I am dissapoint...

I love the Otterbox defense pro, great protection, but you guys could make the camera cutout bigger so you can use any camera protector

We're very happy to hear that you've been a big fan of the Defender Series Pro case for your iPhone 14 Pro so far. We work hard to provide some of the most rugged protection available and the Defender Series Pro is one of our most popular case options.
As far as that wireless charging goes, we've thoroughly tested and confirmed that this case will work seamlessly with any of our Qi wireless chargers. However, since we don't perform any third party testing, we're unable to guarantee the compatibility between our case and another company's charger. We appreciate you taking the time to share this feedback with us though. Please give our friendly Otters a ring at 1-855-688-7269 with any questions or if you'd like to chat about this some more.
Cheers,
OtterBox Customer Support
