Instructions, Features
Instructions were not precise: I was in tears. Not each and every action is understood by those without smartphone experience. Holster was stupid: I need a velcro closed canvas pocket with belt loop not clips. I want a secure anchor point on the case through which i can run a tether

Phone belt clip
Phone comes out of the belt clip too easily. Had otter box clips before that were more resistant to coming out

Expensive- needs more features
Expensive without extra features. Needs a kickstand or finger loop. You can find so many other options these days with many more features that also offer drop protection. Otterbox may be sturdy but needs more offered for the $$$

Not as beefy, no screen protector, firm on phone
Not as strong as the old cases. Should have come with a screen protector. Fits snug and is firm once installed on the phone, should protect well.

Defender Otter Box for I Phone 17 Pro
The color was great. The quality of the defender is not as sturdy as my previous case I purchased 5 years ago.

I have used Otterbox covers and holsters for about 15 years on Apple phones and have always been confident in the quality and durability.

No screen protector
My prior I phone was well protected with otter box defender. Thus on my new iPhone I ordered the defender again but realized once I got it it doesn’t included the screen protector. Disappointed.

Rough and tough
Nothing better than this case for a journeyman roofer, and I’ve put it through a lot.

Excellent quality and superior protection as usual. The Defender series of cases are the best cases I've ever used!

Bad advertising
Product itself is fine. Purchase process was not. Feel like I was tricked into buying two cases.

OtterBox Defender Series
I purchased an OtterBox Defender series for my IPhone 17. I’ve used them for my last 3 or 4 iPhones. Great quality and extremely durable. It really protects my phone from an occasional fall out of my pocket. OtterBox offers great warranty service if needed. A great product at a fair price!
OtterBox is and always be my go to for phone protection…

Not so defensive case
My last defender case keep my iphone from all possible damage, my new otterbox defender case allowed the otterbox screen to crack with in a few days of using it with a iphone 17, new case has no plastic screen cover so damage will happen with the new otterbox defender case! so sad for what I paid for it!
