Good fit and very protective
The OtterBox went on easily and fits great. It appears that it will do a great job of protecting my new phone.

iPhone 17 Pro holster
The holster does not hold the phone securely enough and at times causes the phone to fallout at times. One time it fall out of the holster and I did not know and someone stopped me to inform me of the phone on the rugged floor.

Owner
Terrible design, I’m in construction and the telephone screen is open to damage because of outward facing screen design holster. Was 100% better when the phone was installed with the screen facing the holder and protected by the holder.

Otterbox is great
I got the clear defender with black rubber edges. My one and only complaint is the phone clips into the holster loosely. My phone has fallen out a couple times and I’ve only had it a few weeks.

Not as secure as previous versions
I bought the Otter Box defender before the belt clip. They do not snap together as securely as previous ones I have had

Bulky Holster
Initially I was excited to receive this but after having it on the phone for a couple of days I removed it as it was way too bulky for my liking. For a guy who would attach it to his pants buckle it would be fine. For a woman it took up too much room in my purse and the additional weight tugged on the waistline of pants without a belt.

Fits looks great.I’ve had other defender cases. After 3 years of hard use when opening it . The phone has a few scratches around edges but I think it’s good protection. Wife said it was not so good for trade in?

Holster failure
Snap would only lightly engage allowing the phone to easily and sometimes unknowingly fall to the ground.
