Another winner
I've always sworn by Otterbox Defender. I work retail, so I'm always climbing up and down ladders. And naturally, drops happen. This updated design has firmer buttons, and the texture on the back makes it easier to hold onto.

Its a great cover
I have had this a week, the cover and clip holder for attaching the phone to a belt is great. The only thing I didn't care for is that Otter Box didn't say that the clip on belt holder was included in the cover box. So I ended up paying for one I didn't need.

4.00 out of 5 stars reviewVerified Purchaser10/23/2021I like it, BUT...I've had this one a while now, and have had three others. They all have a leak around the edge that allows dust and dirt to get in between the phone and the case. I wind up taking the case apart periodically to clean up the phone and interior of the screen pad of the case. I also have a problem with dead spots on the screen where there isn't good contact and it will miss my taps. My iPhone 4s Otterbox Defender case didn't need this procedure done as regular maintenance, and it also seemed a bit sturdier. And yes, I do hang onto my phones for a long time, the 8 Plus was an upgrade from the iPhone 4s. :)NightOwl Designs

5.00 out of 5 stars reviewVerified Purchaser08/11/20212nd OneI had my first for ~3 years and it wore out (specifically the film over the thumb print window and the flap over the charger port). Its always somewhat challenging to get the case apart or off. Perhaps more detailed printed instructions with the box would help. But its a very functional case and that's why I bought another.lmwwmj

5.00 out of 5 stars reviewVerified Purchaser03/27/2021Best phone case everFirst I had a military grade case and dropped the phone off ladder and broke the screen. I then bought my otter box case. I had a previous otter box case and as a mechanic I'm hard on my phones. The best thing about the case I love is one time I left my phone on the back bumper and it fell off a diesel truck and I ran it over TWICE the only damage was cracked the corner of the phone case no damage to the phone, but there was tire tracks over the phone screen lol. Everyone in my family has an otter box case on there phone.Unknown

5.00 out of 5 stars reviewVerified Purchaser09/28/2020Defender case for i-phone 6 plusOtterbox cases and holster are great, all four of my i-phones over the years have been protected by Otterbox cases. I had to replace by holster and case because caught on something and broke the belt clip off and the rubber case was loose and all stretched out of shape, but it still did the job.Dave

4.00 out of 5 stars reviewVerified Purchaser04/18/2020Sturdy plus excellent customer supportThis would be 5 stars if it didn't take me three days of frustration and breaking all my fingernails trying to get the slipcover off. The more I watched the how-to video with that guy effortlessly slipping his thumb in and peeling it off, the more insane I got. Finally, with a knife and a lot of swearing, success! It reassembled easily. I appreciate the courteous, friendly and supportive responses from Otterbox, but I wish phone/online chat had been available instead of waiting for email responses when I was so exasperated. The case itself is a bit heavy and big, but I suppose that's why it is so protective.Weakfingeredsenior

5.00 out of 5 stars reviewVerified Purchaser04/13/2020My third case in 6 years!My first defender case was so good that I was able to use it for two years, it was pretty beaten up which was great because it kept my phone safe and in tact! I ended up buying a second case and had that one for about two years too! I just bought my third defender case, I will never buy another brand of cases. I would like to try a less bulky one but I also know it will not protect my phone as well as mine. I love my case!Abby16

5.00 out of 5 stars reviewVerified Purchaser06/24/2019very protective caseI thought the instructions were somewhat confusing, but after watching a you-tube video, I was able to get my phone into the case with ease and have had no problems since. I like the fact that the protective screen isn't as hard to align as prior editions of the Otterbox.John

5.00 out of 5 stars reviewVerified Purchaser06/08/2019Second time purchase, almost same productI bought the earlier version of Defender Pro years ago. Love this for my IPhone 6 Plus. I gave my older one to my teenage son who definitely need this military grade version. This new version has some minor improvements which will come in handy in the mountains backpacking.Backpacking_in_Virginia

5.00 out of 5 stars reviewVerified Purchaser05/19/2019A+Protection, handy clip/stand, no phone-drop fearI got the version with the belt clippy attachment that works great as a stand, and when held works great as a pop-ring/holder. When i drop it in my bag, I have confidence in moving the cover over the screen so that there is no possibility of scratching or cracking. I pulled the screen protector off because i already had one i liked on the phone, and they do get a little blown-out on the home button. Totally worth it, hope this keeps my iPhone 6SPlus alive for years!moma

5.00 out of 5 stars reviewVerified Purchaser04/04/2019Best Case ever for nowI've had the regular defender case for a little over 4 years and it started becoming very flimsy. Very loose at the edges and it would always "puff" out at the back around the cutout for the Apple logo which started to catch on things. I decided to update and decided to go with the Pro version. I'm glad I did. It's much more firm and solid feeling. I'm sure it will saty this way for a long time. This is my 5th Otter box over the years and they just get better. No need to ever consider anything else.Northern Buyer

5.00 out of 5 stars reviewVerified Purchaser03/24/2019Total ProtectionI have used the Defender Series on all my phones for years. It offers the best protection for your phone. I work in industrial envirioments and have dropped it onto concrete many times with no damage to the phone. I will never use anything but Otter Box Defender Series!JcMK
