I’ve been installing Otterbox Defender Cases since the iPhone 5 😂 I finally found peace with the installation process with the 6s. The one I recently installed on my 14 Pro was no biggie.
That actually looks badass with the Purple iPhone 14 Pro. I might just go out and buy one. I’m currently using the Defender Pro / Blue Suede Shoes with Holster.
I actually love this. I got the all black one. One thing I hated was the clear part on the front. Idk why they made it that way. However, it’s an awesome case. MagSafe so I can detach and attach my pop sockets
Thanks for this video . I need to replace my 14 pro max for defective things . Best Buy put it own cause I purchased the screen protector. I was curious if i was the only one who thought it looked or is hard to install . Thanks again
Love the case. It took me less than 5 minutes to install. The clear series with lavender trim looks nice. Only flaw is the ring/silence switch is hard to access.
You can literally put your phone in the case by just placing it in normally like any other case. That’s what I did and was easy, not sure why people are having trouble with this when it was literally that easy
I literally did the same thing. Seems like there’s more folks out there that flunked the 3rd grade than I originally thought 🤷🏽♂️. Problem solving is critical…
I have this case in all black. I liked it so much that I also purchased the Ocean Blue just to switch up sometimes! Very nice grip in the hands, slim and stylish for a rugged design 👌🏾. Also with thoughtful design elements.
I literally bought the blue one yesterday. Tried to put it on for about an hour and walked back in best buy and returned it. It was worse then aggravating
Wow. I actually put mine on in Best Buy just to try it out first. Only took me 2-3 minutes tops 🤷🏽♂️. I went ahead and purchased it because I liked everything about it. Slim, protective, MagSafe. You missed out on a great design!
Installing this was made way more worse than needs to be lol I do this at work; put the phone in flat into the bottom, put the top layer on flat, edge out one corner and following that same side just push it around, like pushing an air bubble out lol
Great video bro! Is the icy screen protector the best one you think? Did you all ready have it on before you put the case on? Just got my case and have to order a screen protector before my phone comes in a couple weeks!
I’ve been using icy shield screen protectors since the iPhone 8 and never had issues. While I don’t think it’s the “best” I just think it’s a great screen protector that doesn’t cost so much. And yes the screen protector was already installed
🙌🏾 Great video unboxing/review. I actually just squeeze my 12 ProMax in my Defender XT; works out just fine. It’s tight, but over time it gets in there. This is a great overview for when I get my 14 ProMax. Still conflicted over what color to get (stay matching with Silver, go Black, or land in the middle with Purple).
Put the phone into the case first then the plastic part and lift up the rubber with a toothpick or whatever you can find and slowly put the plastic inside the case. The trickiest part are the corners. Took me about 6ish minutes. If you’re using your fingers and nails to lift, you might not succeed. *THEY WONT IMMEDIATELY CLICK INTO THE CASE, JUST KEEP TRYING BY LIFTING THE RUBBER AND PUSHING IN THE PLASTIC
I just got this same cause I'm not gonna lie I was definitely hoping the raised edges were gonna be a little higher around the screen and especially the ones in the back that go around the camera I wish were a little higher.
Hey, great review. What do you think about the lip bump for the front screen and most importantly for the back cameras? Do you think the bump is enough to protect the cameras and the front screen if placed on either side? Thanks.
It’ll keep the screen and camera from getting scuffed if it’s on a flat surface. I do recommend a screen protector such as the icy shield screen protector which is the one I personally use
I hate it I hate it I hate it I stepped on my 14 unfortunately and now my plastic piece of the case won’t click and it’s loose. Hopefully I saved my box for that warranty if not I’m going to Best Buy and returning it. Stick with the bulky regular defender pro. Trust me. It ain’t worth fucking up a $2000 dollar phone. Oh and not to mention when I went to Best Buy to have my screen protector fixed because it lifted and the dude was so rude and told me it lifted because of this case. You need to literally have perfectly install your glass protecter straight or it’ll lift and you’ll be going back and fourth fixing it. Problems problems problems. Not to mention this case just isn’t that protective. Don’t waste your time that clear plastic fronting will get brittle over time. You’re welcome sorry to shit on the product but people need to know. I got mine on sale for $45 and it’s originally like $70. Don’t waste your money honey.
Is the MagSafe ring made of magnets or is it just a plain ol’ metal ring? Can someone test to see if metal is attracted to the case by itself without the phone inside?
The only difference I see from the defender XT and Defender PRO XT is that the PRO version has “Lasting antimicrobial properties to protect the case*” Otherwise it’s the same

Defender is so much easier than this pro XT 😅
Never had an Otterbox installation where I had to look up on RUclips how to put it on 😂😂 until now. Nice
I'm glad I was able to help 😅 this case ain't easy to put on
By far the hardest otter box I’ve ever installed.
Facts 😅
I can get it on in 30 seconds idk what y’all doing
For those having a hard time installing this case I used an guitar pick with some pantient and it made the the installation abit easier
That’s a smart tool to use 🔥 thanks for sharing
Not sure how people had so much problems I put it on quickly
I just bought this otterbox case today and its by far the best I have ever purchased
🔥 what color is your iPhone ?
@@FIREWOLFTECH deep purple
Thank you for the install instructions was great hard case to install
That actually looks badass with the Purple iPhone 14 Pro. I might just go out and buy one. I’m currently using the Defender Pro / Blue Suede Shoes with Holster.
🔥 yeah the clear is great to show off the beautiful color
I actually love this. I got the all black one. One thing I hated was the clear part on the front. Idk why they made it that way. However, it’s an awesome case. MagSafe so I can detach and attach my pop sockets
MagSafe is so lit 🔥 I’m glad you love it
For all my gals, salon NAILS! Strong coffin/stiletto shaped nails are the charm!!
😂
I just got this for my pro max and I like it! Solid as usual from ottterbox! Just $80 is steep! 😢
Steep, but the price of the 14 pro max is also steep 😅
Thank you for showing how to put the case on!
You’re welcome 🔥 hoping it saves time and frustration !
Omg!! That case was awful to put on thanks for the help 😅
Love this case picked mine up today for 40
Nice 🔥
Thanks for this video . I need to replace my 14 pro max for defective things . Best Buy put it own cause I purchased the screen protector. I was curious if i was the only one who thought it looked or is hard to install .
Thanks again
Yeah this was tough 😅

Ain’t no way 😳😅
BS I tried that
I literally did the same thing. Seems like there’s more folks out there that flunked the 3rd grade than I originally thought 🤷🏽♂️. Problem solving is critical…
I like the clear for gold phones and stuff
I think clear looks good with any other color 🔥
Thank you!
You’re welcome, and thanks for the comment 🔥
Hi! Is it true that this case will chipped the edges?
Does the clear back scratch up?
Great Review! Been Thinking About Buying This One For My 14 Pro Max. 😎
Thanks 🔥 it’ll be a great case for your max 😮💨

Yep. It’s literally that simple. People tend to over hype stuff allot!!!!
This case gave my hand Carpal tunnel lol
Thank you very helpful
You’re welcome 🔥
A lot of y’all have never touched life proof cases and it shows

Can’t go wrong with the Deep Purple 😮💨 but I do love how the space black looks too 🔥
Love the case but it took me almost like 25 minutes to install this. My finger tips were numb. 🤨
I know you mentioned the tempered glass brand, but does it really matter if I get a different brand is there a potential issue with other brands?
Some brands make their glass all the way to the edge of the phone, so sometimes a snug case like this otterbox may end up not fitting
Put the phone into the case first then the plastic part and lift up the rubber with a toothpick or whatever you can find and slowly put the plastic inside the case. The trickiest part are the corners. Took me about 6ish minutes.

Thanks for sharing 🔥
Only took me about 2-3 minutes. Wasn’t as difficult for me as most 🤷🏽♂️
Does it make the pro max harder to hold ? Also could u damage the actual phone while putting it on/off
For me the pro max is already hard to hold 😅
But yeah you could damage the actual phone if you’re applying unnecessary force to take it off
@@FIREWOLFTECH Sorry for asking so many questions but does the back clear part get yellow or discoloured because ive had clear cases before
Can you still charge your phone without the mag safe
Yes it can charge with a cable or wireless charging pad
does this fit the 13 pro max? i’ve been really wanting a case like this for the 13 pro max
This one only fits the 14 pro max, and I don’t see this design for 13 pro max on otterbox’s website 😞
What brand of glass did you have on your iPhone? because the one I use the cover lifts
I used the icyShield glass
I just got this same cause I'm not gonna lie I was definitely hoping the raised edges were gonna be a little higher around the screen and especially the ones in the back that go around the camera I wish were a little higher.
Yeah it’s not very high but its still solid . How long did it take you to put it on 😅
Whats the back made of
I wonder if it’s compatible with a lens protector
I get this question a lot, I’m gonna have to get a lens protector and do a video on it 😅
Have you tried it on the otterbox car mount ?
I haven't, i should def add it to my list
How easy does the back scratch?
I’m not too sure, but over time scratches are gonna show depending how your phone is handled
what color is the phone in the video.
Deep purple 🔥
Purple
Green 🤦♂️
Do all iphones have mags or did that just come out?
Its on iPhone 12 and up
Hey, great review. What do you think about the lip bump for the front screen and most importantly for the back cameras? Do you think the bump is enough to protect the cameras and the front screen if placed on either side? Thanks.

lol so what do you recommend
pretty nice, i think is worth 50$
It really is once you get it on 😅
I rather a symmetry otter box case
Yeah those are a great option, my personal favorite
Is the MagSafe ring made of magnets or is it just a plain ol’ metal ring? Can someone test to see if metal is attracted to the case by itself without the phone inside?
For a majority of cases, they include a ring of magnets.
Is the defender pro xt and the defender xt different is one slimmer than the other ?
The only difference I see from the defender XT and Defender PRO XT is that the PRO version has “Lasting antimicrobial properties to protect the case*”
Otherwise it’s the same
@@FIREWOLFTECH thank you bro
I got you my guy 🔥
Use the tab part of the lid of a classic bic pen and just run it down the outer part like putting on a bike tire.
Great advice 🔥
I live in the uk, can I get the screen protector shipped
I don’t think it’s available for UK unfortunately. From what I know they ship to US customers. I’ll definitely forward that info to them
i think you need to look up the definition if embroidered 😂 I believe the word u were looking for was embossed
😅 yeah someone pointed that out. If it’s embossed, then that’ll be the word going forward
My fingernails almost came off my fingers and it hurt a lot. I gave up after 30 minutes and returned this piece of crap
Damn 😅 what did you get instead
😂
Great video and fyi. You’ll need patience and a paper clip to get the case on🙏😭
the case is rubbish it took me 15 minutes to attach it I had never had such a bad case iPhone 14 plus
Yeah not the best experience putting it on 🥲
Kinda defeats the purpose of buying a case when I throw my new phone across the room out of frustration. Lol
🤣😅
Power the device off 😂😂😂🤦♂️ 🤦♂️ 🤦♂️ 🤦♂️
🥺 my bad lol
Junk cases, over priced. Not packaged well like they used to be.
They improved the 15 series, made it so much easier to put on
YOU COULR HAVE WATCHED OTHER RUclips REVIEWS ABOUT INSTALLING THE SHIT BEFORE YOU MADE YOUR REVIEW SO IT WASNT A STRUGGLE TO WATCH YOU!!!
THIS CASE IS HARD TO PUT ON ! LOOK AT MY RECENT 15 PRO MAX VIDEO WAY EASIER ! AND AT THE TIME THERE WERENT ANY VIDEOS OF THIS CASE FOR THE 14 PRO MAX
Does this case have a built in screen protector ?
Unfortunately it doesn’t have a built in screen protector. The one I have installed is IcyShield : 14 Pro bit.ly/3DyyO5V
14 Pro Max : bit.ly/3DxvbwU
Why tf doesn’t come with the holster wtf makes no sense and why order it when they can put it all together
Probably to save money. At least it’s a voucher and not everyone uses the holster. But I do agree, they should’ve put them in
