I’m currently using this case on my iPhone XS Max. While it is way too bulky, I’d rather have this big bulky case for its superior protection. I tend to drop my phone quite a bit, and this case has saved it from some pretty brutal drops & falls.
For those concerned about the tempered glass, the alpha glass from otter box works perfectly with this case! I have one for mine and haven’t had a single issue with it.
Loads of protection but still way too bulky. I’m currently using an Apple oem silicone case and it provides moderate protection. This otterbox has its purpose especially if you’re in the military or similar and doing a lot of field work. I used the otterbox for both my iPhone 6 and 7 both with the silicone sleeve that slipped over the hard plastic that was notorious for stretching, that what was turned me off from using otterbox altogether. Also the belt clip always broke on mine.
Your making a pretty good point but if i am spending over 1,000$ on a phone then i want to get a bulky case because i dont really care about style i just care about the protection
I just put on the otterbox defender pro for my iphone 8 it looks to be the same updated version without the cutout for the Apple logo. This case has really good grip better than previous defender cases I have tried It does still have a slight air gap with the built in screen protector but from what I can tell it was slightly changed to fit better with the iphone 8. I know this video is for the iphone x version but this pro version is new so not much info on iphone 7/8 versions.
I picked one of these up at Best Buy for my XS Max. Best otterbox I’ve ever had for an iPhone, and I’ve had tons. It has much better grip, tighter fit, better look also. I returned the regular defender and kept the Pro.
Armen Alexandrian I have been thinking about getting this pro one. It’s expensive I can get the older defender for about $30 cheeper but I like the pro because I think it has more grip which is always a welcome in my opinion. I have heard people say they really like the feel of the pro. Only thing stopping in the bulk. Do you think it’s just something you get use to after a while?
Looks like the screen wouldn't actually make contact with the ground if you dropped the phone, since the screen itself is still somewhat enclosed within the plastic. Am I right?
Looks very protective. The tempered glass issue would be a problem for me, also the thickness of the case would make for a phone that wouldn’t be very pocketable . Great review and walkthrough of this particular case and I’m sure this would work for many people.
hi Friend.. Is it possible to glue a glass shield on front of the iPhone? Then install the shield Defender Pro Case? Please give me an answer..Thank you
Great video I have heard that Otterbox wants people to use the alpha glass for the screen protector of course it’s there brand and it will fit. But I have an expensive screen protector not sure if it will fit but don’t want to waste the one I have and the pro is expensive $80 Canadian 😱 I can get the regular defender for half the price of this pro
Phone Tech At Work Oh ok but the defender always been my favorite but not having a screen protector on such an expensive phone kind of sucks shame on Outtabox smh
I know I’m late I’m watching this video but that’s the wrong case to compare . The difference between the two cases is the hole in the back for the Apple logo that’s all
Damn thats a bulky ass case. Sorry but the Zizo Bolt series case looks 1000x better then Otterbox, offers just as amazing protection, includes belt clip & tempered glass screen protector, oh yeah and the best of all is it cost only $17.99 on Amazon. Check that case out before spending $50+ on a Otterbox.
This case is really good but it’s just sooooo massive for the Xs Max, it makes my phone feel like a tablet 😅 can’t risk breaking a 1000$ phone though 😂
Despite the breadth of cases on the market, this is absolutely THE ONLY CHOICE for couriers and the like. Sad that no one else makes a case that PROTECTS. Literally no one. Even their own child company, LifeProof, makes utterly garbage cases that are in no way suited to ever be dropped.
Hate the otter box they do work good but to me they are bulky and to thick they make you phone feel cheep also they always break ther ok if you are a construction worker but other wise I would not pay ther hefty price here in Canada they are pretty expensive the glass feels cheap I don’t know I have had 4 or 5 since my iPhone 4 I quit buying them wen the 7 came out they are like 60 in Canada like I say they always break they gurantee for life but a hassle to get a new one you have to tell how it broke take a pic bullshit no time for otter box
Finally your the first guy to review this case

My phone is so protected now. I didn’t care that it didn’t have the screen protecter built in because I already had a glass one on. I love it!
Preach Shannon!
Looks great, I may pick this up, I love OtterBox, great video
great video,short and simple ,am getting one today.....many tx my friend...
I don’t like bulky covers, but the iPhone X and latest one are all made of glass so it’s totally worth it to get an otterbox defender.
I have the defender pro for my iPhone 7 jet black, and I love it.

Get zag I had this case it didn’t raise my tempered glass
I use my tempered glass with my defender pro just fine. And mines the blackweb glass from Walmart.
Glad to know. Definitely need to look into that
Same combo here.
yaboyrog it’s honestly my favorite screen protector. It’s held up a lot better than my zagg ones and you can’t beat the price.
Yea I was honestly surprised by the quality. No bubbles. 10 bucks
How do you get the batman wallpaper

I'm wanting to upgrade soon, but I really can't decide between the 8 plus and the XS Max. I currently have the 6s
Page 1977 i just upgraded from 6 plus to XsMax and it’s badass 🤷♀️😊
Looks very protective. The tempered glass issue would be a problem for me, also the thickness of the case would make for a phone that wouldn’t be very pocketable .
Great review and walkthrough of this particular case and I’m sure this would work for many people.
J Q I have the Tech Armour glass shield. No issue with the case.
Does the pro make a case for the iPhone 8plus???
chris vannatter no. This is the first year and phone they make it for. They make the regular Defender though for the 8 Plus.
chris vannatter Yes they have a pro for the iPhone 8/8 plus I have it on my phone rn the 8 plus got it yesterday 😍💯
Armen Alexandrian Yes they have a pro for the iPhone 8/8 plus I have it on my iPhone 8 Plus rn
Oh cool! I had not seen it when I had my 8 Plus.
Yes, was debating on getting it for my Plus tonight.
What’s the difference again? With the regular and the pro?
Different back and no circle in the back to show the logo
Phone Tech At Work that’s it? No extra protection? Or like grip or wtv?
Watch the video lol I talk about the differences
Phone Tech At Work well the link ain’t working for me like only the pursuit, defender, symmetry was available 0-0 no defender pro
The Pro supposedly has some anti microbial technology which significantly reduces the amount of germs on the case compared to the regular defender.
hi Friend..
Is it possible to glue a glass shield on front of the iPhone?
Then install the shield Defender Pro Case?
Please give me an answer..Thank you
You mean a tempered glass? The one I have on now didn't work well honestly.
I mean a glass shield on the front screen of the iPhone..
Then can you install ,the shield of Defender Pro Case?
Or it is not possible?
Yes I can confirm the alpha glass will work with this.
What is the alpha glass? You have a picture of the glass.
send me..Attach a picture.
Thanks
OtterBox website sells Alpha glass.
got for my xs great case
Is the tempered glass the alpha glass from otterbox?
No. This glass is from GPEL
Maybe thats why it didnt fit with the case.
Sabino Martinez yeah I'm looking for the alpha glass
Tempered Glass shields work fine with this case.
Any idea if it still charges wirelessly?
Yes it can wirelessly charge
I have this case I love it but mine got the Hole where the apple Logo shows 👍
purpysmart you don’t have the pro if you have the hole for the Apple logo😉 just saying
How do I get that Batman wallpaper
I just googled 4k Batman wallpaper
I have a Zagg screen protector on my XS Max and it fits well and works perfectly with it .. doesn’t effect the screen protector at all
Hey quick question can you use wireless charging with the case on?
Yes It does work with wireless charging
Phone Tech At Work wait really even though it looks a bit big?
Zman2112 Yes, wireless charging works
I was wondering the same thing as I just bought one for my XS Max. Thanks for the info!
Doesn’t those plastic parts scratch up the phone? Definitely for construction users
Hi loved the cases I got one
Nice. It’s one of top cases out there
What was the case you removed?
ruclips.net/video/tuqz-GQXz1I/видео.html
Does it come in Red?
Only black ,purple,green and blue
Can we get a drop test!? 😂😂 😂 Another good review bro!
Sure thing, I'll be sending the billing costs to Techletes Inc. 😂😂
What would be the point of drop testing a Otterbox defender. We already know itll survive any drop.
for some reason this is like ASMR for me anybody else.
Dope wallpaper!!!
Great video I have heard that Otterbox wants people to use the alpha glass for the screen protector of course it’s there brand and it will fit. But I have an expensive screen protector not sure if it will fit but don’t want to waste the one I have and the pro is expensive $80 Canadian 😱 I can get the regular defender for half the price of this pro
$75 dollars for a damn case, which is essentially less than 100 grams of plastic is too damn expensive. I really want this one, but the price is TGH.
Check your local Walmart they’re always on sale there
I like the pro doesn’t show off my logo
Just curious, why dont u want the logo to show? I see some people prefer that. Is it to, idk, deter thieves or what?
Ramiro S I like the line design and not showing your logo is different that’s why
My defender pro came with a built in screen protector lol
nah
no it didnt
Your voice is relaxing 😌
I have this same case! I like it because you can’t see the Apple logo
Tim Gring so it cannot get scartch?
supcase beetle are just as good for a fraction of the price
So a built in screen protector doesn’t work with Face ID?
VATOOUT not true, it works fine with my other cases. Otterbox most likely removed it because of everyone adding tempered glasses to the phone
Phone Tech At Work Oh ok but the defender always been my favorite but not having a screen protector on such an expensive phone kind of sucks shame on Outtabox smh
@@phonetechatwork thats dum they still should have came with it to its an otterbox staple

I just came here o figure out how to open the damned thing.
Haha it’s a mission I know

Jeff Leblanc not even close man. You go on the website, pay $5.99 shipping, and that’s it. No photos
Too bulky
The beauty of the iPhone design and color is totally covered up. Why would someone want to cover all of that up?
Isaacfriends because they don’t want to drop their phone from a 30 ft ladder while at work
To protect it so they don’t have to spend $400 on a new glass back🤨
