Always bought Otterbox cases for all my cellphones. Never thought of even trying any other brand, but Otterbox’s 11 pro case disappointed me. The rubber part of the case broke, the volume buttons came off. I’m nit sure if I received a defective piece or what, but terrible quality.

We bought this case and the first time the phone was dropped, the back of the phone broke and the phone stopped working. Phone was dropped from kitchen counter to tile floor. It must have hit just at the right angle to break the corner. See photos.

Not drop proof

This case is not drop proof. My phone dropped from my restroom sink and landed on the top side of the case and the whole back of my phone cracked. I just bought the case and this happened within a week.

Cracked within 4 months of use

I thought the Otterbox name meant quality—but apparently not for this model. Without a significant drop it had a small crack at the top that grew larger over time. Disappointed.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Great fit, no wiggle room and easily removable in case of spills
Big fan of the snug charger port cover, nice design
Smooth enough to put stickers on with nice grip on the sides

Reviewing this a year after I bought it- you definitely get what you pay for. A lot of people complain about the blockiness of Otterbox cases but this one at least has no issues; it fits in all of my jeans pockets easily and in my opinion it’s pretty sleek. The charger flap on the bottom is still in great shape, no signs of wear. I drop my phone at least once a day and I throw it around quite a bit and this case keeps it protected. As long as you don’t drop it on a rock or run it over with your car, you’ll be good. My grandma once dropped her phone off of the Top Thrill Dragster at Cedar Point. Found it at the bottom of the coaster unharmed. I will never stop recommending Otterbox.

It took me a lot of shopping around to find the right size case for my iPhone as I have an older model.Best Buy was the only place that had the right size and this Otter Box is great.I've had my phone fall onto pavement 5 or 6 times and no harm done at all.

The first thing that I did when I received my new iPhone 11 was to purchase an OtterBox. As with my previous iPhones, this item is not that bulky and gives me a firmer grip on the phone itself. It is a little bit pricey, but the peace of mind I get from the added protection is worth the price.

I do like the design even though I have a iPhone X. It still worked out great. Unfortunately, it did not have the magnetic backing for when I driving. But it did have that extra security and easy to use. I would say be cautious of your silent mode when placing your phone into it because it will turn it off and you’ll miss a lot of alerts or phone calls. I have yet to drop it and it has protected from being in my pocket.

Bought multiple of these cases for family .Excellent protection for phones fits iPhone well and easy to put together. I have not dropped in water or had severe drops on hard surface but great for regular use and lasts for life of phone

Got this for a work iPhone 11. Phones are too slippery to me so it's more a matter of having a good grip on the phone than providing protection. It does a good job of both (albeit not testing the latter). I may remove the cover for the charging port as that's a nuisance.

My favorite case. It is not too bulky but has great protection. I have used the commuter series on my last 4 iPhones. One was left on the roof of my truck and bounced down the highway with only a minor scratch. I will have a commuter series for every phone I buy.

Sturdy and easy to use not bulky at all if you want protection with a sleek look this is a great option with the price being as low as it is you can’t beat it. Such a deal I thought something was wrong with it but there is nothing wrong with it

Fits well, does protect against drops, (I've had a few) and it seems lighter then the one I had previously. Thanks to the tech guy that put it on because he went through several before he was satisfied that it was right!

I One of the case that was great for protection but also I wanted to case that was not bulky and this is perfect fit right into what I was looking for the protection and ease of taking the phone in and out of my pocket because the case is not bulky

The case was easy to install, lightweight and looks good. I have already dropped my cell phone several times after installing the new case and there was absolutely no damage to my phone.

otter box is great! I was always dropping my phone and I cracked the glass twice! With the Otter box I don't have to worry. I really like the way it protects the phone when I drop it or rolls off the seat of the car and is not damaged. I would highly recommend it for anyone that drops their phone often. It has a really durable outer design that is comfortable to wear and looks good too! I thought the price was very manageable also and recommended it to my children who also drop their phones often. It will probably save me a lot of money not having to buy more phones.

Fits well into the iPhone 11, had this case for two yeats finally started to wear out a little, recently bought it again and it feels much nicer than the previous one. There is no stand on the phone case to prop up your phone but i still love this case, its saved my phone from cracking or breaking many times.
