    The case offers good protection but is very bulky (as expected). If you are looking for protection this is a good choice.

      Hi Chickintogadets,

      That’s great that the Defender is taking care of your iPhone 5/5s. We are a little concerned that there is something hindering the fingerprint scanner on your phone. The Defender case was designed to work seamlessly with the iPhone and there should be unobstructed access to that part of the phone. Please give us a call at 1-855-688-7269, and we will be happy to get more information and get to the bottom of this mystery.

      Best,
      OtterBox Customer Service Team otterbox

    Bought this case for my first iPhone 5s. It was a great price and I could find no differences between it and the much higher priced similar items on the market. It is protecting the phone with my typical tossing and dropping.

    I purchased the iPhone case protector and it is great. It is black as pictured online and it is the quality and the product that I ordered. I got it for my boyfriend as one of his birthday gift and he loved it. Replaced one he used to have but the phone got stolen with the case. Great purchase and great price.

    I have used this case for several weeks and it is easy to hold onto, looks nice, and seems to be good at protecting my phone. The only issue I have had is that it is sometimes hard to press the letters and numbers hard enough on the outside edges of the keypad when typing through the screen cover.

    I purchased a couple of these otter boxes because I love otterbox and Best Buy made it even better when they put these things so cheap I couldn't pass them up. Otterbox does exactly what it says...protects your phone. I have had several otterboxes for different items, and it is amazing how clean my screens stay and how my things have not gotten damaged when I have dropped them. The only drawback to the otterbox is how hard they are to take apart when you want to trade them out or when you just want to clean your products.

    Got tired of my daughter breaking her phone so I got her an Otter Box in the theme she preferred. So far the phone is in one piece and the Box is living up to its claims! Definitely recommend an Otter Box for protecting phones!

    I continue to buy and use Otterbox protective cases for mine, my wife's and my sons devices. I like the variety of colors and they do a great job and never had to replace a phone or device for a drop on the floor. Excellent !

    This is my third OtterBox Defender case used on several iPhone models. It provides great protection and I've never had an issue with the phones after 5 years of use. Also, the phone looks like new when removed from the case.

    I got it for a super good price. It works well, but there are cons. It's big and bulky. It's hard to put on and take off. Also, there can be a lot of bubbles and moisture on the screen after a while. I'll still use the case though because it's super durable.

    Love this case. It completely protects my phone and as a plus has its own screen protector. I've used this type of product in the past and always loved otterbox.

    If you don't get a case for your iPhone you will regret it, the screen will break if unprotected, I love my iPhone but as soon as I get one I put it in an otterbox.

    Nice looking case that protects my phone from drops. The white does get a little dirty but I guess I should expect that. Only down fall is a piece of rubber does cover the finger print reader but besides that pretty nice.
