Its a nice case but took me alot to get it on and the magnetic end of it isn't as good as the magsafe case I had for my iphone 12.

Still a solid case
This case model has been my go to over the years, the new design of putting the hard plastic rim into the soft rubber part was my least favourite part of the new design. Getting the rubber over the hard plastic was much easier. But I know my phone will literally never come out of this case now because it took 20 minutes to get it in the case!

Cracked Screen
I have used LifeProof Cases as long as I have had an iPhone and have never had a cracked screen. Two weeks after switching to an Otterbox case and screen protector I dropped my phone from waist height onto a sidewalk and both my screen protector and my phone's screen cracked. I am very frustrated.

Well Made and durable
I purchased this case and give it 10 stars it’s does what needs to be done. My phone feels secure in this case. I like that the case is slim and fits my phone perfectly I only use otter box cases because of the quality and this case is well made. It is awesome looks great all while not being overly bulky.

Regret is not reading reviews
I have been using the Defender series on multiple devices for at least a decade. When I saw this new slimmer design with better drop protection and mag compatibility I was on it. My last phone (iphone XR purchased around the time they came out ?6 years ago?) was in an Otterbox Defender case and dropped and fumbled on tile floor countless times with no problem.
Note I did attach camera lense glass protector that works with case. I chose one with three individual glass protectors vs. one large glass to make sure it fits.
Disappointed with...
1. how microscopic the lip edge above the screen is. Maybe 2mm vs. about 5 mm on a traditional defender.
Stupid me, should have figured this was necessarily to make it "slimmer" argh.
2. seeing the case I was definitely concerned that the back does not appear to have the same impact absorption built in. Then read review about a 3' drop and the back of iphone shattering while the case was intact.
3. The second case piece that locks your phone in is disconcertingly super flimsy. And sure enough with the stupid hard installation, I heard a pop noise that indicates the frame may now be compromised even though my eyes were unable to see where the plastic may have been damaged.
4. Stupid Hard and painful installation. It took two people and some thumb skin. Really Otterbox, you should have included an install tool to grab the edge and get over and into the plastic groove.
5) shipping sucked. Got free shipping with order. Didn't realize it would take over a week and then on top of that was delayed by two days. Waited for the case to fire up my new phone.
6. now reading reviews that the mag feature doesn't work as expected.
Lesson learned, even with Otterbox, READ THE REVIEWS FIRST!
I will likely be contacting otterbox to exchange for the traditional bulky and ugly Defender or refund and get the case elsewhere with faster shipping and potential better discount.

Wrong Product sent, case doesn't fit,slow shipping
I ordered this case on February 2. My first delivery I received was on February 10 and they sent me the wrong product, a Google Pixel 7 Pro. I submitted a ticket and they resent the correct product, which I just received today, Feb 19. The correct case came this time, but it arrived opened, clearly used, with no directions. I cannot physically get the phone in the case, there is plastic trim around the edge and I don't know how to get the phone on without popping it out. I would avoid and search for an alternative due to issues noted above.

Primo Color Combo
It was a little tricky to get the case on. Definitely had to pull up a reference on YouTube and watch it several times to understand. Then it still didn’t feel like it was gonna get on properly. Other than that it’s perfect! I got the pink & purple color way and I’m obsessed. It’s so easy to spot and feels cartoonish & sassy. Easy to grip and cradle when using. Had tried the symmetry series case first and felt like it was too slippery and didn’t provide enough protection. That’s just my two sense.

I’ve used OtterBox in the past and was always happy with the cases I purchased…until this one. Even with the case correctly on my phone, the back glass of my phone shattered when dropping my phone less than 3 feet. Now I have to spend over $100 to get it repaired. Disappointed with this purchase. Performance does not match price.

Protective and works with other lens protectors
This case fits perfect and is nice and tight fit. I can easily turn on and off the silence button even though it looks like there isn’t a ton of room (it’s plenty) I have medium sized hands as well. I’ve already dropped my phone and no damage. I also use a one piece lens protector from Amazon and it fits the case (tight) but it fits and holds.

Not great
So I’ve been an iPhone user since 2008 and an otter box user since 2010 or so. Every few years I upgrade to a new model and along with purchase a new otter box case. I’ve always been very satisfied with their products. However, I’ve had the 14 Pro with this case for less than two full months and my back glass is shattered. I’m extremely disappointed.

The quality of cases have fallen off.
Otter box has been good to me for years, but this case specifically sucks. I have always prided myself on never cracked a phone and it was purely because of otterbox cases. With this case I dropped it less than 2 feet out of my pocket from the couch and it completely shattered my front glass, back glass, and damaged the camera to the point I now have to spend $1200 for a new phone. The quality of otter box cases has fallen off over years for “light weight” or “recycled plastic” cases. I just want a good case like I had on my 8 or my 11 that is beefy but I can trust 100%.

Third case I’ve owned in a year, third broken case
The case is already broken in the very little time that I have owned it, where the case is broken it appears my screen is chipped but I don’t want to take it off and look because I will never get it back on. I’ve owned this case twice once when I got the phone and a second after my regular defender case broke. I’m not sure what. Otterbox is doing but can’t seem to hold up more than a few months. Considering other brands at this point.

Otter Defender vs Viking stove!
I love otter box. While I was baking my phone slid off my shoulder right into a 450 Degree oven. It tool a bit to remove cookies and racks before I could get my phone out of the oven. The whole time I ran frantically around the kitchen my boy friend kept talking on the other end. Once removed the phone was very warm so I let it cool down on the counter. Once it cooled there was no damage to the phone and not even any residue left behind in my oven. As you can see my otter box was still usable with some discoloring. Thank you for making the otter box I am very grateful. I will be updating my phone soon and I will not buy any other brand.

Shattered on 1st Drop
I have been purchasing lifeproof cases for over 10 years and absolutely loved them, when I got the iPhone 14, I saw that they were no longer making them and decided to try this one instead. I dropped my phone one time with this case on it while walking down the street and the back shattered into pieces. It is actually ridiculous how poorly this case works, it has the protection of a $10 knockoff amazon case - do better.

A much needed upgrade. I like it!
I really like this case. A much needed upgrade to the original defender series and it still offers the most robust protection from Otterbox. The only thing is: it’s a little hard to get the case on the phone. It’s very tight and firm which I personally prefer, but it does made the case a little harder to get on. As long as you’re not afraid to pull back the rubber, you’ll be fine!! Overall, my favorite case right now.

Literally worst case ever
I dropped it one time from not even three feet off the ground and it shattered the back of my phone. It was in a parking deck on a flat surface and it just shattered. How my camera stayed in tact I don’t know but I am thoroughly displeased with this purchase. And the fact that you don’t have a policy to provide at least partial protection for the device itself shows you don’t stand by your product.

Great case, may have lifted my screen protector?
I love the weight of the case and it’s easy to keep clean. I’m having issues with my screen protector (the bottom half has lifted and no longer adheres to the screen after being on less than a month). I wonder if it’s because of the frame that “locks” the phone into the case?

Adequate
Overall decent. Dropped a number of times on tile with no issue until this last time. The clear plastic in the corner cracked but phone is fine, so it did its job.
Things I like:
-slim & lightweight
-clear backing
-seems to have protected my phone from several drops
Things I’m not crazy about
-the front rim protecting the screen is practically non-existent. I’m used to the Defender case.
-the clear plastic backing gets scratched up
-the case gets dirty and stained. The pretty purple quickly becomes an unsightly brownish grungy puke color
-hair somehow manages to get behind the clear plastic backing
-how crazy hard it is to get the clear rim in the silicone case. First time was the worst. It was somewhat easier putting the replacement on and didn’t hurt the skin of my thumbs as bad.

Decent
This really is a nice and solid case but it is so difficult to put on. It made me regret not getting one of the older basic ones. The instructions weren’t really helpful because I did what it showed and it still wouldn’t work. I finally got it on after having my boyfriend help me. It really shouldn’t take 2 people to put on a phone case. I’m honestly kind of scared to take it off for any reason like trying a different case because I do not look forward to trying to get it back on. Other than that it really is a nice case. I like the way it feels on my hand and it has a good level of thickness to it so my phone feels protected.

The Lavender colour case really makes the purple of the iPhone stand out.
Not sure why there are people complaining about having difficulties installing the case.
Once the two pieces are separated it takes a matter of seconds to complete the install process and you have a case that feels and looks fantastic. Love it.

Case was a nightmare to install
I would say out of all of my years using apple products,and several otter box cases,this one was extremely difficult to install. I actually had to stretch the rubber to get it to fit around the edges of the case,then use my fingernail to slide it into the edge. If I had known how difficult and stressful installation was I would not have purchased.

Great protection, challenging install.
This case is great for protection. An immense struggle to put on the phone and I dread the day I need to take it off and put it back on again but very happy with the protection it offers. I would be interested to see how the symmetry series + stacks up against in protection as that case would be much easier to install.

You can feel how strong it is by installing it
Is not my first time with Otter cases, is a good deal for customer but a bad one for the company, there cases are so good that you only need one for the life of the phone, because they last that long, they been my favorite since I heard of them, and is being a while now.

Do not buy
The first tip for writing a great review is to use the product first. Well if you can actually get the case on your phone then maybe I would. I have spent 2 hours trying to get the case on my phone and all I have are 2 sore thumbs. Beyond frustrated that I spent $70 on a case that cannot even be used.

What a struggle
Thee most challenging case to put on your phone!! After a half hour I called it quits. Might try again tomorrow, if I don’t already go to the gym. The designers def need to redesign this case!

Love this case!!
This case looks great on my purple iPhone 14 pro! I watched a YouTube video to see how to put the case on and it was a breeze. My only complaint is that the case is too expensive for what it is. I would buy again though because it does look and feel great!!

Good protection, some design flaws
I got this case based on Otterbox protection quality and I am sure I will not regret this purchase. The case feels solid and it offers a good grip. The MagSafe charging works with no issues and the color of the case actually matches the one presented in the website. I also tried attaching the case to a Magsafe stand without problems. I have two complaints about this product:
1. Installation is not super easy. I did not find very hard removing the soft case from the hard plastic, but adding it back when the phone is in the outer layer required some skill and I can see why other reviewers feel frustrated about that part. If you plan to use only this case, that should not be an issue at all, but if someone is constantly switching cases for different activities it could be really annoying.
2. The access to the Silent Toggle in the left side is not properly centered. The upper side of it is to close to it. This makes it very hard to switch the toggle on and off, specially if you have thick fingers and/or short nails.
My feedback to Otterbox:
1. Is the toggle off centered position a design flaw or was my case defective? If this is a design flaw, do you plan to fix it, and, if so, could I exchange this case when this issue is resolved?
2. Do you have any plans to launch a Commuter XT case (Magsafe) compatible for the iPhone 14 pro? I feel that option will reduce the extra bulk of the XT and would be ideal for everyday use.

Needs some camera protection
Fine for most of the phone, but doesn’t really protect the camera, would love a case with a camera cover

Not worth it
I bought this case for my new iPhone 14 pro. I had the phone/case for a total of 2 weeks before I dropped my phone (in this case) from about 3 feet from the ground. I didn’t look at my phone until I got back inside my house because I was sure that my $70 case protected it. Well the entire back of my phone was shattered not one part of the back that did not have a crack in it. The case was not damaged at all, it just did not protect the phone whatsoever. Very disappointed.

Great Otterbox Phone case
So far I really like my new phone case, it’s not too bulky & seems to be good protection.

Won’t Charge Wirelessly
I bought this case at Best Buy as well as the new Apple MagSafe charger and my new iPhone 14 Pro won’t charge wirelessly with the case on… it specifically says on the box that it will charge wirelessly… any reason why it won’t? And extremely hard to put case on…

A very tight fit
I purchased this case for my new iPhone 14 pro, I like it however I gave it a lower score due to it not fitting the phone properly it was a struggle to get it on. I thought I would either break my iPhone or the case.

Iphone 14 Pro XT installation
Not the easiest installation. I would recommend a youtube video. That stated, the plastic inner frame was removed before I attempted to put it together. I used a golf divot tool to stretch the rubber case around, up, and over the plastic frame.

Difficult
Pretty good case as far as protection. Very difficult to get phone into case, this is a one and done.

Did Not Protect Phone
I’ve had my case since September. I dropped my phone off my lap (not high!) and the entire back has splintered. Parts are chipping off. Apple said the repair it would need is the most expensive repair they offer. I had high hopes for this case, but it’s not any more protective than a regular case. Extremely disappointed.
