Cyber Monday Sale | 25% Off

Just a heads up, 25% off on Otterbox.com today only. If anyone wanted an extra shell or slip cover, it's a good day to do it.
 
Are you sure its for the 6 plus? It doesnt look like im getting a discount.

I'm on hold with them right now, I'll update the moment I know.

SORRY EVERYONE! I got excited... but it's not being offered for the 6 or 6 PLUS... If you call and "complain" about it however, they'll offer you 10% off your phone order.

My bad!!! :mad::mad::mad:
 
I received 2 Defenders today and I'm very happy with them as I was using Apple's leather cases (also very nice) but pretty much the same as naked as far as protection. The Defender screen protector is a little bit "loose" but no where near as bad as I expected (doesn't bother me at all) and the protection is fantastic! The only thing I don't like is the home button area I wish they made a rubber / silicone armored version for those of us who don't use the touch id

You're the second person whom I've heard request a silicone cover for the Touch ID. Interesting.
 
Those who have used the defender for a week or so, check the back of your phones for any damage or markings (back bottom on the antenna band area)

What have you noticed? Pics? It's a major pain to take off this case and I'd like to know what I'm looking for before doing so.

Thanks!
 
I don't have any pics at the moment but its a small marking that looks like a stain/discoloring of the antenna band. I am using the case with a zagg glass so the fit is tight so perhaps that may be it but I'd suggest everyone take a look.

If it's a discoloration I would be of no help, as I left the original (out of box) plastic on the back of my phone. I'm interested in seeing pics though!
 
I also leave my back plastic on. I'd be more concerned about the hard plastic faceplate though...ive seen marks left on older iphones from those.

At the end of the day, this case is really meant for one thing, hard falls. Once the contract period is up most of us will just trade up and get a $200 promotional credit (from most major carriers) or give the device to a friend/family member in need. Small scratches aren't going to effect the price and if you were walking around with the phone naked, I presume you would have more issues than minor scuffs from dust and dirt getting under the case.

Just my opinion however, ymmv.
 
All Colors Available! | Real World Test

First and foremost, ALL COLORS OF SHELL AND SLIPS NOW AVAILABLE!!!

Secondly, I dropped my phone from about 4 feet today while taking it out of my jacket pocket walking in my warehouse... Oops! It took a nasty spill and hopped, skipped, jumped and smacked down with a final "Craaack" on the concrete floor... "OH crap..."

NO DAMAGE!! Woooo!!! Case is awesome!!!
