OtterBoxiPhone 16 Pro Defender Series Case - Black (Single Unit Ships in polybag)

I'm really delighted with this cover. It's so durable that I've dropped it multiple times without it being damaged. I previously bought the replica, and it wasn't as durable, but this one is worth it. If you want to take care of your phone, I recommend it! It's worth the price.

Easy to install not too bulky very durable protects from amazing couldn’t be happier with my purchase

Why did you pick this product vs others?:Otter Box is my preferred phone case due to its heavy duty protection. Been using them for years with each upgrade.

Was exactly as shown. Durable and fit my iPhone perfectly.

I've bought an OtterBox Defender case for every phone I've had starting with my BlackBerry. I love the signature Defender design consisting of (1) a hard case that snaps to the front and back of the phone and surrounds the entire phone and (2) a silicone layer around the entire hard case on the outside, such that the entire phone is protected with both a hard layer and a silicone layer, with the silicone on the outside providing maximum grip and minimizing the chance of accidentally dropping the phone. That design has carried over to the OtterBox Defender for the iPhone 16 Pro. Unfortunately, this case has two weaknesses (described below) that made me look for an alternative. But after an exhaustive search, I could not find any better options, and so I decided to stick with the OtterBox Defender for my iPhone 16 Pro.Strengths:1. Strong, solid case should offer great drop protection (unless you just happen to drop it on an edge in such a way that the phone manages to hit something in the cut out for the Camera Control)2. Interior plastic shell protects the back, corners, and sides of the phone (but doesn't protect the screen at the location of the large cut out for the Camera Control)3. Exterior silicone layer covers the entire back, corners, and sides of the phone (except at the location of the cut out for the Camera Control), providing both protection and a great grip4. Unlike most cases that just snap onto the back of the phone, the OtterBox Defender has (1) a plastic frame consisting of a front piece and a back piece that snap together with the iPhone 16 Pro inside, and (2) a silicone cover that goes on top of the plastic frame. The result is that the case is much more securely attached to the iPhone, and it is practically impossible for it to pull away from the edges or snap off accidentally.Weaknesses:1. The plastic shell barely extends above the screen on the sides (but it does extend more at the top and bottom), providing only very minimal screen protection. The design would be greatly improved if the plastic shell extended farther above the screen on the sides as it does on the top and bottom. (The OtterBox Defender XT for the iPhone 16 Pro does have a plastic shell that extends above the screen on all four sides, but it doesn't have a silicone back and part of the sides are plastic instead of silicone over plastic frame all of the way around.)2. The case has a HUGE cut out for the Camera Control. Although it makes it easy to use the Camera Control, there is NOT protection for the side of the phone or the screen in that area. The design would be much better if the plastic frame extended across the front of the screen next to the Camera Control like it does no the back side. .... It would have been even better if OtterBox had designed a Camera Control button like you find in the Spine Tough Armor T (Ai) case or the SUPCASE Unicorn Beetle Mag case.Overall, I think this is the best option for the iPhone 16 Pro if you're looking for a case that maximizes drop protection and provides an excellent grip. ... But I hope OtterBox or someone else makes a case that has the same strengths listed above but fixes the weaknesses listed above. That would be a 5 star case.

This is a great product for protecting your phone. This is my 3rd. I have had one for each cell phone I have owned. It has saved my phones after several drops on my cement garage floor.

Easy installation. Not too bulky as I thought it would be. Great for the type of job I do and no need to worry about my phone cracking if dropped.

Tough phone case, have dropped it on the concrete several times.
