Very strong and durable case which has saved my phone from several falls. Previously had used the bigger more rugged case but wanted something more sleek without sacrificing the durability, and this has been a great option.
Only negative is the back of the case is very smooth, so sometimes can feel a little bit slippy in the grip, a slight texture or rubber feel would help a lot making the case feel secure in one hand.
Best phone case I’ve had for ages. As a tradesman I give my phone a lot of abuse day to day. This has protected it well but is smart enough to use when your not at work.
I really like the case. It adds quite some bulk to the phone but it does pay off with sturdiness and durability. My one gripe is I think they should provide the belt clip in with the case as it isn’t a cheap case, but it is a minor concern.
Bought this as I have used the defender series for all my other phones in the past.
This one is weird as a it doesn’t come with the Holster or the built in screen like other ones.
The back is made of some sort of plasticy material that makes me wonder if the MagSafe stuff would just fall right off yet to be see
Materials:
Made with 50% recycled military standard (MIL-STD-810G 516.6) plastic
Impressions:
Raised edges protect camera and screen, which are nice.
Sleek case designed to work with Apple’s MagSafe system (Works with Apple’s MagSafe charger and Qi Wireless charging)
Port covers block dirt, dust and lint from getting into jacks and ports.
Remarks:
Priced at 47.37 is way too much for what it really is. I’ve had better cases at a cheaper price
For this price i would expect a Screen & camera protector, but this wasn’t included inside.
Not stylish but a dull design.
The case is really thin, is it really a defender model??
Overall i was dissapointed with this case, it’s so expensive so i though it would be amazing. But guess what, it wasn’t. There was no screen protector or lens protector inside, but it costs 47.37?!?
The case itself is too thin, is it really a defender model? The plastic felt like a standard plastic, nothing special to it to justify the cost.
Yes it works with Magsafe system, but again at this price??
Love this case it’s bulky and it tough, I’ve dropped my phone (iPhone 12 pro max) loads of times with this case on, and no damage to the phone, but the case does damage easy, cheaper to buy another case than another phone
This case excellent but the reason I gave it a four star rating instead of a five was that I would have preferred the camera lenses too be more recesses into case for better protection but that’s just my opinion.
This case is as says in the name defender, it protects your phone in dropping. The back has a piece of metal to conduct the MagSafe charging, which works really well. All the buttons on the side are protected, including the charging port that has a lid that is removeable in case you only use the wireless charging which will prevent it from collecting dust. It is a rugged case, it fits pro max perfectly!
No screen protector included for a 50 case, I think it is a touch pricey.
I have reviewed this case for both the iPhone 12 mini and iPhone 12 Pro Max. The cases are identical except for the size.
* MagSafe works – even though the case is thick, MagSafe still works as expected
* High quality materials
* Good grip and feels comfortable to hold, much more comfortable than a bare iPhone
* Raised lip – good for putting the screen flat down when doing work
Overall, I’d highly recommend this case. The price point is higher than your average case but I believe the good built justifies this.
I would definitely say that this is very good in terms of durability. This is the best I have ever tried compared to any I have tried out in the past. I have dropped my iPhone 12 pro from height distance but surprisingly there were no scratches or marks.
However, in terms of thickness, it is quite thick and doesn’t help make my iphone look stand out but makes it lose its premium appearance. But to sacrifice that look then this phone case will protect the phone because I have had a few hard falls but luckily this saved it.
In terms of price point, I would definitely say that this is very very pricey at 55.99 (at the time of the review)for an iPhone case but I would definitely say it is worth protecting that is something really expensive and will definitely come handy.
In terms of fit, it fits really well and is very easy to grip as with holding the phone naked is very hard to hold as it slips but this helps it grip which feels nice. (Magsafe is also compatible with this case which is very well done from my end!)
Overall, this is a very good case in terms of durability as I have dropped it several amount of times on concrete but luckily it saved my iPhone which is very expensive and is worth the shot putting this case on because it is very handy at times when it drops.
I’ve had a few otterbox cases over the years and they’ve always been top quality, this one was no different.
The case itself is very robust and tough, it’s easy to put on and houses my iPhone 12 very well.
I have no doubt it’s protection is all I’ll need and the fact it has MagSafe built in is a god send. No cases do these days and the magnet never sticks, but with this case, it fits MagSafe so easily.
Fully recommend!

I was a little hesitant in ordering this case at first as it was not released at the time of ordering so had no reviews for it and it cost double of what I paid for my previous 2 cases combined, in the end I decided what the heck, if I wasn’t happy then I could always return it.
I guess my doubts all vanished the moment I opened the box, the case just oozes quality from the the first moment I held it in my hands and once I fitted it onto my phone, it seemed like a match made in heaven, the grip on the case was perfect, I felt like I could still have a firm grip even with sweaty hands and not worry about it slipping out of my hand, my phone felt rugged and well protected and that it could withstand dropping.
As advertised the case is Magsafe compatible and the magnetic connection is much stronger than my previous cases, I’d say the connection is even more stronger than WITHOUT the case, it took a bit of force to prise it off my Magsafe charger!
If there’s a bad point about this case then I’d say it may make the phone slightly bigger for some people but for me I was actually happy with the added size.
All in all I was more than happy with this case and highly recommend it if you’re after case that provides good protection.
