Does anyone have an Otterbox Defender? If so, how is it?

[Manny13840]

And for whatever reason the camo otterbox and designed otter boxes fit and feel better... I found that ever since the 4s

Ok you were right about the built in protector on my otterbox it got me insanely enough to go buy myself a 5th zagg glass once again some specs behind the glass, but was able to remove them with tape, now I removed the otterbox built in protector but it left the glue residue how do I remove the residue?

You are gonna think I'm nuts but honestly take a bit of lighter fluid or gasoline on a rag and the glue wipes right off. Just make sure you rinse the case well afterwards. This works believe me

Get yourself some "Goo Gone" works wonders to get rid of the residue.

How is the access to the control center at the bottom? any issue because of the case lip?

Ba careful, I use gas once and destroyed the case. I just keep rubbing the are until the glue comes off.

Just picked up this defender a few minutes ago for my 6. I love the camo one without the apple cutout.

Sorry for the double post hit the wrong key.

No it's better cause it's cut out by the home button so it eliminated that issue

Sweet, they need to get on the ball with the 6 Plus cases. Thanks.

The Otterbox Defender is by far my Favorite case for my 5S and now the 6! But the case and ability to use is so much better when you take the screen protector out and put a tempered glass one in!

For any glue residue that was left I jist took it off with Goo Gone, then cleaned it well with Dawn Dish Detergent, just to make sure the goo gone wouldnt damage the phone finish if any was left.. In the end no glue left and did not damage the otterbox or phone at all, I actually did this to all 3 Otterboxs that were bought for self and girlfriend.. No problems

Guys DONT BUY THE DEFENDER!!!!!!! The film plastic that covers the Touch ID leaves a residue around it. My friend had it and his phone has a stain all over the Touch ID the residue would not go away I repeat DO NOT BUY IT!!! It's all over in macforums on accessories more user are getting there phones damage with the residue around the Touch ID...

 

[Marcus Vasquez]

Really? Should I just take off the screen protector? I don't really like this case

Hasn't happened to my phone... Had mine on for a while now

If I was you I would returned case is a piece of crap. Might wanna check around your Touch ID make sure the residue is not all ready there. It looks like a rectangular stain around the Touch ID

Really check and make sure residue looks like a rectangular ghostly image around the Touch ID

Literally just checked when I read your post and nope... Nothing on mine

 

[Marcus Vasquez]

Taking the screen protector should get rid of your issue right

I wish I could take a picture but it's hard to get it in a pic to show. It's more noticeable when you touch around the Touch ID
