I just received my Otter Defender Pro and there are like NO directions except for those silly things on the box. Thank you for the tutorial, you saved me a ton of grief, got my Defender on my phone in record time. Double thumbs up !
Received my Otterbox today without any instructions, not even little diagrams. I appreciate you taking the time to post this wonderful how to video! Nice job.
My Defender Pro case came from Amazon without any instructions. Seemed far from self-explanatory! Thank you for a straightforward, clearly presented tutorial.
THANK YOU!! THANK YOU!! THANK YOU!! I feel so stupid. I read the instructions, watched the video by Otterbox, and still couldn’t figure it out. And I don’t want to break the new cover. I’m poor and had to save up for a cover of this magnitude. You have the BEST help video!! You made me feel good about doing this and I went step by step with you. If I could give you a hug I would. I was so frustrated 😢 because I am disabled and I’m not as smart as I used to be. Everyday I feel dumb or that I’m getting dumber. How could it be this hard to put a cover on I said. I was starting to break down mentally again. Then I watched you and did it. Now I have my Otterbox Defender on my iPhone. All because of you!! You TRULY helped someone out who struggles daily with simple things. I thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Thanks for actually explaining and showing how to open the Otterbox and installing the phone. Had to go through a few videos before finding yours that actually explained how to do it.
Thanks for the great video. The very first step is hard to find and I wasn't about to pry it apart with a screwdriver and ruin it. Great job on demonstrating the clip and how it can be used as a kickstand. I would have just thrown it in the drawer until I saw that feature. Excellent video, everything I needed to know, nothing I didn't.
I looked at another tutorial, but it showed the case *already open,* which was the part I was missing. The rubber piece fits the inner case so well, I thought it was *part* of the case and would never have thought to try to peel it off out of fear of tearing it up. Thanks for including the initial step to open the empty case.
Yes!!! Finally a quick and complete video on installing the Otterbox Defender case. I had one many years ago but forgot it was more than just popping the phone in the case. I also never knew the holster could be a kickstand. Thanks!
Just got my first otter box. I tried to follow the instructions and definitely did not understand at all that there are actually 3 pieces in the case. You saved me a BIG headache. Thank you!
I used this tutorial for my Otter Defender Pro for the iPhone 15. I have to say, intitially trying to decipher the directions on the box was really pissing me off. You relieved my frustration. Thanks.
I’ve had several otter boxes. Love them 90% of the time. Only issue with them is the top piece of plastic always seems to break right of the charger port, other than that they are great!
I just bought the Defender Pro for $19.00 @ Walmart during Cyber Monday for my new iPhone 14. What a great deal! Even w/the video, I had a hard time prying the Silicone Case loose & thought mine was a different model, but eventually found a spot to start with. It was easy after that, thanks to the great video. It sealed really well.Not sure I will use the kickstand, but the belt clip may come in handy, although not sure I will trust it to hold a $700.00 phone. Good job by TX Tool Crib!
@@OneEyeMissing I have even tried the clip. Maybe some uses at home? I figured the case and iPhone was going to be lighter. Doctor appt and errands today & I see why people carry the phone everywhere. I don't dare leave a $700.00 in the car. I'm terrified I will forget it somewhere. I'm a dumb guy w/a Smart phone. I figured out Voice Mail but Live Traffic is giving me fits. Huge learning curve for me. Thankfully, I was able to transfer my ATT Land Line number of 30 years to T-Mobile. Only took 3 days. ATT said they could not even do it. I'm saving $20.00 a month w/no contract.
After spending 15mins trying to separate the case pieces, I was blessed to find your excellent tutorial. Thank you for posting the excellent video since the case is far from self-explanatory.
Bless this video for really helping me to figure this whole process out. I was given a Samsung S20 as a hand me down with an otterbox already into a full year of corrosion from a heavy smoker who likes to sit in 92 degree or hotter trucks, so the button literally MELTED off for me to lock/unlock it, forcing me to use a pen till I saved for a replacement. My only update to this, be sure when you are trying to disengage the second and third sections (the clips, as he calls them), be sure you flip the otterbox so the back is facing you. Otherwise you really won't have a good position to get them to separate. Once I figured out I had it flipped, it became absolutely free to get it to pop out.
I wouldn’t have been able to figure this out without instructions (of which there were none with my iPad…not even pictures on the box) so thank you very much. 🙂
Still coming in handy even 2 years later! Those instructions on the side were not helpful and even two years later, still no step by step instructions. Thank you for this video!!
Thanks so much for this tutorial! It is one of those things where the directions should be simple enough, but the ones that they include with the boxes are certainly not helpful. Thanks again!
My favorite case for my mobile phones. My family uses the Commuter versions of the Otterbox. I have used multiple Defender Otterboxes over the years, and they are brilliantly designed, and will stand up to just about anything. They are worth every penny you pay for them. The only thing extra I have done is to buy a screen protector for my mobile phones. Otherwise, they are simply the best case you can buy.
Thank you so much for the video - I never would have figured that out from the little drawings! Would have also thrown that belt clip straight in the trash if you hadn't demonstrated the kickstand. 😂 I'm glad I watched until the end!
THANK YOU! Just got the iPhone 14 pro and got an otter box defender pro case and boy are those instructions in the package horrible! I would have never known to pull those two pieces apart. I was trying to slide it in and almost broke my new phone. Thanks again!
Thank you so much for making this video! I may or may not have spent the last 25 minutes sitting in the Walmart parking lot trying to figure out how to put this case on my phone😂
i swallowed my pride (I'm a retired millwright) and did a search for video help to get this Otterbox separated without breaking anything. Thanks for making it worth while. Bonus edit: You're a Millwright! Love the knots.
I don't have an iPhone, but I do have the defender pro for my android. I had no idea how to put it in and nearly broke both the case and my phone trying. Thank you very much!
Omg thank you so much ! 🙏 I didn’t know that the Defender Pro came in 4 separate stupid pieces so I was trying rather unsuccessfully to get my phone to seat correctly inside my new Defender Pro. This went on for what seemed like hours until I stumbled upon this nice little tutorial here. I was beginning to think that that it was a manufacturing screw up that made my Otterbox slightly smaller than the other models smh 🤦🏻♂️
Thanks, I was so confused and their little diagram did not convey any of what you said. This helped and did every little step I needed. Would have broken it if not for this. Thanks again
Thanks for these helpful instructions. However, since I was struggling trying to remove the frame from the case and broke my fingernails trying, I needed to go to phone store and ask them to install.
I've had Otterboxes since iPhone 5 or so. Hard to beat. I highly recommend. But, just to do something different i guess, when I got my 13 I went a different route. Hope I don't regret it.
Thank you The instructions were completely worthless and your video was perfect I didn't even know that it separated into two plastic parts It's not the same as the other OtterBoxes I've used I can't believe how poor the instructions were Thanks again
I used to roll with the Commuter line of OB. Defender series is too much for my needs. Still OB is a solid choice. However, like another poster went with something else for my 13pm. Hope it holds up! 😂

THANK YOU!!

I feel so stupid. I read the instructions, watched the video by Otterbox, and still couldn’t figure it out.
And I don’t want to break the new cover. I’m poor and had to save up for a cover of this magnitude.

Thank you sir, on all accounts.
Thank you for this. Helped me install the new cover/case. You did a much better demonstration than Otterbox themselves. LOL
Thank you so much for this actual
step-by-step tutorial.
The instructions on the box are useless.
God bless!
Thank you so much, you giving the instructions made putting this together so easy.
I was struggling for half an about I was about to cry lol then I found your tutorial thank you so much ❤
Very good set of instructions. Thanks very much.
I don't have an iPhone, but I do have the defender pro for my android. I had no idea how to put it in and nearly broke both the case and my phone trying. Thank you very much!
This applied basically verbatim to the case for my Galaxy S24+, including the clip without the arrow by the camera. Thanks!
Thank you for this! The diagram they send is useless. This made it easy-peasy!
Thank you for this. I had no clue how those instructions they provided were helpful!
Thank you for the video!!!! There were no directions with the product and I was nearly breaking my new phone trying to force it into place.
Omg thank you so much ! 🙏

You are very welcome.
Thanks. I take the inner (hard) case off using a flat head screw driver, but your method works too!
I use a butter knife to get the case off because using my nails are pain of the ass to get the case off
Thank you I could not figure this out until I watched your video!!
Thanks sooooo much! No wonder my previous cases never lasted long. I did not know there were 3 parts!
Thank you. I just got a Samsung S22 Ultra for a work phone and have never used an otterbox before and you’re very detailed so thanks!
You’re very welcome
Thank you for the guide I almost brute force this case just from the frustration of not knowing how to open the thing
Thank you so much for this video! I never would have figured it out.
Didn’t have this brand but a similar case and I was so lost on the first step 😂thanks man
Literally same process and design. I’m now realizing I got an off brand otterbox 😂
Great video. Straight forward and quick to the meat of the info. Still hate otter products but friends buy then. 😅
This was highly helpful brota
Thanks. almost broke my galaxy until I saw this video haha
OtterBox held my Iphone 7 prestine in many years 👌
Thank you so much! My employer gave me the case in a plastic bag. No instructions.
Great video. Thanks sooo much. I also didn't know that there were 3 parts, so I was trying to jam/force it in.
Perfect tutorial! Thank you for the excellent demonstration.
Thanks for these helpful instructions. However, since I was struggling trying to remove the frame from the case and broke my fingernails trying, I needed to go to phone store and ask them to install.

Finally, you made it so easy
Quality tutorial. You helped me install my otter box defender pro for my IPhone se. Thank you

Thank you so much . I almost return this case 😢 no instructions!!!!
Thank you so much for making this video sir!

I would never have figured out how to open that case if it wasn’t for this video
Thanks, couldn't figure it out from the weird instruction provided
I used to roll with the Commuter line of OB. Defender series is too much for my needs. Still OB is a solid choice. However, like another poster went with something else for my 13pm. Hope it holds up! 😂
Great video - thank you.

Otterbox should be paying you for this
Thank you ❤️
Very helpful
Thanks very helpful

You made it easy. Thanks. The instructions on the box are terrible.
Thank you
Otterbox cases lift my screen protector unfortunately
