Case broken

Phone case rubber is ripped; the case is causing me to not be able to use the side buttons without taking the case off. Plastic is cracked and damaged, case is not protected my phone properly anymore.

The same replacement would be suitable to resolve my issue.

I’ve been an OtterBox owner for over 10yrs. I love the product and value there loyalty to there customers.

Otterbox - Poor Service on warranty
Updated by user Sep 08, 2026

Company fixed the issue and I have been provided with product replacement. Sent company photos of product failure.

They replaced it. Don' t give up or take no for an answer.

Updated by user Aug 25, 2026

Used several OtterBox's and found them robust. The case of the Galaxy S22 is flimsy and the quality of the materials is a digression from what I expect from them. Rubber broke into pieces from normal daily use.

Original review Aug 24, 2026

Rubber shield started breaking apart. Made warranty claim.

Truepix only responds to Chrome browsers. Truepix contact us will not accept email from Gmail or Yahoo, so you can't contact when Chrome won't work. It appears they are making warranty claims impossible to make. I have pictures taken with my cell phone, but there is no way to submit.

It is a never-ending loop of you can't do that. By a product.

Pros:
  • Older models were excellent
Cons:
  • Quality of their products appears to be degenerating

Preferred solution: Deliver product or service ordered

User's recommendation: buy a cell phone protector from anyone but OtterBox. Product quality is down the toilet

Can’t get my otter box replacement

Contacted the company first

The reviewer tried to contact the company before posting this review.

I spoke with a representative, gave her all my info and warranty info. She set up a link for me to get a replacement OtterBox, but the link just said out of stock, and no further options to resolve this issue.

Out of stock means out of luck for me. I've been a loyal OtterBox customer for many years; hope this doesn't end on a sad note.

Pros:
  • I like the protection it gives my phone
Cons:
  • Customer service sucks

Preferred solution: Deliver product or service ordered

User's recommendation: Be weary

The customer service team is great. The website and link to take pictures are designed to discourage you until you give up.

AI Highlights
  • - The staff was helpful on the call.
  • - Proof of damage steps were unclear; I didn't follow them.
  • - The case is broken; I can send photos if asked.

When I talked to a live person , they were very helpful, but when trying to follow the instructions for proof of damage, I obviously didnt do it the correct way by taking a picture of a picture of the broken part.

I will be extremely disappointed with Otter Box if this issue cant be resolved.

As it sits now I have a broken case and nothing is being done about it I have the pictures on my phone now and can send them if asked
