The OtterBox Defender Case offers long-term, effective protection for the Samsung Galaxy S9 Plus. Its 3 layers protect your device against drops, scratches, bumps, and dust. The case has a raised lip which helps protect the touchscreen against scratches. The polycarbonate casing helps prevent damage caused by drops. Strategically placed silicon also helps absorb shocks and bumps. Thanks to the cutouts, all buttons and ports remain accessible. The belt clip is removable, but you might want to take a good look at it before you do. You can tilt the clip to turn it into a stand for your device. In short, the Otterbox Defender Case is suitable for tough situations, without sacrificing functionality.
