Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I bought this case for my new iPhone 12 Pro Max because Otterbox says it’s supposed to fit. Well, it barely fits, and the fit is incredibly tight-I had to go back and check the description to confirmm Otterbox claims it will fit the 12 Pro Max.. I am not a stranger to Otterbox cases and all have comfortably fit my devices. Not this case. I stretched, maneuvered and cursed this thing for fifteen minutes trying to figure angle to get this thing on without damaging the phone. I finally got it on and it’s a very, very tight fit. The phone does not comfortably nest in the case, and I’m not sure I’d ever get the case back on if I took it off. I’m keeping this ill-fitting junk long enough to get a clear Apple case, and then I’m throwing it away. Returns to Amazon are just too bureaucratic to tolerate. My suggestion would be, DO NOT BUY THIS for an iPhone 12 Pro Max. A secure fit is one thing and too damn small and tight is another. Just too small and nearly completely unusable. Additional warning: tried this on my wife’s smaller iPhone 11 Pro Max with rounded edges. Fit perfectly. Should tell you a lot, and that Otterbox did not have an actual iPhone 12 Pro Max to try this on. I think Otterbox blew it here, big time. Would be a good case for the 11, but not the 12 Pro Max. Final edit: for comparison, I ordered the genuine Apple MagSafe Clear Case (same price). It fit perfectly, securely and without struggle. I sent this Otterbox back. If you have the iPhone 12 Pro Max, I suggest you don’t get this case, but rather something where they actually had a real phone to design and fit it too. As a kudo to Amazon, with their new return process there was no hassle. I took it back to the UPS Store, handed them the case and they scanned my return code on my phone-that was it. No need to address, package, print or wait. Greatness. Thanks Amazon.
