work with otterbox defender case?

It will not work with an IPhone 6 defender case but it did work with my IPhone 5 defender case even though it was a tight fit. I wish I would have just spend the extra $ and bought a standard apple cable

This cable WILL NOT fit into the charge port opening of an Otter Box Defender case on an iPhone 6. HOWEVER, slightly grinding down the sides with an emery board or sandpaper will allow it to work. I placed some 220 grit sandpaper on a flat surface and rubbed each side for about 15 seconds and it fit perfectly, and the small amount of plastic removed does not affect the structural integrity of the plug. It was well worth it to be able to use this inexpensive, well-made cable. Just be sure and use a fine sandpaper so the sides of the plug remain smooth.

Will not work with my iPhone 6 otterbox defender case. Not sure on other models.

It won't work with an iPhone 6 Defender case -- I just found that out tonight when I went to charge my brand new phone. I have six of these for our iPhone 5 phones. :-( It's a great cable, though, if you don't have iPhone 6 Otterbox Defender -- I was very pleased with them.

IT DOES NOT WORK WITH THE OTTER BOX DEFENDER CASE. I had to grind a good portion of the plastic around the lightning terminal for it to fit through the casing and charge my IPHONE 5s. I am not too happy about it since I both all 3 products here on Amazon: the otter box defender case, the belt clip/pouch, and this charging cable.

Cable is great, but like many other answers it does not work with the Iphone 6 Otterbox Defender case. It does work withe the Iphone5 (and I believe 5c/5s) defender case as well, but not the Iphone 6 Otterbox Defender case. It may work on other Otterbox Iphone 6 cases, but I am not sure.

It does work with the OtterBox Defender case for the iPhone 5, but it does not work with the OtterBox Defender case for the iPhone 6. I just upgraded and will have to get out the sandpaper and files that other reviewers have mentioned. It should not take much grinding ...

No, it does not work on the iPhone 6 Defender case. The plastic head behind the 8-pin tip is too wide (by just a few hairs) to fit in the slot on the Defender case. Sadly I already bought three of these cables, so I end up having to pull the case apart at the bottom in order to use them. The cable is great otherwise and works perfectly on the Ipad.UPDATE - I spoke with a lady at Otterbox and she said they were aware of the issue and are working on making more compatible cases... she also said to file down the plastic sides of the case that are preventing the plug from connecting to the phone.

I just filed down some of the plastic that was preventing the cable from fitting. Works great. Total time spent...45 seconds. I guess I could have also filed away some of the plastic on the case too.

It works great with the defender case we purchased for our group. The team member have no issues with them.

I have no idea. I have the OTTER BOX Defender case which is pretty large and it works fine with that. Hope this helps

No, but you can purchase an extension adapter that will allow you to connect without removing the Otterbox. Check CableMatters website.

I can confirm with 100% certainty that this WILL NOT work on a Samsung Galaxy SIII with the Otterbox Defender case. I had this dock with a smaller case, and it worked great. But I decided to upgrade my case to the Defender, and it no longer fits in the bottom cradle (even with insert removed) and the top spring arm will not close on it. Looking for a new mount as we speak. :(

I have my iPhone 5 in an Otterbox Defender case. The iStabilizer Mount works fine with that case.

Yes, I have an Iphone 5 with an Otterbox Defender case and it fits fine. A little snug, but no problem!

I have the Otterbox commuter and a Samsung S4. The docking product has a removable plastic part that sits on the base and surrounds the power connector. It allows users to use the dock with or without a case. You will need to remove the plastic part for this docking station to work with your S4 phone with the OtterBox commuter case (otherwise the power connector will not reach deep enough into the phone to connect).

I haven't tried it with an Otterbox but I don't think it would fit since they're thicker cases. The case I'm using is very thin (Rearth) and there's just a little bit of excess space when I dock the phone with the case on.

I could not use it with an otterbox on my galaxy S4. I now have a ballistic case and it works fine. Measure the opening for the micro usb slot in your case then compare it to the specs on the drive.

It will not work with any cover ie otterbox. The usb3 adaptor bent the port on my phone.

I don't think so. With the large corners of the Defenders case. No. I have one of those thinner Gel cases and it works fine.

I Have been using it with the Otter box Defender case with out any problems. Other then you have to place it very carefully in the right place. I'm also using TYLT Vu Wireless Charger which I like better other then the price

Works great with my regular case on. AND my son has a Ghost that he uses with Maxx that works with his otterbox case on.

Not sure about Otterbox, but it will not work with LifeProof case... iPhone needs to be out of the case to sit in dock.

I have the otterbox commuter case and it does not work with that. But the case is pretty easy off and on so I don't mind. It does have a snap out plastic section so I think it is designed for a slim case. I friend of mine down the hall has this case:Spigen Slim Armor Case for Galaxy Note 3 - Infinity White (SGP10459)and with the plastic section out this dock connected to the phone with the case on without a problem.
