What does Hybrid mean in the description of Otterbox Defender Series Hybrid? Is it not the genuine product?

The difference between that I have found between the OtterBox Defender and the OtterBox Defender hybrid for the iPhone 4 is the addition of the commuter case on the hybrid. The OtterBox Defender hybrid has a commuter case that has a belt clip that does not come with the OtterBox Defender.

I am not sure. I haven't had any issues with my case and prefer the Defender because some of the charging devices you can't charge the phone with the case on and the Defender allows you to take the bottom of the case off easily to charge.

I am not positive, but I just thing that it's a type of Otterbox that they carry. It's still a genuine Otterbox though.

It never stated it was an otterbox...mine works well with my large phone with an extended battery and case on it....well pleased so far

Sorry Tino, never got your message. I believe it's an authentic otter box, it came on a otter box case and, it has it's name engraved like any other otterBox I have bought on a cell store. Does this help? Hope so.

I got mine in March and it has completely fallen apart. I looked at the differences between the real and knock off OtterBoxes online and it is for sure fake. Just because it says Otter box on the back doesn't make it authentic. The packaging is slightly different and the case itself is low quality.

The one I received is definitely a knock off. Does not have Otter on it. The one pictured has Otter imprinted on it. This is misleading and miss represented, so beware.Also says made in USA and Otters is made in Mexico. Definitely not in OEM item. The clip appears to be cheaper. Has more of a matte finish where the original Otter has a more polished classy look. Definitely a fake or a knock off -- not as pictured on their Amazon page.

Not sure. All I know is I have heard that the defender series protects better. we have the commuter and it has protected our phones for over a year. Our phones have been dropped, thrown (by kids) and whatever else you can think of. The cases even still look great. All I can say is I highly recommend this case or the defender. Otterbox is a great product and well worth the money you pay. Hope that helps.

I still have the packaging, so I can look to see if it has warranty info. Unfortunately though, after receiving mine, I strongly suspect it to be a knockoff:/ I've owned 3 other Otterboxes and this one is obviously a lower quality and upon close comparison to my husbands (which was purchased through Verizon and is definitely real) there are obvious differences both in the case itself and the packaging. I'll look in the morning to see if it has a warranty insert.

The picture states that is an Otterbox Defender replacement. And I don't know who manufactures it.

if you look closely it says "Product DescriptionEXACT OTTERBOX QUALITY WITHOUT THE LOGO! THIS IS A GENERIC ITEM! SAVE MONEY! OTTERBOX GENERIC PREMIUM QUALITY! SHIPS FROM USA! FAST SHIPPING! " but it says "by otterbox" I do not think it is genuine. but that does not make it a bad case.

I haven't tried the hybrid. I was trying to choose between the hybrid and the slim armor. From the review videos I watched, it seems like the hybrid is a bit thinner than the slim armor. But I can't tell 110%

Mine was authentic. I called Otterbox and gave them the code inside the case and they verified it is real. Although real, mine didn't last very long. There is a one year warranty in case yours falls apart like mine did.

It is a true Otter Box product, it is hybrid because of the sleek thin design, easier to fit in your pocket. The outer shell is hard and inner shell is rubberized

I think they're both the same size only difference is that the defender series is more heavier duty. And gives more protection. That's what I was told by someone.

Hi Debra, The one Otterbox Armor series case I bought was legit. Since it's working nicely for me, I didn't need to return it so I'm not sure what sort of warranty is available. However, I'm sure Amazon would back up your purchase should the product not be what is described.

I would say if it doesn't say Otterbox in he description, it ain't an Otterbox.

You should... Just contact otterbox with any warranty issues.... They will ask for pictures of authenticity of the product

It is an actual otterbox. It came in the original packaging and has the numbers inside of case. Hope this helps.
