Thanks for the pictures.

Does Best Buy have the Defender for the edge in stores?

You can go onto their site and put in your zip code and that will tell you if they have it at your local one.

Yes, most of the stores have them in Stock.

I agree about the Defender making the typing a little harder. You have to press a little harder and sometimes hit a key twice, but the protection and grip are well worth it.

I have, as of yet, been able to find it locally. Dang podunk town.

I called all around the Tulsa area today and argued that they even existed.

Verizon now shows them on their website, but they havent hit the stores yet.

I got mine over the weekend, ordered on Amazon. I am really, really impressed with how well the fit is on this. I've had bad experiences with almost every Defender screen protector in the past and have ripped them all out but this one fits really well. There is no gap, pillowing or rainbow. It's a little harder to press keys but the edge screen swipes easily. The case is super protective, I am confident that this thing can take a face plant and be ok and the grip on the case is the best in the business (one of the features that I love about the Defender, their other cases are slippery).

I'd highly recommend this case if you are looking for the ultimate in protection. It's not too bulky since the phone is very small to begin with.

I have to agree. Great case. Built in screen protector is nice. I do notice I have to press a little harder to type.

I've gotten used to it already, I am really liking this case

When you say it is a little harder to type, is it annoying? Can you swipe text easily?

It's annoying at first, but I've gotten used to it. I don't swipe to text so I can't really comment on that.

Swipe works fine, as good as naked. Some of the letters are harder to type near the curved edges

Amazon has pulled the Defender for the S7 Edge. I had one in my cart and there was a vague message about a problem people were reporting - either ability to fulfill orders or customer dissatisfaction. Also, there are only 3 youtube reviews of the case. By now, everyone who does these reviews should have one out since there hasn't been much to review since the case first came out. This concerns me - especially for a 60.00 case.

My case is fine. Not having any trouble with it. I love it!

I am taking mine back to best buy until they update it. I had problems typing with the screen protector on. Especially around the edges.

I don't think they are going to be able to change that due to the curve. I've gotten used to it. I actually really like this screen protector, it fits so well I don't get a lot of dust in between like on other defender cases

 

[anon(1733)]

Glad it's working out for you. It is a great case. Felt great. Just couldn't get used to that screen.

There are generic ones that have been out longer now that look just like the Defender only cheaper that you can get on Amazon. I have a generic one similar to an Otterbox Defender for my regular S7 and it actually is a tighter fit and the screen protector is more responsive and not as much air gap or dirt gets under it.

 

[Visc]

I'm surprised, I really like this car case

best Buy no longer offers it on their website and Amazon doesn't have it in stock now. Someone posted recently about this as well. I guess there was something defective about them.

That's odd, this is the best fitting screen protector I've ever had on a Defender, it fits so well I don't get dust underneath like past models. Maybe I got lucky, I am really happy with this case.
