How do I take my OtterBox Defender off?
If the device is in a belt clip or other snap-on attachment, pop it off using the large tab on the side. This will make it much easier to take the rest of the case off, so it’s best to do it right away. The process for removing a Defender Otterbox case will be the same for virtually all devices (iPhone, Android, etc.).
Can you take the clip off the OtterBox Defender case?
Yes. The “belt clip” snaps on and off the phone case, but the kick stand can‘t be removed.
