I just received this and it is too big for my phone.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hi Rachel,
We are sorry for any confusion with your OtterBox purchase. It looks like only the outer plastic shell part of the Commuter case was ordered. This would explain the poor fit, it also requires the inner silicone slipcover to complete the case.
Below is a link that will take you to the Commuter slipcovers we have available that will make your Commuter whole and provide the protection your iPhone deserves.
Of course, if you have any questions, please feel free to give our friendly Otters a call at 1-855-688-7269. We are happy to help!
Best, OtterBox Customer Service Team

Good case, but doesn't offer as much as LifeProof
on October 12, 2012
Posted by: Illini2
I received my OtterBox case today and it seems to be a good case, the quality is very good and fit as well. The power button cover makes it very difficult to push down on it, which is not good at all. The bulkness of the case somewhat bothers me, but that comes with any good case you would buy. I'm not sure if this case is going to stand a chance against the new IPhone 5 LifeProof case coming out.
Pros: High quality, Durable
Cons: button use, charger cover
I would recommend this to a friend!

GREAT CASE! Just don't choose white...

I've had this case on my phone for about a year now and it has saved me from several drops (pavement, tile floor, down the stairs, you name it). The case barely shows any damage and my phone looks new still, however, DO NOT get the white rubber! Dirt attaches to it like crazy and if you try to wash it, the rubber just peels away. Also, you should take the case off every few weeks and fully clean it out- some dirt does get in between the cracks, but that's hard to prevent. Overall it's been an awesome purchase and worth the money!
My daughter had an otter box for her phone but the outer cover broke after a couple of months (and falls). So I bought this as a replacement for the broken one and was happy that I could save money by only buying the outer part. The inner shell was still in good condition and I did not want to waste it. Outer shell fits perfectly, and has already survived a couple of drops. Glad, that my daughters phone is well protected.
I have purchased a couple of these phone coves and Otterbox should make couple of design changes. I love the soft silicone but around the bottom where all the ports are should be some type of hard material because the cover doesn't want to stay snapped in place. Otherwise I could have given 5 stars.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I would go with the Defender Series case

I purchased this case thinking it would give my phone proper protection. I ended up getting the Defender series case to replace this one. There is no screen protector and the case itself does not feel very durable should you drop your phone. Don't waist your money.
