My mother bought the Otter box cover and I must say it is The best birthday present she has gotten me in a long time. I won't go anywhere with it on my phone. I tell my friends and co-workers about it and they can see for themselves how colorful and sturdy it really is. High quality for a good price. I would say to anyone who has a phone, go out and buy one. You have such an array of colors to chose from too.
Pros: High quality, Durable, good reasonable price
The case has some simple design flaws. The bottom of the case, where it is supposed to fold over and lock in over the headphone jack and charging ports, it doesn't quite all the way over. Also, the hole for the headphone jack was too small for my headphones, so I had to buy headphones specifically for my phone. Also annoying. It keeps trying to peel of my screen protector too. Just stuff that needs to be considered.
Pros: High quality, Durable
Cons: headphone jack is small, difficult to have screen protector
This is my first Otter Box, and from this case's reviews, I was a little nervous to buy, but I figured I'd give it a shot...and I love it! Luckily, I don't drop my phone A LOT so I have not had to test its protection too many times yet, but its not too bulky to be put in a pocket, and the plastic allows it to slide out of the pocket as well. The lock screen button is hard to push at first, but it softens up!
I have been using Otter Box ever since the Iphone has come back. I have upgraded to the newer Iphone every time it came out. If the previous Otter Box I had did not fit the newer phone I would purchase another Otter Box. Think about how many I have purchased. I find the material top quality. The design is excellent. You can pick from thin line protection to heavy duty protection. They all carry the same protection. As soon as Otter Box comes out with a battery backup case I plan on purchasing it. All my family and relatives use Otter Box because of my recommendation. As long as I have an Iphone I plan on using Otter Box to protect it.
I use the commuter. I tried the defender, but the case was too rubbery to get in and out of my pocket. I am on my 5th outer shell for the commuter. When it drops the only part that cracks is the lower right... It does its job protecting the phone though. If I didn't have the case I am guessing I would be on about my 9th new iPhone. The outer case cracking is acceptable to me. I might try one of their new life proof or total cases whatever they are called as they are a bit thinner and can still get them out of my pocket.
The case and slipcover are great! However, the clear screen protector is useless. Hard to apply, and impossible to get rid of the bubbles. There was also a label glued on that wouldn't peel off cleanly, you had to use solvent to remove the residue. I threw the protector away.
This is a great case that protects my phone well. After a while, the soft inner part gets a little stretched out and doesn't fit within the hard part as well so I don't recommend removing the case often. I drop my phone all the time and it is always fine in this case! One of the times I dropped my phone, I cracked the outer case and it was super easy to get a new one by filling out a form online and submitting pics. I am overall happy with this case and with otterbox!
Pros: High quality, Durable, pretty!
Cons: inside rubber gets stretched out after a while
