OtterBox - Commuter Series Case for Samsung Galaxy S8+ - Black

Fits my S8+ like a glove and seems pretty drop proof. It better be because the case material is a slippery hard plastic that makes one handed operation difficult and annoying. I would think that while protection is important in a case, prevention of the need of that protection should be the first priority. Also it is so obvious, I have to wonder if they use their own product? For the money there are just as good protective cases that you are far less likely to drop due to a poor grip. If you don't believe me please at least stick your phone it and give it a good feel first. I am sure the lack of texture is nice to not get it to snag in your pocket but personally I think that is the biggest issue with this case. I think a lanyard hole would be smart at the very least for those tricky pictures from high places or over water.

Unit is fine for every day commuting, but if you drop it while it's on a Samsung Galaxy S8+(curved screen), the screen will not last. Happened to my 8 day old phone. $199 to replace phone because they can't replace the glass.

This case will not survive a drop from four feet off the ground my s8 plus has a nasty running crack and it looks so ugly now. Thanks Otter Box RIP to my baby!

Over the years I have bought at least a dozen Otter Box cases for my family and have never had a problem until now. On a minor drop from a seated height the case cracked in half! I've included a picture and you can see that the outer hard shell totally failed. It was a corner impact, and the phone actually only suffered a corner dent and a 1/4" chip from the corner of the screen, but the hard outer case broke right off. Definitely not what I expected from Otter Box. :(

Previous experience with OtterBox protecting our phones convinced us to stay with a winner for our new phones. Was not disappointed. Easy to put on, fit perfectly with no loss to phone functionality, and protects the phone.
