I bought this case for my husband for Christmas. His old case was cracked and sad looking and he has a habit of dropping his phone on the ground. I no longer have to worry about his phone breaking with this new case - I am fairly certain that it is indestructible! Part of the case is a screen protector so he also no longer has to worry about smudges, dirt, etc. Even through the screen protector, his phone is extremely responsive - it's almost like it's not there. The reason I only give it 4 out of 5 stars is that it can be a pain to take the phone out of the case and the first time we tried to open the case to put his phone in it, we literally had to google how to open it. Otherwise, this case is extremely sturdy and I think it is great!

I compared both the life proof case and this otterbox case before making the purchase and this case provides more protection than the lifeproof with all things considered ( except that it's not waterproof). In addition, this case works with both the iPhone 5 and 5s except the fingerprint scanner doesn't work when using the 5s but that's ok with me. I would rather protect the home screen button anyways. I would definitely recommend this case!!

I'm pretty clumsy with phones. I needed a case that protected the body as well as the screen. This case does the job. Unfortunately, the finger print passcode can't be used with this particular case.
