UNRIVALED comfort & protection!
The last 6 cases for my phones have been the Defender series, for SO many reasons. I test and review many cases and other tech/devices, and I have to say hands down that these cases are the TOUGHEST, most DURABLE, and STILL the most comfortable cases I've ever used. I literally recommend them to everyone vigorously. There are MANY other cases that APPEAR or CLAIM to work just the same, with the dual layer protection and all, but my Defender cases are never taken off or even damaged, as the construction is so thought out. I could go on, but you get the picture. Built in screen protection, padding inside inner hard shell, hard shell CLIPS AND LOCKS together, then the outer shock protection layer even covers it all AND clips around the previous layers clips, ENSURING that it will NEVER fall out of the case. On top of that, it comes with a very protective hard shell holster with a strong but compact clip (even rotates to wear it any way on belt, etc.), but it also can hold the phone so that it protects the entire front of the screen OR the back, where the camera or the screen is now ULTIMATELY protected. I will be ano Ottorbox customer for life. HOPE THIS HELPS!

This Otter Fits like a glove
This otter box for my Samsung Galaxy S5 has the perfect amount of protection for everyday work use. It come with a belt clip which is usually a high cost add on accessory.

Not as bulky as I thought it's going to be, great
While Commuter series is considered to be their “slimmer” version, Defender series adds some noticeable bulk with a full wrap around protection, but it’s too bad. Either way, it’s a price to pay for an ultimate protection – and that’s exactly what you are going to get! Starting with an inner interlocking PC shell you have a built-in screen protector and also another thin layer of shock absorbent material inside of that shell. A built-in screen protector is film based and has a cutout for home button. The assembly of inner plastic case was a huge improvement over the previous Defender cases where tabs are a lot easier now to interlock and pull apart. On top of that, you have another silicone shock absorption layer placed over the PC shell. That piece adds another layer of shock protection and also significantly improves a grip. Also, you don’t have to worry anymore about your phone sliding off the surface when placed face up. Of course, facing down you also have a considerable amount of front lip to keep it off the surface. Just keep in mind this is just a film screen protector where any direct impact will not protect your display. For that you will need a tempered glass protector, but with Defender you can only use a thin tempered glass to fit inside of the inner shell. Just like with a Commuter, Defender has micro usb and headphone ports covered and protected from any dirt and dust. Also, volume and power buttons are covered and have a nice tactile response when pressed. The rest of the ports have precise cutouts and perfect alignment. The only issue which still remains is micro-usb port opening being limited by plastic guards of the inner shell that allow only use of an average or narrow charging connectors. It’s probably not going to be an issue for majority, but I do have to acknowledge that some micro-usb cables with a larger connector might not fit. Last but not least, Otterbox also comes with a belt-clip holster which allows you to carry your Defender case attached to the belt. Belt-clip holster will come especially handy when you spend a lot of time outdoors. The Defender case fits inside of the holster both face in and face out. Typically for extra protection you would want to keep it face in, but there is also an advantage to place it face out since a belt clip locks in open position and doubles as a kickstand to place your S6 in landscape orientation to watch a movie or to play a video, etc.
