A:AnswerAll the cases even Otterboxes have the sides more flush with the phone so you can have access to the edges. There is a lip on the top and bottom to protect front but I understand your concern bc I'm concerned myself... But all the cases have the side edges more exposed. Great case and I tried all of them at best buy
