Customers love the Commuter Series Case's protection and fit, frequently praising its ease of use and attractive colors. Many appreciate the case's quality and reasonable price, although some find it slightly bulky and note the lack of a built-in screen protector. A few users experienced issues with port compatibility, particularly the headphone jack and speaker openings. Overall, the positive feedback on protection and fit outweighs the concerns about bulk and port access.

This is a quality case that looks very nice. It is easy to put on the phone. It provides great protection for my son's phone. I purchased this for his new phone because he dropped his last J3 and shattered the screen after only a month. Always buy the case!

I've always purchased the Otterbox brand cases for my phones. They provide piece of mind knowing they're protected from everyday scratches and dings. I wish this one would have come with a screen protector, but i just kept the original one on, from when I bought it.

This case fit perfectly and looks great. At first while looking for a case I thought this would be too bulky, but ends up it is not. I looked at other less expensive cases, but they were extremely flimsy offering little protection. Happy I went with this one.

Great product! Such an ultra protector, I always go with Otter protection for all my gadgets! Never dissatisfied, though I wish they all came with built-in screen protectors so I didn't have to install those separately (a pain in the butt sometimes).

Case fits great. Only problems with it is the case covers most of the flash for the camera and the speakers are covered. Was recommended for use with the Samsung Galaxy J7 Emerge by the salesman!

I got this case for my Samsung j3 phone. It was the determining factor in me getting the phone since I am very rough on electronics and wished to have a good protective case. The openings for the headphone/sound Jack do not line up. The speakers are blocked. I must remove the case in order to hear things and access the Jack. There are other holes that line up with nothing. The camera barely fits and the flash is blocked. All in all, not pleased after the sales people advised me it would fit the phone (which I had to pick up at a diff store).

Brand response from OtterBox Customer Support

Hi KayakerGrl,
Uh oh, it sounds like there may have been a mix-up with your case, especially since that Commuter might be the companion piece for a different phone. There is a pretty big difference between the cases for the Galaxy J3 Emerge and the Galaxy J3 (2016)/J3 V. The case for the Galaxy J3 Emerge has a headphone jack port on the right side of the case (front screen up), whereas the Galaxy J3 (2016) has a port on the left side. As one of our most trusted retailers, we are confident that Best Buy will be able to straighten this out with ease, but if you have any additional questions about the cases, we are always glad to help out. Just call up our awesome Otters at 1-855-688-7269, and they'll solve this puzzle for you!
Best, OtterBox Customer Service Team

I've only had the case for a couple of months but so far I love it. I have dropped the phone and the case not only protected my phone but the case didn't crack. I like that it's not so smooth you can't keep hold of it in your hands.

Just before Christmas I was looking for a cell phone case for my son's phone. The cell phone case was not in stock. The assistant looked up the item on the computer, placed the order, processed payment, and had it delivered to my home before Christmas with no shipping fee.
Thanks for the GREAT service and the TIMELY DELIVERY.

I've had an OtterBox case before. This is my second one. They provide great protection. Cool aqua blue color at an excellent price (it was marked down). Only down side is they're a little bit bulky!

Otter Box Commuter series is good protection for the Samsung Galaxy, and the Aqua color is very different from the usual black-blue-white, etc.
A very good price from BB made this one heckuva deal!

My daughter just got a new phone and I needed a reliable phone cover. Otterbox has proven it's worth the price. I won't go with anything else. This cover is protecting that phone. It's also stylish.

This Otterbox case was for my wife's phone. It arrived quickly and was easy to put on. So far it has protected her phone from bumps and drops perfectly. It is slim and she liked the color too.
