I just purchased my iPhone about a month ago, and I have already said, "thank goodness for my phone case" about 4 times. My son accidentally dropped my phone from a tall counter-top to the tile floor and there isn't a scratch on the phone. My teenage son has used Otterbox for his phone and he highly recommends it also. It has been our experience that Otterbox is very good about sending you a new case if there is any damage done to the product.

Case protects well and is not really bulky. Front can make touch screen hard to work

The case is great for protection, however, be prepared for color transfer. The pink won't stay clean or pink - the edges and corners will soon be black and blue

Our 18-year-old daughter uses this otterbox. She set the phone on top of her car at school as she put in her books and was distracted and forgot the phone and drove off. A few minutes later she remembered and went back, to find that several cars had run over the phone--which was in perfect condition. The only thing wrong with the otterbox was a small piece of the flap over the charger was broken off. Very well worth the money!

I needed the best case for my 5s and the OtterBox is the only brand I choose. I have two 6s Plus units and I have dropped both many times. One uses an OtterBox the other uses a Ballistic Tungsten Slim which I was unable to locate for some time. I love the Ballistic cases but OtterBox is available for all of my iOS devices - iPhone and iPad Pro. High price but worth it after that first drop.

Protects Iphone but is bulky and clunky

This cover protects the phone well. Kind of like wrapping it in a blanket or bubble wrap. However it is somewhat difficult to install and it makes the phone very bulky so you cant easily carry the phone in a pocket or slim-line holster. The trade off is that you can drop the freaking phone on a tile floor and it wont shatter - but the tradeoff is you have a clunky package to carry and no longer fits easily in a pocket.

Hey Jimbo,
We apologize that this Defender series isn't entirely matching up with your style so far! While the multiple layers of the case do add a lot in terms of protection, we completely understand that the rugged design isn't necessarily for everyone. If you're looking for something that still provides excellent device security, but in a slimmer style, we would recommend our Commuter series! The Commuter is sleek, and focuses on pocket-friendly protection. Check it out via the link below, and feel free to call our friendly Otters at 1-855-688-7269 with any other questions that you may have!

I bought the Otterbox Defender case because a friend had the same size iPhone that I had just bought, and she had no problems for several years. My salesman also installed the case and the screen protector. In just over a month, it has worked perfectly and the size and texture of the case make it easier to grab and hold on to. No problem with dropping like my old flip phone.
