Does NOT Protect the Phone's Display

I bought this Defender case to house my IPhone 5. In fact I bought the case prior to the phone. I figured it offered good protection at a good price. Sure it keeps the screen free of finger prints, protects the phone's body, etc. It does nothing to protect the screen. My 3 year old daughter took the phone and dropped it onto a tile floor from less than 2 feet. The screen shattered so although it's still functional it looks bad and is hard to read the display.
Now I must pay another $800 for a new phone or hopefully I can get a new screen done at the apple store for $300.
Either way I'm most displeased with this scenario.

I don't know why I stuck with this horrid product for one year after purchasing my iPhone 5. OtterBox is selling garbage which will have you throwing money down a rat hole.
The belt clip is beyond flimsy. I don't know who designed this belt clip and decided the matierials which would be used to for it, but shoddy does not begin to describe it. I have broken THREE belt clips. THREE! Yet I kept going back to it because I could not find another product which had a belt clip until recently.
The case is so complicated it isn't worth the time and effort. Why do you need that many pieces to put together a protective case, and why does Otter Box insist on making it so hard to assemble and disassemble those pieces? The silicon is poor, and the plastic makes the screen very hard to access. And the covering still allows dirt and other particles to get trapped.
Anyone who buys this product should be forced to wear a sign saying, "I am a fool who enjoys throwing away money". Otter Box, I am never buying another one of your products again as long as I live.
The only reason I'm giving this product one star is because I can't give it any lower. If I could, it would receive a negative rating.

I had this case for about a month and the pink case picks up colors quickly. I had a white otterbox on my iPhone 4 and never had a problem with colors transfering to case. It appears otterbox changed material for this case. The volume buttons also started to peel after a few weeks. I will be returning my case to otter box.

Lousy design

This case has an inherent problem in that the holster (the belt clip itself) weakens with use and eventually breaks. I have had 4 in less then two years and will now be looking for an alternative as I'm tired of replacing a faulty product at my expense.
