    I never buy a new phone and not an otter box for it. I have dropped my phone many times and every time I pick it up and think it will be broke it's not. Now when I drop my phone I don't even get startled I know it will be fine when I pick it up.

    I ended up with the defender after trying the commuter series case. It was a little thicker, but I felt it was worth it to get the best protection case for my new S8+ phone. Love the color. Good to see the selection of colors other than just black.

    Very annoying due to the fact that S8 screen is arguably most breakable in the market to date.

    This product has protected my phone very well. The two plastic teeth on the holster that clip it to the phone cover are not very strong. They broke off and I had to buy a whole new replacement. To just replace the holster.

    This item fits like a glove, but would have been easier if there were instructions that came with it. However, thanks to the helpful folks at Best Buy in Altamonte Springs, FL the sales consultant did it for me. Looks great, and works so well.

    Been using this cell phone case for 16 months. Phone 100% protected all the time. Protects screen. The camera hole could use some protection. I just tape a piece of metal over this area and that protects the lens and gives me security when not taking photos.

    After paying out a good chunk of money for a new phone for my construction worker son I didn't want to take any chances. This case is rugged enough that I don't have to worry. It has gotten beat up a little but the phone is still scratch free.
