Product description

The OtterBox for iPhone Defender series is unlike any case we've made in the past! While your touch screen is covered by a patented thin membrane, it still remains fully usable through the case. Not only that, but all ports remain accessible through convenient silicone plugs. Sync and charge your phone right through the case! Included with the case is a holster style belt clip for carrying convenience. This case offers bump, drop and shock protection. The only feature not usable through the case is the silence switch.

User reviews

  Got what I was lookin for!, 2009-11-08
This case is great, especially for a phone dropper. Exactely what I wanted and much cheaper than buying it from the company directly. Highly recommend for anyone who is worried about dropping their iPhone.

 

  Best iphone case, 2009-11-07
This case is durable and protects against moisture and shock. When you put your iphone in the case inevitably a bubble will form between the phone and the cover. This is the only drawback to the case besides not having an armband for it when you are doing cardio in the gym. It still gets five stars from me. I really don't think there is a better case on the market.

 

  The Best !, 2009-11-06
I purchased my OtterBox Defender (ODB) case about a month ago. I read most of the reviews at that time. I couldn't be happier with my ODB. The price was about half of that charged @ the AT&T store. Putting the case on the phone is a little tricky, but manageable. As long as you make sure that the phone is completely seated in the holster I've had no problems with the phone dislodging. I've only dropped the phone once, and it sure was reassurring to know that ODB was protecting it. My only qualm with the ODB is the inability to use the instant vibrate/silence button above the vol. controls. It is completely covered up, and you have to go to settings on the phone to accomplish this. Overall you won't find a better, more protective case and I know that you will be thoroughly pleased.

 

  Grease on the screen, 2009-11-05
I could not stand the grease marks on the screen so I returned the item.

 

  Just got it...and..., 2009-11-05
Okay, I ordered this with the hope I would be satisfied. Well, not really. I am not sure why these cost so much. The quality is okay, but its just plastic. Normally I would be okay with case, as its a bit more durable than most. The screen protector is nice.

My big problem is the phone WILL NOT stay in the belt clip. It just falls out everywhere. Luckly the case protected it from its first fall down the stairs. For this reason, I am sending it back. I can't have it falling off my hip. My dad has the same problem.

The other issue is make sure the connector for the bottom is small enough. I have a car adapter that will not plug in due to the case.

Overall for 30-50, I just don't see the excitement. I guess the choice is hard with all the other junk offered.
