So I have wanted one of these for a while now and went on and read a LOT of the reviews here on Amazon. To be honest some of the poor reviews had me a little worried! But I am leaving this review to ASSURE you that nearly ALL of the negative reviews were definitely coming from operator errors (if you get my drift) and people who didnt have ANY idea what they were buying...

Clearly the Defender series is going to be a little beefy. Which I would HOPE is why your looking at this sort of case! For a big-bad iphone defending case! and that is JUST what you get! So the reviews on size I feel are unfair, based on the fact that you should have known its a sturdier case. (I find this NO problem for the protection it provides. Being a girl, I couldnt fit an iphone in my pants pocket to begin with, so its not an issue...And I would like to stress its not THAT big.

Some people (a good number) have complained about a hole on the top being for the headphones being on the wrong side...This is NOT the case people! You must open the flap to use your headphones...The hole is for the MICROPHONE! So do not fret. There is NO issue there...just people simply misunderstanding the product.

I read multiple reviews where people complained about being able to charge or undo the bottom flap, etc. Ok. It is silicone people. soft, flexible silicone...So NO you DONT need to completely take apart the cover to charge your phone. You simply lift that flap and plug in your phone. There is NO issue with it closing, because its not supposed to be closed OR completely open while charging...Again, silicone does not hinge... In fact, I am charging my right now with zero issue. All the flaps are really easy to open and close and I see no issue with them being flimsy, or too firm either.

I saw one or two people say they thought it decreased the sensitivity of the screen. I have not had that problem. As long as you get the right model and it fits well there is no reason for it to have any effect, it is just a regular old screen guard just like any other you'd buy on the market and shouldnt (and wont) effect the use of your screen. The people who complained that it messed up the lightness of the screen may have had it set to auto, and I know mine sometimes in certain light decides to stick with a darker back light setting than I would prefer. So once again, I am sure this is something that one could adjust in the settings of your phone, and not be a problem with the case.

So in conclusion, this is an AWESOME product. If you are looking for a really tough case, that looks great and you UNDERSTAND that a thin, one sided, snap on case will not be very tough...then this is for you! Please note that a LOT of the negative reviews come from people's misuse or misunderstanding of the product. NOT the product itself. I cant say how happy I am with this product and I am SO glad I went ahead regardless of those negative reviews.

I like to buy the best products out there, which normally means I buy the more expensive items. But come on, this is a piece of plastic to protect my iPhone 4 screen. I have only bought a screen protector once before, for my toddler's iTouch, and had bubbles all over the screen. So I thought these screen protectors were all garbage. But after getting a big scare by accidentally putting my iphone in my pocket with my car keys, and getting a very light scratch on my screen, I thought I'd give these screen protectors another try.

And again, I thought I'd try some of the cheapest at Amazon, because, well, it's just a piece of plastic. If I was wrong, I was only out a buck or so, and could then go and buy the expensive screen protectors. But this time, I researched around and read some blogs, and found out dust is the culprit for bubbles. Taking that advice, I followed the directions and was able to put the screen protectors on 2 iPhones bubble-free! Here's what I did:

1. I chose my desk as the place to do the application. I wiped it down with an all-purpose cleaner, then wiped it down with a damp wash-cloth. I also did this during the day, with bright sunlight coming into the room. Do not try this at night, I don't think it shows all the dust hitting the screen.
2. Turn off your iPhone. You want to make sure the screen stays black, it's much easier seeing dust.
3. I then used another damp wash-cloth (if you squeeze it and water comes out, it's too wet. It needs to be barely damp), and wiped down my iPhone, front and back.
4. Then I got the little piece of cloth that shipped with the screen protectors and wiped the screen down until it was as clean as I could get it.
5. The iPhone was laid down on the damp cloth so it wouldn't rock and slide as i was applying the screen protector.
6. Peel off "Side 1", and start by lining up the camera hole and the ear hole. Then slowly lay down the rest of the protector on the screen, making sure no bubbles form as you go. You will get some, but if you do it right, they will only be near the edges.
7. Once it's laid down, then take a fingernail and apply gentle pressure from the center of the screen towards the edge. Basically driving the bubble out from underneath the screen protector.
8. The last step, peel off "Side 2".
9. Done!

Should only take about 5-10 mins. But it's so worth it. I bought the matte version of these and it's a nice improvement.

So my initial assessment that screen protectors are garbage is wrong, my technique at applying the screen protectors was garbage. A little bit of homework on the Internet, dust control, and I got a quality result. I highly recommend these screen protectors from this seller. I'd buy them again!

Protecting a $200 phone is quite a formidable task and a lot of cell phone case companies do not seem to understand protection. They strive for style, design, and aesthetics. To me, this is all nonsense. Otterbox understands the principle of protection better than any other company making these types of products. Fuction is what I am looking for and and this company produces fuctioning cell phone cases. These 4S generation cases share an improved design, mainly with the camera area. I think people were complaining about shadowed pictures and video due to the tight camera cut out. They widened it to ensure the new 8MP camera with not be hindered by a design flaw.

First, the defender technically provides more protection than the commuter and also comes with a handy holster with a clip. However, the defender is bulky and the port covers do not stay as well as the model for the 3GS. Also, I am not a fan of the defender because of the screen protector it comes with. Eventually, particles of dust or grit will work their way into your case and be sandwiched between the screen and the hard plastic film. Then, friction from your finger will scratch the screen up pretty bad (this happened to me). To make matters worse, I put a Zagg shield on it and it basically fused with the screen protector on the defender. I needed to pry the phone off the case and, while doing so, lifted the glass of the phone, creating permanant air pockets in my screen. Not a good scenario at all. The anti-glar films sold at the apple store, however, work fine because they have a smoother, less sticky surface. I would not reccomend this case at all, though, without these screen protectors because without a screen protector, air bubbles will form and distort your view and scratches on the screen will occur. But, if you work construction or another potentially hazardous job, this case with the anti-glare screen protectors may be a better choice then the Commuter series of cases.

The Commuter, on the other hand, offers a balance between versitility and protection. With this case, I can use my Zagg shield and is not peeled up by the case like many do. Also, I love the soft shell on the inside and the hard shell outside. The soft inner allows the port and button covers to be attached to the case and function propperly. This also helps absorb shock. The hard shell allows the phone to slide in and out of pockets very easily, even out of tighter jeans. In addition, it has a much thinner profile than the defender but still provides adequate protection. The ports are still protected from water and it can take a tumble. I've dropped my 4S about 4 times with this case on it, on hard surfaces from pretty significant hieghts (5 feet or so on some) and the case barely even shows it let alon the phone wrapped up inside. Also, by flipping the phone face down, the exposed inner rubber case prevents it from slipping if you needed it to stay put, for instance, in a car. For the average person, the commuter is the superior choice.

However, both cases with the lighter colored silicon soft shells, like white and grey, get dirty easily. They even get stained from dye in jeans. Not a huge deal to me, but might be to some. Overall, these are the two best cases on the market for the iPhone and believe me, I have researched and read up on them all. You must simply decide what your needs are for a case and make your decision.

First of all, if you want to protect your iPhone, this is a terrific case. If you want sleek and flashy, keep looking. Don't get me wrong, I like the way the phone looks with the Otterbox on it but there just are not any sequins or monograms.

This is really two cases in one, or, a case with a rubberized cover. When you open the package, you will notice a plastic "clam shell" case that you snap over the phone. The second part of the case is the rubberized cover which wraps around the phone. The negative BUT NECESSARY results about this case is that it will double the thickness of the phone and make it heavier. This case includes a shield that protects the screen so no need to buy those expensive screen protectors. The only exposed area of the phone are the holes for the speakers, microphones, and camera lens.

When I first put the case together, I thought the same as the previous reviewer that the earphone jack hole was in the wrong place. That assumption is incorrect. The hole on the top of the phone is for the secondary, noise-cancelling, built in microphone. The earphone jack is intended to be covered when not in use in order to keep dirt from getting into the hole for the jack. Just like the power cord and mute switch, the flap has to be opened in order to plug the earphones in. Speaking of flaps, they are a necessary evil when it comes to total protection. Putting them back in place requires a bit of patience but it is not a big deal.

All of the functions of this case are protected. Each button, the volume, power, and control button are under the cover. The screen is also under a protective rubber shield. I was concerned that the interface would be hindered but everything works well even with the added layer between my hand and the screen/buttons. The buttons are quite responsive and the screen taps, scrolls, etc, seem to work just as well as they did before I installed the case.

A huge bonus about this case is how my telephone reception IMPROVED. Getting my first iPhone was becoming a very frustrating experience due to a very high amount of dropped calls. For some reason, getting that barrier between my hand and the phone itself has dramatically improved my reception resulting in virtually no dropped calls. I definitely like the feel of my phone much better with the case than I did with no protection at all.

Lastly, you may be surprised to find that this case may change the appearance of the color of your phone. My phone is black but the plastic case is white. From the front and side views, you would think my phone is white. It is not until you look at the back side of the phone that the black shows through the hole for the apple logo.

The only thing I do not use or particularly care for is the holster that comes with the phone. I am using a leather pouch and prefer it instead of the snappy, hard holster. (Just a preference, not a knock) I recommend you look at the Otterbox at a retail store like AT&T before you buy it sight unseen from Amazon. The store I viewed them at was selling them for $50 and I purchased mine on Amazon for $32.60.

Good luck!

I my iPhone 5 to activate through today (career source) is still is the Otterbox Defender case placed it first nature's I got. Had my 3gs Defender and it protects my phone all these years. Did not have a IPhone 4 / 4S is so I can't compare it. So far quick impressions:

Protection - is equivalent protection wise 5 Defender 3 gs iPhone. Complete coverage of the industrial-grade protection. Same concept and overall design silicone, slightly thicker and stronger, I feel 5,. Smooth finish is matte finish on 3gs should help compared to silicone and hopefully avoid the dust and lint-cleaning it's only downside is required frequently 3gs if it was.

Buttons and ports - is covered with silicone-like power and volume button button itself. Press one of the buttons with the silicone, no problem. You can have silicone plugs. ( pushes to get the plug located behind the open tip - plug, insert the nail top silicone parts are more expensive, to pull it. Hopefully, this makes sense. Use the headphone plug is small, but it is open it can be to get some time). When you open the charging port plug keeps snapping case held, and open one of the hand which means back and insert the charger. Remain open as needed with insignificant problem and I hope that this piece a bit loose. Apple logo opening is covered with transparent plastic film back. And has left open the front camera / loudspeaker, camera / flash back, and at the bottom of the speaker, is the only exposed part of the mobile phone.

Screen coverage - it without screen into a transparent plastic film, case touch screen experience as well as film and is good. Watermark transparency, and air and water itself, creates a small layer between the screens you create on the screen. Had 3gs this and similar problems. (TIP-I have several forums was reading we recommend to apply the baby powder before installing this case my 3gs, I did not find personally, lasting solutions. Was the best solution to apply before installing the case screen's anti-glare film, cell phones. I will still come, waiting for my anti glare film it 5 and install spare me to see if the problem was solved only had 3 gs and did it ).

Holster - silicone remains, as two plastic tabs on the side. Prevent loosening over time or stretch, this can really keep in the form of silicone. These tabs also acts as a locking mechanism for Holster. If you are, or of minor improvement Otterbox Holster face can be inserted. Looking at just the face allowed almost like the Holster (3gs only-friendly face on and go for a run when junk was found). This Holster can be attached belt vertically or horizontally it is so completely has swivel belt clip. Nice is firm and no case falling chances, fit-out. Holster much better and than the 3gs version is designed ergonomically. Easy access of the phone with this design.

I see the improvement / action hoping that I would, here some more.

-Opening of the front and back cameras - two openings is huge! Front camera / speaker / light sensor one opening is a big opening. 3Gs version (only 3gs no speakers in front of the camera ) and I opened case much better overall coverage provided from 4 seconds I've seen, was accurate. Approximately 30-40% of it is must Flash with camera rear apertures than also increase is. It's great to have openings from both locations for better protection of the more accurate would have been.

-Headphone jack plug-ins-this has probably itself and the placement of the headphone jack to do the opening of the case is really, small is not very smooth and open the Silicon plugs. For the 3gs, went around the silicone plug headphone jack went open breeze on the back. They are the same 5 for the design may be used. In the current design takes time open the headphone plug. It easier just to get used to something, or silicone-fold over time loosening can take is entirely possible.

IPhone 5 ultra sleek and light, smooth looking for a device. It puts the defenders of bulky ( doubles over thick ) will be. Provide a super-protection can't live without it, so now this is a pro. It takes away your shortcomings is the aesthetic beauty of the iPhone is.

Was the only color that can take advantage of this when I bought black. Now more choices as it has. Glacier ( just personal preference ) wish you were waiting for!

Besides these minor issues I generally use it and very happy in this case over the years to come, hope, my 3gs Defender and same. Yes, it is a bit expensive, it's also peace of mind.

Update 12 / 10 / 12

Seem to watermark problem will help in this regard forever anything permanent, like in this case. Anti-glare film little bridge the gaps, but only for several days. Screen for a couple of days after right back creates in the watermark issues picking up, again using the screen make difficult. Sent it back and get another case. Yes, that's why was willing, I'll settle this case at once, but can't give up features and would like to protect my iPhone.

IPhone 5 ultra sleek and light, smooth looking for a device. It puts the defenders of bulky ( doubles over thick ) will be. Provide a super-protection can't live without it, so now this is a pro. It takes away your shortcomings is the aesthetic beauty of the iPhone is.

Was the only color that can take advantage of this when I bought black. Now more choices as it has. Glacier ( just personal preference ) wish you were waiting for!

Besides these minor issues I generally use it and very happy in this case over the years to come, hope, my 3gs Defender and same. Yes, it is a bit expensive, it's also peace of mind.

Update 12 / 10 / 12

Seem to watermark problem will help in this regard forever anything permanent, like in this case. Anti-glare film little bridge the gaps, but only for several days. Screen for a couple of days after right back creates in the watermark issues picking up, again using the screen make difficult. Sent it back and get another case. Yes, that's why was willing, I'll settle this case at once, but can't give up features and would like to protect my iPhone.

Seem to understand a highly formidable task to protect the $ 200 phones, not many carriers case protection. They do the style, design and aesthetics. For me, this is all nonsense. OtterBox understands the principle better than other companies protection of these kinds of products. Is the Fuction generates appears in this company and are looking for a cell phone case. These 4 s an improved generation cases, share the design and areas focusing on camera. I said complaints about shadow people photos and videos according to cut tight camera. They expanded or new 8 megapixel camera is a interfere with design flaws.

First of all, DF provides a technically more commuters than more protection, also comes with a convenient Holster clip. However, df is bulky, does not stay in the port cover as well as 3gs models. Also comes with screen protector fan I am not it because Defender,. Eventually their way is working your case particles of dust or sand, sandwiched between the screen and the hard plastic films. Is friction (this happened to me) pretty bad screen your fingers from scratch then. To make matters worse, my Zagg shield put it, basically, it has been combined with Defender screen protector. Lifted the screen I needed to create a mobile glass permanent air pockets, to pry cell phone case off to. Not at all good scenarios. But in the Apple store, anti glar movies sell so smoothly, they have the sticky side of the following good will. Without these screen protector, screen protector without the bubbles forming and distort the wounds to view and screen for everything that you want. However, construction or another danger work on the task and in this case a good choice after the anti-glare screen protector, commuter series case may.

On the other hand, commuters offers balance protection and versitility. My Zagg shield available in this case, many do not peeled-up case. Also, love inside, soft shell and hard shell outside. Cover the attaching behavior of soft and case and function button. It also absorb shock to help. Hard shell and out of Pocket slide you can call very easily even from tight jeans. It is much more thin, than Defender, provides a profile will still provide adequate protection. Ports are still protected from the water, it can take a fall. I have in this case is very important, ( 5 feet or so some ) from case is now shows the phone barely wrapped in let it alon, and slowing my 4S 4 times on a hard surface. Also, for example, prevents inner rubber exposed face of a phone from slipping if you need still to car Flip case. For the average person's commute is a great choice.

However, like grey and white silicone soft shell cases lightly colored and easy to get dirty. They also get tomato stain from jeans dyes. The huge my addresses, that to some. Globally, the market for the best of these two cases, iPhone, believe me, research and read all of them. Just in case for your needs, and the decision.

I received I was compared to 3 cables and cable my original iPhone 4. Any method other than between my genuine Apple iphone 4 and 3 cable has a slightly along the different cable lengths of rubber / plastic material can not tell the difference between the different feel. Cable connector on the other reviewers ' problems a little wider or larger, appearance is the same as the appearance and size of the mine photograph was published in the Amazon.

And pleased with this purchase and then buy some more.

4/20/2011
=======================
I didn't realize ordered ( ordered a great initial experience 5-star cell phone from an Amazon merchant ) and after 3 or more cables and had changed to "default" merchant Importer520. Just these fast and received 3 cable genuine Apple cables they all had surface stains and slight irregularities in the workup is similar to catch a glimpse. Also, they are suspicious and looking for "by Apple California Assembly stamp design length in China" had.

From mobile phone 5 stars very good quality I can differentiate from real Apple cable cable was from Importer520 it is inferior. Supple texture of the length of the cable, is however, good. It and the coiled, as well as maintaining a bent-shaped straight stretches.

But you can get a refund of policy specified in the State will not refund shipping costs please refer to return contact Importer520 and ordered me when it was almost all of the purchase price.

6/16/2011
======================
Buy another "OEM" cable, is the worst cable bundles and Item44Less from this time. Than the length of the cable and flexible rubber-like material real Apple cable or mobile phone 5 stars and Importer520 like are made from hard plastic does not bend.

9/2/2011
==========================
So a through C and J accessories Amazon order fulfillment, actually purchased this time for another "OEM" cable from Amazon Prime eligibility. This cable is obviously real 0.5 mm edge width and length greater than about the iPhone have been not connected. Other Amazon merchant cable design was identical, but differed in quality. This cable is different in its design and its wide and thick in fact connector end. Also the length of the cable is more than an authentic Apple cables, flexible rubber, plastics. This is almost the same as the Item44Less is bad and I think.

9/19/2011
===========================
Buy the cable from the Niceeshop and looks real supple except not as a real Apple cable, cable length material. Cable length materials as strong as Item44Less cable Importer520 cable than over fixed (hold bend).

Overview of ( ranked in order of similarity to real Apple cable )
================================================================
1. Star cable is best and five mobile me indistinguishable from genuine Apple iPhone cable.
2. Importer520 is acceptable, but less stars in five cells and some cosmetic blemishes is. Length of the cable is made of high quality material.
3. Niceeshop is acceptable, but cable length is flexible as stars or Importer520 5 cell phone isn't.
4. Eligible for Amazon Prime C and J accessories that as real one has a cheap cable length materials and larger iPhone connector end.
5. Item44Less I do not bend while transporting the formation just around the corner from the position of the coil rigid plastic cable material that I would avoid. Cable length materials is low quality (plastic like above four competitors than most).

I compared the cable I received with my original iPhone 4 and 3 cables. I cannot tell any differences other than a slightly different feel of the rubber/plastic material along the cable length, which by the way also differs between my genuine Apple iphone 4 and 3 cables. Another reviewer posted pictures on Amazon in which the cable in question appeared to have a slightly wider or larger connectors, but mine are identical in size, and appearance.

I am very happy with this purchase and will purchase several more.

ADDENDUM April 20, 2011
=======================
After my initial great experience with the cable (that I ordered from Amazon's merchant Cellular 5 Star), I ordered 3 more cables, and did not realize that the "default" merchant had changed to Importer520. I just received these 3 cables and they look similar to genuine Apple cables at quick glance, but on closer inspection, they all had surface blemishes and slight irregularities. They also had a suspicious looking "Designed by Apple in California Assembled in China" stamped on the cable length.

The cable from Cellular 5 Star was of very good quality that I could NOT distinguish from genuine Apple cables, but the ones from Importer520 are slightly inferior. The feel of the cable length material is good though, in that it is supple. It will coil and uncoil without keeping the bent shape.

I have contacted Importer520 to see if I can get a refund, but their stated return policy states that they will not refund shipping costs, which when I ordered was almost all the purchase price.

ADDENDUM June 16, 2011
======================
I purchased another "OEM" cable, this time from Item44Less and this cable is the worst of the bunch. The length of the cable is made out of a rigid plastic that does not bend like the more supple rubber-like material of the genuine Apple cables or even from Cellular 5 Star or Importer520.

ADDENDUM September 2, 2011
==========================
I purchased another "OEM" cable, this time from C and J Accessories, which actually qualifies for Amazon Prime since their order fulfillment is through Amazon. This cable is clearly not authentic with the end that connects to the iPhone being larger by about 0.5 mm width and length. The other Amazon merchants cables were identical to design, but differed in quality. This cable actually differs in its design with its wider and thicker connector end. The length of the cable is also more plastic than a flexible rubber, compared to authentic Apple cables. I would say this is almost as bad as Item44Less.

ADDENDUM September 19, 2011
===========================
I purchased a cable from Niceeshop and it looks genuine except that the cable length material is not as supple as the genuine Apple cables. The cable length material is not as rigid as the Item44Less cable, but more inflexible (retaining bends) than the Importer520 cables.

SUMMARY (Ranked in order of similarity to an authentic Apple cable)
================================================================
1. Cellular 5 Star cables are the best and indistinguishable from my genuine Apple iPhone cables.
2. Importer520 is acceptable, but slightly inferior to Cellular 5 Star with some cosmetic blemishes. The cable length is made out of a high quality material.
3. Niceeshop is acceptable, but the cable length is not as supple as the Cellular 5 Star or Importer520.
4. C and J Accessories, although it qualifies for Amazon Prime, has its iPhone connector end as larger than the authentic one with a cheaper cable length material.
5. I would avoid Item44Less because of the rigid plastic cable material that does not bend and keeps the angular bent formation from its coiled position during shipping. The cable length material is the lowest quality (i.e. most plastic like) compared to the above four competitors.
