Seems that there's no review for the Defender Series yet. I'm just posting the mini review I made for those who are contemplating to get one...

Glad to hear from a fellow defender user! It is indeed the best case I've used so far

this case looks, very nice.
Did it makes the DHD almost bigger than normal ?

It definitely does but it feels more natural to hold and fits my hand better...

but the problem is, it attracts too much of dusts with it.

I'd have to agree but I usually just get rid of it with a piece of tape when I have no choice but to put it down on a dusty surface or just put it in its holster. I'd take removable dust over permanent scratches/dents

yes it is, in my case, i'll just make my hands wet and wipe them off. still waiting life proof to actually release a Proof case for us.

Mine doesnt really attract dust anymore, i think its due to the natural oil that gets left behind from when i touch it

Lol, that's actually true for me. Hand sweat turns out to be the natural cleaning agent for the rubber layer :-D

the rubber layer makes it hard to get in and out of the pocket when not using the clip

I take off the large plastic layer when I can't have it on my belt... stupid school. >.< When I am not in school, then I typically fully mount her up and throw both cases on. Then it's real protected and right there very accesible on your belt... if you're really have troubling with putting your phone with the base layer on then I have a simple solution... change pants. lol....

Great case. I have had mine for almost a year and when I did have a problem with the power button coming loose they sent me a replacement pretty quickly. I have an extra now. (I super glued it)
I give it a 9/10.
What color is yours?

I had the SG case and traded for an Otter defender. I still have the SG it's black if anyone is interested.

Lol I think he's saying that they don't allow it to be on your belt or hanging anywhere out by your waistline. It can be mistaken for a weapon.

just bought this phone used, but the bezel is so damaged that it's hard for me to even look at the phone.
i wonder if there's an easy way of replacing the bezel? im not sure i want to transplant the entire screen on the kit i bought, since it seems like the glass breaks easily.
Buy a case, most of the decent cases cover up the besel

You might be able to find some rear housing replacement for the phone but that all depends on if you want to dissect the phone as well.

Alternative like previously mentioned is get a case for it but thats entirely your choice.
Bezel is attached to the digitizer

I read the 1st post and thought I had posted it for a second. Exact same thing happened to me. I was not going to keep it but a case will hide it and it's a $400 phone new. My wife isn't going to let me spend that much on a phone so I decided to keep it.
Glad I did so far.

I have a bezel and assembly without the glass sitting on a shelf in my office. Had a shattered screen and the replacement is a one-piece assembly as was mentioned. I removed the glass and LCD and have a good bezel with the 'touchpad' buttons still in place. Could let it go....if you can use it. Make me an offer.:angel: PM me if you're interested and I'll send a picture.
so yeah what do you guys do to get rid of the fingerprints on the back of the phone? i need suggestions as it keeps bugging me and my case hasn't come yet
thanks

just plaing 3/4 water and 1/4 vinegar solution.
Leave the fingerprints, there will always be new fingerprints... Or tape your fingers.

lol just plain water, damp microfiber cloth would do the trick then.
buy a dbrand or skinomi skin for it when they become available.
Which color phone do you have OP?
I know this may sound a little lame but I love the look of the phone, so I use it with no case. But the fingerprints are a bit much. Does anyone use anything like a cleaner, hand sanitizer, etc.?

One of the main reasons I bought mine as well is the looks.
You might want to check out the cases made by Spigen. Particularly the Slim Armor cases. They follow the looks of the phone and come in the same colors as the phone.

FYI no fingerprints here...

Chances are in this day and age that stainless steel fridge isnt really stainless steel at all. ?

I have the spigen case and the screen protector. They work pretty well. I don't see any pri ts on tbe case. The screen will always have a smudge or two, but it's not that bad, way better than som other phone screen protectors I had.

Maybe because your hand is sweaty or oily that's why.
