I have the OtterBox defender and love it. Also, why buy from Amazon? I got mine at walmart for like 39.88 with tax.

I had the Spigen for my S4 and absolutely loved it. But, for my S5 I went for this one. I like it a lot and it is quite rugged. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00IEFUC4C/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I have both the Otterbox Commuter and Spigen Tough Armor Case. I use the Otterbox if I'm going to be outdoors at the beach or in the sand dunes 4 wheeling. It's bulky but does a better job at protecting the phone from the elements. However, the Otterbox case is NOT waterproof so keep that in mind. I use the Spigen case when I'm going to be in the office or indoors most of the time. They are slimmer and fits better in my pocket.

Seeing as our phones are waterproof and dustproof (for the most part anyway), the case not having that distinction isn't very important.
That being said, I have that exact Spigen case, and the only complaint I have so far is there's no beltclip for it. If that's important, get a case with a holster, otherwise, the Spigen works just fine. The Otterbox adds too much bulk for me..

Whatever anybody does, do not get the OtterBox preserver case. HORRIBLE! The two pieces that "snap" together come apart VERY easily. Pathetic.

Otterbox commuter series case

Does anyone have any experience with this series Otterbox case? I don't really care for the size of the case on the iPhone, but i've only seen their defender series up close. This commuter series for our phones look nice, but until I can get some feedback I might wait on making the purchase.
Anyone?

I don't have any experience with Otterbox cases, but I can tell you that more than a few people around here were "patiently" awaiting their arrival for our phone.
I've been waiting for a solid case as well, but something that doesn't add too much bulk and weight to the phone like the Otterbox Defender does to the iPhone.
I saw that it was available yesterday and almost ordered it.
I had one on my incredible and really like how tough it was, however it does make the phone seem much larger, after my wife wanted the inc she wanted a pink or purple case so I sold the otterbox and gave her a Seido active purple case, wich does not seem as protective as the otterbox, but is also thinner.
I have a cheapy <$3 amazon rubber case on it, and I am very tired of it being hard to get in and out of my pocket and the case being so stretchy....I kind of like those "Breeze" mesh snap on cases on ebay for $13 because of how slim they are, I am torn on one of these or the otterbox....my only worry with the otterbox is how much bigger it will make the phone.

Zagg...case free...not one complaint...there are others like zagg that do the same job but zagg is very reliable and you can get a new case whenever you want for the shipping cost of like $4...

I had a Otterbox case for my Droid 1, and it was nice. Added a lot of bulk to the phone, but I was confident it was safe. Waiting to see what the Fascinate case will be like.
My buddie has the Otterbox case on his iphone 4. Its well made but very bulky. Too bulky imo. Personally I went with the kickstand case from verizon. There is already a discussion about on here so I wont go into the details. Slap on a screen protector of your choice and done.

Who Care's ? We want and demand t6he "Defender"
Just when you think somebodies got it right their wrong. I believe that "Otterbox" is the best, but come on people we all want the best protection and to have this we need the "Defender Series" anything less is selling yourself short.

Just got the case in the mail. I think it's great. It does make the phone a little bulky, but no too much IMHO. The main problem I have with it is that the hole for the speaker does not line up and actually covers up half of it. Not really worth returning it for, but it irks me slightly.
@CouchSpud, Any way you can post pictures? I've been looking at this case, but it looks like the pictures on Otterbox website are of a silicone only case similar to the Impact series for the Captivate. Then when I click the link to PDF specs, the spec sheet shows a Commuter case for the Captivate instead. Curious what they sent you?
If I understand the difference correctly, the Commuter case should be a polycarbonate cover over a silicone sleeve, while the Defender case is silicone over polycarbonate. Or does the defender case have silicone on both sides of the polycarbonate (3 pieces)? Not sure why the Defender would be better...

No problem. It's only a two piece case and it has a silicone interior and a polycarbonate exterior.
The first picture shows the silicone interior to the left and the hard exterior to it's right. The second picture shows how thick the case is compared to the phone by itself. The last picture shows how far off the hole for the speaker is.
o man thats a deal breaker for me... I really loved my otterbox on my Droid 1 it was amazing in terms of protection and I was going to order this too before I saw that pic of it covering half the speaker. Thats ridiculous... how could the mis-align the phone with the case.
I just received the case yesterday and It does add bulk to the case but feels very solid and will keep the fascinate very safe... i thought the covering of the speaker would be a problem but I don't notice and change in sound. Could be a little cheaper ~$40 with shipping.

Always look up coupon codes before you buy something online. There was a 10% off/free shipping coupon that drops it down to about $31.
Oh man, that sucks that they covered the speaker up.. I just ordered one of these which should be arriving any day now
I can't believe they didn't check this before running them.
On a side note, do you guys prefer Zagg invisible shield or wrapsol http://www.wrapsol.com/en_US/Home+Page/Products/iphone+_+mobile/samsung/Fascinate.aspx
I ordered a Zagg, but after watching a few youtube videos it seems people say the wrapsol has a smoother touch and less of the orange peel effect?? What do you guys think?

ive had a cheap little sleeve, and it really did nothing for protection. I know your against otterboxs, but I will still recommend a otterbox commuter. It DOES add some thickness to your phone, but it offers amazing protection. a sleeve really only protects from scratches, not big drops.

I went to the mall to test out the cheap cases and I could hear my phone hit the glass counter top when I gently turned it over. I went directly to Best Buy Mobile and overpaid for a Belkin... which is what I also bought for my original Incredible. I love the fit, protection, and coverage of the buttons. I clean my phones daily, so I like that the buttons aren't exposed.
Just my 2 cents.
Good luck with whatever you decide!
The inciPio silicrylic case. It's a slim 2 piece case at a reasonable price. It looks so GOOD to me. ( I have a white galaxy s 3 with the white and gray version of this case ) it's stylish, slim, and provides great protection

I have been really impressed with this case...not too bulky, nice grip on the side, the corners have extra reinforcement.
I have the Incipio Dual black/black on my white phone. Looks super sexy and really doesnt add much bulk while still providing great protection.

You can look at SGP's line of cases,
http://www.spigen.com/cell-phone/samsung/galaxy-s3.html
Samsung Galaxy S3 Case Neo Hybrid Color Series (TPU back cover and a polycarbonate frame)
Samsung Galaxy S3 Case Neo Hybrid Lumi Series (Same as Color Series but brighter colors)
Samsung Galaxy S3 Ultra Thin Air Series (Polycarbonate back)
Samsung Galaxy S3 Case Modello Series (TPU Case)
I've tried the Incipio case and currently use an Otterbox. The Incipio case was nice and the color complimented well, but felt too loose. The Otterbox fits tight, but is too tight for those who need to change battery frequently or whatever. I haven't completed decided which I like better.

Rugged Case for Galaxy Note 4

I have the Galaxy Note 4, I love outdoor activities and I bring the Galaxy Note 4 with me always, I have the Rugged Case for Galaxy Note 4, i-Blason Armorbox Dual Layer Hybrid Full-body Protective Case to protect my phone from bumps and other accidental drop when I do some activities, and it serves me well, I wonder if what are other alternatives for it, I would love to have one but reluctant to buy other brands, any recommendation based on your personal experience?
Here is the one that I bought
, i-Blason Armorbox Dual Layer Hybrid Full-body Protective Case
Can anyone suggest me another one?
Otterbox Defender...THE last case your Note4 will ever be in.

+1 for the Otterbox Defender, the commuter is also a perfect case for the Note 4.

I dunno where you got that info from. I've had the defender on mine since day one and no problems with it at all.
I don't know how you guys can put such an ugly bulky case on something so beautiful. Trust me, I'm all about protection, I've never cracked a phone before (*knock on wood*) but I feel like putting something like this iBlason case or the traditional OtterBox just covers up the true beauty of the phone. I usually go with a Spigen case (good protection, yet not as bulky). This time around I'm going for the Ringke Slim case with a wrist strap.

I understand where you're coming from and I too find the Ringke slim case exceptional in terms of looks and minor protection. But after using it for a whole month, I finally caved in and ordered an Otterbox Defender. I just don't want to be afraid of damaging my phone. Being able to use it with an extra peace of mind is worth sacrificing the appearance in my opinion. After all, you can always take it out of the case and it'll still be the beautiful, slim phone you purchased. But each to their own, I can only speak for myself.

Is Tech Armor for rugged case a good buy?
I have the UAG and the Otterbox Defender for mine. I used a UAG on my Note 2 for 2 years and was completely satisfied and feel that it is a solid case. However, I like the amount of protection the Otterbox Defender gives and I also like the way it adds some bulk to the phone. It seems easier to hold.
That being said, it does not fit well in my pocket and I've actually started using a belt clip (included with the case) for the first time. The belt clip also doubles as a stand for your phone when you are charging it.

Otterbox Cases

Has anyone seen the new Otterbox for the S6? they have them for preorder now and released on March 26th,
Undecided between the Symmetry and Commuter. too bad they don't seem to include a holster clip like the Defender.. the Symmetry for the S5 looked like the Defender, but i see now they changed them.. now the commuter also looks like a hybrid between the two
Which to choose? right now, looks like they're available in exclusive colors/pattern for each style.
Symmetry:
http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00TYTBHKU/
Defender:
http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00TYTBFGG/
Commuter:
http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00TYTDN98/
Wow some tough choices. they all look great. I have the Defender for my S5 so I might go with the Symmetry this time around.
I have an idea - let's buy those cases and ruin all the work those designers put into designing a beatiful phone. ast iteration everyone complained - plastic here, plastic there. now it is all glass and metal and looking really classy, so let's put one of those hideous cases on it

some people work/job isn't behind a desk where protection is needed..
There are a couple of foreign videos on YouTube of Otterbox being unboxed.

I'll gladly carry around and use my new glass-encased (front and back, remember?) $750 phone without a protective case, just as soon as you supply your name, address and a signed contract agreeing to reimburse me for the full cost of a replacement phone, should I accidentally drop it or whatever.
If you are not willing to supply the foregoing, then please omit the sarcasm.

Nor would I, except that you seem personally offended at the idea that anyone would use an Otterbox. I'm simply suggesting a way to make that a reality for you.

The soft case doesn't feel anything like my years old communter. Different material. It's less rigid and feels cheaper.
The hard case is highly prone to get greasy from hands.

Commuter
I have the commuter for my s6, it fits well, and in not too bulky for a case of this durability,
Any holster clips that support the commuter series? Thanks

Help me decide which case to use!

So I got 3 cases for the Note 9. Defender, Samsung rugged case, and Caseology Legion.
I'm torn between the Defender and Samsung case.
Which case do you think is better protection wise? Do you think the rugged case offers good drop protection even though it's thin? I do like the kickstand on it though.
Which would you choose? Defender or Samsung Rugged case?
I'm using the Samsung case. I need the kickstand, it's light and provided the 360 protection.
I'm currently rocking the Caseology Legion, and I'm loving it. I usually switch back and forth Spigen/Caseology when it comes to cases because they've provided enough protection to my phones. Legion provides plenty of protection if you don't want a bulky rugged case, does add a bit of bulk but not the kind you'd get from an Otter defender imo (which I've tried). So out of those 3 I'd definitely stick with the Legion, the rugged Samsung is too bulky and ugly imo.
samsung rugged case. it's not really that thin. it is very well designed. pretty light, too. you won't find a better fitting rugged case for this phone. kickstand is so useful.

Yep! I usually prefer really thin cases but I feel that this case is the best balance between style, size and protection. May not meet OtterBox standards but also doesn't make your phone a brick
Spigen Tough armor has always been my go to case. Been using them ever since the Nexus 6p. I love my blue case with kickstand to go with my copper color exynos note.
