OtterBox Impact Case for iPhone 3G, 3GS (Black)

Provides excellent protection 2010-07-27

Reviewer: C. Lombard

This case is great. I have had it for about five months now. The thing is, I have a one year old who is obsessed with gadgets (must get it from me), especially my phone. This got to the point where I had to put a pass code on my phone because he kept taking the phone, well he has yet to figure out the pass code (oh course or else I would be amazed, heck I was amazed when he figured out the slider part). Well once I did this, it aggravated him so then he took to tossing my phone across the room. I don't know if you have ever seen a one year old chuck something, but they can do it with a decent amount of strength...well thank god for this case or I would definitely be out a iphone by now. I really appreciate the fact that it is thicker on the ends and back because the does provide an extra layer of protection for the phone. No part of the case inhibits any use of the phone either which is nice. The material used has some elasticity so that you can take the phone out easily (but not too easily due to the design of the case itself which wraps around a good portion of the phone). Also, no joke here, but this case allowed the phone to be come a teether for when my son was teething. Call it weird or what have you but it worked for when I didn't have a teething ring.

Okay so my only grip here is that sometimes lint and other things accumulate on the case due to the type of material it is. Also I just wish otter box would make this exact same case but with more color and design options.

If this case can help the phone survive a one year old I think anything is possible with it.

Falls Off Belt Clip Constantly 2010-07-25

Reviewer: C. Russell

This case will protect your phone, which is good because any time anything touched my belt clip, or I bent over, or I got in or out of my car, the phone hit the pavement. The case is bulky, but I guess needs to be to make it so effective. I've given up on it.

Useless Against Impact - Okay to Protect Against Pocket Rash 2010-07-22

Reviewer: L. Gildart

The screen cover was stuck to the installation tab, which left residue and made the screen cover itself worthless. The cover is a stretchy silicon that offers little, if any, impact protection. The only thing it does is make the phone bulkier and a little bit less slippery. I was looking for something that would actually be protective, since my husband's favorite trick is to drop his pants on the floor with his iPhone still in the pocket. The pants offer more protection than this thing does.

Nice case, collects lint 2010-07-20

Like the case, easy on and off. Only bummer is that I keep my phone in my pocket and the case collects all the lint in the pocket and holds it in around the edge of the phone screen.
