Reviews around grip (4.67 of 5)

  • Only complaint about this case is that you don't have a good solid grip with it as the 'grey plastic' grooves are too tiny
  • so it slides in you pocket, rubbery on the sides for good grip , very protective
  • Good grip and the right amount of protection without being too bulky.
  • Good grip and the right amount of protection without being too bulky.

Reviews around series (4.66 of 5)

  • I was a little nervous getting it because I used to have a Defender series other box on my previous phone and this case was not as big.
  • So far so good not bulky as the defender series but has same protection and I have a glass screen protector and the case still fits in the phone.
  • No as bulky as the defender series, but also doesn't come with the hard plastic screen protector
  • The defender series is thicker, but has its own screen protector that is incorporated into the design.
  • The Commuter is slimmer and not as clunky as the Defender series, but appears to be just as protective with the two-piece style.

Reviews around price (4.62 of 5)

  • I love OtterBox, but their prices are WAY too steep, so this is perfect!I would recommend this brand to someone who might not be so careful with their phone
  • Perfect fit and delivered as promissed for a great price.
  • Awesome protection saved my phone great price n quick shipping
  • This was my first Otterbox case, as I don't think the ludicrous retail price ($35) on this brand is justified.

Reviews around corner (4.26 of 5)

  • The top right corner of the exterior plastic shell did not initially sit flush with the rubber
  • However, I just bought this one for my s5 and the top right corner of the plastic outer
  • I do have to replace it like once a year because when I drop it on the corner, the case always cracks - the corner near the headphone input
  • The top right corner by the headphone jack does not fit perfect, like my last case with Otterbox, but it does not appear to affect the protection of my phone
  • Minus one star just because the case does not fit properly on the top right corner

Reviews around look (3.77 of 5)

Reviews around otterbox (3.75 of 5)

  • I hate getting nickle and dimed by companies, so I will not be buying another Otterbox; There are a million other companies selling phone cases to choose from...
  • The old otterbox kept my phone in great shape and only started falling apart and chipping away from the plastic hard case at the bottom, which is why I decided to buy the new one
  • Very disappointing - it seems Otterbox has outgrown their reputation as a quality phone case maker
  • , it didnt, it broke and cracked, back to the bulkier safer otterbox.
  • I didn't use my new phone until I got my Otterbox for fear of dropping and ruining it.

Reviews around plastic (1.65 of 5)

  • Thin hard plastic piece below button broke, but still very usable.
  • The bottom of the hard plastic case surrounding the USB port cracked.
  • The screen protector is soft plastic that peels off the phone fairly easily
  • I like to hard plastic cover that the Commuter Series offers on the outer part of the case, instead of the rubber material on the Defender cases
  • It's not just the headphone flap feeling sticky or bulky, but the entire hard plastic casing will not sit flush with the soft plastic part

Reviews around bite (1.26 of 5)

  • They were a bit difficult to get on but they are great and the price was very good.
  • After about a year of owning this the padding has deteriorated a bit and stretched so it doesnt hold as tightly to the phone as it did in the beginning
  • This seems to work for a guy who can be a bit rougher on his phones.
  • It's simply falling apart a little bit at a time and thats after a year of good use.
  • It works but cosmetically a bit off

Reviews around design flaw (1.19 of 5)

  • Its very flimsy plastic, I would try to avoid this, seems like a design flaw.
  • Looks like a design flaw that has been fixed with the Symmetry series.
  • However, other cases do it better, so it looks to be a design flaw on the part of Otterbox
  • Not sure if it’s a design flaw or a bad run of these cases but they haven’t worked out
  • The defender case for the S5 has a design flaw above the charging port/below home button.

Reviews around screen cover (1.00 of 5)

  • Because the screen cover was obviously very cheap, I think a second one should have been included in the box because it's so easy to screw up installing the first one despite being very careful.
  • the only complaint I have is that the screen cover was very difficult to place.
  • My wife had a cheap-o imitation of this case, and it was always difficult to hear her over the phone, especially when she was on speaker phone
  • I had some difficulty applying the protective screen cover and ended up not using it.
  • Screen cover was too difficult to apply properly, and I had to throw it out as it got too much dust on the adhesive side when I was trying to apply it.
