This is the 2nd otter box I have purchased. I have a habit of dropping my phone, so I got one for my old phone and one for my new phone. None better for protecting my phone!
This is my 4th Defender case; my first for the iPhone7. This time I purchased the Aqua Mint cover. My first observation is that the light color does show dirt more readily than the dark color, no surprise here. My second observation is that the "rubber" hardness is slightly greater (harder) than my Defender covers of the past. While this does not compromise the protection it offers, it makes the phone a bit more slippery than the past...be it slipping from the hand, or slipping off the dash or console of a moving vehicle.
I really liked the Otterbox for my iPhone 7. I had one for my iPhone 5 and it has only just started to fall apart almost 4 years of tough duty (the charger end). I was happy with the colour choices and very impressed with the speed of delivery basically 1.5 days
I got this case a few weeks ago and for the most part I love it. My only complaint would be that it's too easy to get dust underneath the screen cover. I have to constantly take the case off and clean it. But for the most part it's an awesome case.
I bought the slip cover because the first one stretched out only within a few months. This cover system was very expensive and wished it worked the first time.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
