3rd phone with an otter box. VERY VERY hard person on devices. Drop at least once per week. NEVER EVER broken the phone. Used to break screens, that was before I discovered OB. One negative, they didn't have white in the S8, which is what I wanted. But I traded functionality for eye catching purple.
Love the case. Looked at several other cheaper alternatives for their "aesthetics" and price but at the end of the day, all my prior phones have been protected by Otterboxes and they have all maintained great condition. I expect this case to provide the same like the others before.
This case has a slim profile and you will notice very little real estate added to your slim phone. Also the case buttons for volume/power/bixby are very easy to use and responsive without needed excessive pressure.
The hard composite back has a slightly slippery surface area. While this doesn't post a problem at all when you are handling the phone, it can slide on a table or off a wireless charger in your car easily because of the lack of friction. Not a big deal amd there are easy fixes for this.
This is my 3rd Otterbox and I love it! The Commuter series gives you the durability of the Defender but the Sleekness to slide in and out of your pocket.
