I've used the case for 6 days only but so far it's great. Feels slimmer than the iPhone 6 case, fits welll and provides great protection as past cases.
This is my third otterbox to own. I know that when I use the otterbox defender that my phone is safe and secure. This case can take a beating and yet the phone stays safe. I have thrown it on asphalt, driven over one in my car, and very often just set my phone in my lap in the car so when I turn to get out I forget and it hits the ground. Best protection I have ever had on my phone and will continue to buy otterbox for all my devices that I want to protect.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Beautiful design

I brought the Arabesque case and I really like it. The design is eye catching and unique. I've purchased several otterbox cases in the past for my iphones and this is by far the best. It's a bit pricey so I'm hoping this case would last for awhile. I know after awhile, the rubber part of case becomes worn and stretched out. This causes for it not to sit perfectly on plastic part of the case. Pro: Doesn't attract dirt easily on the outside Beautiful design Textured grips on the side Fits phone perfectly Easy to clean Cons: Hard to take off the plastic shell The clear piece that covers the home key is weird. (Not sure if it's suppose to stay on or take it off) Bigger than other cases that are similar Somehow dirt manages to get inside the case Overall, it's a nice case to have to protect your phone.
I bought this case because I upgrade from iPhone 5s to iPhone 7... fingerprint technology still works and cutout through built in screen saver is now covered with a thin layer of plastic so dirt and debris cannot get between the phones screen and the screen saver. If you want to keep your phone in brand new condition, but also carry your phone everywhere then this is the case for you.

Mostly love...

I love the Defender cases, they really provide great protection for my phone. I bought the mint polka dot case because it is one of the few that are feminine looking. Just because I want a tough case doesn't mean I want it to look super manly. I am really disappointed at how dirty the light color is getting around the edges after just a few weeks of use. I am not sliding it in and out of jeans back pockets or using it in grimy environments, it just seems to pick up every little bit of dirt and I haven't been able to get it clean. I have not removed the outer case and tried scrubbing it clean with soap and water yet. In hindsight, as much as I love the happy color I don't think I'd buy it again. =(
I've always used OtterBox as they ARE the best cases! So I'm a little disappointed by one little area on the cover, but he plastic that covers the home button, is already bubbling and being stretched out on my 7 case, had the same problem with my 6s case, please fix this OtterBox!!!
