I didn't buy the extra phone insurance because I have an Otter Box. I always buy a new case when I get a new phone and my phones have never been damaged.
This must be my 5th or 6th Otterbox purchase over the years. Brand loyalty comes from quality! Ease of installation, durability, dependability.....Otterbox provides it all. As a former Army Jumpmaster, I am NOT gentle with my phones. Otterbox has never failed me.
I've dropped my phone 3 times, since I installed the case. The phone is undamaged. What can I say? the Otter case is bullet proof. The best item I've ever bought.
Wanted a good case for my new phone and saw this on the otter box website. Glad I got it, perfect fit and feel. Only downside is if you try to set it on a charger rather than plug it in phone won’t charge, but I can live with that.
I bought this case a month ago. Basically the rubber (silicone) should be where the plastic is and the plastic should be where the rubber (silicone) is. The case can slip out of your grasp fairly easily bcz the sides are plastic where you would normally grab your phone. If they would just switch the areas I mentioned above, this would be GREAT case bcz it is nice and slim and looks like it will do a great job protecting your phone.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hi there!
We're sorry to hear about your disappointment with your Commuter Series case! We appreciate your feedback about the grip provided by your case, and we'll be sure to let our design team know about your experience. In the meantime, if you're looking for a case with a bit more grip, we'd suggest checking out our Defender Series case here: https://www.otterbox.com/en-us/iphone-12-pro-iphone-12/defender-series-case/77-65401.html#start=1
The case is definitely one of the better-looking cases that are available . Only problem I noticed was access to the recharging port. A standard lightning cable is very difficult to insert due to the tightness at the top of the slot. So unless you rely strictly on wireless charging, some modification may be neccesary for effortless insertion of the cable.
