Second purchase and I love it. It’s durable and not to bulky. I have a two year old that loves to grab my phone and as much as she grabs it, she drops it also. Knowing I have it secured with my case, makes me feel relieved.
Wouldn't have an iPhone without an Otter Box case.

This is my second Otter Box cover. First was on an iPhone 6 and now on my iPhone 8. Without a case, these iPhones are too slippery and difficult to handle safely. The Commuter Series is both tough to handle most all bumps and slight drops, plus it's attractive and will stay in your pocket without slipping out.
The case is a good case but can be a little slippery to handle due to the rigid case finish and tends to slide easily on smooth bench tops tables. Maybe look at integrating sections of the flexible grippier section through the rigid part of the case to correct this issue.
I would recommend this to a friend!

My recent purchase of the i8 prompted me to replace an OtterBox case that had previously served me well. With the Defender, I really never doubted that my i5S would survive a fall. Now, with the Commuter, that fear is more real. I must add, however, that the touch sensitivity on the latter OB product is better, to the extent that I can use a stylus again. It is a trade-off; one that I am happy to explore.
