As far as durability goes, this phone case is great. I had the same style for my last phone and it stood up to quite a few falls and drops without suffering any damage. Regarding the overall design, there are a couple improvements I would like to see. First, the iPhone 16 version had a soft padded back where the camouflage was pictured. The newer model for the iPhone 17 has a smooth sticker kind of a back where the camouflage is pictured. I preferred the padded version. I also am not a fan of the fact that the camera lenses are left completely exposed, especially now that the camera platform extends all the way across the phone on the 17. It would be nice to see a case that features some sort of protection for the cameras other that just a raised edge.
Otterbox case fits secure and protects the phone well. My phone has fallen multiple times and has taken no damage. The smooth clear case scratches easily and is a fingerprint magnet.
