is it the same as the defender series? and is the entire phone in a protective casing, like the otter boxes hard plastic casing?

I am not fimiliar with the defenser, but yes the phone does go in the hard case. I say eaiser the the itther box.

After looking at the defender series I would say yes it's very similar. And yes the phone is totally protected in hard plastic. It just feels cheap to me, but it will protect your phone.

Basically the same thing. The entire phone is covered and includes the built-in screen protector. I've had mine for about 2 weeks and it seems to be working really well. I have dropped my phone twice from 3 feet off the ground from the counter lol.

Not familiar with Defender series....yes, the entire phone is in the case and totally protected. The screen included. The company has a very easy to understand video to help you get the phone in the case. If I can do it so can you....I am 71!

Not sure what the defender series is but YES the entire phone is in protective casing. Very sturdy case hard plastic with screen protector also I love it

I have a defender for my iPhone 5 and an armorbox for my son's 5C. They are similar, not the same. As others have said it is a whole phone case with screen protection. The difference is the rubber exterior. The defender has a rubber sleeve that fits over the plastic case. The armorbox has rubber integrated over shock points, but not the whole phone. They both are strong and will protect against drops.

Yes the I-Blason case I purchased the entire I-phone 5c is encased in a full protective casing and I like this casing very much. This is the reason that I chose the model of casing from I-Blason. I just thought that I purchased the case with a belt clip to come with the case. I may have made a mistake on my part in the selection part of the purchase. Sorry for the confusion in the matter. Thank you for asking. J G

Mine appears to be a true otterbox case. Came in the Otterbox packaging and seems to be holding up so far. I've only had mine for about a month.

Disregard my last answer, I got this case confused with another case. Sorry, but this clear case is hard plastic. It's perfect. I dropped my phone plenty of times, the case would fall off some times but It would never break.

Yes its the built.in plastic one . Ita very nice. Just like the regular otterboxes

The entire case is a hard-ish plastic. It did NOT scratch the case phone when I put it on. I dropped it a couple of times, never on purpose mind you, but absolutely no damage to the phone or case. The first time it fell off my nightstand onto my hardwood floor, the second was a fumble getting out of the car, onto concrete. Neither drop was over three feet in height. WELL Worth the money, IMHO.

No it is not, but it is by far the best Otterbox-type case I've ever owned. The hard shell back makes it a lot easier to get in and out of your pocket, and it is a lot quicker putting the phone inside the case and getting it out.

Just like the others I'm not sure what your asking. The case isn't meant to protect the phone at all. It's only use is to charge the phone. The only cases that actually protect the phone would be the otterbox style cases.

Yes. It's a hard plastic. I've had this case since the day the iPhone 5s came out. I have dropped my phone several times and have had no problems. The only drawback is that the plastic on the back of the case is flush with the edges, so when you put your phone down, the plastic scratches. The scratches are pretty evident. You can still see that it's a glitter case, but it gets pretty scratched pretty easily. On the flip side, because I like the case so much, I'm actually considering ordering another one and "starting fresh" with no scratches.

Yes Ayanna, its the exact copy of the otter case. Tough as nails! I bought an extra for my wife. We both have the iphone4. I use mine at work and have dropped it many times on concrete floors. For me it was a good investment.

Defender is thicker w/ built in screen protector. Hard plastic on the inside silicon on the outer layer. And it comes with a belt clip / phone stand. Commuter has no built in screen protector silicon is on the inside hard plastic outer layer. And no clipI have cracked my screen (not severly) even w/ the commuter

Yup! It's a hard plastic case. The lenses screw into the case. I dropped my phone in the case several times and it was fine. It ended up cracking but my phone had no damage, just the case. The case was one of my favorites out of my whole collection.

I'm not sure, we bought both the Defender and the Commuter. The Defender has a plastic screen protector built in to it, the Commuter does not but I'm just as happy with it. I did buy a heavy duty canvas case/clip that works great as well. It has a metal clip to it so I know it wont break easily. We use plastic clips for our work cell phones and they break all the time. I did find that the Commuter series had more color choices whick is what I was looking for. The green makes it so easy to find when I'm home. I have dropped it a couple of times and you really cant tell. It held up nicely.

I assume you mean the phone not case... Nothing as you know is 100% protection for phones, but I can attest I've dropped my phone with the defender numerous times and it did not hurt it at all. I even dropped it in wet snow and it was fine. You should look on Otter Box website, they have test videos (at least they used to), In MY opinion the defender is the best protection. I love that it comes with a belt clip so I can walk, do housecleaning etc with it and I don't miss a call or text. They are expensive though. My son took his Otter Box off of his phone, dropped it and it cracked really bad, so he put his Otter Box back on to keep it together so to speak, so far, no new phone purchase has been needed.

If you're asking if the one I received is a real one, then yes, it is . OtterBox has different styles; this is the Commuter series. There is also a Defender series.

It's not like the otter box that has a hard plastic over the screen. It comes with a screen saver to stick on before putting the rest of the cover on.

It is no otter box. But it offers a substantial amount of protection. All corners are wrapped. It is hard to remove phone from case, so it will not come out if dropped. Has a lip in front to protect screen from scratches when set face down. I drop my phone a lot and have had no problems. I used to have an otter box which I feel offers the best protection, but was bulky. If you work construction or someplace your phone is taking a heavy beating I would not advise this case. But if you are more if an average user and want a wallet on your phone this is the best one around. It is no otter box. But it offers a substantial amount of protection. All corners are wrapped.

The OtterBox Defender Cases consist of two parts: 1) the harder snap together case that goes around the phone and then 2) the silicone covering that goes over and around the hard plastic case. It sounds like if you ended up with just a hard plastic case that you either didn't get a complete case or that you may have ordered the Otterbox Commuter or Armour case instead of a Defender case.
