Which otterbox case are you referring to? And what do you want out of a case? Do you care abouy bulkiness? Water proof? Drop proof? Or just want minimal protection (more for looks, rather then protection)?

Lifeproof nuud, best case ever.

Sucks and hates are two different words but ok. And I guarantee the case I have is different than the defender. My last phone was in a defender case when it was damaged. This case was just released not to long ago and maybe the OP didn't know they have a tougher case that's also waterproof. Just a thought though, could be wrong.

no need for water case i think i will look around for a cool case that has everything
The defender ends up peeling and the outer rubber part barely stays attached to the hard plastic. I've had THREE of the them, I hardly even use my phone and my pockets are never tight and the case never snags. I checked out the Armor by Otterbox today it feels much nicer but it's very expensive and is literally a brick.
The latest outer cases seem stiffer and less rubbery. Have had Ø problems with these...
Otherwise they'll just keep replacing them until you're happy.
Great CS....
Just got back from the beach with my otterbox armor series. No sand or water on my phone. Stayed in my pocket in and out of the water. I love this case.

I use TPU cases. They're like silicone cases, but they're a little more substantial and do a good job absorbing minor impacts. Plus, they're cheap and come in a variety of styles.
If your using a standard battery UAG is my favorite... rocks.

I had one. Worst case I've ever had. Even at my discounted price of $60 on release day. Way to bulky when a life proof is just as good and not only cheaper but slimmer. Also part of the speaker cover that makes it water proof the screen layer fell off and seemed to be held on with cheap glue or silicon. In 5 years I've never needed a water proof case bit I also take care of my phones. I'd go with a ballistic shell gel. Very nice case and still fairly slim

What in the hell was Samsung thinking when they made this thing so damn shiny and smooth? I drop it on a daily basis.
I tried a silicone case from eBay, the fit was GREAT but the things like a dang lint roller. EVERYTHING sticks to it. I pick up my phone and it's covered with hair and grit, dirt, sand, you name it.
I actually have to wash my silicone case off. I actually got sick of how much stuff it picks up, I stopped using it.
I ordered a Case-Mate case last week, hoping that works out better. Hopefully it shows up tomorrow before I just return it for an iPhone 4S, ugh, it's frustrating the hell out of me.
blame the phone on your parkinson's disease. makes sense.
Order a TPU case. Nothing is better. They have them on Amazon. Matte black looks amazing with this phone. The owner of TPU posts on XDA and is always listening to our feedback.
Hmm... haven't dropped the phone yet.
Try TPU next time, its amazing.
Haven't dropped mine yet. Maybe you should try sticky tape on your hands
How does a TPU case differ from a Silicone case as far as stuff sticking to it? I've never really had much luck with these rubber cases from that stand point. Stuff always sticks to them like crazy.
What is a TPU case made from? I guess if the Case-Mate doesn't work out, I can try that next.
That said, I think I actually looked at the TPU cases when first looking for a case. TPU Cases was sold out every time I looked so I ended up ordering this silicone rubber piece of crap I got from eBay.

Nothing sticks to it and it looks and fits nicely to the phone with not much thickness added
It's made of TPU. It's some longer scientific name.

Could be different for someone else, but I've had mine for 2 weeks and I have noticed some extra scuff marks. Since the upper rim of the case where the phone enters is made of a slightly harder TPU material, constantly removing the phone from the case will cause this to happen. I do this to clean out any dust particles that may get through. If it wasn't for the case looking so good on the phone, I probably would've switched it out for that reason.
get a TPU case, not going to prevent drops but just trust sammy's build quality. Mine has already taken some spills and already came out ahead
How do you drop your phone so often that you blame the phone's design?
I did accidentally throw my phone, but that's because I forgot it was in my hand, lol.
Go with the TPU case. I picked up the matte black one off of amazon myself as a temp solution until I splurged on a casemate or something more "heavy duty" and otterbox like.
I actually decided to just rock the TPU case.. it's niiiiice.
I also have a vid review up on amazon for it as well.

I was just about to post it. Thanks much!
Hey guys, my S3 should be here by the end of the week, woooooooooo. But I need some help deciding on a case and was wondering if people who have tried different cases or used just one and can reccomend it could chime in. Basically I want something that will protect the phone, specifically something with a lip so when screen down the screen isn't touching the surface it's on, and basic protection of the phone, I don't drop my phone often, never dropped it on concrete, I'm not very clumsy but I still want something that'll protect my very very expensive phone. The Otterbox defended and similar cases seem like overkill for me, but the clear plastic 2mm case seem like not enough protection, so I was wondering if there was a nice middle ground that wasn't too thick and bulky but would definitely protect the phone. I've got my eye on this one http://www.goballisticcase.com/products/samsung-galaxy-s-3-ballistic-sg-maxx-series-case, any other suggestions?
Keep in mind I'm coming from a Desire Z with a thickness of 14.2 mm, the S3 feels like a piece of paper in my hand coming from that, so a little bulk doesn't bother me.

That's a nice deal for the Kraken, I like the Aegis as well, they look really nice.
I know you said the otter box is excessive but they actually have two different styles at sprint. i have the slim otter its not bulky but protects everything. I like alot due to the fact that it protects the charging port as well as the ear phone Jack. I had the s2 before and my charging port always got stuff in it like lent from my pocket or what not. The case is lined with a silicone case inside a hard shell which will stop dirt from getting inside and scratching the device as well as making it more drop resistant. It is deffinatly worth having for 30 dollars.
The otter box i have is actually smaller than the case you have posted and comes with one screen protector as well.
Here is a youtube review of the case if it dosent play just google galaxy s3 otter box commuter caae.

+1 for Otterbox Defender. Its not anywhere near as bulky as I thought it was going to be and I really like how it provides me with solid, square edges so I can prop it up on my display screen in my car dash very easily and it stays securly in place (for the most part).
I'm looking for a case that offers some drop protection, but won't add a lot of bulk and won't stick to my pocket. Now I have a tpu case but I don't think it has much drop protection. Is there any bumper case that just go around the edge like the iPhone bumpers?

The back is plastic. That's the same exact case I got for my sisters One S, even the color, lol. And I have a similar blue one only the corners are thicker rubber. We got them so my nephew wouldn't damage our phones throwing them around. It will go in a pocket just fine if the pockets are roomy. Tight jeans might be a hassle.
Edit: Just checked the amazon link and that's the same one I have only in black. The only difference between that one and the green one is the plastic texture on the back. And the silicone corners layer is thinner on the green one, which annoys my sister as it stretched out and now the top and bottom is loose around her phone, whereas the thicker one I have holds tight and firm.
Hope that helps.

Well the d30 technology is made for impact protection(it's used in helmets, safety gear, etc) but I've never personally used it. I can verify the two piece plastic/rubber case I have definitely protects against drops, but with corners like that how could it not, lol. My phone straight up bounces when I drop it.
I've had 2 d3os, the one that was hard plastic on the back (99% of then crack) and the one that is all hard rubber. The buttons are really hard to press on either, and i think it led to a malfunctioning power button because i was pressing so hard. Great protection and doesn't come off easily. If you drop it face down i think it will protect it

The Beast from Evo claims this newfound Hybrid Armor can protect one's jewels from being thrown over 50 pes. I am very much so obliged to agree with this monstrous beast! His personal guarantee is written in stone as well.
I'm happy with my D3O case. Haven't had any major drops but it provides a nice grip when holding the phone so it's not as slick as the phone when it's naked.

I know otterbox has their milspec version but I don't think it's out for the moto just yet. For the price though it better stop a bullet.

Is there any other cases as strong as Otterbox Defender but not as bulky as otterbox? I googled about the Otterbox and a lot of people complained about the built-in-screen protector. It puts air gap and dust can go inside easily, causing it to scratch up your actual screen inside.
There are tons of cases out there. I couldn't answer that question. The last otterbox I had was for my galaxy s3. I prefer glass screen protectors so when I had the otterbox I took the plastic screen protector off and used my own glass one. I had to modify the case a tiny bit but it worked well.
I haven't seen the Note 4 otterbox so I'm not sure if the same thing could be done.

I have the otterbox symmetry. Its the thinnest otter box ever,plus it a one piece. No one protects better than otter box period. The defender is 100% unnecessary unless you plan on dropping your phone from the roof. The commuter has never allowed a phone to even crack and the new symmetry in my opinion is built much better then the commuter. The corners are protected on the symmetry.
I have both the Spigen Tough Armor and an Otterbox Defender.
The Tough armor goes on when I don't want to carry a bulky case around and when I'm not at work. Otherwise I use my defender when I am at work, both are very good cases but situational for me imo.
As said previously, the Otterbox Defender would be the best case for overall protection. If you can get around the bulk of the case which isn't that big of a deal to me.

I was about to say, "what screen protector?" LOL. I forgot that I got rid of the one that comes with the otterbox. Yes I did find that it was annoying and collected way too much dust to my liking.
So took it out, I prefer my own screen protector that I have on the phone's screen itself.
Honestly, if you install one on your phone as I did on mine, I see no use in keeping the cheap plastic one as well that comes on the otterbox itself.

Haha, you don't need a "crazy machine" to do it. I just took a pocket knife and carefully peeled up one of the edges, heck you can prob use your own nail or something close enough. Afterwards I just took some rubbing alcohol to get rid of the excess glue that bonds it to the case so it wouldn't stick to my phone.
Actually, heck you can just pop the sucker out by pushing it out from the front part carefully.

lmao thank you for your time, mate.
Oh wow, I just looked at a youtube vid. If this is the one you're talking about:
Lol, you don't need to go to extreme measures like this guy and use a heat gun rofl. Just push on it from the front and it should pop out. As I said, use rubbing alcohol to get rid of the glue.
But yeah, I ordered my Otterbox defender from ebay months ago when it just came out for the note 4. The official site didn't have the color setup I wanted so that's why I went with eBay.
Green is my favorite color, so I got it in hunter green rubber outside, with lime green casing inside.

Yup, that's the one lmao.
Just use the incipio case just as good as the otterbox case but slimmer. I dropped my phone off the roof of the house the other day and it was still good to go
