@gav1inmac are you serious! the survivor case may be tougher but who wants a case that big and bulky. who in bloody hell wants a port for the cut-out for the camera, it takes way too long to take out when you need to take a picture. i think its just a big rip off of the defender series by otterbox.
when i was debating whether to put my phone in an otterbox defender or not, i thought i am going to drop my phone, so i need to be ready when the time comes. I thought about viagra.
Awesome video! Makes me want to get on the roof and drop my iP4! But I don't see me doing that anytime soon. My only suggestion is that if you do drop the phone again and take a video, dloit without the plastic holder thing. I think you called it a craddle. That way rather than the holder taking the blow the actual otterbox does. Like what if someone is texting near a ledge and someone bumps or stumbles into them? They might drop the phone off theedhe or fall with it! But yiu arent going to tex
Big case eh? Well, my 3yo son just had a temper tantrum while I was in the garage knockin' up a bookshelf; I left my iP4 in the Defender case on the bench. He picks it up and slams it on the ground with all his might. I think 'oh fuck'. I pick it up, take the iP4 out of the case, and guess what... Not a mark on it. This really is the best case u can get.
I just got my iPhone 4 today, and I've been watching a lot of your videos, and for some reason every test you do makes me cringe thinking something bads going to happen to the iPhone xD
I was thinking about this case, not to protect it from my clumsiness, but to protect it from my 4 year old daughter who plays the games on my phone the minute I get home from work. If it can take the abuse shown here, it can withstand my daughter.
It may make my phone big, but it protects the heck out of it, thats way better than spending $95 on the insurance deductible with Verizon to get it replaced.
i just got my iphone 4 2 days ago and got this case. my first impression was that its huge! but now im getting used to it...it has full protection, every single port and button is covered except the speaker and mic at the bottom and the noise cancelation mic at the top. i use this for everyday purposes at school cuz when i use it in the hallways and walk around i dont wanna drop it, also my school has a lot of stairs so i feel safe with it.
AHH THANK GOD! i was on the fence on whether to but a black berry torch or an iphone. I know iphone is better but the only reason why i was nearly going to think of buying a bb was because ive watched some drop tests on the iphone 4 and damn...the result wer not pretty.... now that ive seen a great case that will protect the iphone im so releived :D
I had to have this case, I had it ordered from the US since we don't get it here in the Philippines, and I must say, this is a MUST BUY for any iPhone 4 user, I sleep really easily at night knowing that if I do drop my phone, it's gonna be protected. :D
A further problem with this case is that there is not enough interior padding inside to stop the phone making contact directly with the case itself.Rubber exterior is all very well,but not if the case in contact is hard plastic.That means any shock that makes its through the outer layer of rubber,will almost certainly cause the iphone to shatter.As in my brothers phone which fell from his pocket.A fall of just 3FT.A failing of both the iphone and this case.
Mm in reference to my earlier posting about this case.My first impressions of it were good,but there are some problems with it handling the iphone. The plastic screen at the back exposes the ( and let not deny this fact) fragile glass case of the Iphone to getting a bash.The iphone case has been under attack again because of the failings of his supposedly toughened glass used in the iphone.
Great video... I just got this case and its awsome .... Just tested it out by throwing it at my sisters face... The phone still works great but my sister has a black eye.
I would like to reply to you regarding this test.I purchased an otterbox defender for myself and my brother as we both have the new iphone 4.My brothers phone slipped from his pocket,a fall of no more than 3ft..The back of his phone shattered into very small shards.So much for the 5oft fall seen in many promo videos online
@Actingskint honestly I would say that that is a matter of bad luck. I have already dropped mine several times and nothing is wrong with the case nor the phone. And clearly other people still love this protector, not sure what happened there.
there is a ballistic case , not as good as the otter box detail for attaching charger or video wires. .. the ballistic did meet monkey standards.. my video is on you tube under search , I phone 4 jacking. check it out.
Thank you for this review. I was debating to get the commuter or defender and now I have found my answer. Excellent review and straight to the point. 5 stars and thumbs up!
dude, i couldn't even do that to someone else's iPhone let alone myself, ballsy as hell you are my good sir, but amazing helpful knowing the defender truly protects
Everyone around my area use the defender on their 3G and 3GS on a daily basis. I do to, but I got the iPhone 4, so now, I have to get a new one, but I don't what color to get: blue, red, or black.
By far the BEST otterbox defender review! thank you so much for taking those risks just to test it for this review,. ive had mine for about 2 weeks and dropped it the other day and wasnt even worried at all, very happy i went with this case,..yes it does have alot of bulk but i look at it this way, since there isnt any insurance for this phone besides apple care, id rather have a bulky case that i wont have to worry about paying 6-$700 to replace the phone, This case gives me piece of mind!!!!!
Awesome review man! I have the case myself, I work as a disaster clean up worker for like house fires or floods or wind damage, and I absolutely love this case, it's well built and protects my phone amazingly! I like you accent as well lol, scotish?
@GarciaBoii213 cheers for letting me know a competitor to this defender exists. Just emailed Incipio to see if they would lend one for a review/test. Looks impressive. Thanks again :D
Amazing Video! You've most certainly just become one of my favorite youtubers =)
I'd love get this case and take it with me when i go skiing, but i think it would get soaked if i tried to bring it down the slopes (i'm not very good at the sport, you see)
@snoogan007 cheers :). I like having a different approach to my videos and I hope its worth it in the end. Wouldn't want you guys wasting time on buying something if it doesnt live up
Excellent review. Thanks for showing the stress test. I am glad to see the new OtterBox is just as protective as the previous model. I really look forward to seeing your stress test on the iPad Defender case.
@opemferre its a shame, i agree. They used to (back in the day) do an 'Armor' series which I recieved earlier on in my YouTube debut (lol). Those were SOLID casses. The defender is the strongest case since, no company has come close. Its a shame though that they removed the water aspect and im hoping they're secretly working in the back getting it relaunched.
Nice one lol the defender is certainly the best out there for hardcore protection. Dont drop your ipad out the window lol i was nervous for your iphone
@theunits.."military grade solution case" ?...lmao....watch "the Green Zone" and/or "The Hurt Locker" and this is the case they use...but for a bus ride in London ? Oh nevermind..I get your drift!
