This is my second otterbox case since my first one was a defender case for the blackberry 8520 and although they are not the same series the galaxy s otterbox commuter case is also a top notch option to protect your brand new android. It's designed to fit perfectly, having openings for every connection, camera and sensor as well as rubber contours for the power and volume buttons.
Most of the outside, in fact the whole back is protected by the hard plastic cover while the rubber material is what makes direct contact with the phone and shows on the borders.
It brings a nice screen protector so that your phone is safe all around. Remember it's a good practice to spray some water in the air where you are applying the cover one to two minutes before installing it to avoid dust particles(that's in addition to cleaning the screen of course).
Highly recommended. OtterBox Commuter Case for Samsung Galaxy S
This is my first smart-phone case, for my first ever smart-phone. I have a Vibrant, however the Galaxy S is dimensionally identical, and Otterbox confirms that the case works equally well for both models.
The Otterbox Commuter adds a tiny bit of width and thickness to your Galaxy S/Vibrant, and adds a LOT of texture to an otherwise smooth and slippery shape. The phone simply FEELS more substantial in your hand. In the event that your fingers are sweaty or slippery for any reason, having the Otterbox on your phone will make you much LESS likely to drop it in the first place, and provides significant protection if you do.
There are actually three separate parts to the Otterbox Commuter. First is an optional clear screen protector. Second is a soft silicone skin which slips over the back of the phone and around the bezel, and provides a small lip projecting slightly higher than the screen. Finally, a stiff polycarbonate "shell" or "carapace" snaps over the back of the silicone, providing an exoskeleton of sorts and anchoring the silicone skin, preventing it from peeling off.
The polycarbonate covers the entire back (except for two ports for camera lens and speaker), and most of the ends and sides, with the corners protected by the silicone inner layer. Impacts on the polycarbonate are distributed across a wide area and the silicone inner layer absorbs and cushions the force.
The headphone jack is covered by a rubber plug that can peel back if you want to use it, and the on/off and volume control buttons can be reached by molded in raised rubber buttons on the silicone portion.
There are some nice touches, such as an included cloth to clean the screen before installing the screen protector, and a little card to smooth any air bubbles after installation. The Otterbox logo is discretely molded into the back of the polycarbonate.
The Otterbox is one of the more expensive cases out there. It is well designed and well made, and based on the investment in the phone itself, I felt that the Otterbox was a worthwhile purchase to protect that investment.
Well, this case is the best mobile case ever. I just bought a Samsung Galaxy S - International Version, and it fits and protects my phone perfectly. It is easy to adjust to the phone, and it also comes with a film protector. Samsung Galaxy S is very thin, and this case doesn't increase the thickness too much. It is perfect.
this case is quality product. it is 2 layers, silicon inner layer with plastic outer shell. the protection is basically overkill. it fits the phone really well. IMO it's worth the $$ investment to protect the phone which you may be using for 1-2 years.
The Otterbox Samsung Galaxy S Commuter case is a good product for a great price on Amazon. It was 40-50 dollars elsewhere. The only thing I don't like is that it covers up the camera so I have to take the case off everytime I want to use the camera feature.
The Otterbox Commuter Case for my Samsung Galaxy S was an outstanding choice. The case fits perfectly and the phone is fully protected. I strongly recommend this product. The only drawback is that it is really difficult to clean the clear screen protector on the phone. Skin oils get on the protector when the phone is used and they are hard to get off. A good solution are the lens towelettes from Walmart, 30 for $1.00.
OtterBox has a good reputation for being the quality standard in the phone protection hardware. They have let me down on this one. I ordered the case for the Samsung Galaxy only to find that the hole for the camera does not match the actual camera placement, so when the otter box is one the phone, the lens cannot pick up anything but black. I thought at first that maybe I had ordered the wrong model/make, but after checking, the models match. I don't know what happened with this Otter Box.
This particular Otter Box case fits the Samsung Galaxy S 4g (T Mobile) phone perfectly. It adds to the phone the right amount of weight while protecting the phone with both a gel and hard shell casing. The case is not bulky, thus allowing the phone to retain much of its sleekness. It comes with a screen protector which is relatively simple to put on. Overall, I am very happy with my purchase of this product. - Otterbox - Screen Protector - Samsung - Case'
