Default Re: iPhone 4s cases??

I just use the incase, knock on wood but the screen is still "new". But you can get a cheap $10 stick cover type deal for it. Wouldn't help a drop but scratches would be prevented.

The Otterboxes are great but the belt clip breaks every time. I broke 2 for the 3G. It is definitely too big to put in a pocket as well.

We just got a 4s and went with the otterbox as for previous iPhones. No one says that you have to use the clip. We don't.

I really liked my Otterbox Defender BUT when it was on I had a lot of trouble with my home button not responding! My buddy had the same exact issue and got his phone replaced because his home button wasnt working. (his problem also ended up also going away when he removed the case)

I had it on my phone for a month now have a $39 case sitting on my counter.... I replace my case every month or two. Go to 5 Below and can get some very nice cases for $5

It's not the case, it's a flaw in Apple's design. Mine is starting to do that also, as is my wife's and we don't use the defender.

I was told once by someone in the know that the home button wasn't designed to take as much use as the phone calls for. Supposedly it is fixed in the 4s.

I don't know enough to say this with any authority, but may it's just the 4. Those are the only ones I've known to have it happen, and my original and 3gs were fine. I wonder if they used a different type of button (albeit one that looks the same)?

Ditto. Threw clip part in drawer. Haven't used a phone clip in years. They ALL break on me. I can take otter box covered phone in and out of pocket easily. I don't usually keep iPhone in pants pocket while sitting, though. But again, I never kept other cell phones in pocket while sitting, either
