I resisted until after the second screen cracked and haven't had a problem since.
You have to poof a little baby powder on the inside plastic screen so it doesn't bubble and not use the belt clip holster though. The holster allows the phone to fly off in my experience.
I also found you need to open up the tab that covers the charge port or you get an echo when talking and the Otterbox doesn't allow charging with anything other than the factory charger, which sucks in the car as it's a pain to open up.

I'm kinda rough on stuff, so the Otterbox is a necessary evil. This takes out the benefit of the slimmer design of the 4 and leaves me wondering what features warrant an immediate upgrade...

This video was shot on my way home with the 4G. Then edited with the 4G. Music added from 4G. Then posted to YouTube with the 4G. Finally I posted this with the 4G.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hrYif...=youtube_gdata

Amazing Phone. Whole process including drive took 45 minutes

YouTube's compression makes the video look like ass. The in phone video 720 HD is spot on. It does have the CMOS "jello" effect when not perfectly stable and moving. This was hand held.

Pete: The "New" Holster Locks The Phone In As Tight As A Drum As Long As You Make Sure Your USB Port Is Closed Up Tightly On The Otterbox. If You Have Had Your Otterbox Less Than One Year, You May Get The New Holster For Free From Otterbox or ATT.

Very good to know Greg. I bought mine off Ebay and wonder if the ATT store near me would honor this.....

Come to think of it, there's one across from Corona Cigar so that gives me an excuse to head there now!!!

Carlos, I've been using my otterbox from day one. They are incredible.
I bought Lisa one for on her motorcycle, but she didn't use it regular. Now she does.
We literally tried every cover worth trying, I read all the reviews and tied up a small fortune in cases. The otter box is the best by a longshot.
It does as bulk, but I can roll my phone down the steps all day and it won't get hurt.

The coolest looking covers were the metallic Noel series. Dustin (XXX) said he and Echo got them and they were gorgeous. They were. The only problem was that they killed our reception and our GPS wouldn't work.

I won't ever look for another phone cover. Otter Box is the sh!t.

I have a drawer full of phone cases and gun holsters that serve as a reminder of my searches for fit and fictionality.

I've had the origina iPhone for over 2.5 years with no case and haven't had any problems. A few very minor scratched on the back and edges but overall it held up more than I expected. I will be taking my chances with the new phone too... I just like the look and size without a case...

I've got the Comuter Series case for my 3G and imo it's the best case I've ever had for it. Currently I'm on the list to be notified when the iPhone 4 version is ready. The Defender case doesn't look too bulky for the iPhone 4 like it did for the 3G/3Gs.

Here's the link to the Otterbox iPhone 4 cases: OtterBox

Just picked up the Belkin clear case for the phone at Best Buy.
Looks and works great.
Barely adds any size to the phone and cushions it well. Beats the bumper being sold by Apple and it is very soft material that won't scratch up the phone as the harder cases will, specially when dust particles get caught up in there.

Knowing me, I will forever search for more cases I like but this one is great for now.
