What iPhone case should I get? - 1

Otterbox defender or the waterproof one. Not really looking for a answer just reasons to get one or the other. I live in chicago and am in high school so you know the tossing and turning tossing of phones. Otterbox defender has the protection of a tank but no waterproof. The waterproof is less protection but 0 water damage so wats better to have protection for CRACKS OR WATER DAMGE…

Get the new Lifeproof! It's a brand. It's 10x better than an otterbox (which cracked my screen) and it's waterproof. I dropped my new iPhone into my pond this morning and the lifeproof box protected it perfectly.

Otter cases are very strong. I hear there's a water proof case now but i don't know what its called… Some phone stores actually display the case by putting a phone in water.

Personally I didn't like the Lifeproof cases. They were impractical - I felt as though I had to disassemble things to use my phone. I got a slimline Otterbox about a year ago and have been very happy with it.

Unless you have your phone in the bathroom when you shower or have a chance of dropping it in water, I wouldn't worry about the waterproof aspect.

Well I have the water proof one now (life proof) and I like it. And I haven't really dropped it but its supposed to be strong close to somewhat of the otter box but I have yet to find out. Any way I have also ha the otter box and dropped it many times and has not cracked or anything. I once dropped it a good 7 feet and no crack. If you're going to get the life proof case though, be aware that you do have to have an attachment for headphones and it doesn't always work well plus with the life proof you have the certain charger plug in for your phone. The thinner one. I would go with the otter box personally unless you seem to drop stuff in water a lot.
