Rubber or plastic iphone 4s case?

I'm thinking about getting a case for my iphone 4s. Should i get a rubber or plastic one. (i'm getting one to protect my phone. Which has better chances of protecting my phone from breaking if i drop it).

Rubber - more shock absorbent

Check out what Otterbox offers. There are different series that offer from mild to heavy duty protection with a belt clip. I prefer the Commuter series.

Rubber cases do not get scratched. Easy to wash, absorb more shock. Easy to remove and store. You can fold them.

  • What is the tightest fitting rubber iPhone 4 case? Every rubber case I've tried or checked out on other people's phones just sucks. They are way too loose. I'm looking for a rubberish iPhone 4 case that is extremely difficult to stretch fit around the 4 so that it's extremely tight. Has anyone seen anything like this? Please don't recommend any 'Griffin' products.
