Should I get an Otterbox for my iPhone?

I just spent 40 bucks to get an iPhone, with an upgrade, from Verizon and I'm not sure that I want to spend another 40-50 to get an Otterbox cover. Do I really need it? I mean I have dropped my Blackberry a bunch in the past and the silicon cover I had for it protected it every time. Could I get away with just getting a cheaper type of cover? Opinions please.

Absolutely. I have one on my iPhone, and not only does it help you keep a grip on your iPhone in precarious situations, but it is also semi-water proof (meaning that you can just wipe it off after that coffee spill), and is practically indestructible. You can drop it (I wouldn't recommend that, particularly, though! XD), step on it, really do anything to it, and your iPhone will be fine. I'm a 15 year old guy, and I've had my iPhone for about 5 months now, and it still looks brand new.

The only drawback; you have to buy a new one every 10-12 months, since the silicone deteriorates. It's worth the 15 bucks of the case, though…

  • What otterbox color combination should I get? I have a rose gold iPhone 6s and I want to know which color combination looks the best with it? BTW I hate the black on black combo so don't suggest that. I was thinking maybe Blue And Green or Blue and White but I don't know. Best Answer gets 10pts
  • What otterbox case should I get? I'm thinking about getting an otterbox defender case or an otterbox armor case (for iPhone 4S). I can't decide which to get, the price doesn't matter to me. I want to get the armor case, but I've seen drop tests with it and the case actually opened when it hit the ground, which is a better buy? Which will protect my phone better?
  • What otterbox case should I get? - 1 I got my iPhone 5 last week and I already have a case but i'm getting the otterbox soon. I heard defender cases are really good but can't fit in your pocket. The commuter case can fit in your pocket better but it's not as protective as the defender. Also what color should I get. I already know a lot of people with grey/white and pink/white. Which colors looks better on a white iPhone?
