What type of case do you prefer to get with your mobile device? This isn't really for tablets as the case categories aren't the same.

1. Bumper cases: These are the cases that give your phone a bumper around its edges but don't cover the back or front of the phone.

2. Leather or Soft cases: These cases are made of soft material such as a leather. These cases also include cases under the pouches as most pouch cases are made from softer materials.

3. Hard Shell - typically made of TPU these cases snap on much like a bumper would, but instead cover the back of the phone for added protection.

4. Aluminum: These are the big high durability maximum protection cases.

What are your preferences? The data obtained from this poll might be used to make an infographic. Thanks for your time and help.

For extra thanks let me know if you have broken your phone in the past and how, especially interested if you broke it with a case on it.

Dunno which the Otterbox falls under...it's a hardcase on top of a softcase. Anyhow, an Otterbox for every phone I've owned. The missus didn't like it on her phone, so I got her a different phone and took over her old phone.

otterbox cases are pretty crazy. They have multiple layers which is why its so difficult to place. Thanks for letting me know that is your preference though. I'll make sure to make a note.
