So I've had my iPhone 5 since January and quickly ordered an Otterbox Defender. My boyfriend got one for his 4S because he's pretty tough on phones. My Blackberry Storm2's camera broke when I dropped it last fall, and I've seen what happens to iPhones when dropped.

I've been reasonably happy with the Defender, but I admit it's bulky and I've already had the silicon replaced once, and I need to report scratches on the screen protector for warranty replacement.

What alternatives are out there that will offer similar peace of mind to those of us with butter fingers? I've sort of looked at the Speck Candyshell but the reviews are mixed. I won't do anything that is soley plastic. Thanks!
