Hello all,

I recently purchased an iPhone 7+ and I immediately bought a case for it. I have had life proof cases on my iPhones in the past and have not been too happy. I bought a pelican case ($59.00) at Walmart that is shockproof and waterproof. I am not happy because the sound quality and call quality is terrible. Music is distorted and I can barely hear while on the phone. I am about to return this case and need advice for others. I want something protective, but that also optimizes phone experience. I am willing to do some kind of screen cover/ separate case combo, but any advice is appreciated!
 
I’ve been very happy with these, the plus iPhones are big enough without a case so I wanted something that doesn’t add a lot of bulk. I do have a Lifeproof case that I use for the boat but it’s too big for everyday use.

Best protective and slim case I’ve used is the rhino shield solid suit or playproof. Excellent case.

Second best is the caudabe synthesis followed closely by the sheath. Caudabe makes excellent cases.
