Otterbox defender alternitive

[cytoxyn]

I am currently looking to change my case. I am using an Otterbox defender Series yellow and black case. I am very abusive with my phone and I work in a dirty environment so I need a lot of protection similar to what the Otterbox case offers. I have looked at the Speck Tough Skin series, which is ok, but I want a change of color from the black, pink, white, and yellow that I have found. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I don't think you are going to find anything quite as protective as the defender.

Maybe you can try one of Otterbox's new Commuter TL cases.

They come in a bunch of colors, I have their regular Commuter and I'm real happy with it.

I have thought about those, but I am scared to go with less protection than what the defender series offers

The commuter looks nice, anybody know how one could use a case like the defender or commuter and still have a way of easily docking the phone in say a Bose Soundock? I'd love to use the commuter, but I dock in the Soundock pretty often, my incase slider is easy enough to dock by removing the bottom, what do you do if using an otterbox case?

Would a dock extender cable work, like this?

You can forget about "easily" docking an iPhone with an Otterbox on it. The Defender is tough, the Commuter is a bit easier but there's still 2 layers to it.
I guess if you practice enough you can do it rather quickly!

Nice case but I have the Commuter, got it for $29.99, -$5 off retail

got mine in the mail yesterday and it works great...great build, better than something apple would make...worth the money if the defender is your case of choice.
