Pretty good,
I bought this for my iPhone 4S. I am happy with the case. The color does not look exactly like the picture, however; the case is actually a lighter blue and not as green. Still, it looks really nice and goes great with my white iPhone. I gave this case 4 stars instead of 5 because the plastic is slippery– I was hoping it would have more grip. I feel like it could easily slip out of my hands. Additionally, it takes some effort to get the silicone to align with the plastic, and it never exactly lines up quite right, leaving gaps and slightly sharp edges where the two materials meet. This is barely noticeable though.
What I like about this case is that it feels sturdy, yet it isn’t so bulky that it cannot fit into my tight jeans. I obviously try to avoid dropping my phone so I haven’t seen how well it protects from impacts. Still, I’m pretty confident it’ll protect my phone when I inevitably drop it. The silicone plug covers are nice, although the USB cover never seems to fit quite right. Also, the USB cover makes it impossible to dock the phone into an ihome unless you take the case off. Also, the hole on the back of the case that exposes the apple logo leaves the back vulnerable to scratches. I already have a front screen protector so I cut a hole in the back of the otterbox screen protector for the camera and put it on the back of my phone to protect from scratches.
Overall, I would recommend this case to friends and am happy I purchased it.
!! UPDATE: So I’ve been using this case for about a month and I have to say I still love it. I’ve dropped it a couple times from waist height onto both tile and hardwood, and the case fully protected my phone. The case is also in perfect condition despite the drops. I recommend this case to clumsy people like myself. 🙂

|Superior to all other iPhone cases,
I have had an iPhone for about 3 years now and have gone through so many cases. I’ve had the iFrogz Luxe Case, SwitchEasy CapsuleRebel M Menace Hybrid Case, and the Agent18 EcoShield Slider; my boyfriend also had the Otterbox Defender. Although each of these cases has perks, they all have drawbacks. I see many more pros with the Commuter Series from OtterBox than I have seen with any other iPhone case.
For starters, the case is not bulky. When comparing it to the Defender, it wins hands down. The defender was awkward, bulky, and came with a holster clip that most girls won’t use. Yes, this case would be handy if you were possibly in the construction business or if you really had a problem with dropping your phone, but for my needs, it didn’t fit the bill. The Commuter case has a soft inside and a hard exterior, and they come in two different colors. This is both appealing and functional. The soft rubber casing allows for a no-slip grip and shock absorber and the hard shell keeps it from being too sticky. It is comfortable in the hand and provides the perfect balance of rubber to hard shell casing.
I have dropped my phone a few times and the case has held up well, I can’t see any wear on it. However, I have noticed that the soft shell (my color is yellow) does show discoloration. My hard shell is gray and you can see gray spots all throughout my yellow case. While this is not a big deal to me, it is just something I thought was worth mentioning. The Commuter Series in my opinion is superior to all other iPhone cases I have owned and, for $22, I think it’s worthy of protecting the iPhone.

Seems like this case has a lot of controversy regarding what the actual color is. I shot this video so you can make your own decision.
