I have had a otter box and a ballistic and they are both wonderful. I have never had problems.

Yes I do. The one place that it is sensitive is when on the lock screen and trying to move the slider, and it won't catch sometimes. But let me tell you it's worth it to me because yesterday I dropped my iPhone on the concrete in a puddle, and there was no damage at all thanks to my defender!

Install a Zagg Invisible Shield HD and remove the protective screen from the Otter Box, that will give you all the protection you had before, has a lifetime warranty and the display will look ten times better, just did it to mine and I could not be happier. Thai on this site recommended to do it and I am glad I did!

I just went to the website to see about ordering one. Can you tell me which one would be the one to order? There seems to be a few options. I have a defender also.

The HD front cover is the one I put on mine and the wife's, they don't take anything away from the Retina display. Crystal clear and I tested the key on it first thing, not a scratch!

I also have a defender but a question has arisen: two different employees at two different Apple stores have told me that Apple does not recommend the Otterbox line because while they do provide great coverage they also trap heat inside the phone and that can cause damage. Anyone have the overheating problem because of using an Otterbox??

I left my phone plugged in with the GPS running all day and a few other apps and the phone was fine all day. Any case is going to trap heat, unless it has a built in heat sync.

I decided to put this to a test. Drained my phone to 10% last night, plugged it in and started the GPS (Waze). Drove over 200 miles today, all during the trip I was using various other apps and the case was not warm to the touch. Took the phone out of the case and although a little warm, nothing compared to my HTC EVO Shift!

Again, I think 90% or better of cases retain residual heat from charging and excess usage, but I don't believe the Defender brings it to an unsafe temp.

Wow - that is a lot of risk (not to mention time) involved in your doing that! Thanks so much!

I drove that for my job, lol. I drive a tow truck and made the 200 mile round trip to pick up a disabled vehicle to be repaired locally. T
I do this daily, six days a week.
