I bought a real cheap cover on ebay. I've dropped my phone so many times it's unreal that I've never cracked my phone.

I've dropped it on the floor at home or the metro platform. It's a cover that takes a licking and still goes on ticking...

I've been super lucky...but I'm happy enough with it!

If you drop your phone frequently, the Otterbox is really the only case that will give you peace of mind. I have had so many other cases crack, shatter and split in two when I've dropped them.

I have an Otterbox and its great. I drop my phone all the time and it has zero damage.

I love the OtterBox Commuter for true protection. It's got an optional front screen cover, which is nice to me because I hate screen covers.

What I don't like about it is the silicone case is so big I can't plug the cord into the iphone to listen to music in my car. And it doesn't fit on the couple of docking stations at home for charging/listening to music. So I have to remove it to do these things.

Otherwise, the protection is awesome.

I need something to protect it for when DS grabs it and drops it on the floor. I don't worry too much about grimmy hands, though maybe I should??

Thanks
