    Default Official Otterbox Commuter Case Thread

    I did not see a thread for this case, but I thought it deserved one as soon as I put this on my Note II. This case is AWESOME! Just arrived today. I've had Otterbox Commuters for my Droid Incredible and Rezound, and this one beats both of those hands down. Everyone is familiar with the protection that these cases provide, but after days using the OEM Protector+ case and the Body Glove TPU case, this Otterbox makes the phone actually more comfortable to hold by giving it more depth and curved sides. My thought before buying this case was that because the phone was already big, why not get a big case? Plus, with the 5.5 inch screen, this phone begs for protection. But now that it's on the phone, the case doesn't seem big at all. It's the screen that still grabs your attention. I realize one negative point about Otterbox cases has been that the rubber layer is a lint magnet, but apparently this case is using Otterbox's newer rubber material. It definitely feels smoother and different from the other Commuter cases I had owned and has a shiny appearance very similar to that of the polycarbonate(?) shell layer. I cannot comment on this for sure, but I would be surprised if it attracted lint in your pockets. Volume and power buttons are easy to press (I read this was a concern with this case). The back, as with all Commuters, is slightly slippery, not as grippy as the other Note II cases I mentioned above. But thanks to the stylish parallel lines running across the back, it's grippier than the phone's bare back. Here are a few pics.

    Thanks for sharing the pics looks awesome. I agree with you, phone is already big so it doesnt really matter how thick/big the case is. I have candyshell on my phone and note 2 doesnt look or feel bulkier with it on like my iphone 4 did when i put candyshell on it. as soon as I get bored with jt I will get the commuter, looks really neat and protection is def there.

    I got mine earlier in the week, still undecided if I am going to keep it or not. I am torn between many cases and I don't need more than one. The OEM Samsung case arrives today and now the elago G6 leather flip cover+case is out and it does what I wanted Samsung to do. Make a case that protects the whole phone top to bottom. and its a nice looking case.

    I am pleased to report that the rubber layer does not appear to attract any lint.

    Thanks for the review and the pics. I ordered mine through for about $10 cheaper then otterbox.com. Checkout the bottom of the page for the video review of the Avon case.
