Review: Otterbox Reflex for iPhone 4

[Plooney]

Hi guys,

Got my hands on the new reflex series case for the iPhone 4, it is a two piece slider case that features a co-molded design of plastic and tpu into one. It slides onto the phone with relative ease and does not bubble screen shields.

Protection wise, you'll be sure to get pretty good protection as the hybrid design allows for drop protection on all 4 corners (where the TPU is located) while the plastic backing protects from scratches. This also allows it to slide in and out of pockets with ease.

What makes this case so special? To me it looks just like every other slider case out there.

Thanks for the review, I got the bright pink one for my wife so she doesn't break her phone.

The hybrid mix, I thought I had specified it enough in the video. Rest of sliders are all plastic, this has more shock and impact resistance.

I work outside and wondering if i should go with the defender or reflex? It appears to be much thinner in size from the defender is that true? Does it come with a screen protector?

Never mind I see it does come with a screen protector. what kind of protector did you have on the device for the review?

i am not a fan of the case, it isnt a very tight fit and i have even pulled it out of my pocket and come out with just the bottom of the case. there are gaps around the case at the ports that let dust and lint in and i havent had good luck with screen protectors either, bubble galore.

Glad to know I was wondering myself if this case was worth it? I am leaning toward the defender. Any other cases I should look at first?
