White iphone 4 and the Otterbox

[Purple4]

Am I the only that seems to be having a problem with my white iphone 4 dialing while I am talking on it? It doesn't do it when I take the Otterbox off. I want to have a case on it for protection, any suggestions?

Unfortunately Otterboxes are known to have issues with white iPhones.

Otterboxes are notorious for having problems with the white iPhone, sadly Fortunately, there are other cases that are just as protective. I recommend the LifeProof case or one of Seidio's many protective cases.

LifeProof looks awesome, I am afraid to purchase it though because I too own a white iPhone ... I would hate to discover that it didn't work. I am waiting for more people with white iPhones to review that case.

OtterBox has a statement on website for the Defender Cases that it doesn't work with the White iPhone, but to check out the commuter or reflex series. I have the Commuter (black on black) and no problems.

Weird my GF has the white i4 and a white Defender case and everything works fine. I guess it's prob she only calls using the headphones.

Mat be it is one of the case, because my white iphone is working fine with defender cases. I am sure there may be some other issues but it looks cool otherwise. Try some other cases may be it will work.

I also have the white Iphone, and I experienced the same issues with the Defender Otterbox case. The lady at the AT&T store told me, I could only use one of the Shell Cases for the phone, so I am really thinking about taking the phone back to the store..........

Thank you all for your suggestions.

...maybe also look at a Speck case. I also notice that sometimes when typing with my Otterbox case, the screen is not as responsive.

I've since switched back to my Speck case, and I guess due to the lack of screen protection the typing is working correctly.

Since they moved the position of the proximity sensor on the White iPhone 4 the defender now covers it up. There really isnt much you can do about it. I have the commuter with an invisible shield and it works great for me. i like the feel of the commuter better anyways.
