I've had two lifeproof cases. The first for an iphone 5. After a year, there was a small problem with the case where the charging cord connects. I contacted Lifeproof and they replaced the case for free. However, they mistakenly sent me the nuud case instead of the fre' case. I told them the situation - they told me to keep the wrong case and donate it to someone and they would overnight the correct case. I have another fre' case for Iphone 6 and love it. My husband has an otterbox for his iphone 6 and wishes it weren't so bulkly. I really think you can't go wrong with either. I think it's definitely Personal preference!
