Accessories otterbox case

I don't have any pics, but it is typical otterbox fare... tight fitting, a little bit bulky, nice screen protector. It was easy to install, and looks good. I am totally happy with it. It actually helps make the volume buttons much more difficult to press (a good thing) The slider is tight with the case on also, which I really like. I will try to get some pics up, but I'm not taking it off just for that...

...and I had a hard time snapping the front frame on.....Its on, and not going anywhere now, but the lower left and corner is still not actually "snapped" on...seems it just can't, clippy piece not fitted right ? well, I bought it from one of otterboxes distributors....so they still offered to send me out a new one , which was really nice....
next day (today) I realize when you slide the phone open and holding it the way you do to type / text...the left side is the rubbery end and it is easily pushed off / peels back because the hard part of the case doesn't begin yet. (does that make sense?)
I called and reported this to them, and while they made a note of it, they can't do anything else because I didn't buy it direct.
Oh well. I have a new one on the way....i'll use it till I cant stand it anymore, they say they don't have any other styles in the works for the shift.
fyi :thinking:

After going through two Seidio Innocase front part keep popping off. I tried OttereBox. let me tell you I Love My OtterBox Commuter Series Case. It works like its suppose to you snap it on and that's it. it wont pop off like my "old/new" case Seidio. Actually I have a hard time removing this case off my phone. "hard reset" It is a little thicker than Seidio's case but it works .

Yeah, I have an active case which when dropped the front piece would pop off and after 4 months of using with care one of the upper clips broke on the front piece. That's 3 cases I've had from seidio that have had the clips break (2 with my touch pro 2). Disappointing considering I am very careful with my phones. On the other hand the otterbox isn't as nice looking but definately stays on much better and hopefully will outlast seidio's 3-4 month lifespan that I'm having.

My first innocase broke for the same reason as above. And somehow over the weekend the same happened to the second one. They'll replace under warranty, but I'll have to pay to ship it back to them. That can easily be a partial payment for a new case instead!

I'm on a quest for the next case. It looks like Otterbox is the one.
