I just bought my husband the Galaxy S II E4GT on Saturday with OBD case. That whole set up is huge! Compared next to my NS4G with a TPU case, it feels like a paperback to me. He kept asking me if I wanted to switch, lol, no. He kept hinting for weeks that he needed a phone beside his work phone. So, I picked the E4GT for it's size (bigger hands) and its display. He is a total noob with a smartphone so the GSIII would have been overkill. (I'm waiting for the new Nexus, I'm a fangirl) So far so good.

He has a way to go, but is having fun with it. I did have to disable auto correct after receiving some really confusing texts yesterday, lol. :p

I wanted the Defender for its extra durability, so I do not use the clip unless to set the phone on something, so a video can be watched.

It seems to be nearly indestructible, I've never used one before, this was my first experience with it. He is on construction job sites every day so I knew he needed something durable. I was impressed that every port had it's own little cover. I personally don't think I would ever use one because it just adds so much bulk to a phone and I have really small hands, so TPU works great for me. I have a leather cell phone case/wallet that I use and is perfect for my needs.
