I got the Defender today. I REALLY like it.
After all of the hoopla about this phone, and I got one, I was not really liking it.
It is TOO skinny, and just wide enough to be awkward for me to hold. Plus, i was afraid i was going to drop it and/or scratch it.
I had trouble that I was accidently bumping the volume buttons, and they were way sensitive, and there I would be looking at my ringtone volume slider.... NO...
Another thing I noticed was that I was having to drag the screen around to get it to move. usually, could just give one a shove and it would scroll all over, very responsively, not this one.
Also, last but not least, I had numerous instances where i would tap on the back button and it would do not a thing... over and over... ???
So what is up with that, this glass not like my fingers???
Anyway, this Defender case takes care of ALL of those problems for me. First off, it is a VERY well designed case and fits together QUITE well. It is rugged and protective and it gives the phone just enough bulk and texture that I feel GOOD holding it, not like it is going to squirt out of my hand somewhere and shatter on the deck...
For some reason now, the screen responds 300% better than it did before, that sucker just flies around in response to my thumb. And the back key pays attention now too!
My hand can bump the volume button and not wake them up inadvertently, that is good.
I don't have much resistance as far as the power button goes, but it is a bit stiff on the camera. I can live with that if it doesn't work itself out.
The screen IS an oil magnet though, going to try keeping a microfiber cloth handy, I guess.
I'm not sure what I think of the snap on holster yet. It is BIG. One thing, the phone isn't going to fall out of there. see how hard it is to make sure I put it in there though, or how hard it is to get out when I get a call.
Anyway, I LIKE it!
