A review of the Otterbox Impact Series Case for the iPhone 4. Overall if you want something to protect your phone, you will not be disappointed with this silicone case. However few downsides are the lint catching issues as well as the fact that my case was a bit loose on my phone. Thank you to Otterbox for providing me this case for review. Go check out their site and the other cases they have below. Remember to Comment, thumbs up and subscribe! Twitter: twitter.com Website: www.tekbeattv.com Manufacturer Link www.otterbox.com

in the first few days, every otterbox attracts a bit of lint. but after 3 days, it wont attract practically any at all. but after you wash off the case it will attract lint again for a few days. but theyre very good cases
@savaspar Just remove the “-” in the end between J and c. I don’t know why it appears in paste. Might youtube insert it for security. This video is in the search too. You can type e.g. otterbox impact marks iphone
This case marks my iphone front and rear glasses.. Look here: youtube.com/watch?v=owL8UkNppJc
It will make your iPhone twice as big an unhandy. Do not buy.
@CaseyJ747 Interesting, nope the grippiness (lint catching) stayed for me even after a month
.
@andysgrl33 Nice!
How long you use it?After a few weeks,my Impact case stopped attracting dirt.Altho some Impact colors won’t work on some iPhones,I use a BLACK Otterbox Impact case,on AT&TiPhone4.Case does feel loose,but still works buttons.Adds size,but negligble weight.Only trouble–on summer road trip, black iPhone on black dashboard overheated& screen went dark,runnin GPS map apps.No permanent damage.But some Impact case colors won’t work on some iPhones. Pink won’t work on mine. LOL! Anyone else seen that?
Thanks for your review. Personally I don’t care that much about the fit, the silicone case I have on my 3GS right now is kinda loose and it’s never really been a problem it still protected my phone when I dropped it.
I like this case, it seems “bouncy” and protects the top/bottom front of the phone.
@Nightbird If you really need a holster, check out the Defender series and although it’s big, it’s not giant and it is really protective
@Nightbird Hey, no problem. Have you tried looking into the Otterbox Commuter Series Case? I am not sure if it works with holsters but it does provide additional shock protection for falls. Let me know if I can help anymore.
@TekBeatTV No problem..thanks for trying. Since it seems I will not be able to find a holster this will fit into..do you recommend any smaller protective cases that will offer the same level of protection of the Impact..but are still small enough to fit into a regular holster case? I see all these hard poly carbonate cases being sold..but although I see how they would prevent a dent..what about the force going into the phone from a fall?
@Nightbird Sorry not that I know of at the moment
. Sorry i could not help more.
Does anyone know of a holster that is big enough to hold an iphone with this otterbox impact case on? I can’t find one, so please hit reply here and let me know, thank you!!!
@guitarrocker0725 It was compatible with both, hope this helps!
Is this the AT&T iphone or Verizon?
