 Paid for itself :UPDATEDFeb 19, 2011
By J. Batte
"Batteman87"
I have a Verizon iPhone 4 and ordered this from OtterBox before they were out at other retail stores. Fits great with no wiggle room inside. Great feeling case, doesn't feel like it's a fish and wants to jump right out of your hand. Easy access to all ports. The front pieces that protects the screen DOES NOT hinder any finger gestures what-so-ever. My OtterBox has paid for itself already when I had my hands full as I was getting out of the car and simply I forgot it was in my lap... after the solid hit to the cement and heart started beating again, I brought myself to assess the damage. There was NONE! Still works like a charm like it did right out of the box. No cracked screen/glass. The OtterBox is without a mark as well. OtterBox saved the day. I researched my purchase first and was sold when it protected an iPhone from a 23 store drop into concret. (Search YouTube). It's better t protect your investment now or pay more later if it's damaged.
EDIT: This OtterBox Defender still works like a Champ! I did want to update that it works for the Verizon iPhone 4.... NOT the new iPhone 4S. While the iPhone 4S fits in the case, Apple has moved the sensor and the phone will have screen brightness issues. For the iPhone 4S the OtterBox company has released a new Defender series that has a larger opening for the front and rear sensor/camera. It's universal and will work with BOTH iPhone 4 & iPhone 4S on ALL CARRIERS.

Universal Design Fits Verizon iPhone 4 PerfectlyMar 04, 2011
By Stacey
I have been searching for the Otterbox Defender specifically for the Verizon iPhone 4 and have yet to find it locally at any retail store. Since it is $50 at Otterbox directly (plus shipping) I waited until Amazon offered the universal design. I was hesitant as another reviewer said it did not fit the Verizon model. I believe that reviewer ordered it before the universal one was offered as this DOES FIT the Verizon iPhone. I tried the AT&T one in Best Buy and you are not able to mute the phone with that model unless you have microscopic fingers. This universal design fits the verizon phone perfectly and I have no trouble at all muting the phone.
I can't attest to it's durability yet as I only got it yesterday but it is a solid case and has screen protection as well.
Hope this helps if you are looking for a case for the Verizon iPhone.

Excellent protective case for Verizon iPhone 4 with some caveats.Apr 29, 2011
By Joe
*Updated 11/19/11
First and foremost, if it's solid protection you're after (and if you're prone to dropping your phone) you need a hard case for the iPhone because it's made of glass. It's a great phone functionally, but if you drop it as is, you're done. Many have those slim, trendy skin cases but they will not protect the phone against a drop even if they look cool. Apple and Verizon don't seem to be up front about how delicate the phone is.
I researched cases quite a bit and this one kept coming up. Highly protective, and it fits my Verizon phone perfectly. Make sure you get the UNIVERSAL case for Verizon so it fits. The built in screen protector is crystal clear and DOES NOT LEAVE watermarks or streaks like other cases with a built in screen do.
Now, some caveats: First, it's a little tricky to put the case on if you attempt it without directions. It's a plastic shell that snaps on and then the hard rubber gets wrapped around it. I strongly suggest you use the web video link that is printed on the inside of the box. Second, the flap on the bottom for the power jack was a little annoying at first. It took me a while to figure out how to seal it correctly. Lastly, this case WILL turn your phone into a brick. If you want something very slim that will maintain the aesthetics of the phone, this isn't for you, but that's a trade off you have to accept to have hardcore protection. I can fit it in my pocket, but it's a project getting it in and out, and it's a big lint collector. I'm thinking of trying a slimmer case and risking some protection because the bulk is getting to me. In summary, a great case for solid protection if you're willing to sacrifice sleekness and aesthetics.

This Otterbox Case is Great for a Black iPhone 4SOct 16, 2011
By J K
I preordered a black iPhone 4S so that it would be delivered on the Oct. 14th release date of the iPhone 4S. Apple's Customer Service representatives repeately assured me that the iPhone 4S is exactly the same on the outside as the older iPhone 4. I wanted to put a good case on the iPhone 4S when I received it, so I ordered in advance this universal Otterbox Defender case for the older iPhone 4, even though Otterbox's website stated that their iPhone 4 Defender cases will not fit the new iPhone 4S. I suspect that Otterbox states this just to get you to pay more for their official iPhone 4S case, because the iPhone 4 universal Defender case fits the new iPhone 4S just fine. I agree with a previous reviewer that the ring/silent switch on the side of the iPhone is a little offset in the rectangular hole of the plastic frame of the case, but the switch is not blocked by the plastic frame at all. The other holes (for the camera lens, proximity sensor, speaker, etc.) in the case are aligned fine. Also, the hole at the top edge of the case is for the pinhole microphone, NOT the headphone jack. You're supposed to access the headphone jack by lifting up the silicone flap that covers it.
FYI, the pinhole microphone is there to help the iPhone distinguish the difference between your voice on a phone call, and background noise that needs to be filtered out of phone conversations.
I think that this iPhone 4 case actually protects an iPhone 4S a little better than Otterbox's official iPhone 4S case, because the front and back holes in the plastic frame of the iPhone 4S case is bigger than it needs to be.
I am surprised that an Oct 15, 2011 review stated that the iPhone 4 case does not fit the iPhone 4S. But I don't work for Otterbox.

 Not for White iPhone 4!May 20, 2011
By Jeanne Maher
"craftymom"
I was about to buy this but wanted to read more about it on the OtterBox website. They caution against buying this for the WHITE iPhone:
"Not compatible with WHITE iPhone 4. Due to a slight change of the proximity sensor for the white Apple iPhone 4, the OtterBox Defender Series, Commuter Series, Reflex Series and Impact Series cases will not work with this new device."
