I am a big fan of the i4 design and feel when it is naked. However, just came too close to dropping it several times. I looked at several cases, including a Belkin bumper case with clear back I had laying around. I decided to go with the Otterbox Defender. And YES, I had worries about size, feel, etc... But honestly, after installing and using for a few days, it is very appealing, not to mention the protection is second to none. The holster is somewhat bulky but overall I am pleased with the case. I have larger hands so this case is not for everyone, but it works for me.
