Review: OtterBox Commuter Series Case for iPhone 4

OtterBox has made a name for itself as the de facto heavy-duty protective case company, and the Defender Series Case is among the best we have seen. Moving into models aimed at everyday users then makes sense — not everybody needs the most durable case in the world, but a thinner, lighter, easier to install option with the same pedigree is a good idea. One of those options is the Commuter Series Case ($35) for iPhone 4.

Combining two layers of case protection with a clear screen film layer, it protects most of the iPhone 4 against damage at a more reasonable yet still somewhat high price.

While not nearly as protective as its sibling Defender, Commuter still stands out among the crowd in terms of shielding.
