I’ve used Lifeproof cases on my IPhones and Galaxy’s for the last ten years or so and I haven’t been able to find anything better (believe me, I’ve tried to find a less expensive case that works as well).
I work in the mechanical trades, so my phone stays in my front pants pocket along with keys and tools and whatever else I stick in there while working from a ladder or climbing through a mechanical space. The Lifeproof Fre case, with the built-in screen protector and totally enclosed construction, has always kept my phones in mint condition in spite of occasional drops from varying heights and sharp objects scratching across the surface.
The case that I just bought was the second one for my IPhone 7. The first one lasted me about two years before the microphone diaphragms got dirty and brittle enough to distort and muffle my voice so people complained that they couldn’t hear me. I’ve noticed that this seems to be the average expiration date on this case for me at least, between 18-24 months before it needs replacement.
When I pulled the old case off the IPhone, the phone looked brand new, completely and utterly scratch and damage free (as they always do) in spite of the abuse the case showed.
Personally, I probably wouldn’t recommend this case for someone who works at an office or other low-damage potential job and doesn’t need the dust-and-waterproofing and impact protection because there is a slight reduction in screen sensitivity especially when the protector starts to get scratched up, and you might experience microphone and speaker muffling depending on how you tend to hold the phone.
In summary, although I always wince at the price of this case when I need one, I can’t deny that it’s well worth it in my case.

Weak Spot is Charging Jack Lid Latch
Second one with exact same failure in normal use after a couple months. No drops or abuse. The rim fatigues and breaks where the cover latches. It should be molded from nylon, ABS or Lexan or some other plastic with ability to give a little. It fractures like it’s brittle. The rest of the case is great but for an expensive case this should be fixed. I will see if they will replace this one again otherwise back to remove some stars.Update- Amazon did not allow another replace but links to Otterbox site. This case is discontinued. They replaced with a Defender case which is not waterproof. Customer covers shipping 11 bucks. Still too much every couple months. Last Otterbox for me when this one breaks. There are other brands.
