"""I've only had the case for a week, but I love it. It is slim, so doesn't increase the size of my iPhone at all. Really cute color. The only thing is it is extremely smooth, which I assumed it would be, hence why I didn't take off in rating. If you have it on a smooth surface it will slide like crazy. Great case, so far. Also, I was told by someone while I was out that they dropped their phone with this case and it broke after a couple times. To this, this case is not meant to protect it from crazy falls or anything, which I am aware. It's meant to look cute, but also protect it from everyday scratches from your purse or pocket. If I wanted to be able to run it over by a car and it still be fine I would have bought the case that doubles the size of the iPhone. 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. http://www.blacksprintfriday.us http://www.blacktabletfriday.us http://www.blacktoysfriday.us http://www.blacktreadmillfriday.us http://www.blackverizonfriday.us
