OtterBox iPhone 12 & iPhone 12 Pro Commuter Series Case - Black, Slim & Tough, Pocket-Friendly, with Port Protection

Very sturdy case which provides great protection for your phone including the function buttons on sides. The last one I had lasted over 2 years. I highly recommend this case especially for people who are a bit rough with the handling of their phones.

It's beautiful, and it's strong and solidly built...such good quality! Super happy with it!

Bought this back in August of 2021 and just recently bought a new one after 1 1/2 years. I have a iPhone 12 and suppose to fit the 12 and 12 pro. Went with this case cause i wanted something reliable but not bulky. The case is a nice size, easy to slide in and out my pocket. I’d say it’s a Good size for most people that the phone still feels comfortable in your hand. I was very hesitant about how bulky it would be and wasn’t disappointed. The rubber layer, on the buttons it’s pretty thick and i personally struggled a bit sometimes to get it to work that i was patient enough to wait for it break in that i started to using my nail and ended up digging into the rubber of all buttons and even the socket to switch to vibrate had to dig in there to switch it. Overtime the rubber does start wearing out so dust/dirt will tend to get in between the case and the phone and will potentially scratch the phone as it did to mine. It’s only two small a scratched at the edge of the top of the phone. Also the port protection probably ripped off after about 4-6 months? But that’s due to me using my phone so much and having to charge it and still using it which made it wear out faster so i think for someone who’s not always on there phone it’ll definitely last longer than it did for me. The plastic is good but could be better. If you drop it in the bottom the plastic is the first to take the impact which will probably crack as it did for me on two spot. Can’t recall when the crack by the camera happen as i only recently noticed it when buy this for the second time. The first crack in the bottom corner happened around the 1 year mark but if you look at my photos i can easily pop it back in place and keep using it without issue. There’s also a small thin plastic that goes in front of the port protection that broke off around 6 months of having it. The plastic is pretty durable, you’d really have to put some force on it to dig into the plastic so small scratches are not really a thing to worry about. If your responsible with not dropping your phone, almost any line of work that’s not construction, i definitely suggest this case if you don’t want a bulky case. For those who work in a more active line of work like huge construction job sites, i recommend upgrading to “DEFENDER” series case. Those are the cases my job has on our work phones and they’re pretty bulky. If you’re someone who’s slightly clumsy, i suggest this case. Overall a great case if you want something reliable, looks great and isn’t bulky. This was based off my experience and other will have their own that probably won’t align with mine. I looked at the reviews before buying it the first time and some people broke it within 3 months from what i recall. it still depends how active your are and what environment your in. If your a office worker, this case will most likely last you a few years compares to someone who’s in a environment that can get pretty filthy and is fast pace. It also depends on how you take care of you things. It’s going to happen to everyone at some point so if you really want more protection with sacrifice of it’s look and size, i suggest upgrade to the defender series or get two cases and swap them for work and off work. Silly but it’s an investment on saving your self the hassle of having to fix a phone or a get a new phone. Update May 2024: Recently had to replace my case again this time it was pretty beat up. Same broken spots as before. Lasted me a good year and honestly could’ve gone longer but looked too messy to be carrying around. I still give this case 5/5 stars. I drive for work and visited construction sites and move heavy equipment and often have my phone on me and risk dropping it a lot. Luckily I’m not clumsy but have dropped it from inside the truck on to the floor outside a couple of times. Maybe like a 4ft drop? Takes the impact no problem, i don’t drop my phone to often and even so i don’t walk around carelessly thinking this case is going to protect it. Even with a bulkier case, it’s important to remember phones still can have internal damage so don’t expect it to completely protect your phone. At the end of the day you are your phones best protection. As i mentioned i recently upgraded cases and did not purchase this case again. Reason being that I’m pretty good with not dropping my phone and this is a bit too bulky to support wireless battery back charging. As i bought a wireless battery pack and could only use it if i remove the case which then I’d have to carry separately in my pocket. It works with a wireless desk charger, just have to position it right. Not sure about other types of wireless desk chargers but the one i have at home definitely needs to be positioned correctly to pick it up. I still recommend this case for anyone looking for extra protection but something not to bulky. I have changed to the “jetech” magnetic case. its a very thin case and will eventually make a review on that.

I just purchased this for a 2nd time for my father's phone, after 5 years. He has dropped his phone several times and it still works. The corner of it finally broke away so it was time for a new one. A lesser case would not have lasted this long and likely would not have protected his phone as well!

I’m a senior citizen and didn’t realize most of the surface is smooth when I purchased it. I have trouble grasping/holding onto small items so this didn’t work for me. I love the color. It’s very pretty. I needed the other Otter box that I had previously that was easy for me to hold onto. I gave it 4 stars as feel it would be great for a younger person and it fit my phone great. Just not for me.

Very pleased with both quality and price. Not bulky. It definitely will fit in your pocket.

Great and strong for the price. It's a bit heavy but I have already dropped my phone a few times and it's working.

I have a tendency to drop my phone on its corner so a spongy case was on top of my requirements. This Otterbox seems to fit the bill with a softer inside layer and a exoskeleton that keeps the inner layer firmly in place. There is decently raised edge around the screen so unless you drop the phone face down on some rocks, your screen is probably safe from drops. The main cameras are well protected by virtue of the thick case unless you just happen to the drop the phone camera first onto rocks or a small edge. The reset and volume buttons are well aligned to the phone's. I had no trouble actuating the buttons through the case. The mute switch is a little hard to reach with my fat fingers, however, because the case is on the thicker side. There is a little flap that covers the lightning port. It's a small nuisance to open the flap and close the flap but like many people, I keep my phone in my pocket and the charging port has an incredible ability to catch lint. This flap should help prevent lint... until I forget to close it and tear it off. Speaking of charging, this Otterbox is not "MagSafe" and will not stick strongly to a MagSafe charger or mount. However, an iPhone12 in this case will still align to a MagSafe a charger and charge. There is some texturing on the edges of the phone that I hope will let me hold onto the phone a bit more securely. I seem to touch them whenever I hold onto the phone so the Otterbox folks seem to have put a bit of thought into their positioning. All in all, I think this case should last as long as my phone. All the bits seem to be natively black so I'm hoping there will be no paint chipping/pealing with time.

Gute Qualität, sehr stabil allerdings auch sehr schwer.

Sehr gut.

Se hai una cover otterbox il tel e’ al sicuro.. mio figlio lo fa cadere tutte le sere😂

I bought this for my gf so she can use it on our bike tours. She likes it a lot. And the pink is just enough girly girl for her. It’s not too bulky, to her surprise I might add. With the prices of iPhones, this is a solid investment for real.

Vale demasiado la pena invertir en este case, de muy buena calidad, resistente y lo mejor en protección. Recomendable, queda muy bien y el teléfono está súper protegido.
