Just bought a pristine used Galaxy S7 and want to get a good case to protect against drops. What manufacturer/model would those with experience recommend or not?

Otterbox, I have had it on my S4 now for quite a few years. The snap for the case broke just from use but it protected my phone just fine.
Then again I don't drop it in the toilet like my daughter

Even the cheaper chinese copies are good. I think its just as important to have a case that gives you a secure grip so you don't drop it.

Well, found a Lady on FB Marketplace selling a couple of new, old stock, supposedly genuine Otterbox Defender S7 cases for cheap. Crossed my fingers and sent her $18 via PP for the two shipped via Priority Mail. She said she got them in a Amazon Auction lot of six Otterbox cases and she was selling everything except the three that fit her families iphones.Originally posted by Sierra57"We have four boxes with which to defend our Freedoms: the Soap box, the Ballot box, the Jury box, and the Cartridge box" - Ed HowdersheltComment

LifeProof makes some great cases too. They have saved our Iphones several times from accidental dunkings in hot tub, drops onto pavement from ladder, etc. They also allow my wife who is a RN to clean her phone as necessary in hospital environment.Comment

Otterbox is the defacto, but was terrible on the touchscreen, and didn't sit against it on my V20, always had a bubble/lift of the firm causing a glare addition.
I have been using China-cases for years, and at $4-$12, I always buy multiple when needed, but this has caused an issue as I keep finding cases for old phones...Comment

I had read a few negative reviews about poor touch screen sensitivity but my S7 with the Defender case has no issues there. The plastic screen protector seems prone to scratches. I guess if it gets too bad, one could cut it out with a exacto knife and just use a tempered glass protector. Case definitely adds some bulk but should do a good job protecting the phones glass front/back.Originally posted by Sierra57"We have four boxes with which to defend our Freedoms: the Soap box, the Ballot box, the Jury box, and the Cartridge box" - Ed HowdersheltComment

How's is the Otterbox holding up? I have the same phone and need a new case. My LifeProof has served me well but it has become really beat up. It did survive getting run over by a car.sigpic
