Compatible with iPhone 4S? Does anyone know if this will be compatible with the iPhone 4S?I bought the 4S case directly from the Otterbox website for $48 with a coupon code for 10% off + free shipping from Retailmenot, which totally isn't worth it if I could just buy this iPhone 4 case for way less than half the price.Thanks for your feedback.

I just bought the black iPhone 4s. I bought the Otterbox Defender case for the old iPhone4 and it works just fine. No problems with calls or taking pictures.

I ordered two of the 4 cases hoping it will fit, with your review I feel better knowing that it seems to work just as fine. Thanks for the info, you're a great help!

there is a banner on their site that says it does not (http://www.otterbox.com/iPhone-4-Defender-Series-Case/APL2-I4XXX,default,pd.html?dwvar_APL2-I4XXX_color=20&start;=2&cgid;=defender-series-cases)

Not sure though- thought the main changes were the same ones made on the white and verizon iphone 4, and this one is compatible with those.

I also bought a black iPhone 4S. The older Otterbox Defender iPhone 4 case fits and it functions just fine.

I too took a chance and bought the Defender (iPhone 4) case for my Verizon black iPhone 4S, and it works just fine for me. Why did everyone blindly believe what Otterbox was saying when it was clear from Apple and everyone else that the phone is nearly identical on the outside? Still, I can't blame Otterbox for trying to get an extra 40 bucks out of all the people who pre-ordered... very clever marketing trick!

Nope doesnt work. I called customer support thinking this was just a gimmick to get people to buy the newer version, but it turns out there are major changes.The increased image sensor in the camera calls for a larger cut out, and to stop the flash from washing out images.The proximity sensor was also moved, which would then be blocked by the old defender series case. The guy on the phone told me the phone would technically fit, but not function properly during phone calls or while trying to take pictures.

Just want to let everyone know that It seems like it will work on the Black Iphone 4S just fine. I've installed it and everything lines up. The proximity sensor works for phone function (it goes black when covered). As for the flash, it seems to be ok. Pictures I took look fine so far. For me I am happy, especially at $16 for the case.

I don't have to remove my otter box case on my iPhone 4s and it also works w my daughters' iPhones 5 and 5s- it fits fine. They each have one of these aux cables.I hope my answer was helpful to you :)

Apple sells a Universal dock adapter for the iphone 4. It costs $9 for a pack of 3. I use this adapter for my iphone 4 and it fits perfectly. I bought mine from the apple store but you can by it from apple online or over the phone.You won't be able to put the phone on the dock w/o taking w/e case you have off first. Another option you have is to dock your phone without an adapter but it isn't too secure, this might damage your phone or the dock itself. Some people prefer this because they can leave their case on and dock it. I would check out the adapter from apple. Cheers. Apple sells a Universal dock adapter for the iphone 4.

Hi - Could either of you please recommend what is a good buy for the iPhone 3G"S"? Am confused with all that's out there. I was about to buy this when I saw this thread. Thanking you in advance.

Yes, it works great. The dock adapter plates are formed to fit the iPhone 1, 2, and 3 without a case on the phone. The only caveat is that it does not include an fitted dock plate for the iPhone 4 / 4s, so you have to use it without an adapter plate. This doesn't affect the functionality though, just the way it sits in the dock. I have a case on my iPhone 4s anyway so I'd have to use it without an adapter plate regardless.I will confirm Mitchell V. Grossman's point that it is quite bright. I usually have to turn it away from me in the bed, or face the other direction when sleeping. The button placement takes some getting used to, but after a week or two you won't have a problem.

I have an IPhone 4s and have no problems It fits great and I wonder if you have a different version or not but my phone fits great and I have it on now as I answer this question. Maybe you should Send an E-mail to Otter box By the way you do have a defender otter box correct?

I too searched for a cable replacement until I saw the post about calling the company for a replacement. The retractable one mentioned here does fit however mine would hang and not retract well. It was also too short for me. I found this one- Kensington Car Audio AUX Cable for iPhone/iPod, including iPhone 4S- and it fits perfectly and the cord is much more durable than the other. Just another option to consider. Amazon link: Kensington Car Audio AUX Cable for iPhone/iPod, including iPhone 4S

I've heard that there are compatibility issues with some of the iPhones (namely the 3GS). I just wanted to double check that there is no noise/interference for this, for the iPhone 4, before I purchase it as a gift for my sister. Can you confirm this?

Hi ArmandoThis is not compatible with the iPhone 4S.Please let us know if there is anything else we can assist you with.Marc

I personally think this is the best case I've had for the iPhone 4. I've had problems in the past with otter box cases but otter box has always sent me replacement parts to fix them. I've had my case like this one for awhile now and it still fits fine even with my 6 year old's treatment of it.

I've had this case for about six months. I think it's great. I haven't had any issues with it. Microphone works fine. I have a 4s too. Not sure what you're issue is.

Ben, this can't work with any iPhone my man. I definitely would not recommend it. I purchased this case and followed the directions very closely when using it to protect my iPhone. I even tested it in the sink first... However, after having it in no more that 3 feet of ocean water for a few mins, water seeped in and damaged my phone. There is no way to get ahold of the manufacturer that I can see, not contact listed on their site, etc. Amazon was kind enough to refund me the cost of the case, but I was left with a damaged iPhone 5. Highly recommend you go with another product.

This particular one is for the iPhone 5, so it won't work with a 4 or 4s because they are physically smaller phones. They do make otter boxes for those phones though, so try searching for one by model number.

I have the iPhone 4s and bought an actual otterbox. Like the case very much, but I absolutely have air bubbles under the screen protector. To Ryan: The otterbox hard case (inside the silicone) has a built in screen protector.

I did find a link on logitech's site (dated 8/2010) that confirmed "the new s715i" it will work with an iPhone 4. The box arrived from amazon and does NOT have an iPhone 4 icon (has the 3, 3G, plain old original, however, when I opened it, it did work with my iPhone 4 (it's a universal dock, fairly forgiving. My husband had the first iPhone with the free bumper and that sat in there as well, no problem. Because of "the new" language (is there an old s715i that doesn't work with the iPhone 4?), look for the 2010 copyright if you buy this elsewhere. Amazon is clearly shipping the current version but a store might have older stock sitting there. I think the 2010 copyright would mean you were safe.

I contact Otter Box and Verizon Customer Service and they told me that the current Defender Case will not fit the Verizon iphone exactly. I just ordered the new version from Otter Box that will fit both. I had to pay full price...don't think Amazon is carrying the new version yet.

In my personal opinion this is the only true "iPhone Killer" I've ran across. Like the popularity of the iPod and iTouch, of course accessories are not as abundant as the Apple Products (only, due to pure marketing by Nokia). Please share your opinion regarding this subject.
