Is this better than the Spigen Tough Armor?

Well that I don't know but design and color match wise it is slim and gorgeous!

Defender is thicker w/ built in screen protector. Hard plastic on the inside silicon on the outer layer. And it comes with a belt clip / phone stand. Commuter has no built in screen protector silicon is on the inside hard plastic outer layer. And no clip I have cracked my screen (not severly) even w/ the commuter

No, it is a just a small bit thicker. Please note that the buttons on this one are much more accessible, easy to use, and lighter to operate so you don't have to press them so hard. I have both cases. I've stopped using Spigen, although they are good too, except for the aforementioned.

I'm not sure. I have a Spigen Tough Armor on mine & the screen protector fits perfectly. And from what I have "heard" & "seen" in other comments is that the Spigen Tough Armor & Otterbox Commuter Series is the same size & fit.

I had the Otterbox Defender and I prefer my Lifeproof alot more. It is definitely less bulky and the quality of the phone calls is just fine, you don't notice a difference.

Never used the Tech Armor but plenty of others. The iSmooth is the clearest and one of the most durable, but I've had issues with them peeling off just from sliding in my pocket. I've gone thru 3 of them in 5 months.

I'll measure if you want, but the defender seems like a large phone case. The armor seems like a toughbook tablet. Oh and while the defender is not waterproof and all kinds of stuff gets behind the lame screen protector, at least people can hear you when you call them which is more than i can say for the armor. If you are willing to have a non-waterproof case "Ballistic" brand case for $25 is way superior to Defender.

No, the commuter screen protector is more flexible therefore it appears to be not as thick. Seems to offer very good if not same protection though. The commuter is lighter packing, not so plasticky. The front has a cleaner view of the entire face and the defender covers the top and bottom quarters. Thanks for asking. Good Luck! :)

I'm sorry, but I have no idea if Spigen will replace it if it breaks, but it's worth a shot to ask in the event that happens. I recently had an issue with another product, and after an email that company sent me a replacement with no issue. As for this case, I am still using it and switching between it and the Spigen Tough Armor case. Both are awesome, and I haven't had any issues with either. But the Spigen website is www.spigen.com. Best of luck.

Commuter has a cruddy screen protector that is a separate piece that you'll throw away after a week and buy one from skinomi or zagg. The defender has a screen protector as part of the case permanently. It feels like a garbage bag. It's annoying. I'd get the commuter and a Skinomi or zagg.

I'm not familiar enough with the otterbox models to make a comparison. It is definitely less bulky than the defender. For the price, I think the Ballistic Aspira is as much case as anyone needs unless they are going to drop it in water. Hope this helps.

Slim is not good if you drop a lot. The slim is good for short drops and protects the edges and back from dings with the premise of keeping the case smaller. If your clumsy with the phone go for the tough armor. (I loved the slim armor btw)

Personally I think this shield is excellent, and I have a minimal case, the Serendipity by Otterbox as opposed to the Defender, which is sturdier and bigger, and I've dropped mine without even a scratch or anything. It is tempered glass and very strong and also so easy to clean.

Defender has bigger shell hence bulkier. Usually come with protective lens (made of clear plastic) so you don't need another screen protector.

it doesnt compare. At all. I have the "fre" lifeproof and it gives complete protection. I can use it underwater without being nervous about whether it will get water damage. I am not too worried when I drop my phone with a lifeproof. It offers great protection, but its not as slim as this one. Do not buy this one if youre looking for great protection. This one should be bought if you want slight protection with a much smaller feel like you barely recognize there is a case on it.
