Is this a real Case-Mate Tough case? The photo shows a Case-Mate, but the page header says "Custom TPU black iPhone ".

To be honest I'm not sure. I no longer have that case. I gave it to my brother-in-law after I purchased another case. I do have to say I liked how slim that case was compared to my newer one. It was sturdy. One day I had my phone on the roof of my car, it somehow knocked off onto the pavement. The phone was fine. No scratches or issues. I would buy the case again.

Yes, It has a hard metal wrap around backer with a soft rubber liner. Protects very well.

It says "case mate" on the case itself. We bought two and have been very happy with them.

I am wondering the same thing...Otterbox doesn't even list a "hybrid" case on it's website. Sounds kind of fishy...

I'm wondering the same thing. It looks exactly like the one I have right now, except mine's black. And I bought it over a year and half ago...cheaper too. Looks like they just named it?..

The purple Commuter Case I bought was not a real Otterbox. If you look inside the rubber inner case and it says "patent pending" in tiny lettering towards the bottom it is not legit. In China they make replica packaging or just reuse real packaging for the fake ones. They still pretty much do the same thing as the real ones you just aren't paying the high price or buying from and American company. I'm fairly certain Otterbox uses Chinese manufacturers anyways so whatever...

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!

Yup its the original. I actually ended up getting a new phone. So I didnt get to use mine. I need to ship mine back. Any takers.

The one I received had the apple symbol and logo on the metal magnet part that attaches the cover. It looks legit!

The one we received was a true otterbox. My husband has had three now and loves them. Good luck with your hunt for one.

Hello, NO when I received the case it was a fake and was not worth the 40$ and am unable to get my money back so I would find a dealer and pay full price unless you can be certain that one you buy for less the full price is going to be an original and not a copy

It was for a iPhone 5 phone and it was a hard case with the logo on it. It was a gift for a friend's daughter and delivered directly to her so I did not actually see the case to answer your other questions.

The one I received was in fact a real OtterBox case. Hope this helps you decide!

Mine has the logo on it as well but it's really not gaudy or anything IMO. I really like the case for the price.

No it is not. But do still try to get one! This armor is the best case anyone could get out there. I've had mine for over a year now and it looks as good as new. No matter what you'll do to it. Not only it will always look great but the fit in your hand it just amazing!

Gary, I am unsure what you mean by 'Case'? It didn't come with a case. The casing is black though. Sorry to sound flip just trying to be specific/helpful.

The black & white one i got is the exact same one from the apple store, just way cheaper price. It's not counterfeit, definitely the Speck product it says it is :)

It looks real, with the front cover logo and all, but the size is slightly off and the construction is very poor. The case began to fray within a week of my starting to use it. I was sorry I purchased it, and you will be too. Amazon should not allow sellers to mislead consumers by selling apparent Apple products which are not. Or maybe they were mistakes from an original Apple run, that it would not sell itself and fobbed off to some jobber. Who knows? I also don't know if the seller licensed the Apple logo, but if it did not, Amazon is now fully on notice that it may be abetting trademark infringement. Very disappointed!

I don't think it's real. I bought the legit case at the iPhone store and it felt sturdier and had a different design on the bottom of the case for the ports. See photos I posted.
