Will this offer better protection then the orange bumper that cam on my kids edition from Best Buy?

Hello, M. Denise Cranford,This bumper is very sturdy and cushioned. It will protect your tablet. I have an 8 year old and she sometimes drops thing, as a child would. And the tablet is always well protected. The sides are bumpy and if your tablet fall face down, it will protect the screen. I saw the orange bumper that the yellow galaxy comes with and it's not as thick and bumpy as this one. I hope this an wears your question. Good day :)

This is a very thick bumper. Im not sure how thick the best buy one is... but I absolutely love this one for my kids!

I don't think it offers better protection, however, it does cover the middle button that the bumper doesn't cover. I purchased it for a color change purpose but still wanted the protection of the orange bumper.

I have no complaints. It came in Otterbox packaging and looked to be exactly like the one I saw in Bestbuy. I guess only time will tell.

It would cover more than half of it which is enough to protect the front side in case your kids bump into it.

As I understand it, the Otterbox cases contain a silicone inner layer with either a polycarbonate backing or a complete polycarbonate over-layer. They also appear to come with a screen protector for the device. This product is simply a silicone skin layer, so it follows that it wouldn't be as strong or protective as an otterbox. However, it does provide a layer of protection against potential nicks, dings and minor drops. The device would probably still get damaged if a toddler dropped it from a height, stomped on it or threw it in the toilet (that's what I picture toddlers doing with everything). Clear screen protectors are not included. As I understand it, the Otterbox cases contain a silicone inner layer with either a polycarbonate backing or a complete polycarbonate over-layer.

Correct. I recommend the MediaFire back protector for the other side, but this product is by far the best for the front and I could not be happier with it!

You would need to contact Otterbox to see if they will cover it. I bought mine straight through them and they covered all claims. It's only good for a year from time of purchase I've learned. They have replaced mine THREE times due to the front plate braking. It is the worse case I have every had.

Yes, bumpers allow to defend the screen to a degree. But recommend a screen protector.

The whole idea is to get rid of the "Hard Case". The bumper will only fit over the iPhone 5s. (they also have made them for 4 & 4s).You might take a risk for approx. $1.26.

Screen protector should not be a factor since the case does not go over the screen at all. I do have to remove my bumper when using this case. I love it!

Assuming a bumper is silicone-based and that you expect it to stretch over the clear plastic, it might work. And if you cover the see-through plastic using an opaque silicone product, you will not be able to see the phone's aesthetic body!! The Clear plastic cover mainly lets you keep admiring the phone's aesthetics and in the process prevents imminent damage mainly to the phone base and sides when you set your phone on a table, etc. Hope it helps!!

That's a great question, because the cover itself is fantastic. I definitely would look into purchasing additional bumpers if sold separately at a reasonable cost.

I think it depends on the age of the kids. For younger kids i would probably get something a little thicker and has protection for the screen. This case doesnt offer any screen protection at all.

Bumper. The ringke may be better if your hard on your phone because it does protect the back, but the feel and finish of e bumper is definitely worth the extra money I think.

It's just like a rubber one.nit back but depends on your child. If you know they drop things easily I would suggest another bumper

Yes , I ordered it back in may to keep my bumper like new. It worked to a good extent, as my car was rear ended a month later. Saved my bumper from even more damage. The damage was minimal. Not as ugly as the Bumper Bully. Can save your bumper from a lot of scratches.

Yes it protects the back. Since owning the case, I have dropped the phone twice from standing height and the case did its job. Some reviews stated the bumper edge started to peel off. I haven't had that experience yet. I have no regrets purchasing this case.
