How is the protection level of this case for dropping the phone etc? My 4 year old is constantly stealing and dropping my phone...

This is not a case for protection, it's mostly for show. I'd get an otterbox if you're looking for that kind of protection.

The case is beautiful and I love it. That said, it is not designed for protection. If protection is what you need, I would recommend a more durable case. I hope this helps.

I work for Samsung I would suggest an outterbox. This is very cute but the phone can pop out if dropped hard enough.

I have dropped well my 3 year old has before and it protected the phone from any damages.

Yes. It protects very well. My girls are 2 and 5 and they have both dropped it and it's fine.

Quite a bit. I drop my phone all the time on hard surfaces an it's still in perfect condition. Obviously, it's not going to be as protective as a bulkier case, but it's really great given how thin it is.

I bought one of these for my son he is 7 drops it all the time. No issues with it coming off the phone or the phone breaking while in the case.we think It's a good case.

I feel that the boost case offers very good protection. We have 3 in our family, and have had no problems with any damage to phones, or with the case not holding up. I recently dropped my phone and it hit a sharp edge on landing. Made a small cut in the edge of the case, but phone was protected. The case is still functioning as before.

The case is good. I've dropped it 1 or 2 times, have plopped it on the desk & it's ok. The outter rubber case though doesn't fit well. It's constantly popping off the corners & it's not molded properly. I understand the budget oart as that's why I got this ine, but if you tend to drop your phone often I would spend a few more dollars & get a better one. I wouldn't recommend this one. Hope that helps your decision & good luck.

It is just scratch and mar protection. I haven't dropped my phone but this case will give medium protection from a 3 or 4 ft drop.

I have dropped mine a few times so far so good! the case is raised about the screen so it does protect it!

Hi. Our daughter (age 15) got this case. She really liked it, but she is kind of hard on things. The pearl came off pretty quickly. Then the lace started coming off, so she took it off. Recently, she dropped her phone, and now has a crack right down the middle of the screen. It could have been worse, I'm sure. She still uses the case. I hope this helps you. It wasn't as durable as some cases, but I think it probably did protect the phone from worse damage, not all damage.

I have the same issue, also the volume buttons have cracked and fallen off. and the case is now chipped and missing several pieces from it having fallen off the car cradle onto the cupholder (a heart stopping 6" fall). It's a shame this thing is considered a 'case' when it's much more fragile than the actual phone it's supposed to protect. The primary function of any 'case' should b protecting the phone from damage. given the reduced functionality of having limited access to the power and volume buttons I might throw this thing in the trash soon and go back to me previous normal plastic case.

It is not a tough case (it is plastic) but my toddler has thrown and dropped it a few times and the case took the brunt so my phone didn't have a dent or scratch. It was the only thing I could find to protect this style phone so I consider it my only line of defense.

It was a case for my daughter. It was very smooth and she never complained. We have 2 and they are very cute but not to be used for protecting phone. Hope this helps. Enjoy your day.

This is the perfect "Kid-friendly" case...an associate of mine bought this for his 2 year old who uses his tablet regularly. It's definitely kid-proof (drops...bumps...spills), but it's still impressive enough to take to his office. Hope this helps.

I am afraid that I have not seen the otterbox version but I do think this would be good for a younger child as it is easier to hold and protects well. Remember that screen would break if they smash it directly on screen but the rest is very well protected. My nephews (7,9,12) abused it and they are still alive and nook HD+ is still ticking along:) I think you would be pleased. Cheers

I drop this thing at least 3 times a day(most recently from 10 foot bleachers onto a concrete floor) and I have never had a problem. I do have a fairly pricey screen protector I got from ATT ($30 bucks but worth it) however. This case is really good and if you haven't already bought an otterbox, don't.

My son uses it for his ipod and it is very securely locked in. He runs around the neighborhood doing Nerf Wars with friends and has never had a problem. It's never fallen out or gotten damaged. I imagine if the gun is actually dropped, that it is not that protected just like if the phone itself is dropped. But for just playing, it is protected.

yes it is I have five kids so obviously small spills we learned quickly although one of my children jumped in the river when we were fishing he is only four so we had to jump in after him and the phone was fine when we had got him out of the water just make sure you do the test it tells you before you place your phone in it. it is an awesome case been threw a lot and my phone is still fine it covers everything for a year but theft as long as you register it worth the buy
