More durable and sturdy, scratch resistant and sensitivity are about the same.

The lifeproof my grandson has, very nice lighter etc. The Otterbox Armor is heavy, bulky but much stronger, his lifeproof is not totally water proof, it can take a soda spill or some rain or snow, the otterbox can keep your phone dry for 30 mins underwater. I bought it because I dropped one in lake at boat ramp, and went under wading fishing in a swollen river, Two phones destroyed.

I found at the be far superior in quality, durability, and customer support which is very important. Try contacting Lifeproof about any support and they will spend more time trying to not support you then support you! I found out the hard way life proof only honors warenty if you purchase directly from them. If you want to see how durable the armor ones are go to YouTube and search on them. See the crazy stuff that has been done to them. I would of killed my phone easily 12-15 times now if I didn't have the case. The touchscreen is fine my daughters play all the games with no comaints and I can hear every call just fine. Obviously it would be louder with the case off but that is to be expected. I have them on all my phones now. I hope this helps.

otterbox will better protect your phone from drops but the life proof is good around water and spills

Yes but it sucks does not compare to Lifeproof. I got life proof and it is the best will never go with another case again

Yes to scratches on the back and sides, as well as the screen, if the cover is closed (I would also recommend a screen protector - I have the ZAGG InvisibleSHIELD). Good for small falls (1-3ft), but if you're looking for something that can withstand regular falls or ones that may occur in outdoor environments regularly, I'd recommend the LifeProof case.

The Case buy for other person, but she told me that Not.The case is similar a lifeproof case.Note: The Armor isn't the WATERPROOF as Lifeproof.The screen is exposed. Armor haven't the protective film (plastic foil) as for example in OtterboxThe Armor is a Excellent Protector Case, I have a for IPAD and never has scratched the screen.

I'm not sure because I haven't used life proof but the screen protector works great haven't had any issues.

Lifeproof is a decent case, but since I had that on my iPhone 4, and now with the iPhone 5 I have Casemate, the difference is day and night.Life proof is well, ...almost sound proof as well, I found that out just as clearly as you did. Vents at the mic end of the case ensure every conversation is clear. You'll be happy with the thin but protective case too. I love mine!!

Don't know about lifeproof, I have an CellTO case from amazon and it works fine with it. Sory can't be of more help.

I think this is the knockoff, quality of packaging done even nicely than original with OWNER'S MANUAL wich says that "All LifeProof products are backed by a 1-year warranty. Product warranty only covers the LifeProof product - it does not cover any non-Lifeproof product or device", however the case itself about 1/32" thicker than original, missing removable inner liner with the picture of powered on iphone and olso missing sticker over Touch ID , cleaning liquid and rag

Yes! I've had my skin onto lifeproof case for 9 months now and it's not come off yet! I put my phone through all sorts of water too.

Michael, I had to switch to the Lifeproof Box for my phone. Yep it's expensive and I had to save to get it, but it is worth it. The case is very nice when your phone fits.

I have not had any problem with the protective touch screen. It has just the right amount of sensitivity. I am 110% satisfied with this OutterBox.

The hard plastic is resistant to any scratches, I have had the white one for three months. The hard rubber is thought to get off once in place but does not scratch or peal off. Know that there is no screen protector. That said, I love this case

Bulkier Less refined. The water resistant nature of the life box is probably the biggest reason for the bulk but it just feels a lot cheaper and less form fitting. otterbox fit makes it more a solid phone than an obvious case as with the lifebox. I have been very pleased with the otterbox with just one exception the plastic cover of the otterbox gets scratched/rubbed on fairly easy I am eventually just going to get the model w/o screen cover and just use replaceable screen protectors.

In no way does it compare to a lifeproof case. Both cases are completely different and made for different purposes. This is an open face case with a clear plastic backing that is held on by the plastic bezel/trim that wraps around the edges of the phone. The phone is exposed to the elements. The lifeproof case totally encloses the phone in the case which is supposed to stop any and all elements from getting to the phone. The lifeproof case is also made of a more shock absorbing material which will hold up to drops, bumps, etc. a lot better than this case will.

I haven't had a scratch yet. The screen feel like the phone screen. The only noticeable difference is the clarity of the screen in the case... not bad but noticeable

I don't know specifically about the life proof case, but my case goes over the metallic edge of my iPhone 5s and the screen protector is still a millimeter inside the edge of the case. The size of the screen protector assumes that you have a case. Just as a caveat, you need to be careful putting on the protector and get the screen very clean and lined up properly. Otherwise there will be bubbles that are hard to get rid of and don't go away. I think the cheap price makes the bubbles more tolerable ;-)
