Nice upgrade from the original iPhone 4 Defender caseBy K. Myers
I used the original Otterbox Defender case for my iPhone 4s, and while it worked ok, this version is a definite improvement. The hard plastic case and the screen protector seem to be the same as the original, other than having larger cut outs for the camera/flash and the front camera/light sensor/proximity sensor area. I never had issues using the 4s camera with the older version case, but I did with the proximity sensor and this case fixes that issue.
The holster has been changed to update the release mechanism. The tab that holds the phone in the holster has been shaped differently in order to make the phone easier to clip in and release.
The biggest upgrade is to the rubber jacket that fits over the plastic case. The rubber seems to be of much higher quality. It has a firmer, more substantial feel, and doesn't seem like it will lose shape over time. It gives the case a better grip in your hand and generally feels more solid overall.
The opening for the silent mode switch seems to still be off center, but not enough to be of concern.
If you are on the fence about whether to get the older iPhone 4 Otterbox Defender for your 4S or this updated version, I'd definitely pay the extra $10 or so and get the new version.

Very Sturdy and Excellent Accessibility to Buttons and ScreenBy G. Jones
Ordered this product directly from Otterbox.com, and it took 12 days to arrive--not sure if that's because of a case modification/upgrade around the time I ordered the case.
The case arrived with instructions on the inside of the box, which were NOT very easy to follow. The box suggests going to Otterbox.com to view the instructional video. I didn't view the video and it took me at least 20 minutes to figure out how to open the case and properly insert my phone into it. Make sure to watch the online video.
Access to all of the buttons and screen is excellent, though there is a flap you have to lift to access the headphone jack. The case definitely adds heft to the phone, but I find that to be a plus both for protection and security (somewhat conceals the fact that the phone is an iPhone).
The case is extremely sturdy and there's no doubt that it offers excellent protection for the phone. The case may help parents relax when their young children want to handle the phone. The holster is convenient for those who like to carry phones on their hip, and it can be configured to prop the phone for pictures/video.
Gave this case four stars instead of five because the rubber shell doesn't always seat perfectly with the plastic shell, and sometimes the flaps covering the headphone and charging areas on the phone pop out just a bit.

Perfect for the 4SBy David S. Gale
This is an extremely sturdy case for the 4S--I have no fear that my phone will be damaged. The entire screen, all buttons, and the power port are all protected, yet still work fine. The clip on the holster even locks open so you could use it as a stand (though I haven't done so yet).
My only complaint is that the hole for the headphone jack is mis-placed; it's on the wrong side of a rubber pad. Luckily, the pad pulls up and out of the way (like the pad covering the power port), so you can still use the headphones, but it seems odd to have a hole that's aimed at...nothing.
UPDATE: Thanks to Happy Mom for explaining what I didn't understand. Seems the problem was in my lack of understanding, rather than in the case's design. Changed my rating and the review's title accordingly.
