iPhone 4s cases??

[Digs]

I really liked my Otterbox Defender BUT when it was on I had a lot of trouble with my home button not responding! My buddy had the same exact issue and got his phone replaced because his home button wasnt working. (his problem also ended up also going away when he removed the case)

I had it on my phone for a month now have a $39 case sitting on my counter.... I replace my case every month or two. Go to 5 Below and can get some very nice cases for $5

It's not the case, it's a flaw in Apple's design. Mine is starting to do that also, as is my wife's and we don't use the defender.

I was told once by someone in the know that the home button wasn't designed to take as much use as the phone calls for. Supposedly it is fixed in the 4s.

My 3gs is 3 years old with a lot of abuse and mine still works fine (it'll probably quit tomorrow )

I don't know enough to say this with any authority, but may it's just the 4. Those are the only ones I've known to have it happen, and my original and 3gs were fine. I wonder if they used a different type of button (albeit one that looks the same)?

Let me clairify - my phone is the 4. Worked great i then installed the otterbox for my vaction to Hawaii - while on vaction thats when It started to act up- after about a month and almost throwing my phone out the window my wife pointed out that the problem only started with the case. I removed it and the problem went away 100%

When my wife and I upgraded to the iPhone 4s I put them in Lifeproof cases. Waterproof, bomb proof and thin, but a little pricey. So far I'm really diggin em.
