Otterbox Pursuit for XS
Anyone have this case? Good? Bad?
I had had the older version of Pursuit on my X but had shoddy design (foam misalign, gap at top where FaceID cameras).
For XS, otterbox redesigned the case. The mute switch is now exposed. Weird for a case that is dust/dirt proof.
Just trying to get feedback on this expensive case.

But two negatives. I got the black/clear case. The back clear hard plastic is very easy to scratch!! Just looking at it wrong makes a scratch! There is a barely-there rim around the back of case so that the clear plastic does not touch table when you lay on its back...but i think Otterbox needs to make a more prominent rim.
Second negative is bulk. It is a big case. Slim, yes. But it is wide and tall. It does take the slick design of the iPhone XS away...and make it into a brick...just a slimmer brick than if you bought the Otterbox Defender case.
It is probably overkill. But my phone is $1350 (512GB Xs)...and i plan on keeping it a long time...so, i guess that this is OK.
BTW, it is on sale this week i think at Best Buy and on Otterbox site. Still expensive as hell though.
Yesterday, during some rain (not heavy), the case did prevent water from getting into the case. The speaker membrane did not let droplets get through, which kinda cool. Of course, this case is NOT waterproof, but at least with light rain or snow, it should be protective.
