I had the original styles of otter box. While they may have lasted longer as a whole, the rubber on mine was always a mess.
The impact resistance is pretty darn good on the Lifeproof but the biggest reason I use them is the waterproof part. Not so much because they’re claimed as waterproof (which they are pretty good at to) because a lot of newer phones are resistant past the point I need. For me, with waterproof also means dust and debris. Keeping crap out of the speakers is alway a big plus that I could never get with Otterbox.
To each their own but I know where I’d put my money.
