    Carphone warehouse have them. Case mate hard case is another good option, less bulky too.

    Been using the otterbox defender since just after the s3's first drop, it's good for protecting the phone but I couldn't recommend it. The built in screen protector has a gap between it and the screen and it feels like an old resistive screen to use, also it reduces the screen quality to the extent that I used to take it out of the case to watch a movie, until i decided to remove the screen protector altogether. Plus the rubber part of the case has stretched so much that it no longer fits properly. Ands it's expensive too.

    I have the Otter box commuter series which I got in the 3 store on Grafton St. (also available in Vodafone). It works grand, at bit of a pain to install with the screen protector on. Also a small bit of dust/dirt gathers up on the inside rim (nothing an ear bud can't sort out). It has survived both a drop on tiled and concrete floors, only minor scuffs on the case from sliding.

    My brother has the Otterbox and I have the casemate tough. Comparing the two I wouldn't pick the Otterbox. It's bulky and awkward looking compared to my casemate tough. I got mine on Amazon. I don't know what shop would sell them. My brother got the Otterbox in three if your still interested.

    O2 have them in stock too.

    It really comes down to a personal preference between otterbox and case mate though.
