Not only do I feel the phone is protected, but it still looks just as sleek. This case does not take away from Apple's design quality, it merely protects it. The rubber inside doesn't scratch the iPhone and in case you drop it, the rubber will absorb the hit so that your phone doesn't. It came with a protective film for the screen but after applying it, I didn't like the look and feel so I took it off. The glass screen is one of the most attractive features of the iPhone, and putting plastic over it just isn't for me. I figure if the screen breaks I can get it replaced for about $50 at a repair store, and I can insure the device for $30 a year through my insurance carrier, which is much better than AppleCare because AppleCare doesn't protect you from spills, drops, etc... whereas insurance does. My advice is to buy a Speck Candy Shell for protection and Insurance for...

Here's my exposure to other cases I've bought, and why I think Speck has the best case.Ifrogz Luxe: The Luxe has a nice two-tone look, but the plastic protecting the iPhone is of very low quality. The coloring on the back of the case easily wears off upon daily use. Even worse, the tabs on the plastic that snap the two pieces into place will frequently break, rendering this case by far the least durable of the ones I've tried. SwitchEasy Rebel Serpent: This is a nice-looking one piece heavy duty case- almost too heavy duty though, as it detracts from the phone's sleekness. Although the silicone is high quality, my biggest problem with this case is aesthetics. The case does not form fit the iPhone, as you can see uneven slivers of chrome at the bottom left and right of it when in use. Incase Slider: Like the...

I have been very pleased so far.It has a very snug, solid fit. It is not as slim as the Slider, but provides two layers of drop protection at only a hair more thickness. Best of all it does not add new scratches to my phone. It's not perfect, though: the vibrate switch cut-is not quite the right shape, as other reviewers have mentioned the earphone jack cutout is too small for some headphones (not a problem for me since I use the standard set), it's not terribly easy to get out of the case (but is really much easier than some reviews I have seen have suggested), and a few other things. But really, these are very, very minor issues. The main thing is that it protects my iPhone without damaging it and is a pleasure to use. For example, a small touch that is really nice is that the part of the chrome bezel that is flush... Read more |
