good product with one draw back

 

a good product that serves the purpose of protecting the phone. The only draw back is that if you use an adapter that convert the tip of the cable fron I4 to I5 it will not fit in the case and will not charge the phone. besides that the product is...

everything

take off and put it on

Ehhh.... It's ok

 

It's an ok cover stays in place and protects the phone, but the case itself scratches easily.This product has... good fitAbout me... active lifestyle

Protects the phone

Scratcehs way too easily

Consumer review by:

Not great

 

I bought the case the day the IPhone came out, so maybe I've had it for about 3months and change? I've dropped my phone just as any normal person would, the rubber keeps it from skidding across the room which is great, there's no harm to my phone....

Protects the phone, not bulky

Doesn't last, rubber peeled off, scratches easily, replacing after 3 months, rubber gets dirty

Good fit (tight) and never breaks!

 

I love the Spec with gel and have recommended it to others. It firmly holds onto the phone and my phone has never needed a repair. Many covers I have seen my friends use come off the phone at the drop of a hat. Mine never does! We need more colors and...

The phone has been dropped many times and never comes off

After a few years, the plastic at the bottom partially broke

Consumer review by:

Looks good at first then u realize its not

 

Engineers need to rethink this design, whats the point of having a case if you have to constantly remove the phone to charge it. Very annoying will be returning back to store. The new Iphone has a connector that is small and can't be inserted with this...

the fit and gloss

need to remove phone from case to charge. Annoying

Consumer review by:

Great coverage and super fit!

 

This was one of only two cases available on the day the 5 came out at my local AT&T store. The other was an Otter Box, which I did not want because you cannot get them in and out of your pockets. I have been Very Pleased with this case. The fit on the...

Tight Fit and Super Protection

scuffs easily

Consumer review by:

Just an honest review..

 

I bought this case because I had the candyshell for my iphone 4 and loved it! This one.. Not so much! I dropped my phone while putting in my pocket and this case provided NO protection! The frame of my phone bent and the screen fell out! Sure, apple...

Awesome case, only 1 drawback

 

Overall, this is an excellent case. It fits the phone to a "T", so much so that it can be a little difficult to get the phone back out of the case. It is lined with rubber on the inside and protects the phone well, as its held up to a few small drops....

It fits the phone very well and protects it from falls/scratches

The glossy finish

Consumer review by:

Love it

 

This is the best case I've had for an iPhone. It has almost the same protection as an otter box but considerably thinner and lighter. Does it scratch? Sure but wouldn't you rather the case scratch (which is what it's made for) than your phone scratch?...

Consumer review by:

Great case that adds protection

 

I had this same case for my iPhone 3GS. It does seem to scratch easy, and will most likely become brittle and break, but name one case that you don't end up replacing at least once during the life of the phone. Case is very minimum in thickness, adding...

Protection and lack of thickness to achieve this protection

Does seem to scratch
