DeathGrip protector

---

What is the best way to prevent the "'Death Grip" I live on outlining area of 3g and i can death grip my phone from 5 bars down to 0. Currently i have a Silicone Case but it makes it bulky and doesn't slide in and out of my pocket easy. I would like to find a battery cover thats different (like the carbon-fiber things) but avoid the "death grip". Any suggestions?


I saw this its clear but looks bulky

Quite holding the phone so tightly would be my first suggestion.

Check out amzer or the sgp cases.

Mostly when I hold it in my left hand while in bed even if I hold it gingerly.

I have the black T mobile case, but it is kind of bulky.
One question though, Have you ever really dropped a call or had the 3g drop when you have the "deathgrip"?
The reason I ask, is that is seems that our phones show no bars when we still have plenty of signal. It happens to me quite frequently that I will have no bars showing, but I make calls and surf the web just fine.

yeah I get the death grip thing too. I haven't got my case yet but the tpu cases are usually the thinest and aren't rubbery so its easy to get the phone in and out of your pocket. You can find them for about ten bucks on amazon or three dollars on ebay.

btw i've never dropped a call with this phone at all. but the grip will take my two-three bars 3g to one - zero bars on edge.

I have had two dropped calls and both of them are when my phone has been in my left hand, with my unlocked i phone i didn't have dropped phone calls in the area that i had this. So this leads be to believe this was because of this however it could have just been bad weather , high call rate in that area or just plain dark forces at work HA. I just think this is a sexy thin phone however at the same time i want to take care of it.
