nice but weak

Nice velvety feel to the case, slim and light. Mine broke near the volume rocker after about a month, just from taking it in and out of my pocket. Never dropped it.

Better off with the ruggedized battery cover IMHO

These cases are available for $10 Radio Shack (in-store). It also comes with a screen protector, which I haven't installed.

I'm not crazy about the fact that it leaves the top (near power button/fingerprint scanner) pretty exposed, but I'm coming to terms with it. Also, I'm not sure I agree it's more slippery than the naked phone. It feels less slippery, although, for me, I think it has to do with the ergonomics of the phone. It just felt like the naked phone could slip form my grasp fairly easily. With this case, less so.

I got mine a few days ago and my wife is telling me that she has trouble hearing me when the case is on. She says that it sounds like I'm holding the phone out. Is anyone else experiencing this? It doesn't cover the mic port so I can't explain why it's happening. I'm not using the screen protector either.

I bought a red one on Amazon because I like hard shell cases. It broke near the volume rocker within a day, no drops. I wouldn't trust it for protecting the phone in a fall, even from waist height.

My case broke by the speaker after a few months.. Incipio does have a good customer service (IMO) I sent an rma request.. and all they needed was proof of the crack (emailed picture), and an address to send a new one.

Same happened with me , broke from the speaker corner. I just sent an email to their customer support with a picture of the broken case and they sent me a brand new case for free... not even shipping.... these guys are awesome :)
