I've been through a bunch of cases and all had something I didn't care for. I loved my Thor case for hiking since it was bulky (and red) so if I dropped it, the phone should have been fine. WAY too big for day to day use though and since the phone is just a bit too big for one handed use naked, with that case on, it just wasn't going to happen.
Then I got the Incipio Octane (frosted) which was a whole lot better, didn't make the phone ridiculously thick and it wasn't as slippery.
Finally, when I was shooting for some cosplayers and seeing what they could do with spray paint, I grabbed a cheap TPU case from Ebay that had the cutouts and coverage that I wanted and basically made the case I wanted. So far so good.
Two thin coats of perfect match paint (mildly textured) and then a clear coat on top. Retains the feel of the naked phone while protecting it, made it less slippery and there is a lip on the front for when I need to lay it face down. Not bad for $2 TPU case.
