It seems somewhat perverse to buy an expensive, slim, beautifully, elegantly designed object then sheath it in a cheap and relatively ugly, bulky plastic case. However, in the interests of protecting the expensive beautifully designed object, that's what many of us choose to do.
This one is pretty good. Although no thing of beauty, it is a good fit and is robust - I dropped mine down a flight of metal-edged stairs and the case took a couple of dents but no damage whatsoever to the phone.
It's thoughtfully designed with the apertures for the camera, dock and buttons all sensibly sized and in the right place, and it's relatively compact so doesn't add too much bulk when it's in your pocket. The two parts fit together well and the build quality is good. So all in all, fit for purpose, it does a good job and I'd recommend it.

I liked this case at first, it certainly looks nice. However, I dropped my 4S 3 times in the first week and each time the case came apart and the phone scattered across the floor, unprotected!!! Result, new phone scratched!! This case comes in 2 parts which come away easily. I ended up swapping this for a black Griffin Protector case. It's one piece silicon, looks good and offers far greater protection.

I wanted my iPhone 4 protected from the off; too many people I've met have the `cracked screen' app. The iPhone 4 is already a bigger mobile than I'm used to, so I didn't want to make it too much bigger.
Uncased the iPhone 4 is approximately (by my ruler): 115mm high; 59mm wide; and 10mm thick. With the Griffin Elan Form Graphite case it bulks up to: 118mm high; 63mm wide; and 13.5mm thick. So not too-bad on the size increase.
The case comes in two parts (front and back) which clip easily together and show no signs of accidentally coming apart. It offers solid bump protection all-round, but you'll still need a screen protector to prevent scratches; I used the PhoneDevil Magic Screen protector: Crystal Clear (invisible) edition - For Apple iPhone 4 / 4G (2 x FRONT screen protectors). The case gives easy access to all the buttons and sockets as well as openings for the microphones, speakers, rear camera and flash.
Thoroughly recommended.

faulty backng
Everything positive people say about this case is true but I give it only 2 stars because the vinyl backing has peeled away. It started to lift only months after I purchased it. Read more

Looks OK, but not much protection.
I'm happy with the look and feel of this case, and it's a very neat, secure fit on the phone. But as it's a hard shell plastic, I doubt whether it would do much to protect the... Read more
