This is a good looking product that will not disappoint. Better value than products from an alternative sites already purchased. I have had the case for about a month and it still looks great. When the need arises I will replace with the same thing.

I have just put my new Case-Mate case on my iPhone 3GS, and it looks absolutely amazing. Very, very nice. At first glance the product looks kind of flimzy, but then again you can’t have a durable case that’s also slim-fitting. Anyway, you won’t be disappointed when you buy this case.
I’m pretty sure the case won’t last forever, but then I’ll just get another. It is really good looking.

I must confess I did not realise that the case would be made from plastic, but this certainly keeps the weight down. ‘Barely there’ is about right – the case adds very little bulk to the phone, and no noticable weight. I got this case as I cracked a screen on a previous 3Gs when it fell onto a patio from a low table. This case seems to cover the corners of the phone – a notorious weak spot on iPhones – so should hopefully provide adequate protection if it happens again. It probably wont help much with heavy impacts, but then it is designed to be discreet rather than very strong.
The silver-effect finish can scuff, revealing the black base-plastic, but any of this on mine after a month of use is minimal, and frankly it hardly breaks the bank to replace. I think it looks pretty good as well, especially with the white back of my iphone.
I highly recommend this case if your looking for attractive lightweight everyday protection for your phone. If your looking for something that will survive big falls or extreme sport crashes however, i’d look elsewhere.

After receiving a different cover than I initially ordered- I am pleased with the result!
The cover was very easy to fit and keeps the phone looking modern and sleek. The only thing that lets it down is the clear cover for the screen which i still cant get two small air bubbles out of despite re-applying it!
