5 out of 5 stars I love this case!!   January 12, 2010
S. Katt (Phoenix, AZ)
I've been using this case for over a year now and don't know why there are bad reviews. I love the hard plastic screen cover rather than a film because it really protects the screen. I have never had an issue with 'bubbles' under the screen - I just make sure the plastic and the screen are both very clean when I put the case on. The interlocking case fits snugly (sp?). In regards to people saying the color is coming off, the green case has a matte finish that is slowly scraping off to reveal shiny green. I had the same problem with the factory finish of my Palm before I retired it. But it is really not at all noticable unless you really look under bright light.


4 out of 5 stars Good cover   September 15, 2009
T. Martin (New Orleans, LA USA)
I like the feel of this cover. It's very comfortable to hold and it seems like it will protect the phone well although I have not dropped it yet, so I can't say for sure.
My only complaint is how difficult it is to take off and put back on. I have to do this rather frequently to clean the clear cover it comes with, and it is somewhat cumbersome. Hopefully that means that is a good protection for the phone though.



1 out of 5 stars Absolute Garbage   August 27, 2009

The plastic coating that gives this case its color WILL come off of after very little time and use. I'm talking about normal, everyday use. Both my gray and green case were terrible looking after only a few days. A complete waste of money, a terrible product, do not buy under any circumstances.


2 out of 5 stars Would Not Recommend   August 3, 2009
RVP in MD (Baltimore, MD Subs)
Looks nice (for awhile). Fit could be tighter. The coating started to peel off the case the first day I had it. I could not believe it. I have had to scrape of the remaining coating off the make it look ok. Also has a tendency to catch and make the screen protector bubble up which is weird because it's the one they supply. (The 2 pack green/black does not come with peel and stick. the single pack does.)

I would not recommend. Griffin does make good quality products but this is not one of them. It was made stictly to look cool and nothing else. Just like a hot pair of shoes!!



5 out of 5 stars I do not understand where the negative reviews came from...great case!   May 19, 2009

I got this product for my new 3G iPhone and everything fits great, it was easy to get my iPhone in the case, and the case feels and looks great. It's a solid design and I no longer feel nervous about dropping my iPhone like I did the first two days I had it before I bought this case. For a hardshell case, the feel is actually quite soft and grips well, but still slides in and out of your pocket easily (unlike the soft silicon cases).

The only complaint I have is the plastic screen protector. As a previous reviewer said, it doesn't work very well, and you're much better off getting a protector that sticks to your screen. Since that's such a minor thing though I don't have any reason to rate this less than 5 stars.

To the reviewers who couldn't get the case to fit your phone correctly, either you bought the case for the opposite model phone or you're just not installing it correctly. Griffin has an instructional video showing you how to put it in, and it's pretty simple. I've posted a url for it below.
