The iFrogz silicone wrapz case for the iphone 3g

Hey guys,

I bought this case for my iphone 3g and it hasnt been good. I don't like this case one bit.

So why, I hear you ask, do I not like it? Well, there are a number of reasons  for this.

Firstly. I don't like how much bulk it adds to the phone. I find that the phone feels like a brick in my hand. It's very clunky and holding it up to my face just feels wrong.

Secondly, I don't like the silicone on the case. It's very tacky and sometimes it's impossible to pull the phone out of my pocket. There have been times where I have needed 2 hands to pull it out of jeans pocket. While I do like the safety of this feature, it's not something that I want to keep on having to do everytime I need to read a text message or answer a phone call.

Finally, The area around the screen presents a problem for me when writing text messages. I find it hard to push the space key and the a key as they are too close to the edge. I would prefer something that is a bit more flush to the screen.

In saying all the above, it's a case that offers very good shock protection and I would recommend it if you are looking for something that gives that.

Overall I would give this case a 4 out of 10.

Hey! I work with iFrogz and the Luxe case for the 3G iPhone is really popular - especially because it doesn't stick in your pocket! It's a hard case, but doesn't add bulk, and is finished with a unique soft-touch feel. I think you'd like it! http://tinyurl.com/4ggxcp
