4.0 out of 5 stars The Best Case for iPhone!, December 17, 2008

This review is from: Case-Mate Vroom Case for iPhone 3G/3GS - Black (Wireless Phone Accessory)

After purchasing my iPhone 3G, I spent several hours searching high and low for a suitable iPhone skin that wasn't a ridiculously tacky-looking, bulky leather case. All that I've found that made me happy is this one.

The original silicone skin I bought was at the AT&T store (along with my iPhone) and they charged me $20 for a thin, crappy skin that was junk. I threw it out, and bought this instead. This skin is cheaper and better than anything else I've found. Perfect fit, looks very cool and unique. Everyone who sees it says, "wow, tire tracks! Cool!"

Here's my one complaint--the hole in the top for plugging in your auxiliary cable or headphones isn't big enough. It's just not cut wide enough. You can press your auxiliary cable in pretty hard, and it will fit, but it squashes the top of the skin in doing so. (No big deal, it just makes it look funny and eventually stretches it, making it looser). Just an annoyance at this point, but I wish they had made it wider.

Initially, it looked great, fit well, and gave a good feel to the phone. Thick enough to give a solid hand feel, but not huge. However, two months down the road, the black "paint" has worn off the corners, exposing the clear-jelly silicone material; but this doesn't bother me too much. The real problem is that it has stretched out, so it does not fit tightly any more. Now every time I put it in my pocket, the case twists/slips sideways and comes half off the phone. (Yes, I have done a thorough cleaning of the phone and the inside of the case, so this is not a problem of greasiness.) So, only two months and I need to replace it.

3.0 out of 5 stars Nice, but not very protective..., February 28, 2009

I expected something harder, this is pure rubber, too much flexible and sometimes come out very easily. It also makes hard to put your iPhone in and out pockets. But it's nice.
