When I bought my iPhone 3G, I purchased a inCase silicone protective cover. Although the inCase cover was ok, the silicone lost its form-fit factor. I searched and saw the Moshi case at MacWorld and ended ordering one. All I can say is I think it is the best designed and functional iPhone 3G case on the market. The rubberized is tacky enough to slide in/out of your pocket without getting caught up against fabric etc. Go for it!

The look and feel of this product is great. The surface feels lightly rubberized, keeping from sliding out of my hands like a naked iPhone would, but not so sticky as to make it difficult to get out of my pocket (like silicon cases). The design is very complementary to the design of the iPhone, unlike nearly every other case out there. No sharp edges from the plastic mold. It fits tightly, without any play, and never felt like it might come off accidentally. It doesn't cover every possible surface of the phone, so it might not be for the person who tends to be hard on their gadgets, but it provides plenty of protection for me. It definitely felt like a five star product.

Everything was very good for about a month, at which point I noticed some cracks appearing in the corner of the case by the mute switch. Needless to say, I was quite disappointed.

But yet I am still giving this product four stars. It would have been one star after the cracks appeared, but Moshi's customer service rep was truly stellar. She asked for some pictures of the cracks, and after I provided them, she agreed to send me a replacement case. She is even allowing me to send my cracked case back to them after I receive the new one, so I don't even have to go without a case while I wait for the new one to arrive.

I just hope the new one does not develop cracks like the last one, as I really like this case. I'll post an update to this review if it does.

Update:
Second one cracked after a month. Moshi sent me TWO replacements, and did not request the cracked one back. Hopefully one of these will last. I've reduced the rating down to two stars because of the durability issues, but the customer service remained excellent.

Excellent feeling, easy to clean, anti-dust, lower price compared with tons of protectors you see in Apple store. What else you can ask for? I really recommend this product with no hesitation.
