Just picked it up from the AT&T store because its the only case Ive been able to find.. Didnt know what to expect, but its very nice. Fits great, but not a super hard plasic that will scratch.. I know alot of ppl in here are all about the expensive fancy "phantom skinz " type deals but this is an excellent case and would recommend it to anyone.. I picked it up for $19.99

A day ago I would have completely agreed with all of you, because I love this case. And I could just completely be a fluke, but yesterday I was showing off the phone and someone asked me to remove the case; so I happily obliged and upon removing I find that it seems part of the case has worn down the nice black metal on one section of my battery cover....:eek:...:mad: It was only in the case for ~36 hours.

I Looked around in the case to see if there was any obvious reason why this happened and couldn't find anything. :thinking: And I KNOW it wasn't like that before I put the case on. It doesn't seem to be getting any worse, but it sure isn't going to get better....

I just felt it was worth an FYI to everyone with the case.

Thanks for sharing. I haven't picked up a case or skin yet. May do both like I did for my iPhone, to protect from grit that gets in (and now scuffing) under the case, but the case provides cushioning if dropped.

Dude, the Zagg Invisible Shield SUCKS. It makes your phone feel a cheap toy. It also made my touch buttons on the bottom less sensitive. Mine lasted for about a week before I took it off. I was so unimpressed that I even emailed the company about it... and I never do that.

I've had my body glove case on for two weeks and it has been riding in my pocket the whole time on hikes and various activities. Not a single scuff, still looks new under the case. Fits great, good grip. I bought mine as a holder case till something better came along, but I'm keeping this for a long while.

It's $25 for a piece of plastic. But all cases are about like that, and this is a good one.


Actually its 25 bucks for Silicone,gel, AND plastic.. But it works great ;)


Like I said In another thread I didnt wanna buy any accessories for this because New Android phones will phase out the captivate in a few months anyways, so its just like throwing $$ out the window.. But tis was worth it
