I hope it's better than last year's clear case: it was very stiff, hard to remove, and it scuffed and smudged terribly. I returned it quickly.
Unfortunately though I adapted to it (eventually) this years case is very much the same as described. I'm still teetering on the idea of returning it since it scruffed the edge of my PB iPhone band... not the band itself but the part of the band you see when looking at the front or back of the phone. I'll try to post a picture.
Pretty bummed out. Now I'm terrified of cases... though I can't be trusted without one. I constantly use my Levi's jackets "inner pocket cut outs" as if they are actual pockets and I've had the phone fall a time or two when I bent over a couple of times. Luckily it wasn't a far fall.
Either way I'm annoyed that the case did that to my phone because it's difficult to get the case on/off and I'm pretty sure the camera bump lip did the scratching. My husband bought me an off brand: Diaclara silicone case and I finally decided to try it out and it feels a million times better than the MagSafe case... though it works with MagSafe it doesn't magnetize as nicely as the Apple brand. Anyway... I'm going to keep a sharp eye out to make sure the silicone case doesn't cause further damage to my band. This case slips on and off so you don't feel like the phone is taking the abuse. The drop test is what I'm uncertain of at this point.
I'm really quite peeved about the slight damage the Apple case caused.
EDIT: Added photos... please excuse the dust/lint on the nakey phone. Please note that a few some of what's seen here is the light reflecting on the phone in the middle. It's the right and left side that became scuffed. DUDE this phone is a lint magnet... anyone else feel that way?
I also added the orange knock off case. It feels soooooo nice compared to the Clear MS case. Also, excuse my hair... it's not a good hair day. LOL.
