What iPhone 5 Case are you using?

Mophie Juice Pack Air(waiting on Plus to arrive at Best Buy) Slip Stopper front pieces,Qmadix Tempered Tech Armor,Spigen aluminium home button. *Sorry for the quality,mirrors weren't in top form. It's big but the slip stopper protects from drops,tempered glass for peace of mind, and aluminium home button to raise it up. It's a beast!!! Now I just need to get the Juice Pack Plus.

Yup, I have the Caudabe Perimetric too. The black one looks amazing on my black iPhone 5, especially with the screen off and facing up. Sexy beast - reminds me of Knight Rider (I'm dating myself here.....). Only thing is that the case is pretty tough to put on, but apparently you have to put on the inner layer first and then the plastic ring.

I agree. I have the Caudabe Perimetric as well and it's very solid. Only thing is it's a bear to put on. How do you put yours on? There's got to be an easier way than the method I'm using.....
 
I've had several cases: Spigen Slim Armor, Caudabe Veil, Caudabe Perimetric, SwitchEasy Tones. They're all great cases, but I find myself using the Caudabe Veil the most just because of how thin it is. I think I finally came to the realization that I don't want a big thick case covering up my beautiful phone. My hubby also has a Caudabe Veil for his black phone for the same reason.
 
I have quite a few. I'll list them below in order from most frequently used to least

Spigen linear ex slim metal bumper

Otterbox defender (removed the built in screen protector and use with my spigen glas tr slim screen protector)

Mophie helium

Speck candyshell

Casemate glam snap case

Spigen new hybrid bumper

Griffin clear back

Macally protective frame case

I've also used the zagg hd full body invisible shields, the best skins ever full body protection, and skins from slick wraps, icarbons (by far my favorite company to buy skins from), and sticker boy (who I had a horrible experience with and was quite disappointed in the product I received after almost 2 months).

I utilize my phone a lot throughout the day on the go so I've been using the mophie helium case for the extra charge. I get an extra 8 hours of heavy use of browsing, streaming and texting with it
 
Caudabe Veil

Those of you with the Caudabe Veil, do you notice flash interference from the very small cutout around the camera area? Are your pics ever blurry, fuzzy, etc?

I've had the Caudabe Veil for a while. I don't take a lot of flash pics, but the ones I've taken haven't shown any flash interference at all. I get what you're saying though. The camera cutout is definitely small, but I think because the case itself is so thin it doesn't affect the flash. It'd be a problem for thicker cases for sure.

Ok cool. Yea that's what I figured.
 
Bestskinsever Full Body Matte skin

Abso-freakin-lutely love it. Can't even tell there's anything on the phone
 
Otterbox Defender. My previous phone was the blackberry storm, and I just had a silicon case on that. One major drop broke the camera on that phone, so I've been very cautious with the iPhone. I'd love to just rock it naked, but I know it'd be shattered. I do keep an eye out for other cases that aren't so bulky. Anyone know of any simple silicon cases out there? Everything seems to be plastic anymore.

There's countless numbers of silicone cases out there. But check out the Griffin Protector line, I've heard good things about them

The otterbox prefix is pretty nice, not super thick (but not real thin), I also use the diztronic tpu cases for a thinner alternative.

This is the prefix.

I might have to. I posted originally and then the silicon on my Otterbox decided to tear. Going to contact them about a warranty replacement.

I've been looking at the Speck Candyshell cases, but the reviews seem very mixed. If I do get one, I plan to be very careful with Amazon. Thoughts?
 
since my iphone 4 im using SPECK cases...

the pixel skin hd for iphone 5 atm, and im quiet satisfied with it, not too much bulk, but sufficient protection for me, as the silicon is not too floppy at the sides and at the bottom at the homebutton, AND great plus here, the edges go over the screen! ;)

Just got the noot T5 slim case. Love it.

The great thing about the case is that the edges don't go over the screen. Makes it look like its part of the phone. ;)
