I have the Iris Anti-Glare Films by Belkin screen protector, Spigen black aluminum button and HEX Axis Wallet Case on my iphone 5, got the iphone 5 yesterday along with the cases/accessories.

(Pic down below)
Took this with my iPad Mini.

I am thinking of getting the Hex Axis Wallet Case but I read in a review on this case that it is difficult to remove the phone from it.

Have you had any difficulties removing the phone from this case? Thanks! :)
 
As I stated previously in this thread, I don't use cases as I prefer using the phone naked. However, I did win an Incase Slider Pro & it's a pretty nice case for anyone who may be interested in that style. I don't agree with the price-point but it does add a bit of grip while also keeping the phone fairly slim. I also like the style of the case. Picture is below if anyone is interested.

The case is nice with a minimalistic style. I really like it but the problem is that the bottom small piece that connects with the case is loose and can easily come off the phone especially when u drop the phone. This is a biggest draw back for me...

The bottom piece on mine is quite hard to get off. It takes a bit of force to pull it off. Perhaps you got a bad one?

If you inspect your phone, do you see any visible scratches? Had this case on my 4 and upon removing it, it left a deep scratch on my antenna band. I make an effort take care of my phones so I was basically horrified when that happened. Just wondering if the materials improved. I think it was a plastic interior lining that scratched up my previous phone.

I only used the case for 2-3 days and in that time it has not caused any issues to the phone itself. I went back to rocking it naked so I can't give you a solid answer as I've only used it for a short period of time.

I have the black model. The case would look great with both models of the iPhone 5.
 
Poetic Atmosphere.

It works really great. It's really tight fitting, so almost no dust gets through to the inside. I've used other cases, and dust pile up underneath etc, but with this one the problem is nearly eliminated. A great buy!

i use same case and i love it
 
I don't use cases.

I love the design of the iPhone 5. Love its modern design, and clean simple lines. Defeats the purpose when you cover the beauty in a case.

But I understand the important of protecting my previous iPhone, that's why I installed a glass screen protector. Bought this new brand called Good Gadget. Loving it!!!! It protects your iPhone screen without taking away from the design or smoothness of the screen. And it adds color to my screen, making it super unique and a conversation piece. i have been stopped too many times and people have been asking me why my iPhone is red....hahaaha

I have got several private messages regarding where I bought mine. Thought I will share the website. They sell on Amazon and free shipping!!! You gotta love that

I've got way too many cases, but my "daily driver" at the moment is the Caudabe Perimetric in frost. I think Belkin has a similar case, but I love the white border on this. Looks really sharp. And the case itself provides good drop protection without being Otterbox bulky if you know what I mean. I honestly don't see the appeal in those cases.
