Funny as hell
But, come on... people buy what they like or better: what they need!
I was wondering the same thing. I don't want to cover up such a beautiful device.
I'm amazed that no-one has done this yet... I call it the hillbilly defender box 2.0.

One thing that I don't like about your case is that its not dock friendly. Besides that, how much did you pay? 30 dollars? Normal price for a case, uh?

Excuse me, sir. Not to bother you since you can do whatever you want with your money and your iPhone, but may I ask you what made you buy this enormous "box" for your phone?
Dont be offended, I am asking because I've always wanted to know why people use this box. So now I found someone who bought it.

What about this one?
Give you extra battery for a cost of a little bit bulky appearance

Ooh I like that one. If you are out yachting and your vessel sinks, you can use it as a life-raft.
I just started using the Elago slim fit 2. I really like it. I got it in soft gray.

Caudabe Streamline here. One of those clear soft "TPU" cases but with cool accents on the side. Fits well and feels good in the hand. No complaints so far.

D3O case from T-Mobile. Smoke color and very stiff edges (orange band). Best case I've had on an iPhone yet.
I prefer the real leather variety
I like the design and feel of the naked iPhone when in use but as soon as I'm finished using it I think its wise to have a cover for protection. I like a soft natural material and prefer to use genuine leather for this. I do not like plastic or rubber cases and the most of these just add thickness. I went with one that also double as a wallet but adds very little in the way of thickness.
The ikonic edge works for me as its slim and the leather unlike most is real genuine leather - the type that smells like leather.

TYLT Bumpr
Just got a TYLT Bumpr in the mail. First case I've used with my 5. Love it so far.

Haha. Yeah, it definitely is. Yesterday I knocked my phone about 3-4ft onto the concrete floor at work and I was glad I had it.
It looks bulky in that picture. But I went to the website and you are right, they look very slim. I like the Band case the best. They are pricey though.
