Figure I might as well put this in the right place since not everybody will be in the leather thread.

The Ultra Hybrid with black MagSafe hardware is probably my favorite case in a long time. That combined with the Spigen Glass-tR screen protector is just so smooth. Hides all the scratches on my screen, too.

Nice case, please let us know how it holds up to scratches & scuffs.

I had the same combo though case was non MagSafe. The screen protector is still on, as you mentioned it’s real smooth.

Off topic. I'm actually looking at the icons, theme. Do you mind me asking what this is, how to get it? (I admit, I never got into the themes/widgets), but this with the 3D vibe, drop shadow look is kinda awesome.

So what protective type case is there to get?
Though I admire some of the cases depicted here, and maybe I'm not that picky about looks (especially over function), I'm happy with my Gripzilla case.
It's not pretty, but does the job it's supposed to do.
The price is right.
Though I'd like to have a case where my phone is visible, I can't see how scratches, discoloration, or poor tactile handling would be an improvement.
Still, it's interesting to see all the different cases & comments about them.
:D

That’s one of my favorites, the side cutouts or ridges per say make the grip (pun intended) second to none.

Sometimes the bells & whistles are in the efficiency.
I like to be able to pull the phone out of my shirt pocket or pick it up off the table top without the feeling that I'm going to drop it. :eek:

What was advertised falsely?
How old is that case?
The case is 4 weeks old. It started yellowing after couple of weeks. On their site, they spent real estate on the case’s anti yellow technology. I knew it would yellow but thought if it lasts for few months it would be fine, I can replace it with another. Didn’t expect to turn out like this within a month.
