This thing is slippery!!! Need a grippy solution!

[wmflyfisher]

Ok, I've tried many cases including the seidio and the incase slider. Both are great cases and the rubberized grip was a must but I'm tired of the bulkiness.

I know and have read about the invisible shield and best skins ever. They seem to both have pretty good reviews. Are these my only options for adding grip to my iphone without adding some sort of snapping or locking case?? Just want to make sure before I pull the trigger on the BSE.

Also, how easy do these come off if I want to remove it and do they leave that sticky mess once pulled off?? This will greatly affect my decision in purchasing one.

I wish someone made some sort of grippy chemical that you could paint on just the back cover. Like what about the material they use to paint on the rubberized cases? Wonder if you can purchase it in a spray can?! That would be the best if it didn't peal off!!!

Any help would be great!

All you do to remove an IS or BSE is just peal it off the phone. It's definitely on the tougher side, and it also doesn't leave any residues from what I remember.

Thanks SAV.

I use an Incipio silicone case. It's not bulkly, adds plenty of "grip", provides some impact protection, and is very easily removed/replaced.

Is the silicone thick and spongy feeling?? Found this on their website. This it??

Check out eGrips (http://www.egrips.com/store/product_info.php?cPath=7&products_id=270200). I've never tried them but I've heard good things about them. When you remove them, they're supposed to leave little to no residue - any that's left can be removed with an alcohol wipe, apparently.

I use the ZAGG invisibleSHIELD (http://www.zagg.com/)and love it... it has a nice grippy texture and really protects nicely without changing the elegant look of the iPhone.

Thanks guys... I found two that might work perfect.

I have the Incipio Feather and love it. it's not super grippy like a silicone case but it's much better than just the plastic.

Those cases are sweet. I have the BSE and it works well. It keeps doesn't cover the sleek look of the phone, gives it a good grip, and the deal maker for me is it slides in and out of my pocket with ease. Oh and it fits in all my stock docking stations without having to remove anything.

When you peel it off it leaves no residue. BSE, BodyGuardz and Zagg both make excellent products. Check close to the way hit hugs the corners. BSE seemed to make the most sense for me. Zagg had a flap that I couldn't keep down.

Lots of luck.

It does leave some sticky residue, i just removed IS front face. I have a Marware SportGrip with the invisible Shield.

This got me thinking.. I didn't have a residue on my phone and you did... How much solution did you apply?

Nope, here it is. It's available in a variety of colors. I've got clear and black. I like the clear because you can see the Apple logo through it. Otherwise, black looks best IMO. Very thin.

I have used the IS on countless phones and never had any residue.

I ended up ordering the feather because it had so many good reviews. Just youtube incipio feather and watch the reviews. I think it will be perfect for what I'm looking for!

I actualy just ordered one of those today.

Sorry! I don't know because I paid someone to install it for me because I'm hopeless with these things. I recieved a perfect install and that's all I remember.

I've used an IS and a BSE for my white 3G. I couldn't get them on good enough that it didn't bother me. I'm extremely anal and any little bubble drove me nuts. I tried re-applying again and again and couldn't get it perfect. I also noticed that over time parts of it started to peel up. Given the cost of these things, I gave up. I'm using an Incase slider right now. I don't like the bulk it adds, but I'm living with it. If I wasn't so scared of a drop, I'd just use it nekkid.
