    Most expensive case that wasn't worth the money... For me.
    I had this happen twice when getting out of my car. The seat belt some how caught the case and the phone popped out. I liked the case so much that I just started wearing it on my right side.

    I keep it in my pocket, I'm not the hip-holster, belt-clip type. With the phone in the case I have grabbed the flap (case open) and shaken violently and my phone didn't move a mm. It's very solid, sorry you had a different experience...

    I just made a post how I used a Dremel tool to modify a dock insert which now allows me to dock my InCase Slider case without removing the case. For me... this makes the slider the perfect case for my needs.

    I love the thinness of the slider... and I especially like the "soft" almost rubber-like finish even though it is a hard case. Being able to dock it without removing the bottom made this case perfect for me!!!

    The perfect iPhone case is such a subjective decision. As others have noticed it really depends on how *you* use your iPhone and if you want protection, style, and/or utility out of your case. I've tried a bunch of different cases myself, and the Incase Slider is the one that suits me the best - I get quick access to the screen, good drop protection, access to all the buttons, and an easy way to dock it. To each her own...

    @Ireland3G: I've seen those Miniot cases and thought they looked pretty neat, though not quite my style. That was a good overview of what you liked and didn't like and it was nice of you to provide feedback to them on your experiences.

    Cool site, you should do a rating on those reviews. B+ etc. It matters to people.

    Thanks! I've thought about adding a rating system and want to do something a little more objective, but it's hard to do given the range of products I review. Maybe someday!

    I would love something that was leather, smart looking and protected the screen.
    It seems like just about all cases leave the most vulnerable part of the iPhone - the screen, totally exposed.
    The leather flips that I have seen and bought cover the screen, but for some stupid reason they usually leave two or sometime four! of the corners of the iPhone exposed to damage in the case of a fall onto concrete.

    just to quote again, i got this case in the mail today and WOW am i impressed. high quality leather, the magnetic shut is awesome. holds the iphone in there solid, with 2 cc slots (i have cc, id, school id and cash) in them and it is awesome. i HIGHLY recommend this case if you want something that looks professional and is very protective as well as functional. the only issue i see is the flap gets in the way when taking pics, but i will just hold it up if taking a quick pic or take the iphone out (not hard to do) if taking several. i had high expectations for this case but it has exceeded all of them. i will take pics and upload them soon.
