heading to the apple store today...

alright, i bought a new 3GS and have failed to find a good case for it. i bought the capsule rebel and it started scratching my phone. (faulty case, maybe?) i had no luck with the feather case either. i tried the incase slider on my 3G but i don't think i'd use it again.

so does anyone have any recommendations? i see a few i like on apple's website but i've never tried them. is incase's frame case nice? is it hard to get your phone in the speck candyshell? i prefer a softer case, not hard plastic.

thanks guys

Mophie juicepak air, its the cure for battery OCD.
Hard plastic though.

I can tell you that the incase Slider or the Seidio Innocase II are the best over-all hardshell cases out there.

Got to be the incase slider, it's such a simple idea thats payed off big time.

if you have a massive amount of money go for the element case.

You should look at the Vaja cases. They are pricey but I think they are worth it.

my wife really likes her ifrogs luxe.
if you are into full cases, it does a nice job and has soft insides.

im more of a minimalist. (and less klutsy)

My personal experience with VaJa was horrible. I got it hooked on a door jam and it popped the phone out and sent it spinning across the parking lot. The corners aren't protected and the phone can pop out of the case. In my experience - Pure Crap.
Little protection- Huge price. I would never recommend any of their products to anyone.

I don't carry my vaja case on my hip and thus do not have the problem you described Hawk. It was your warning in a post some time ago that saved me from making that mistake and thanks for that warning. I do use a vaja case however and it has served me well. They do have many different cases and some may be what a person is looking for so to each his own.
