And speaking of.. received my case earlier this week, been using it. Will post review soon.

P.S. Best case I've tried or seen yet, and that's coming from someone with about 5 close friends with iPhones, all with different brands of cases.

best case ever.
i've used the BSE full body skin since day one (literally, since the BSE was released, about a week after the iPhone) and when this case came out I finally purchased a case. It is the best case out there. Hard case with the rubbery feel, looks seamless on the iphone. People have asked me if i had a red iphone. Holding it in the hand actually feels better because of the rubbery feel. Looks great with the chrome bezel showing, looks absolutely fantastic!

Definitely shouldn't cost $34, but you can't get anything better for cheaper so bite the bullet. Haven't seen the blue one but the black and maroon look amazing.

NOTE:
I had to remove the back portion of the BSE because it would not fit the case. Doesn't matter tho because the inside of the case is lined with felt to prevent scratches.

THIS CASE IS AMAZING. Can't say enough good things about it!

I've had my blue Innocase and holster combo now for about a week. I just recently upgraded to a 16GB iPhone (was within my 14 day return window for the 8GB one) and in doing so took off the case. No scratches on the bezel or anywhere to be found. So I stuck it on my 16GB one and it'll be there from now on.

I've gotten a TON of "Wow, can I see that?" comments. The metallic finish on these things really is an eye catcher. I also love how it shows a hint of bezel all the way around...really shows off the face of the iPhone!

Great case....such a radical design improvement from the older Seidio case styles.

Hello. I was wondering how long it took for you guys to get your innocase. I ordered mine on Jan. 31st from seidio, but still haven't got a tracking number. By the way I ordered black, but from the pics posted the colored ones are starting to grow on me.

These have been very popular and we have had some backorders. Please email your order number to forum@seidio.com and I'll be happy to check on your order.

Thanks

Thanks to everyone who posted pics of this case. I just received mine and its the best case that I have owned yet. I think seido hit a home run with this one! my agent 18 and artwizz seejacket are going on ebay.

Ok, I've had the case for almost three weeks now. I can tell you the pros and cons now (believe it or not it does have cons)...

Pros:

Protects the phone well (I've dropped it a couple of times, not a scratch on the case or the phone)
The rubbery feeling is fantastic. Easy to grip.
Small form factor

Cons:

After putting in your pocket and pulling it out, it does show some wear and tear on the lip of the case that surrounds the bezel. I can look at the case in the light and see that the soft touch paint (the grip part) of the case has rubbed off there.
I've only taken the case off once (actually yesterday). I did notice a scratch on the phone caused by the bottom part of the case where the side latches meet with the upper portion of the case. The scratch wouldn't have been that noticeable; however it's on the black antenna section of the phone and exposes a white/silver underlayer.
You can't dock it. I know most cases won't allow docking, but I think it's still a "con" of this case. As I stated above, taking off the bottom portion of the case has a tendency to scratch the phone, so why risk taking the lower portion of the case off to dock it? If someone has found a way to dock the phone with this case, please let me know!

Even though it does have its pros and cons like any other case out there, I can say I am still satisfied with this product and would recommend it to anyone.

Reading the reviews I went ahead and ordered one. I wanted blue but purchased mine on ebay and there was only clear and black available. For as expensive as they are, they shouldn't scratch the phone, which worries me.

Does anyone know details about the holster? I purchased the slim rubberized seidio case and holster combo a while back and love the case. But then I saw this case and had to have it but want to know if it fits in the same holster?

yes I called Seidio and they said the holster from the older version will work.

I just one question how "rubbery" the blue innocase. I mean is it more shiny/metallic the rubberized part?
