Question What case did you get for your iPhone?

Just curious about your selection and what works for you. I bought an horizontal case with s slip-on clip but I am not completly happy with it. I am still looking and will probably buy something else when I found one that suits me.

I just purchased a belt horizontal pouch for convenience at the moment until I search and find something more appropriate. I also bought the Zagg Invisible shield to protect the unit while out of the case. I tested the first one at the store for about 30 minutes and found that the keyboard most left and right bottom keys were not responding often. When typing it was a pain. The problem too was when you are trying to zoom on the screen often both fingers weren't detected thus not zooming at all. I guess I will go to Cases.com to see what they have to offer.

I used one iPhone with the Zagg Invisible shield on the front and it seemd to work well with my fingers although I only used it for a minute or so. Please update us on how this continues to work (or not) for you Frenchy.

I got a sedio skin & holster combo. I have a similar one with my tilt. Face in design, skin fits well (no screen protection, you have to buy one separately.). All buttons & ports are accessible. If you use one of the cradles, you have to remove a small section of the skin (easy).

I really like this case (I have several others I bought when waiting for this one).

I have a DLO hip case for pants with regular pockets and a Griffin Elan Form Case with EasyDock for when I have pants with big pockets. I also have a Zagg Invisible shield on the front.

I ended up with this one...
Amazon.com: iPhone 3G ONLY Rubberized Hard Plastic Case Cover Black: AccessoryOne

Fits well and has a nice feel. Not bad for 4$

Hey guys when you do not have a clip to put the iPhone on your belt, how are you carrying it?

Pocket, I have one of those microfiber bags, that the old Oakley sunglasses come with. I'm looking at getting a front flip armor case..

i have bought different kinds of cases.. you can call me an iphone case addict.. have used, invisibleshield,air jacket, belkin cases, switcheasy, more-thing, etc.. but of all iphone cases that i have used & bought.. i prefer the iskin solo the most( i have the red one). it is really elegant & protects the iphone.. iam planning to get the iskin FX real soon. looks just as good as the solo.

I got the Showcase from Contour. I particularly like the fact the belt clip can be vertical or horizontal and that it stays securely on the belt. I don't use a cradle, but all connectors are fully available. I also have a non-glare screen protector, but I've forgotten the brand name. Overall, it's a good combination.

I haven't bought a case yet but I am looking to see what's out there.

I want something that's very minimal but still provides protection. Something that doesn't add much weight or bulk and still keeps the look of the phone. Been looking online but I think I need to actually go to a store and see stuff in person.


Does anyone have any opinions on screen protectors? I need to get one asap.
