What case should i get?

Well title says it all.
Im looking to get a new case.
I want your guys opinions before i purchase one, here are the 3 choices.
1: Capsule Rebel Serpant (white).
2: Incase Slider.
3: Speck Candyshell.

I have previously owned a Capsule Rebel Tiger, and an Incase Slider, and loved them both.
Im looking to get a new case though and wanted your all's opinion.
I heard that some pople have broken there silent/ringer switches off while removing or putting on the Speck Candyshell.
So that worries me.
What do you all think?


Thanks in Advance.

Have you checked out the Capsule Neo? I like it better than the Rebel.

Depends....

First off I've never used the Candyshell so I have no point of reference for you on that one. But personally, I've used both the Slider and the Rebel and I say that Rebel > Slider in most ways. I loved by black slider for the 2g iPhone but the slider fit on the 3g just doesn't seem as tight. My wife now has the white slider for her white 3g and it looks really slick (the plastics are the EXACT same color), but the problem is that it feels really slick too. The awesome thing about the rebel is that it doesn't feel so slippery in your hand because of the type of polymer they use. I have a black rebel and I love it. It's more of a pain to take off but I really love the way it looks and feels both in my hand and in my pocket.

So that's just my two cents on the matter.

I haven't had a rebel but now I might look into it. I have a white incase slider for my 2G and its just amazing. But if its loose on the 3G like kiserai said, maybe you should stick with the rebel.

Thanks for all the input.
I heard the new incase sliders had a much better fit and were really tight?
Keep the comments coming please=)

My incase has a GREAT snug fit. The iwood is a pretty cool case as well but they cost a pretty penny about $100 usd.

I like the otterbox defender so far the only problem I have had is I broke the clip in which otterbox quickly sent me a replacement at no charge.

From a video review I saw, the power slider was flawless, that is if you don't mind the added size. The whole concept is pretty cool too.
