Contour Showcase review

34.95 apple store

http://store.apple.com/1-800-MY-APPL...nplm=TN554LL/A

A combination of a crystal case and a rubber case, this has been the best overall case I have used so far.

I have used the speck toughskin and the crystal case.

It has a nice fit to the phone, all buttons and openings are easy to access, the rubber outside feels more secure in your hand or if it is on a smooth surface.

the clear back is nice so u can see the apple logo and lettering, so it doesnt cover up all of the ones natural beauty.

it is easy to get in and out, simple open the latch and slide it in.

I prefer this case over the toughskin and the crystal case, cause its really a mixture of the 2

the belt clip is not as strong as others, but it stays in place, but does not rotate, but it keeps the phone secure

i dropped my phone (on accident) on a wood coffee table, and there was no damage to the phone or the case

case - 9.5/10 best ive used, highly recommend

belt clip - 5/10 very basic, but it works

clip does rotate, mine was just stuck,lol

I have this case as well.. I had a clearshell before (forget the model) and this one blew that one away. Love the feel of the case but it is bulky & feels heavy. I picked this over the Agent 18 due to people coming into my store with scratches apparently due to the case. The clip does wear fast & spins easy after a while. That's my only real down fall to the case.

Although I dont use the clip, it's been an awesome case so far. I had a few cheap cases before, got tired of them and bought this one. It's a beautiful case that shows off my iPhone. I get looks every time I use my phone. I highly recommend it.

the clip wears out very quickly, but overall the case itself is the best i've had so far, i tried three other cases and this is the is best to me! i just super glued the clip so it stays permanately in one positon works for me that way!

I have had a few cases and the Contour Showcase by far is the best. I dropped my phone numerous times and thank god I invested $35 for this case. My phone survived falls in tact no dents or scratches. The Case was also left in tact with absolutely no visible damage. The hard rubber coated shatter poof plastic provides maximum protection. It does add a little bulk but thats a minor inconvenience. The only downside is that the clip which wears out fast but still is functional.
