Digital camera reviews of SHIELD Apple 3G 3GS iPhone Shield Polycarbonate Slim Fit Case + Microfiber Cleaning Cloth - (Black)
Digital camera Review: Excellent
Summary: 5 Stars
I dropped my phone three times before the case broke
and no damage was ever noticed. I replaced the broken
one with the same product. I like it most because i have
had some cases that catch on everything and cause you
to drop your phone. This is not one of those cases. I
hardly notice it's there.

This shield works very well to protect the back and sides if my iphone. Although it is made from polycarbonate it has a 'rubber' almost tacky soft feel to it making it easier to grip the phone. Being slim it does not change the overall size of the phone. I recommend it.Digital camera Review: Excellent Case for my iPhone 3GS

I ordered this item for my iPhone 3GS and it arrived one day earlier than the earliest estimated shipping date, so I was very impressed with the shipping speed from NY to GA.
As for the case itself, it is hands down the best case I have seen anywhere and it does exactly WHAT I NEED. This case does not cover the screen and it does not cover the entire bezel. Apple designed the screen so that it does not scratch with normal use, so I don't need a case that protects the screen...and neither do you. As for the exposed portion of the bezel, I had a 1st gen iPhone for 2 years that was covered by a CoZip case almost identical to this one and I am very satisfied with the way that similar case protected my original iPhone for 2 years. Scratching was minimal along the bezel and even with my wife accidentally dropping it a few times on the corners, the case took the punishment and kept my iPhone from scratching, so I fully expect this case to behave the same way. At the end of two years, I have a 1st gen iPhone that is in EXCEPTIONAL condition, but worth less than $100.
In the event of a catastrophic drop, your iPhone will likely have cracked glass or physical damage, case or no case. With that said, I needed a case that protected from cosmetic damages (scratches, nicks, etc) but did not add weight or thickness or change the sleek, ergonomic feel of my iPhone 3GS. Price was also a major factor and this case fit the bill perfectly. Lastly, I LOVE the rubberized feel of the case that adds just the right amount of grip. Why Apple didn't add this to the iPhone 3GS is beyond me but this case does provide that on both the inside and outside of the case.
I have a buddy that paid $30 for an iPhone 3G case from another website. It's made of silicone and looks like a silicone version of a tank tread. It's ridiculous. It adds an incredible amount of thickness and bulk and just looks silly. If you are looking for an inexpensive solution to keeping your iPhone (3G or 3GS) looking like it is an iPhone, this is your case. It looks awesome on my iPhone 3GS and I feel confident that it is protected. It's a Five Star iPhone case, hands down.

I have been using this product for my Iphone 3G for almost a month. So far I like it. It seems to be made of good quality material, gives a very good feeling when holding the phone. Easy to take out and put on. I saw another Red color after I bought my black one so I might get that one too.
