For fans of climbing or launched gnome go your way, this is something else. This is a well thought out hull, which respects the design of the I-phone. Before its usefulness is to prevent scratches and to easily slide the phone in jeans or a tight pocket. This product does not offer the best protection against shocks and drops, other shells are specifically provided. I am very pleased to be associated with an I-Visor screen Moshi to finish to protect the phone in front. Note that a plastic screen comes with the hull to protect the back of the phone (see photo). In short good product, but target what is desired .... waterfall or design.
