The hull seems well protected the iPhone 5 (although I still prefer to put a film also in the back because of the dust that can end up back ...), the shell possesses a flange that allows to put it on face without being in direct contact with the screen ... The buttons are nothing exceptional. Now I'm really disappointed and it is on finishing the sides of the hull are very rough qi is very unpleasant, I received the hull with damaged glass (light scratch). So overall it's still a good product but at that price the cheaper half shells are largely better. Oh well
