Most:
- The installation is relatively easy.
- The plastic is flexible mid, mid-rigid (thus starts and comes off easily).
- The size is well suited to the iPhone 5, once installed, it holds up very well, no millimeter of space too.
- Because of its material, it provides extra grip in hand. It is anything but slippery, which provides additional security.
- Access struggling pregnant boutons..Etc, are impeccable.
- Comes with a screen protector very good bill.
- Protection of raised edges: thereby lay the screen face phone.
Cons:
- Plastic a little thick: it's a little big anyway. By putting, I felt for a while, to have iphone 4 hands.
- The quality of plastic on the medium / long term is to be tested. One can ask for the price, she will follow the life?
- The edges of the plastic takes up too much space (a matter of millimeters) on the screen. I do not deny that my fingers abut against the edges typing a text message.
- There's a cheap side I do not know if it's psychological (knowing that it costs so little expensive), but visually, the hull gives a cheap appearance. This is perhaps a little too thick side of the plastic. But I recognize that this is debatable.
- Only plastic, no interior to protect from scratches felt if dust had to sneak inside the hull.
Verdict:
Yes, it is a value for money, undeniably excellent. And I advise this shell for positive reasons above. But I still say that for something as magnificent in terms of design and elegant finesse in the iPhone 5, something tells me a shell so cheap is not up to par. It's like a supermodel dressed in a thrift store. Some will say, it remains canon, but others say that it could put more value ...
Editorial on 02/12/2012 after a good month of intensive use pocket (without removing the shell).
The plastic "transparent" turned gray. Plastic moved and leaves a vacuum which leaves back the dust at the back of the iphone. The same empty amended the contoured hull who hung the protective film and did take off in a corner of the screen.
In short, you get what you pay. I immediately bought a new shell (SwitchEasy Nude transparent) that finally honors the beautiful aesthetics of the iPhone because of its finesse.
Verdict refléchi: ok for the price as a temporary shell waiting to find better.
