The iPhone is sitting in it safely in a solid plastic shell of superficial soft material that all operational and connection elements spares, and thus leaves reached. Only for the data cable must remain open the flap, which in turn means that this jack in 'packaged state' through the shell to filter larger foreign bodies (not dust!) Is protected.
The inside of the flap, which rests in the closed position on the screen is soft, not scratchy designed. It is easily maintained with a completely coated magnet in an inconspicuous small tab on the plastic shell. For practical use, absolutely sufficient, and practically hardly noticeable when you open the flap, because quite small but sufficient magnetic forces.
Discussions can easily lead to the hanging flap, said 'uncool' appearance is owed to 100% of the practicality of this beautiful attractive protective sleeve.
Who uses his iPhone exclusively encased, in my opinion, has no problems.
Only the occasional withdrawal for use in car installation kit becomes quite tricky because the plastic shell really want to hold the device so that it never accidentally fall out. Against this very good resolution you have to then fight to take the iPhone out. Only for this reason falls to me the fifth star off because I really hate this fight so 2 times a week, and you have to take him really aware. Do the best always sitting in the car, so you do not accidentally fall down the precious device!
The bag is either not or always very positive so far noticed in all my meetings. So if you are looking for something to read represent, should be something 'flashier' set, or select at least one flashy color (when it gives at all!). There are also other manufacturers of bags similar structure, similar in principle, but less well designed or even worse / less expensive in the material. Before apples / pears compare so be warned, it comes at the end not figure out the same thing.
According to my experience so far I would buy this bag at all times with conviction again.
