I ordered the cover for my S4 Active. The insertion of the smart phone is very simple, as is the removal. The shell is on the edge as a kind of hard rubber and encloses the phone completely, the back is made of sturdy plastic. The edge is slightly raised, so that the display is well secured even in fall. Overall, the shell fits comfortably in your hand. It has a weight of 36 grams, that results with the phone a total weight of 186 grams. The recesses for the accesses for the data / charging cable, headphones and so on are all well-positioned so that the connection of the respective cables pretty easy going from hand to connect the charger cable's sleeve without fumbling already a little. The reception is in my opinion also not affect what is so widely reported in other shells. The on / off and volume control at the side is quite normal to use. They also provide the phone does not automatically up or down as this should be probably already happened in some third-party shells. I would recommend this shell definitely.
