I've still yet to get myself a suave little iphone case and with the selection ever growing it would be nice to get a reccomendation or two?

What cases or hip pouches are you guys using?

I have the DLO HipCase - and am pleased with it. It *is* a tiny bit awkward to get the phone out when it rings, but it holds the phone snugly, only leaving the corners exposed.

I got the (*)SPECK Tough Skin for mine. It seems pretty protective, being a rubbery ribbed skin that snaps into a holster/stand. I like it because all of the corners are covered protecting from the inevitable drop test! It looks perhaps a bit industrial with it's ribs and black rubber, but I like it. It comes in a semi-clear color as well. The holster clip doubles as a stand which allows iPhone to stand vertically, or horizontally (for widescreen movie viewing)

regards,
Marty

i have a silicon case but i don't feel like its very protective. i ordered a hard clear case and i want to try to put it in with the silicon case on.

Beware of this case from Case Mate: http://www.case-mate.com/s.nl/it.A/id.254/.f

After three days of mild use, the holster glued to the case fell off. I then bought the Belkin acrylic clear case. No complaints so far. As an added bonus, it comes with an adhesive hook which I attached to my windshield next to the rearview mirror. Now it looks like I have a mini TV in my car.

Terpin - I'm using that case from Case Mate - had it going on 2 weeks without any problems... Been in 100+ temps at the beach the past 4 days as well with no problems so far.

What fell off your case? Maybe I'm missing something.

I dropped my phone in this case the day I bought it and it held up well. The phone got a small scratch/dent in the corner where the case didn't cover... But overall it was better than no case at all!

Thanks for the suggestions guys

Im gonna keep a lookout for a case that'll let me dock the phone too without having to remove it. Oh yes im a very picky consumer

The ring where the belt clip is screwed in fell off. I could always super glue the piece back together but after paying $35 and 3 days of use, I wanted another case.

Denton, check out the Revo from iCase. I don't know if it'll dock with it on but you should give it a try regardless. If it came with a holster, I'd snatch that suave looking case in a heartbeat.

I don't have my iphone yet....but hopefully I get one within the next 2 weeks. I have one on my Birthday wish list....so hopefully my husband gets me one, as he knows how much of a gadget freak I am.

If not, I'll just get it myself.

Anyhow....I have researched many phone cases and I think I will definitely be going with a "Sena" case. I have one for my current phone and the quality is super! They have many style choices and many colors to suit everyones tastes. I myself, plan on getting the Dockable Phone case that has the flip cover.
