The Perfect 4S Case,
January 29, 2012 Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Belkin Essential 050 Case for Apple iPhone 4s (Clear/Blacktop) (Wireless Phone Accessory)
It took a little while but I finally found the perfect case for the iPhone 4S.
What I wanted...
A case that protected the glass from getting scratched (on the back and a lip to protect the front)
Lightweight and slim (probably won't protect the phone from a real big drop but will for most)
A bit of a texture to help with grip but won't be difficult to get in and out of a pocket
Didn't cause "flash back" when using the flash on the camera
Kept the Apple logo visible (just like the way it looks)
What I got...
All of that!!!! I went through a couple of cases until I found this one.
It is a single piece and slides right over the phones edges but once on, it feels very snug and the phone doesn't move at all. The material will not do a thing to the phone which was also important to me.
Belkin is what Apple sells in their stores (not this model however) and I should have been looking at this brand...Read more

Nice protection with no bulk,

This review is from: Belkin Essential 050 Case for Apple iPhone 4s (Clear/Blacktop) (Wireless Phone Accessory)
This is a really nice slim case that is durable enough to properly protect the phone. The material is semi-flexible allowing the phone to be inserted or removed easily. Yet when the phone is in, it's solid and flexes only minimally. The slim design adds no bulk making it perfect for pocket carry which is how I carry my phone. The material is not slippery in the hand. It does not interfere with the buttons making the buttons easy to press. It covers the front edges of the phone so it can be placed face down. Has the proper cut out for the 4S camera to avoid over flashing. Of the colors Belkin offers in the 050 case this was my favorite combo since to me it looks professional being black and clear (grayish) on the back. To protect the front screen I used Splash Masque Clear Screen Protector because it looks just like the glass and covers from edge to edge. The Apple and DLO charging cables fit fine but a retractable no name brand cable didn't because the plug was slightly too wide...Read more

Best minimalist case for iphone 4s,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Belkin Essential 050 Case for Apple iPhone 4S (Blacktop/Overcast) (Wireless Phone Accessory)
I was looking for an iphone 4s case that has all the following features, and after so much investigation I finally found this one. I am so happy with the case.
- minimalist design, not bulky
- cover back and front (enough lip to protect the screen face down)
- scratch resistant
- no break after a fall
- good phone protection
- one piece case (two piece cases tear apart when dropped)
- feel good in hand
- reasonable cost
- look good, no crazy logo
- big enough cut out for flash
--------------------------------
Update: After three weeks of use I am very happy with the case. The only thing I don't like is the protection for the lock button. It's easy to mistakenly push the lock button while using the phone. I wish it had a cut out for the lock button instead. It's absolutely scratch free and doesn't get dirt. The phone looks very professional. Overall very good.
