Advantages: robust, simple, effective

Disadvantages: none

I paid around £16 for this item at the Apple store in Westfield London.

It is a simple silicone case and basically does what it says on the tin. It has protected my iPhone inumerable times when I have dropped it. It has consistently achieved its purpose as a 'protective' product and i am very happy with it.

It has never lost its form, still now at 2 months old fitting my phone very snuggly. No issues with the camera at the back, has alwas fitted around the lens very nicely. Case has specific speaker and headphone jack slots which all fit very nicely. It's also very 'grippy' so despite me dropping my iPhone a LOT this has been due to clumsiness not it slipping out of my hand!

Personally i think it is great value or money, i am a fan of silicone cases in general but this is of quite a high quality, with it showing no signs of wear and tear. Furthermore it has quite a snazza looking desgin on the back that, whilst not to everyones taste, I think is cool and distinguishes it nicely from similar products.

The lack of a screen protector is not an issue. I think its a bonus, the are clumsy and dont really work in my experience, intefering with use of the UI. Not including one keeps the price down, if you really want one, by one of the sticky covers, they are far more efective and non-intrusive when it comes to using the phone.

Overall a very cheap, simple, efficient and hard-wearing product which looks the business. No problems at all in the 2 monts i've owned it.

Summary: great product, simple to use straight out of the pack.
