This is a great looking case. I really liked the metallic, yet somehow soft, red finish. In addition, it’s molded around the front of the case in such a way as to expose a bit of the chrome frame around the edge of the phone which is a nice touch. I’ve received many compliments on it. l I was concerned about the ring “button” on the back being a problem but it hasn’t been an issue. My only complaint is that it’s a bit difficult to remove the bottom half of the case if you want to use the phone in a dock. It’s certainly easier than most cases, but not quite as nice as the Slider Incase Slider Case for iPhone 3G – Black (CL59055). But the incredible appearance and lower bulk of this case more than outweigh that disadvantage.
Pros:
Goes on and off easily.
Can remove the bottom half to use a dock.
Easy access to all controls.
Fits snugly to the phone and locks on.
Has “felt” pads inside to protect the phone’s finish.
Allows the chrome edge of the phone to be seen.
Cons:
Release button on the back makes the phone rock slightly when typing on a hard surface.
Removing the bottom to dock isn’t quite as easy as I’d like.

Good looking case, great price. I was so happy the day I got it and for the first 7 days. Normally I take covers off to clean phone and rid it of any dust trapped behind. To my horror the backside was badly scratched after the first removal. Now every time I pull the cover off, many new scratches appear around the curved edges and around the camera lense. My more expensive contour cover had never scratched the back of the phone before but it is now trashed thanks to the I frogz product. Looks good, works OK!

This is the 3rd case I’ve gotten for various iPhones and it is absolutely the best looking case. I actually got it in metallic orange. Seriously, the Genius’s at the Apple Store were ooohing and ahhhing, asking me where I got it.
Fits snugly and covers all areas but the buttons, earphone jack, and screen. Covers all but a sliver of the silver bezel on the front and I believe it will stop any scratches and dents happening on the bezel.
Very happy with it and I’m thinking of getting another color. Too bad they don’t make them for the original iPhone because my wife is jealous.

I bought this based on the good reviews on Amazon, but I have been greatly disappointed and I’ve only have it a couple of hours!
1) It doesn’t fit! I know everyone says it is a tight fit, that was why I bought it, but as much as I push & shove there is still almost a 1/16″ gap at the back and it won’t lock together.
2) The red metallic paint has scratched just trying to get it on, leaving silver spots. How is it going to survive in my handbag?
3) It scratched the back of my iPhone on the first attempt at getting it on
4) It pulls up the bottom corners of the screen protector, causing air bubbles.
Did I just get a dud? I’m not sure, but I’m very unhappy with the practicality of this product, even though it looks lovely

Purchased an iFrogs Luxe case the same day I purchased my iPhone 3Gs, and at first was impressed. The case fit nicely, and everything lined up as it should. Initial impressions were positive ones. It protected well, and wasn’t difficult to remove from pockets at all. Should be a 5 star review then. Then came the bad…
I own a white iPhone 3Gs. White phones show things a black phone won’t. My phone showed that the coloring of the iFrogz Luxe is PAINTED on, and not a molded in color. 1 week after purchase I took the case off, and noticed that I had blue PAINT on my new white iPhone from the case! I was furious. This revelation showed two relative flaws in this case.
1) Color is not permanent on this case. It will rub off onto your phone
2) the placement of the color shows that it seems to placing pressure on the upper edges of my iPhone and creating a wear/friction spots on both the case and the plastic portion of the iPhone.
There are better cases on the market than this, but there are also worse cases. Final tally? A 3 out of 5.
