I'm getting an iPhone case but is there anyone who knows whether a silicone case is better or a hard case? Will the hard case protect the iPhone if it drops? Or will silicone be better. Silicone, because its rubbery does it fit in pockets well? Also does silicone catch lint and dirt more easily than the hard plastic case? Let me know through your experience or preference which would be better.

In my opinion a hardcase is better, for any device. Anything over those silicon covers :P. It just spoils the look. A hardcover would also protect your screen. And if you didn't know, this is THE best protector: http://www.invisibleshield.com/

Ive had both the silicone and invisibleshield and the invisi won hands down, apart from getting the bloody thing on correctly,ive had it in pockets with change,keys etc and never a mark on it and the best bit is it hasnt added to the bulk of the iPhone...sweet!

I'm looking for an iPhone case too.
I watched the videos on the Invisibleshield website and it shows them spraying something on the back of the shield first. Is it possible to take the Invisivbleshield off the iPhone if I decide to take it off later?
Big Thanks To Jamaal10!

I see,
I imagine it would be hard to position the screen on the iPhone in exactly the right position though lol

Well, I really like the way this case is invisible and supposedly great too. I just finished placing my order from the link given above by dac90 and I found a coupon code online and saved $4.99. Came to $19.96 total, which isnt too bad. I chose the free shipping option so it said it would take up to 3 weeks to ship (I already wish that I had paid the 5 bucks for faster shipping). I hope it is easy to apply like I've been told. I look forward to it arriving so I can save the look of my new iPhone 3G.
Big Thanks To Jamaal10!

I think soft one is better.
silicone case can protect iphone when its fall down
and feel warmer.
I uesd this one , I think its pretty nice.

does anyone know where I can get that "coupon code" for the 5 dollars off? I'm getting and Iphone 3g and I want to use the invisible shield... the 5$ savings would make the faster shipping basically free. I'm exited about the case. The website has some other great videos on the material they use. Thanks for the find!

I have a black incase, its hard plastic and the bottom section covers the black part of the phone and the top part covers the silver part, which makes it nice for docking, just remove the bottom and you're done.
I also have the invisashield on the screen and thats it.

I found this one, no idea whether its still valid or not though. Might as well give it a try. When it asks you for it punch in iphoneinca and supposedly you'll save 15% on your first order.

In my opinion i like no case. This is because a case tends to hide the features of the iPhone. In stead i use a slip on case when i put it in my pocket but take it out when i use it. The best one i found (which is what i am currently using) is the white leather Sena case. It looks so pro and cool.

This one worked great for me. Its polycarbonate and it has absorption padding inside it for falls. Looks pretty cool to.

I wanted to get an invishield one but it seemed like it would not give much protection from falls, just minor scratches. I bought my iPhone 3G case online from that site. It has worked well with me so far. I suggest a good screen protector too.
