I was previously using the Acase(TM) Superleggera sunset fit case foriPhone 4 with 2 Screen Protector (Orange) AT&T Only, but decided that it was time to give another case a try, especially another case under $10. Here are a few quick likes and dislikes about this case:

LIKES
==========================
+ Made from thicker “rubbery” plastic (thermoplastic polyurethane as another reviewer pointed out), which makes the phone feel well protected
+ Larger than average cut-out for the camera hole, which eliminates the problem some users have reported when using the flash on some other cases
+ Apple logo is visible on the back, which may be a plus for some
+ All the major functions of the phone are accessible with the case in place
+ The edge of the protector comes up the side and over the front of the phone to create a slight rim, which protects the front edges from getting scuffed (the Acase(TM) Superleggera sunset fit case foriPhone 4 with 2 Screen Protector (Orange) AT&T Only did not have this slight rim)
+ Included screen protector is the standard 2-step process now included with most cases (remember to put the screen protector on before snapping on the case)
+ While the screen protector may have some slight bubbles initially I found that they work themselves out over time and I experienced the same thing with all other screen protectors

DISLIKES
==========================
- Although not bulky by any means the case is thicker than some other options (the Acase(TM) Superleggera sunset fit case foriPhone 4 with 2 Screen Protector (Orange) AT&T Only was thinner)
- Some docks may require that you have to remove the phone from the casing to fit onto the cradle
- Amazon Basics logo is printed on the back of the case
- Not in line for any fashion award, but it’s under $10 and that’s the point of an Amazon Basic product

Overall this case has a lot more positives than negatives and is a great buy for under $10. If you’re looking for a case that will protect your iPhone, is durable, makes the various features accessible and fashion is not a priority then this is the case for you.

********* I received this product for free as part of the Amazon.com Vine program. Nonetheless, I review the product in the same manner as I would if I had purchased it myself. *********

This is a nice protective case for the AT&T and Verizon iPhone 4. It comes with a small cleaning cloth and a screen protector, which I don’t use (screen protector). The material of the case is pretty flexible and it’s not too thick. It’s not a slider case – you basically place your phone in it and then adjust it around the phone – very easy. You can access all of the controls and charge your phone while in the case. I think the only two colors available are smoke and clear. I also like the way it feels in my hand because it’s not a slippery case and very easy to hold.

I’ve had a number of cases for my iPhone 4 so far and this is by far my favorite. I always thought I liked the soft rubber cases better but after using this case I have to say that this is much more convenient. The surface of the case retains the hard feel of the iPhone itself which is really nice, and it also makes it very easy to slip in and out of a pocket (the softer cases sometimes create a lot of friction and are harder to put away or get out). Also the case is formed exactly to the shape of the phone so the phone doesn’t ever slip out of the case (which is an issue I had with one soft case).

The only drawback is that the hard case makes the phone almost incompatible with my alarm clock radio – the solid extension of the case on the bottom makes it so it almost can’t connect (which means it won’t charge or play music through the speakers). If I push the phone down just right it works, but it’s not as seamless as it was with the softer cases. This isn’t a fault of the case but I still took one star off for that since it makes it slightly imperfect for my purposes.
