I just ordered what will be my 4th case in the past month. Been trying everything to find the perfect case. In a way, it's not addiction, so much as making the wrong first choice, and then the right product finally being available. I just ordered the Incipio Silicrylic (black), which is what I wish had been available on day one. As stated previously, my wife has used them for almost 3 years on her iPhones, and I've been amazed at the quality of them, how they retain their form and appearance despite constant removals and even a baby gnawing on them. Best of all, they protect the phone! The 3 cases I've gone through so far and their issues:
1. Seidio Active (black) - peeled in about 3 weeks, and despite there being more plastic than "silicone" exposed, was a lint magnet. The front would constantly trap lint in or around the screen edges. My wife's Silicrylics never did this.
2. Seidio Active (black) - warranty replacement for the first one, the "silicone" part is too large. The loose fit plus the plastic clamp makes it so that the rubber parts don't properly protrude where they are supposed to. Really, Seidio, is this your quality?
3. Verizon High Gloss Black - A cheap case that is simply amazing. I love it. But it doesn't fit my usage habits. I'm an accessory hound. I have to remove the case to put my phone in the GPS mount, the desk cradle, or just to swap batteries, so at least once a day on average. The problem is that the tight fit causes it to, when being attached, temporarily flip up the edges of the screen protector. This causes a bubble ring and eventually makes the protector come off, so I'm going to have to replace a protector after 3 weeks that normally would have lasted me 6-9 months.
Anyway, like I said, not so much addiction as them simply having the product that I always wanted. Should have it in a few days, so I'll be sure to bump this thread with pictures and comparisons of all 3.5 cases.
