Neil, How hard are these shell-type cases to remove, if it becomes necessary (such as returning phone for repair or replacement)?
Thanks.

Then the shell style which is a back and sides, I have this type... and finally, a shell with leather folding flap that covers the front as well... I personally did not go for the leather screen cover for several reasons... Firstly, I've never yet, really should not have wrote that :), damaged the screen of any of my iOS devices, but I have scratched, chipped and generally marked the backs and sides, so these are the areas I consider require protecting. I do not use a screen protector. The Tech21 cases are unique in their protection over all other cases, they add all but nothing by way of weight and mass to your device, only about a few mil each side, yet they protect in a amazing way. Tech21 use D3O impact technology, which is a revolutionary material invented by the military to protect things, its now found in extreme sports wear and other things like that... Basically, its coloured orange if you can see anything, not the case mark you, just the D3O which of course is inside the case away from view. What it does is spread the energy from an impact across the whole case dispersing it. The material is relatively hard when in its relaxed state, though upon impact it becomes a soft gel like substance. I have broken a number of iOS devices before I started using these cases, and can tell you now that they are both designed well, Aesthetically pleasing, but, importantly add a whole load of protection without bulking up the device.

I'm hearing from my sons that I need to get a case for it so I'm looking for recommendations. I plan to carry the phone around in my jeans pocket so I want something that will offer protection without making it difficult to pull in and out of the pocket. Does anyone use any sort of film to cover the screen for protection or is that not necessary? Thanks for any recommendations.
