Alan,
If the phone sits in your pocket most of the time I would strongly
suggest a hard case and a good screen protector. There are the softer
rubber like silicone cases as well but I hate those for use in a pocket
because of what they are made of, they stick to the inside of your
pocket and pulling the phone out becomes a real PIA.
The sort of hard cases I personally like are the so called TPU cases.
They provide decent protection but slip in and out of your pocket very
easily. I also like the belt cases as I frequently rather have my phone
on my belt for easy access.
Regarding the Apple leather case, don't misunderstand me, it is not a
soft case. It's actually a hard case covered with what they call
leather. It feels very nice in the hand but if that's leather it sure
doesn't smell like it. It smells like Pu leather, man made leather. It's
a nice case but just not worth anywhere near $40. If you do a search on
Amazon for iPhone 5s case, you will come up with hundreds that you and
your wife can browse through. As long as you purchase one that is either
sold by Amazon or Fulfilled by Amazon, their return policy is second to
none. HTH
Best Regards,
Rick alfaro

As my wife and I were just talking about, do you need a hard shell case
when your phone is always in your pocket. So what do all of you use. A
hard case, soft case, no case?

I'm not certain which case you got, I know there are number of other
cases that Apple sells. My case has no older to it. But this is a
subjective thing and what's good for one is probably not good for
another.

Hi Alan,
I did buy one when I ordered my iPhone and it of course showed up
after a week whereas my iPhone took almost 4 weeks. In my book
it’s a disappointment and I certainly don’t think it’s worth $40.
I would love to send it back to Apple, but I decided to keep it in
a very safe place until my iPhone arrived because I did want to
see how it looks when the iPhone is in it, but I put it in such a
safe place that I can’t find it any more. **smile**. Another $45
wasted (that is what it costs in Canadian currency). Would I
recommend it? Probably not, as I said, it’s OK, I am sure it will
fit great, but it smells funny and in my book looks cheap and you
can probably buy a $3 TPU case which would do just as good a job
protecting the phone, that’s like one tenth the cost of Apple’s
leather case and I can guaranty that the Apple case is not ten
times as nice. Oh well, I guess they have to make money somewhere
considering how poor they are. In my opinion this is just as much
of a rip-off as a Lifeproof case with Belt clip for $110 or $120
or whatever they cost.

Sieghard

*Subject:* Leather iPhone 5 and 5s Case
Hi all,
In the Apple store app and it was also on the Apple site they have
a new leather case for the 5 and the 5s. It's suppose to fit the
5s snug and they say even all the holes line up etc. It sounds
nice and I'd like to get one but before I shell out 40 bucks I was
wondering if anybody on the list has one of these cases and if so,
what has been your experience with it?
