I just opened my Elago S5 bumper for the iPhone 5. Packaging looks like the same packet that Elago uses for all their cases. I don't have a detailed review at the moment, but here's some highlights and pictures of the case. Feel free to ask any questions.
-First of all, it looks VERY similar to the Photive and Monoprice bumpers with the big opening on the bottom and the small buttons.
-The first thing I noticed was the rubber. The rubber is extremely sturdy, and I don't think it will ever stretch.
-The bottom, as previously mentioned, is one big opening. It gives if you try to pull it down, but it's not bad.
-The buttons are small, but they are responsive. About the same amount of force I had to use to press them on my Belkin Grip Candy.
-There is an elago logo on the left side and a "Designed by elago in California Made in China" on the right. I believe these can come off, but I don't know how. Any suggestions?
-The inside is contoured very well to the phone. The fit is excellent.
-The bumper will NOT interfere with ANY screen protector, but the back will probably have trouble with skins and shields. I just applied a wet-apply XtremeGuard shield and waiting for it to dry to try the bumper.
Overall, the quality is splendid. My only gripe is the opening on the bottom. Pics will be up momentarily.
