These cases are ridiculously overpriced. For this much money they better give oral sex or something! I mean, the funny thing to is, it's just some glorified bumper with a back sticker. How many schmucks buy into this? haha
At least the Lifeproof cases at around $90, can go swimming with you! This stuff though? Garbage.
The Element case killed the signal on my 4s. It lost 3 bars with it on. It looked great and seemed to be well designed otherwise.

Use my Ziplock bag to cover my new IP5 and it can swim with me very well. I paid around $10 for a box of 40 bags, way much cheaper than your case. If you are looking for something cheap and usable, I still have a bunch of spare bags to share. How does that sound?
Looks fantastic.I'd love to test a Lifeproof case vs your ziplock bag. haha So you can bring it in the water. Wonder how your bag would fare in a drop test? What is everyone doing looking for cases, apparently a ziplock bag is all we need.
The fact is, people paying upwards of $140 for these element "cases" and they don't even offer proper protection. I mean, if I'm going to be spending over $100, it better be an amazing case all around. All this does is protect the sides. Sure I understand they use aircraft grade aluminum and all that marketing hoop-lah-blah-blah. End of the day the phone isn't fully protected, it's just a bumper.
Just have to ask yourself, what is this case going to bring to the table?
1. Can you put it underwater? No.
2. Could you drop it on sand/dirt? No.
3. All around protection for drops? No.
4. Is the phone fully sealed off by the case? No.
5. Could you jog/athletic activities with this? No. No shock protection and again not safe with drops, screen is open.
I don't even know if the sides are fully protected, your putting a hard material up against the phone, if any dust/debris get in there, that will be scratch city. So why exactly is this case worth so much? It isn't, it's a silly case, might as well go buy a gold bumper with diamonds for even more $$$.
Looks fantastic.
Inside protective lining.
Does Protect corners from drops.
In my case, not really purchased as a bumper or case but as en extension of design.
Anyone who buys one of these cases, can you please post your credit card numbers and security code on here?
(worth a shot, if you're stupid enough to buy a $160 case and justify it by calling it a "premium" case, maybe you will fall for this too...)
I'm sorry but you're spending $170 to make the phone look worse. Your not going to tell me surrounding the phone with a metallic bumper makes it "look" better. The phone looks like one of those bumper cars at the amusement park. If you have money to burn on nonsense like this element case, then just use the phone nude in it's finest form and buy another if you break it. Can't try to use "oh but the corners are protected." Not a valid point at this price range. Go nude if money isn't an issue, cause to be honest there's no such thing as a case that improves on Apple's design in any way.

1. Are you a diver? Do you use your phone why swimming or in the water?1. Can you put it underwater? No.
2. Could you drop it on sand/dirt? No.
3. All around protection for drops? No.
4. Is the phone fully sealed off by the case? No.
5. Could you jog/athletic activities with this? No. No shock protection and again not safe with drops, screen is open.
anyone knows does it comes with matte or glossy finish?
At $160, it's no longer protection. You need protection for your protection. Guaranteed you'll drop and scuff your phone's protection a couple of times over the phone's lifetime. Not to mention normal wear and tear with aluminum. Spending (theoretically) $320 - $480 over 2 years for signal depleting metal cases is silly.
Plus, looking at the pictures, it doesn't appear the top part adequately covers the face. And, it looks like you have to have a back over.
This case is classic form over substance.
