I got tones before pixelskin. The former is slimmer but it's harder to get the phone out. It also gets stained fairly easily. But I'm most annoyed with the hard back... It makes the vibration louder.
Got a tip for us?

I read somewhere that the grey Pixelskin HD doesn't have the looseness problem.
Is that true?
The looseness problem has been fixed already. You just have to hope that you get an updated one. There is no way to know what you will get until you put it on.
Does the updated version come in a box with "for iPhone 5" on it, instead of "for New iPhone"?
So, are all cases that come with "for iPhone 5" on the box the ones that fit well?
Not necessarily. The "for New iPhone" was made before the iPhone 5's name was publicly announced, so I would guess that they changed the wording after the announcing of the iPhone 5. Although, I would say you have a better chance to get an updated one with "for iPhone 5".
Ok, thanks for your reaction!
I will look of the case I get is the new version and if it fits well.
Lets hope it does!
Could anyone post some pics of a black iPhone 5 with a grey Pixelskin HD?
