So far I've had two incipio feather cases. The first one I had for ages well over a year with no problems whatsoever, then recentley I decided to clean my phone and took the cover off and managed to snap the damn thing in half! So I bought a new one and the matte finish started peeling off to reveal a shiny surface after one week of use (not cool). Although I prefer what's underneath, that definitley shouldn't be happening, and can happily say that this will be the last time I purchase any of incipio's products. I'm now looking at the incase perforated case or anything else for that matter...
