Incipio iPhone 5 Cases

Incipio Kicksnap

The Kicksnap arrived today...

The good:
- it's a well made case that fits properly
- rubbery interior is soft enough that I don't think it will scratch the iPhone
- no issues with plugging in lightning connector or headphones
- buttons are covered with the same hard rubber material that's in the interior, and still work great

The bad:
- exterior finish is very glossy and shows lots of fingerprints
- not a huge deal, but the kickstand seems like it will take some time to wear in... I had to bend it back just a tiny bit to keep it from closing on me
- does add some extra bulk to the phone

Overall it's a nice case. Having used the iPhone 5 naked over the past few days though, I've grown to really like the design and slimness of it... covering it up with this thick case doesn't feel right now. So, I may also get a bumper to see if I like that better, or just use it without a case. :eek:

When I picked up my IP5 today, AT&T had no freq cases. That's fine for now since I stopped by best buy and got a Rocketfish black soft shell. It's OK but I'll wait till the Incipio NGP comes out. Its that or the freq in gray.

Could you kindly post some pics! :)

And would you comment on the fit....any sliding around when you shake it? Does the bottom piece ever inadvertently come loose/off?

I did in another thread from last week. If you search for Seido you should find it. It fit's like a glove; no play whatsoever.
 
Got the DualPro from my Verizon store for $18.75 too.

Love the protection it offers. I usually take it out of the case to showcase the new sleek body though. It covers up the phone too well.
 
We got a black DualPro today....After looking at a bunch of different cases The Incipio was our favorite.
 
Got the Black Frequency. It's the perfect case.

Bigger than the Feather but smaller than the Dual Shine.

Having owned a Feather and this I HIGHLY recommend the Frequency. It's the perfect case.
 
Update: I'm actually keeping the incipio. The otterbox has three major downsides in my opinion.

1. They didn't Change the thickness. That's ok but every nanometer counts
2. The inner piece is horribly firm now. The incipio is what the otterbox used to be in terms of inner liner material
3. Worst of all the sleep/wake button is hard to press.

If you're reading otterbox, I still love the case... Just a few new things that aren't what I'm after. I'm passing down my old commuter to my dad for his iPhone 4. I'll still recommend the commuter to people that I know won't mind the things listed above.
