Any signs of the loose sides that affected the iPhone 4 cases?

The only thing I could possibly complain about is the area above the lightning port. It is not super tight since it is thin there. With my thumb, I pushed on that portion to sort of form it over before putting my phone in. It now lays straight and snug against my phone.

No loose sides, everything fits nice and snug.
 
Just received my Magpul for my iPhone 5 from the seller "botach" on ebay. Excellent case and fast seller actually, no problems at all.

Where did you order the PMAGS from ? The thing that impressed me about DSGArms was they didn't jack up their prices like everyone else did and still have them listed at the regular price.If I hadn't stocked up a few years ago I would defiantly order some more from them.
Magpul said if any of their "Authorized dealers" jacked prices up, they would stop selling to them.
 
I've been using the case for a few days and it's one of the best cases out there. Definitely the best for the price. The case feels more like a hard case than tpu and the fit is perfect. The texture is great, very grippy and the ribs also help with the traction.
 
Does anyone know how easy this is to remove and put on? I want to use this temporarily while doing sports.
 
Just received my case and have to echo the other's comments - it is a great case.

Fits like a glove with no sagging or bulging. Surprisingly thin and feels great in the hand. No issues with operating any of the buttons and the case does not obstruct the earbud port, speakers or ring/silent switch in any way.

I feel like I have a brand new phone :). Well done Magpul!
 
Drop Protection

Does the iPhone 5 Magpul case provide drop absorption or is the plastic too hard?

Thanks
 
I bought one of these in black beacuse I have 100 cases and it was inexpensive.

Not for me. Just a piece of semi rigid TPU with little to no drop protection. I didn't expect an Otterbox but I did expect a little more.

I also found it to be slippery. Not as bad as a hard plastic case... but I thought the grip was its main selling point.

For $13 not a bad case.

Where are you guys finding these cases for sale at the normal non jacked up prices? There back ordered on every site and are 25 bucks on amazon 30 on eBay I've seen as high as 40 bucks for this case? I want one but I'm not paying double awesome case or not.
