Review: Rhinoshield Crash Guard Bumper--Wow!

I'm really considering a slickwrap and I have a question for you. I assume you have the full coverage, is that so? And did the rhino shield warp or move the corners of the slickwrap at all? I understand it's a really tight fit, I had another skin that the corners were just ruined after a couple times taking on and off the rhino shield. Thanks!
Had dbrand and Rhino shield, had no problem at all!

Looks so Awesome!
Heya, can you show us the front of your phone? Do you have the front wrap as well? So the rhino shield definitely works with the slick wrap? Thanks.
They are tight, but not super tight. I imagine dust could conceivably get in over time. I'm not a great person to ask, however, because I am constantly switching out cases because of reviews and rarely have one on for more than a few days straight...
Sorry I can't be more helpful

Can you just use the bumper by itself or do you have to attach the screen protector?
I just want the bumper.
Bumper is absolutely fine just by itself. Screen protector (and the back protector as well) can be used by itself also. The parts are completely independent.
You may be looking at the bundle with the screen protector? I believe the Crash Guard bumper alone is around $25...
This is my favorite case around. Been using them with two phones and will likely use one with my 6S+ too!
Does anyone notice sagging on the sides of their rhinoshield?
I have a daswise glass protector that doesn't fully reach near the edge, and I thought the lip of the rhinoshield might cover it, but it seems to sag on the sides.
The top and botom do not sag and snug well against the edge of the protector, but the sides don't, and I know dust will make its way under it.
Or maybe it's due to the protector itself?
Can anyone without a glass protector and just going bare screen with the rhinoshield confirm?

sorry guys, with some imagination i can presume that the bumper is ok..
have it on my iPhone 5s since a day now and yes, i can imagine it will protect my phone... but even though; i don't feel the real difference with other (far much cheaper...) bumpers on the market, right now. but ok. cross fingers.. i'll soon try to drop it decently...
the screen protector then: this really sucks to my opinion..
sorry, but it makes my phone dustier the ever and the screen looks so bloody messy now.. as if i'm having sticky fingers all the time, ha! i really wonder if there isn't any better solution out there than this one (for a better price, as well...)
btw. the back cover is completely worthless.. 3 stickers to cover the back?! when you (after you did glue the stickers) put your phone in the bumper, the stickers will definitely loosen at the sides.. so?
someone a tip for a more decent (and better looking..) screen protector?
ps. did not do the hammer test yet, no..

I have the yellow Crash Guard and it's definitely grippy/tactile-feeling to hold. Dropped it a couple weeks ago from 30-40 ft (accidentally) onto a solid mall walkway - zero damage. No bending, no cracks in my 6S+. People who saw it falling were pretty impressed with the protection!
The stronger aluminum in the 6S/6S+ probably helps against bending, compared to the previous models.

This might sound stupid but has anybody tried installing the rhino shield screen protector and then put a tempered glass over it? I have an extra tgp I might try when I get my crash guard
Why stop there. Just add another Rhino screen protector on top of the glass screen protector on top of the first Rhino protector and then, just for good measure, add one more glass screen protector and your iPhone screen will never, eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeever get damaged or scratched.
You're a funny guy. Go ahead and make fun but I had a couple extra glass protectors so I figured why not try it? I now have the plastic rhino shield on the screen and a TGP on the rhino shield. Can't tell any difference at all look or feel, and I now have the protection of the rhino with the feel and anti finger print glass.
