Hi, I'm looking for the slimmest case for the iPhone 4S that also has a slight lip, allowing one to lay the phone on its face without scratching it, and protecting it a bit in case it falls directly on its face. Any suggestions?

It seems like none of the slimmest cases - Elago S4, Casemate Barely There, Incipio feather - offer any face protection at all.

I don't really have any other qualifications other than it doesn't have any other serious design flaws, hurt cell/gps signal, etc...
 
Incase Snap is similar to the cases you listed but with a SLIGHT amount of front protection. I like mine, but they seem to be susceptible to hairline cracks at the corners if they're ever removed after initially putting the case on. Fortunately, incase mails me a new one each time I fill out a warranty claim on their website when this happens.
