Pros: Slim and sleek design. Good coverage and protection.
Cons: This was the perfect case for the first generation iPhone
Purchased From: This website
Review: Loved loved loved this case for the 1st Gen iPhone. The solid leather coverage, protection and cushioning in a relatively slim and sleek design was perfect. Unfortunately, this case does not work well with the iPhone 3G/3GS. The side arms snap after some use and renders them unusable. Hoping to see a 3GS version soon.

Review: This is the best designed iphone case available anywhere. The phone screen gets full protection and makes for a compact package. It does not work with the 3G though. If you squeeze in a 3G it will break within days.

Review: Used this case on my 1g for two years. It is far and away the best case I've seen. It does not, unlike what case-mate says on the web page, fit the 3g phone "correctly." Within 2 months of using it with my new 3g phone, it broke. But it's a great case. Case-Mate: please rush the development for the 3g.

Pros: Slim, covers screen, easy access, very protective
Cons: Does not fit 3GS
Purchased From: online- your Website
Review: This one-of-a-kind case is the only one I've ever been satisfied with, and I've tried several. I carry my iPhone in my shirt pocket for easy access to answer calls or to use the apps that make my work as a physician a lot easier. The case is slim and very protective, and I like the way the screen is covered but still easily accessible without requiring a screen protector (which I detest). That was all when I had an iPhone 1G. Now I have a 3GS, which fits loosely and insecurely in the case, so I strongly second the requests of all the others who have asked for a case like this for the 3GS. I see that it is under development- but please hurry.

Review: When closed the case protects my iPhone's screen and docking port while in my purse. The case has small holes for the speakers on the bottom of the phone so I can listen to music with the case closed or easily hear an incoming call. The case is also sleek and stylish.

Review: Awesome case, My son had six different caces to try and this was the most protective for me. I am a landscaper and drop, kick, hit and misstreat my phone's and it made it two years. Now I just bought the new 3GS and Case mate dose not make a case for it. I have already bought three that are just ok, But just not as sleek and form fitting as this flip case. Please make one for the new 3GS.. Of course the old one dose not fit the new ones one.. hum

Review: This case has worked well for me. I upgraded to a 3G phone about a year ago, and the case has worked fine for me. The top right back corner stuck out a bit at first, but quickly conformed to the slope of the phone. Highly recommend the case for 3G phones!

Pros: Slim, stylish, doesn't get in the way

Purchased From: Case Mate Website
Review: I had this case for my first iPhone and I loved it. I even recommended it to a few friends who bought it. Then, I got a 3G and the case fit poorly and it wasn't worth using it anymore so, I sold it with the phone. I bought this case in the first place because it was exactly what I was looking for and no one else made anything like it. Now, I can't get one for my 3G because no one makes anything like it.

Pros: Easy access, best protection
Cons: Wears down over time
Purchased From: ATT
Review: I'm on my second case for my phone (after two years) and really love it. It's the only case which makes it easy to put in my pocket, completely protects the screen, and is easy access. Plus it looks cool when I do Star Trek type flip open maneuver. The leather hinge could be re-enforced because it wears down with repeated openings, but mine held out quite long before needing replacement.

I'm upgrading to the 3Gs and just saw they don't have this case for it yet. What's up? Help a guy out.
