Review: I've been using the Electric Green Barely There for my black iPhone 5 and so far I LOVE it. I wear jeans a lot, however, and I have noticed the green taking on a slightly blue-ish hue from the dye in my jeans. Any ideas on how to clean this would be greatly appreaciated. Also, I REALLY wanted a yellow Barely There for my iPhone, where's yellow, Case-Mate!!!!!???

Cons: added weight with interior lining
Purchased From: Online
Review: Although I like the case, I am disappointing with the added weight with the new barely there case. I had the same case for my 4s, but the reason why I loved it was it's lack of bulk, and it didn't rise up over the phone--which both features are lost on this case. I will be making a return request. And PLEASE switch whatever software you use for your security code.

Review: I love the way this case feels. It's silky smooth and fits the phone very well. It allows room for headphones and plug-ins of any size. It would get five stars, but I tend to drop my phone a lot and this phone succumbs to multiple drops and breaks off in the corners if you drop it too much. This phone would be ideal for someone much less clumsy than I am.

Pros: Thin, elegant, slick, lightweight, perfect fit, all white
Cons: Price - $30 for a well designed piece of plastic
Purchased From: Online Casemate
Review: Thin, smooth, slides into purse or pocket, no catching because of nonskid rubbery surface. Looks so minimal that it's hard to tell my white iPhone is wearing a case at all. Much better looking and has a nicer feel than the heavy duty first case I got from from Verizon (when I didn't know any better) which was white matte outside with exposed black neoprene liner.

Review: Had issues with the first one I received, as many have noted. Emailed customer service and they sent a new one right out. This one is great and like CaseMate of old. Coating doesn't rub off and it's a bit slimmer than the previous I received from them. Great case.

Review: I had an issue with my case mate case for my iPhone 5. The finish on the back was flaking off after only 3 month. Case mate replaced the case at no cost. They provided me with an outstanding customer experience and stood behind their product. I am definitely buying another case from them for my next phone.

Review: Disappointed. I bought this case after I loved it with my iphone 4. With the 4, it fit nice and snug, protected pretty well and I was expecting the same. Wrong. This one for the 5, comes with this weird, badly stuck black "cushion" which made the phone not fit right. I was able to just peel it off and now my phone wiggles around. I'm afraid if I drop it, it's going to fall out. So disappointed. I raved about case mate before now I'm less than pleased. So much for my nice custom case.

Pros: Great color
Cons: Color rubs off easily, too bulky, hard to get in and out of pocket
Purchased From: Online
Review: I had a barely there case for my iPhone 4 and I love it. It was nearly a perfect case. After almost two years, the color had started to rub off around the edges, but not horribly so.

This case is crap. I had it less than 24 hours (actually less than 12) before the color was rubbing off at the edges. This is JUST from putting it in my pants pockets a few times.

It also makes my iPhone 5 plus case the same thickness as my iPhone 4 plus the case. That's kind of absurd. It's also a bit too "grippy" making it difficult to slip in and out of a pocket without getting stuck.

Overall, the only thing I like about this case is the color.

Pros: Great customer service!
Cons:
Purchased From: Web (www.case-mate.com)
Review: I purchased my first iPhone 5 case the same week I got my phone. After about a month, I noticed the pealing. The case looked like it was 5 years old after only a couple months. I contacted customer service. They quickly told me they had received a bad batch of cases. I was shipped a new one. No other questions asked. It was a very simple process. The new one is fine. No pealing. Great case and the company obviously stands behind the product.
