Rating: - Very nice but be careful
The case is excellent but when it first arrives it is excessively tight and will scratch the "metallic" bezel of your phone if you aren't careful. Furthermore, make sure that both your phone and the case are completely! debris free or you'll scratch your phone that way too. Unfortunately this happened to mine... twice!!! I thought it was clean since I wiped it but obviously i missed something.
Now that the case is broken in and has loosened a bit it works excellent. Adds a nice grip ... Read More
Rating: - Great at first, didn't last long
I got this case about 6 months ago. Other than the screen protector that comes with the case (which is worthless and unnecessary) I loved the case. Fit tight, looked great, and the leather had a great feel that was neither too slippery or too sticky. Provided excellent protection - survived several drops with no damage.
But after a couple of months the lower half of the case started to loosen up and wiggle around - this was a little annoying but I lived with it. The loosening has gotten ... Read More
Rating: - Great looking, but with poor craftsmanship or materials
I had the Elan Form for my iPod Touch. I absolutely LOVED that case. In my opinion, it was the best looking one available. I was very excited to see that Griffin made one for the iPhone as well.

The Elan Form looks really nice. As other reviewers stated, the fit and finish around ... Read More
Rating: - Good for Only 90 Days
This case for the iPhone 3G looks great and feels great in the hand. It also fits snugly and offers good protection for the phone. However, the leather covering is glued on with rather weak adhesive. It begins to soften after roughly 90 days, and then begins to peel easily. It is especially bad when the adhesive gets warm, such as when you keep it in your pocket like I do.
For a much better alternative, look at the Incase Slider Case Incase Slider Case for iPhone 3G - Black (CL59055). ... Read More
Rating: - decently protected from Clumzilla
I had bought this case the day I bought my phone. It was highly recommended by my salesperson for being durable, and I, being dubbed Clumzilla, bought it so I didn't break my phone leaving the store. I've dropped my phone quite a few times, and it's still working perfectly fine. The only thing I have a problem with is that the screen isn't as protected as I would like, and am therefore researching other cases, although I am quite happy with this one.
