Impressions.
What I like the most about this case is that it offers great protection by some extra reinforcement on the corners specifically. Silicone cases already provide good impact, shock absorbing technology but Amzer takes it to the next level. The entire home button area is covered up. The functionality is just right. The buttons and ports are easy to access or press. Personally I like the black color for the black iPhone 5. The two go well together.
When you head over to Amzer.com and look at the price you will be pleased to know that the case is just under ten bucks. I like to support companies directly but I do not like to spend a ton on accessories. Amzer offers many accessories for great prices. If the Jelly Case does not fit your needs, you should be able to find something that does.
My Concerns.
My biggest complaint about the case is that the sides move and are flexible. Meaning that lint, dust and dirt have a greater potential for getting trapped between the phone and the case. With that said I would suggest that if you were use this case, to invest in front and back screen protection.
One of the key features that I look for in a case is the pocketability. While this case is better than most silicone skins, it still does not pass my jean pocket usability. If you have loose pockets or use a purse, this case will be no issue as far as pocketability goes.
Final Thoughts.
This case is a step above the rest of the silicone skin cases. The price is just right. If you are looking for a simple, inexpensive and durable case this is what you need. The extra corner protection is my favorite feature and the buttons are easy to press. If this case is not for you, Amzer has a huge store front to choose from while not breaking the bank.
