This is a very sleek case, which gives good traction and makes the phone easier to hold. However, In my case, I was removing my brand spankin' new iphone 7 from my pocket and this case came off, causing the phone to plummet to the ground unprotected. Maybe it would not have caused the speaker to go out had the case not so easily dislodged from the phone.
Bought this item because I had been using an otter box, which was bulky. I drop my phone a lot due to hand arthritis, but saw this offer and ordered it. The first time I drop it with the new BG cover my outside protective screen cracked! Very disappointed in performance.
I live the feeling of the material and that it makes the phone look thin and not bulky as other cases. The problem was the buttons, they are really hard to press. The lock and volume buttons were a tedious task if i wanted to turn the volume up or even lock the phone. I end up just throwing the case in a drawer and went back to use my old "pelican" case. If you like to have hard time with hard buttons then get the case, else don't, personally i think it was a waste of money but i kept the case for 2 reasons: 1) i was out of time to return it and 2) i have in just in case i ever need one extra.
