Buttons are incredibly hard to press!

I bought this case for my iPhone 5S recently. At first glance, the case looked fine, fitted perfectly and had no loose areas. However, after attempting to click the volume and power buttons, I realize that there might've been a manufacturing error with my product. The buttons were incredibly hard to click, and I would usually had to use full force in order to get them functioning. Protective and aesthetically pleasing case, not satisfied with the overall function and features.

The case fits my iPhone SE perfectly. I love the color (overcast and civic blue). The phone has dropped a couple of times and so far so good.

This case is easy to grip, but slips in and out of pockets easily. I had one for my iPhone 5, my wife's 5+, and now my SE. I drop my phone only rarely, but the case protected it when it happened. The back is semi transparent, which makes a kind of glow when the phone is face down. Pretty and easy to see.

alot has changed

I bought the gravel/reflection color of this case about 3-4 weeks ago for my iPhone 5s and immediately as i saw the case i realized that the color (blue/reflection) was alot darker than advertised. So anyway I put the case on for the first time and realized that the sides of the case were a little loose, the volume buttons were hard to press and the sleep/wake button worked but it was very stiff and literally not clickable. my cousin had bought the same case 4 years ago when he first bought his iPhone 5 but his was the black on black belkin case (the same as mine but different color), so I decided to compare my new Belkin case to his old Belkin case that he bought years ago and realized that there was a huge difference; his case had a very snug fit on his phone compared to mine which was loose and saggy, the headphone jack, lightning port and speakers had individual cutouts which were shaped precisely around each port at the bottom of the phone whereas with my case there were three big cutouts for the ports and speakers below the phone, i also realized that all the buttons on my cousin's Belkin case were much clickier than my case and lastly, the camera had a tighter cutout on my cousin's case where as mine was larger, like a circle. Other than all these big changes, I love that the case has a lay on the table design, is compatable with screen shields, i love that it's very easy to put on and take off, also that there is no wash out in photos when taking out pictures, also that it is absolutely not slippery and does not leave finger prints or attract dust. I would of recommended this to anyone with an iPhone 5/5s/se only if Belkin hadn't made the big changes that they mistakenly made.

No need for shake weights if you buy this case

I bought this case a couple months ago and finally had to take my phone out of the case. When I put the case back on, the material had stretched and, ergo, it no longer fits my phone. The case has enough space that my phone simply slides around back and forth, and the buttons are hard to press as a result of the excess space (adding to wear and tear on the phone itself). Great case at first (slim, good drop protection), but if you want a lasting product, I would not recommend. Very disappointed--especially for the price.

Unfortunately, The case did not fit as well as expected. It was loose around the interior edges, and did function well, nor look good, dispite the nice materials it was made of.

Does not protect phone
on November 25, 2016

I bought this case a few months ago, right after purchasing a new iPhone SE. I dropped my phone from a height of about 3 feet, and it landed on its side, where the case is protecting it. My screen cracked from this minor fall. This case did not offer any protection.
