Looks awesome. Got the blue/gravel case. Fits perfect no complaints having just put on the case tonight.

Maybe if you take an xacto knife to it.

This is my favorite case I have found for the iPhone 5 and my only gripe is the size of the camera hole.

I was finally able to track down an iPhone 5 last night! iAm in Love!

Right now I have a Candy Shell on this bad boy (white with black - like I had on my old iPhone), but I'd like something new. I'm really leaning towards the Belkin Grip Candy Sheer but I have no idea on what color to get, I haven't been able to find one in store anywhere.

Could someone post a couple pictures of the black/green, teal/grey and black/red(?)? I've been looking on Amazon but a review said the colors are misrepresented. Thanks for the help all!

I have the same color but in my area target has them.

Thanks zero, maybe I'll make a trip to Target on Friday. I got my iPhone at Beat Buy but they only had them for the 4S. I appreciate the tip!

Thanks for the info!

Just wanted to post an update... I picked up the Black/Neon Green Grip Candy Sheer yesterday and had to take it back to Target today... The cutout at the bottom of the case will not fit the 30 pin to lightning adapter (with cable)... The adapter has a slightly larger plastic piece that wraps around the actual lightning connector... I was really bummed out but I ended up going with an Otterbox Commuter instead... Not as low profile, but still a very nice case!

Picked this case up last week in Teal/Grey and I love it!

Anyone having discoloration issues? I have the black and free and the green got dirty but doesn't clean off

This case is solid. I got the Black/Ice version, and today marks the 6th time a person has asked me where they can get one too.

**Garz** · 11-29-2012, 01:24 AM

Yeah mine is starting to do that too

**tyler_zyco** · 12-11-2012, 01:16 AM

Yeah okay my white rim is grey now.

Can you actually see through any of these cases? If so, which colors. I've read various things that say you can and can't. Want to protect it but still be able to see the Apple logo.

anyone have a good wallpaper that goes good with this case? I am looking for a wallpaper that makes the green/black pop

I'm getting the opposite of discoloration: the color is starting to come off. I have a blacktop/gravel colored case. The dark color on the bottom edge has already started to wear off, so part of the case now looks light brown rather than a slightly transparent black. I've used the case less than a week. Some of the photos on amazon also show that the color rubs off very easily.

That, and the larger than necessary camera hole are the only issues worth noting. The bottom edge of the case is not quite as rigid as the rest of the case as well.

This is the best case I've used so far for the IP5, by a wide margin.
