I had this case for my 5. Really liked it!

I of course used it with a lanyard and never dropped it.
Hubby had it on his 5 for a while until he dropped his phone and ended up with a little nick on the edge of his phone. So he used his Otterbox for a while until we discovered amazing Tech21 cases which are slim AND protective.
So, this case-mate is slim and looks fabulous and protects against scratches but doesn't provide complete drop protection.
