I drop my phone like a DJ drops the beat. This cheap case has saved my expensive phone more times than I can keep track of. The case itself is worn after a year, looking like a prop from the original Star Wars movies, but is still fully functional. When it finally breaks for good, I'll happily drop another ten bucks (checks notes) I mean eight bucks and change and get a new one. Who knows, maybe I'll be adventurous and get a different color. The lip around the cameras is also super helpful, but there's also so plastic cover that I think is sold separately that works with this case and protects the lens even more. It just saved my bottom lens this morning when I dropped my phone (again), so I reccomend buy that as well. I had two. I may be clumsy, but I'm wise.The handy card holder has replaced my wallet. I can generally cram about seven cards in there if they don't have raised characters; enough to take care of all my day-to-day needs and then some. This is good for me because I often forgot my wallet, but I never forget my phone.If you're on the fence about buying this to portect your phone, hop off and dole out the couch cushion change needed to buy it. You'll be glad that you did.
