One more, lol. With the case off, all that it protects from being dropped, is the back? Right? Meaning you definitely not fit this over even a thin case? Yes, I have dropped my phone many times. Which is why it lives in a ballistic case! LOL
I'm not an i-phone owner / wizz keep in mind. This case covers the back of the phone I guess you'd call it, where the camera lens is, and most of the sides except for space or holes for buttons etc. as you can see in the picture a bit. It doesn't cover the glass front of course or how would you use phone. It's just plastic and I'd think not that protective from shock if you dropped it, so don't drop it! ;-o Or use this cover when your not doing something crazy where you'll drop it... go out on a date with it or to the "catching fire" movie!
