Defeats the purpose of getting something sexy tho lol I've seen that case up close. Ugly as sin (and massive). I've got a really low profile one now. Just enough depth so a fall on a flat surface will not damage the glass.

depends which case you get, they make several different models for each phone... Mine is very slim, doesn't make the phone that much bigger, but it is a superior case.

I don't care about sexy, I care that it works... And I will eventually drop it, so in my case, this case is worth it.

I've never had any cases or protectors on my iPhone. It's just a phone. And I know I'll probably be replacing it every year

It doesn't cost me anything. I do a hardware upgrade and get thee new iPhone for 200 dollars and extend my contract by an editional year. Then sell my old iPhone on kijiji to cover the cost of the new one.

If anytime in that year I damage my phone I call in and get a replacement under warranty

I do the same, but most carriers have a 30 month upgrade plan. Mine is every year on my corporate plan, so I just upgraded, sold my old Galaxy S to cover the cost of the upgrade. Free phone every year!

ya thats what I did to go from my storm to my torch, but the upgrade for tellus in the smart phones is 20 bucks / month, so that would be 480.00 for a two year early upgrade. plus you just get the 3 year rate on the phone so that would be 580.00 to upgrade after one year on a 3 year plan.
