Contour Flick Case for iPhone 3G
Great slim fit, white hinges get dirty.
Written by BU from Honolulu
31/12/2008
I picked case this for my white iPhone 3G for its light weight and slim form factor, but I really like the flip open bottom best. …Read moreI can dock this into my older iPod cradle (though the 3G doesn't "officially" work with that cradle, at least the charging part works!).
I also had the original iPhone and owned the InCase Black Silicone cover (nice, but got a little loose-fitting and was a pocket lint magnet), and Agent18 Clear Shield (better in the pocket).
The ONLY downside to the Flick Case I have so far is that the white "hinge" and top power button cover are made of a silicone-y rubbery material that has turned from white to a dirty gray. OK, one more downside - this should be a $24.95 product, not a $34.95 case.
But it does the job well so far and is the closest to feeling like the iPhone doesn't
have a case on at all.
Four of five stars! (If this ever wears out, I'll get a black Flick case...)(6 of 6 people found this review useful)

Contour Flick Case for iPhone 3G
Flick scratches iPhone back
Written by AC from Toronto

I thought I liked the product as well after the initial few weeks. It's very thin, adds very little to the phone, and still allow…Read mores us to use a dock. However, after a month or so of wear, I had to take it off (so the iPhone would fit into a FM transmitter I just bought) and noticed four long scratches on the back of my phone, right along the ribs of the case where it actually touches the iPhone. I thought the case was supposed to prevent scratches, not cause them! On my black iPhone, they're totally noticeable. For all those who gave it a 5 star rating, check your phones and let me know if I'm the only one.

Contour Flick Case for iPhone 3G
Flawed
Written by GM from Drumree,

This is a good case, I picked it up in o2 store for 20 Euro, It slides on and clicks into place, it gives easy access to all the b…Read moreuttons and everything, at first glance, it is perfect.
I had this case on for a day, I'm trying to see can it replace my iskin revo2, the case looks great, feels great, but,
I noticed that my apple logo is now scratched, this case is supposed to protect against scratches, and now, this case has scratched my apple logo,
also, under a light you can see faint scratches on the inside of the case!
now, if the case is under so much strain as to endure scratches, imagine what the case would do to your iphone after a prolonged period of time,
It is a real shame as this case is very aesthetically pleasing, but, as you have to slide the iphone in I fear that this entry mechanism is what will scratch your phone, this is why this case is flawed.(13 of 14 people found this review useful)

Contour Flick Case for iPhone 3G
White presents issues
Written by BS from Baltimore
6/08/2008
I purchased the white Contour Flick to go with my White 16GB iPhone. I was instantly disappointed. Even though the case was a nice…Read more, snug, slim fit, just like I was looking for... the white does not match the white of the phone, making the phone appear yellow in the spots where you can see the color of the phone through the case.
That was something I could get over, and I continued to use it for a day or two anyway. After a day of it being in my pants pocket, I noticed that the part of the case that says "contour" (Where the two pieces are connected to provide the "flick" feature) had turned blue, accepting the dye from my jeans.
The case is well designed, but the white is a bad idea. The color doesn't match the phone, and easily becomes discolored. Go for the black or a different case.(58 of 76 people found this review useful)

Contour Flick Case for iPhone 3G
Slick Flick
Written by RP from Seattle
19/07/2008
My first preference was an Agent 18 case for my new iPhone 3G, but since they didn't have any in stock, I chose this white Contour…Read more Flick to match my white iPhone. I was pleasantly surprised. This tight, form-fitting case is a "darker" white color, but it matches the white iPhone well. I do wish that the silver Apple logo would show in the back, similar to the white Agent 18 case, but I'm still happy with its sleekness.
The only thing I highly recommend is to pair up this case with the Power Support Crystal Film Set for iPhone 3G. This combination is for those who want the best protection on their iPhone 3G without having to sacrifice its smooth/lightweight form factor.
However, I did cringe at the $35 price tag.(39 of 45 people found this review useful)

Contour Flick Case for iPhone 3G
Great overall protection
Written by JK from Hurricane
18/07/2008
This case fits great and makes your iPhone look fantastic. With white on white you can barely even tell there is a case at all. Ma…Read morede of hard polycarbonate that wont stretch out like other cases. The rubber hinge on the back is very strong and is wide enough to not cause any problems down the road. I wouldn't expect this case to be 100% protective during impacts since it is very sleek and there are no rubber shock pads on the inside like my old Contour Case for iPod Photo (ancient I know). Overall great buy. Great protection from scratches and of course the dreadful fingerprints on the back of your new 3g. 4 stars just because I doubt this could take a 5 ft drop and really keep your phone 100% safe.
