Marware C.E.O. Sleeve for iPhone 3G
Best Case I Have Ever Owned!
Written by ES from Pottstown

Anyone who does not want to cover up their iPhone but wants it to be protected and scratch free should definitely purchase this ca…Read morese. It is very nice and expensive looking and feels sturdy. The clip is strong and is removable if you like to keep your phone in your pocket. I have tried many cases over the past two years and this one stands out as the best. I do not like putting bulky cases and skins on my iPhone as they change how big the phone is and cover up the great look of the phone. It comes with a screen cover as well which is crystal clear and very easy to apply. The case holds my iPhone securely in place and does not allow it to accidentally fall out. I bought this for my 3GS and it has kept it very safe and scratch free!

WARNING

The belt clip was so loose that it fell off at a restaurant in the airport for me. I didn't notice till the plane was taking off.…Read more
Becareful of holsters/cases with belt clips that are not snug like this one. You may regret it.
From now on I'm sticking to belt loops or very firm belt clips.
To be fair though, other than that huge problem, this case was great. :)(3 of 3 people found this review useful)

- Can't use it with another case
Personally
I like this case over all. I love the quality and build. Inside of it is smooth and some what helps clean the screen. It's also durable. I've had this since november 2008 and it' still in very good condition.
The only bad thing is that if you have your iPhone right side up, you'll most likely grab the silent or volume rocker while taking it out of the case. If you put the phone bottom's up then that's no problem. For the people who actually listen to music while they use their phone ( like my self ) will forever have that problem.
Also, if you stretch the sides out by putting the iphone in the case with a rubber case on it ( like i tried to do idiotically ) then it might make the case loose and your phone might fall out if the case is loose enough. The sides actually became a little tighter again but not to how it was originally.
The case is great over all. i love it. I trust vertical cases more because I won't pull the phone out by latching on to the headphone plug , causing the headphone jack on the phone to crack.

Marware C.E.O. Sleeve for iPhone 3G
Regret
Written by MA from Springboro
22/08/2008
I've had my iPhone 3G for two weeks, and I purchased the Marware CEO at the local Apple store at the same time. It looks great, se…Read moreemed to work okay, but yesterday, when leaving my car in a parking lot, the glue joins on the clip mount all failed, and the iphone (with sleeve) hit the pavement. Perhaps some angled pressure caused the failure, but this never happened with my blackberry holder, and it was the first time I sat in my car with it on my belt.
I believe the glue to what looks like a cardboard, is a poor design. Now my new iphone has severe scratches on the chrome ring, Murphy decided that it would hit the ground on the open end first.
I now regret that I bought the device to protect my new phone. If I had known the clip mount was attached so poorly, I wouldn't have trusted it to stay on my hip.(117 of 128 people found this review useful)

Marware C.E.O. Sleeve for iPhone 3G
Great Functionsality - Poor Wearability
Written by SH from Oakville

Bought this in Toronto on July 11 after picking up my new 3G. Loved the case. The only thing that might have improved the design…Read more was a snap tab on the top to lock the phone in.
Unfortunately, the quality of material is sadly lacking for Marware product. Within one week, the corners/edges of the case lost the top shiny coating of the "leatherette" and show the second layer of dull grayish/black material.
I took it back to the Apple Store and they offered a replacement, but I didn't bother because the sales rep and I both agreed that it would just happen again.
I have a number of Marware products and love them, but this case should have held up better. No response from them when I emailed to ask about this.
Hope this helps.(58 of 60 people found this review useful)

Marware C.E.O. Sleeve for iPhone 3G
Marware CEO is an excellent case
Written by DS from Vancouver
20/08/2008
This was exactly what i was looking for.
I wanted a case which wouldnt ruin the beauty of the iphone.
The case is relatively loo…Read morese so the iphone slips in quite easily. Hold the case upside down and the iphone remains inside the case (as there is no strap). you would need to really shake it hard upside down for it to fall out, otherwise, unlike other pouches, this allows you to pinch both corners of the phone allowing you to use the sleep button as a grip to easily and quickly slide the phone out.
it is quite thin and the leather is soft and high quality.
the optional belt clip is easy to slide on, and it very secure. removing the belt clip is tricky, requiring a Pen to be inserted through the middle to unhinge it. this option is great if you want to wear it on your belt (for work) or take of the clip and have a slim pouch for your jeans (for going out).
headphones, and volume controls are accessible. the only problem with this sleek design is the chunky "marware" label on the back, which im considering snipping off!(45 of 59 people found this review useful)
