Griffin Elan Form Case with EasyDock for iPhone 3G (Black)
Great case until the leather falls off
Written by RJ from San Francisco

No problem with scratches like other people mentioned, looks very upscale with the leather, but then after a few months the leathe…Read morer started to peel off on the corners. Maybe it's because it's in my pocket most of the time, but I'm very easy on the case. I'm going back to a solid soft plastic case that won't fall apart - you have to expect that with leather eventually.

Griffin Elan Form Case with EasyDock for iPhone 3G (Black)
Great Case
Written by JB from Saint Charles
12-Jul-2008
So I got my new iphone and all that jazz. Came to the realization I needed a case to keep this nice. Well Apple Store isn't close…Read more so I went up to Best Buy and this was one of the only cases they had. I opened it up and tested it in the store. First thought, wow. First off all this looks slick on the black iphone, slick. A high class leather look but with the feel of a hard case. And the leather adds a good grip to it. And unlike those cheap rubber cases this thing fits very snug, no dust is getting in. The only thing is it comes with some plastic screen shield, dont use this. Just go find a nice stick on screen protector. Best case I've ever picked up for any product even from my experiences with iPod and phone cases.

Griffin Elan Form Case with EasyDock for iPhone 3G (Black)
The best case I've seen for the iPhone

Saw this case at the Apple Store and there was only one left. Now I'm really glad I bought it. I wanted something to protect the i…Read morePhone. Cases are cheap and easy to replace if they get scratched or dinged. Phones, not so easy or cheap to replace.
This Elan case is one of the slimmest cases available, and doesn't add too much bulk to the phone like some of the other chunkier plastic cases. The leather back (is it real leather? don't know...) gives a good grip to the phone, but still allows the phone to easily slide into a pants or jacket pocket. The case is a tight fit, especially the top portion, which barely slides over the silencer switch. But once on, it feels snug and fits perfectly. I like that the smaller bottom piece slides off to allow docking of the phone. But the bottom never feels like it would accidentally slide off without me pulling on it intentionally.
As JB mentioned, don't bother with the extra plastic shield provided with this case for the front of the phone. I opted for Power Support's anti-glare film which is thinner and reduces the shine and finger printing of the glass (or the alternative Power Support "crystal" covers)(69 of 72 people found this review useful)

Griffin Elan Form Case with EasyDock for iPhone 3G (Black)
Excellent fit, covers chroms bezel, removable bottom
Written by AM from Fishers

The Elan Form is a nice case if you do not need a belt clip of any kind and plan on carrying your iPhone 3G in your pocket or bag.…Read more The case provides a tight fit around the phone and the chrome bezel is also protected. You are able to remove the bottom easily to place in a dock which is a nice feature. Griffin also include a screen guard that is held in place by the edges of the case. Overall, I'm very impressed by the case!
