Review on πŸ’Ό AmazonBasics Smoke TPU Case with Screen Protector for AT&T and Verizon iPhone 4/4S - Comprehensive Protection by Paul Letho

Revainrating 5 out of 5

The perfect combination of protection and low bulk

As mentioned, this is a really great case. Of course, a case is very personal and everyone is looking for something different, but here are a few reasons why I like it. First, it's not just a hard plastic case. It's a little pliable and seems to absorb shock better than hard plastic cases. At the same time, it's not so soft that it sticks to the pocket lining when you try to pull it out. This is the problem I had with my previous case. It was silicone with a plastic sleeve, but the silicone was sticking out the sides and stuck to my pocket every time I pulled it out. I don't have that problem in this case. It's also thinner. Not the thinnest I've seen, but it fits comfortably in my jeans pocket. It occupies an intermediate position between Otterbox Commuter and Elago S4. For me, this was the sweet spot because I didn't want the case to be too thick, but I wanted it to have a cutting edge so I could put it face down without scratching the screen. All controls and port cutouts fit my iPhone 4S perfectly, so no problem here. All in all, this is just a very good case. Simple and not too flashy (which I like), but still offers good protection. I would choose this case again and not for cases that cost 2-3 times more. At this price I consider it a bargain. I wish I could start with that instead of trying the $20 case first (which I don't currently use).
