I needa Case that protect the Glass!
i just broke my phone at walmart. i had it sitting on the counter and dropped it and the screen cracked. im sending it to a 3rd party company to get fixed. i sed to use the leather vertical pouch which i love but i really dont want to break my phones screen again so i needa case that will protect the screen. i dont mind about tossing it in my pocket as long as its not too bulky. ive been looking at these
contourcase.com | showcase for iPhone

I use the InCase Slider and Invisible Shield. The InCase protects from drops and the IS protects the screen from keys and other things in my pocket from damaging the screen.
My friend has the following case which he seems to really like. He said the bottom cuts of a small amount of the font for the dock icons but not much and it isn't enough to bother him.

The InCase Slider is a really good case but it doesn't protect the screen at all since it doesn't even cover any of the glass. This is why I decided to get the Invisible Shield screen protector to cover the touch screen.
If you order the Invisible Shield directly from the official site you will automatically get your lifetime warranty however, if you purchase it elsewhere then you need to mail in the form that is included to be eligible for the lifetime warranty.
I wouldn't really recommend any no name cheapo brand screen protectors. Pay the extra to get the best screen protector possible along with the warranty.

neither... CoreCase's are a 1000 times better and not as expensive. Both Switcheasy and InCase cases are plastic they look great for about 1 week and then they get scratched and banged up. I've had 5 different CoreCase cases over the last 3 years including the iPhone iPod nano x2 video and classic and every one of the cases and the iPods/iphones still look brand new.
I've bought a iPhone case from Corecases and a Invisible Shield (front only)... If I had to choose again, I'd buy the same again and again. its a match made in heaven !!!

I know you may have already pulled the trigger on the Incase Slider but my vote would have gone to the Ivyskin Xylo T2. Your last screen broke and now you want protection for it but, as already mentioned, it doesn't protect the screen. Sure, an invisible shield would protect it from scratches but it won't do a thing to prevent the screen from cracking if dropped again.
The Ivyskin Xylo T2 has a hard plastic cover which is touch-through which would protect your iPhone better. It isn't bulky and looks great IMHO. I don't have one but it would be my choice if I were in the market for a new case.

Apple Store (U.S.) - iSkin revo for iPhone - Black
Thats what I use. Wouldn't trust Anything Else. It protects the speakers, it has a little thing to put into the USB connector thing, lol. Comes with a screen film, two small protectors thats snap into the inside of the case itself that make the Camera Untouchable, a Silicone case, which I wouldn't doubt would protect it If I dropped it from 6 ft, and a visor, that snaps into the front of the case when your not using it, protecting it from your other "cargo" in your pockets, and protects the screen x2 if you drop it, and when you DO use your iphone, it snaps into the back the same way it does the front to not add any bulkiness, so you dont loose it, and so its easily accessible.
I wouldnt trust ANY other case, well worth the money.
