I dont have a case on mine because i hate the bulkyness. but i was thinking about maybe getting a custom made one in the future but thats a maybe. but i have no visible scractches on mine. i take good care of my phones rarely dropping them or anything. so a case doesnt have to be a option for me but it looks cool.

No worries.

I wouldn't use a case that scratches my phone but lots do even though they aren't supposed to.
Incase slider for one advertises it protects from scratches but I'd say more than 1/2 the reviews I see people write, say it scratches the **** out of back of the phone.

Nope....3GS didn't come with a screen wipe cloth.

It's either the case or you're just too rough with it. I never had a case for my Razor, which I've had for going on four years (before the 3GS) and it doesn't have a mark on it.
OK let me clear this up....I put a case on it to protect getting scratches on the back from lying it down on desk or table tops and it ending up looking like crap.
I am not rough with the phone or case but the feather did leave not so much a scratch but marks from where the main contacts with the case were.

I pulled up Seidio Innocase II and on their site it only shows the Seidio Innocase II Surface. Is that the case you're talking about?
It looks nice and with a felt lining it sounds worth $29.
Does the belt clip thing hold tight or does it loosen with use?

Thanks man!

Patrick

I'm pretty disappointed if the Feather doesn't prevent but causes scratches. It's the only case that provides protection with next to no bulk and keeps the iPhone's slim figure.
No, no, no....It did not so much scratch the case but the way it is designed there are 2 parallel lines going up the inside of the case, not very noticable, but there, and those left 2 marks along the back of the phone....If you just looked at the phone you probably wouldn't see it but if you were LOOKING FOR scratches or marks, then you would notice it.

I would def use feather again as it's an excellent case.

Mine is 2 months old and had to email them about a replacement because I noticed a small crack in the case under the volume buttons.

Def worth the $20 they charge for it...well I got one on ebay for $17 through let_me_sell_that_for_you ebayer

That's a relief! Oh does it come with a warranty for cracks? That's great for a pretty reasonably priced case. I'm picking one up from ebay for just $23 AUD.

I like the look of the subtle matte back. I'd imagine it'd make the phone nicer to hold. Can't wait to get my grubby hands on it.

"HEY GUYS. IT'S CARLOS. IT'S ME. IT'S MORPHIOUS."

Hahaha. Gotta give respect to a guy who can talk 20 minutes about practically nothing! He's made me impulse buy so many cases though, great reviews.

I assume it comes with a warranty or there is no way in hell I'm buying another one from them since the material most of these cases are made of seem to crack after some use....
