Pretty simple. Which type of case do you prefer? Which has worked best for you? I made this topic to see for myself, and to help those who are undecided.

Personally, I'll go with the silicone case.

Also, feel free to post a pic of what your case looks like.


Thanks.

Silicone.  Less likely to scratch the phone removing.  Hard cases get scratched also (ends up being fairly noticeable on clear cases for example).  Hard cases often snap together with plastic tabs that can break.  Hard cases are more likely to crack when dropped obviously.  Silicone cases provide better grip to begin with and are often much easier to remove/put back on due to not using the snapping, plastic tabs.

I couldn't have said it better myself.

How about leather cases?  I've been using the one from Samsung made for the Instinct.  It's compact and the interior is soft and protects the screen against scratches.

I tried the silicone case from Sprint, didn't like it - right now I'm using the leather case that came with the phone, and like that a lot more:  comes in and out of my pocket easier, and the phone slides out of it easily, and I enjoy working with the phone when it's not in a case!
