With this new design it gives the iPhone a high tech appearance that it rightly deserves. Having had the 2G Cozip case I believe this is a much better case. The feel of the case is the same as the 2G version, giving you confidence handling the iPhone. This case offers more protection than ever. With the front cover that is now included, the front chrome is now protected. Without the case the iPhone feels slippery to me because of its sleek smooth design. This case does not increase the physical size any noticeable amount, maintaining the aesthetics of the iPhone.
It doesn't add any weight or size to the iPhone and has a real nice feel when holding it. Although it doesn't give extreme protection from dropping. it does protect it from everyday scratches and wear. It slips easily into your pocket and looks great. (Your not supposed to drop or throw you phone anyway) :-) so get over that part.
This cover is by far the best cover I have found. I had one for original iPhone. I was not sure about the quality for 3G, I am extremely delighted that I ordered it.
This is the best case for the 3G for several reasaons:1. Although it is not quite as attrative as the black and silver look of the first gen it is still a sleek black look when the phone is in the case4. It does not add any Bulk2. It improves the grip of the Phone3. It comes with a free smudge free protector for the screen5. The price is right, the only thing I don't like with the case is that it has a cute out for the Apple logo on the back which causes the phone to not sit flat on a table as it would normally but this is really not that big of a flaw.
Again you really just have to be looking for improved grip and some scratch prevention for the back of the phone and certainly not any shocks or protection from dropping. I was happy however to pick up a very similar case by a korean outfit called SGP (do a google or ebay search).
The 3g version is not near as good and I was disappointed to have to return it. Like many others, I loved the Cozip case with the 1st gen iPhone.
Another thing, the grip on this version feels less "tacky" than the prior version and the plastic also seems cheaper. A couple of observations: the small openings on the sides around the chrome bezel (where the front casing inserts) looks really unfinished.
i would expect a fair amount of dirt/dust to collect there and also be suspectible to snagging. This case is much, much better.
A note of warning with the SGP case however: even less of the chrome bezel is covered so expect some scratches/wear over time.
