Stainless Steel Effect Phoenix Graphic Case-Mate iPhone Case

The product was just as it was described. Printing was exceptional. The product arrived on time and undamaged, and the gift was happily received :-) The rubber insulation is a little slippy. It hasn't given any trouble, but you always get the feeling that you need to make sure it's still on. Thank you. I will say it didn't have quite as much of the metal look as it does in the picture, but still beautifully done. And placement was right on, and that's a big thing for me, because I was in the printing business for 2 years.

Yes, the description says that this is a hard plastic case, but the name steel Phoenix is highly misleading . . . I would not recommend this to a friend. I did not customize any printing on this product

The case fits the iPhone 5 well. It adds very little bulk. I'm glad I chose the Vibe case instead of the Barely There, because the rubber insert for the Vibe case adds a layer of protection without making the phone significantly larger or bulkier. That said, I wouldn't hesitate to buy another case. In fact, my chief complaint is that as soon as I received this case, I wanted more, with different images. In case anyone at Zazzle and/or Casemate is listening, I think lowering the price on these cases would be a good idea. At current pricing, it's hard to justify collecting a wardrobe of cases. If they were cheaper, I'd find it easier to give into the temptation to buy another -- and probably another after that. The image on the case is sharp, and the finish is glossy. The midtones in the image came out somewhat dark. The light tones are quite light, so I would not say that the printing itself was dark. It may be that the process tries to enhance contrast, so the lights and darks are strong while the midtones get lost.
