Apple iPhone 3G Soft Polycarbonate Slim fit Case -Black (Cozip Brand)Plus Smudge Free Screen Protector-Made in Korea

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. It does not add any Bulk
2. It improves the grip of the Phone
3. 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 case
4. It comes with a free smudge free protector for the screen
5. 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.

Had this case for a month. The top piece is ugly so I didn't use it. The sides of the bottom wrap around the chrome and the result is scratched chrome from friction. The bottom piece is meant to fit with the top, but when you don't use the top, it's unfinished looking. Go with the Elago case - it's what the Cozip first gen case was for the old iPhone.

Like many others, I loved the Cozip case with the 1st gen iPhone. The 3g version is not near as good and I was disappointed to have to return it.

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. Another thing, the grip on this version feels less "tacky" than the prior version and the plastic also seems cheaper.

I was happy however to pick up a very similar case by a korean outfit called SGP (do a google or ebay search). This case is much, much better. 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. A note of warning with the SGP case however: even less of the chrome bezel is covered so expect some scratches/wear over time.

Compare this to the items you get from AT&T and you will see this is one great bundle. The polycarbonate is very nicely fitted to the iPhone and provides excellent protection for the iPhone without bulk. Also, the polycarbonate is a bit more slick than the silicon case I purchased from AT&T and so it works very well with the holster I purchased. Finally the screen protector is the best one I have used yet. I finally can stop cleaning my phone every few minutes because of the smudges on my phone...

My only complaint about this case is I don't like the logo hole on the back of the phone or the SIM card cutout. I don't care if the logo is seen, but I care if I get scratches there and the same applies to the space to remove the SIM card. I will probably never remove the SIM card from my phone... Neither of these are a big deal, but that is why I couldn't give it 5 stars.
