Style: 9

Though it’s not as elegant as some other cases you’ll see here on CaseScoop, this silicone skin is attractive and has a way of making the iPhone itself look even better. The side grips even add a sporty, more interesting look.

Protection: 8.5

Everything besides the touchscreen is protected by the double layered silicone. A simple answer is to also purchase a Proporta screen protector. That way every aspect of the device will be accounted for and protected with the utmost care at an affordable cost.

Functionality: 10

I’m not lying when I say you’ll have complete access to all basic functions of the iPhone 3G. Take a look at the pictures; everything is accounted for.

Conclusion: 9

I am a big fan of this silicone skin. It’s attractive, protective, and completely function-accessible while still affordable. I’m sure not every customer out there will be a fan, but I definitely recommend it to those interested in a skin for the iPhone 3G.
