I need a new cover as mine looks awful. I'd also prefer one that came with a screen protector...although not sure that I need one as mine is fine!

Any tips? I'd like it to be as low profile as possible.

Covers are very much a personal choice. Some perfer their phones to be naked, some wouldn't be without.

Currently got a SwitchEasy CapsuleNeo on mine. Only criticisms I have is that the back isn't quite as snug as I'd like, and I really need some more dock adapters so I don't have to keep moving the one they supply around, but it's saved my phone from one drop already.

I'm tempted about going naked, we'll see though.

I, and a few on here, have a cover from www.gelaskins.com. No need for a screen protector IMO - I've had mine over a year now and doesn't even have those tiny surface scrtaches that most phones get. The screens really are awesome on the iPhone.

I'll keep the Capsule, but I'm thinking of pulling the protector. It's an absolutely terrible gunk magnet - one touch and it looks awful. They can make oleophobic screens now, so why not the same with protectors.

well i've had my incipio cover since i got my phone in july and its as good as new (apart from the fact the colour got a bit dark after i had it in the pocket of a new pair of trousers!)
these things wont change unless you drop it i reckon - pretty solid plastic (but light-weight) so it'll last

oh, and the other bonus is it keeps the back of the phone looking brand new ;D

wait til you drop it, you'll change your mind then!

Rob, ask Emma if you can see hers, she has one of those really clear thin ones, looks pretty good :)

Incipio Feather for me too :)

Low profile and comes with a screen protector if you want to use it. Isn't going to offer massive amounts of drop protection but will certainly give scratch protection. Costs about £12 too so pretty cheap as well.

I just use a Gelaskin, same as Belmit. Yes it doesn't offer me drop protection, but I much prefer the way it looks without a full cover so I just try to make sure I'm extra careful with it.
