Default Iphone Cover

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
