So apparently, someone decided to appeal to my interests with an aluminum "V8" head gasket case for the iPhone 5s/5. I really do like this but it bothers me that the holes don't line up with the Apple logo or any of the writing. I've haphazardly come across a "V6" version of theirs, but haven't found it for sale. The "V6" one encircles the Apple logo and the writing toward the bottom.
Either way, for an iPhone case that comes with protective screens, the price doesn't seem bad.

Have you bought one? How is it?
I was seriously looking into this, but I don't really use a case on my iPhone. This however may change my mind...

They're nice, but I would recommend taking it off every few months and cleaning it out. Those holes will collect rings of dust. I currently use this one.

It's a great bumper and it's been very good to me so far *touches wood*. Dropped it at least three times from a sizeable height and nothing happened. It's made of two parts - a hard plastic outer frame and a soft inner rubber one.

I'm seriously debating getting one, this one's on sale for $16.99. My only problem is that I'd have to switch from my super-duper-awesome Mophie battery case that I love so much (but weighs as much as a two-ton brick).

I had one of those on a previous iPhone. It was not particularly helpful in terms of RF performance of the phone. Also, the edges were sharp. If you get one, spend 15-20 minutes w/ a set of needle files to knock all the edges down.

Saw these (bottom right) in a SkyMall catalog on Wednesday. I'd rather have the head gasket case though. That's pretty cool.
