Amcctvshop Newest Ultra Thin Metal Aluminium Alloy Bumper Frame Case Cover for Iphone 5 5s (Gold)

This case took a few weeks to arrive since it ships from China. However, at this great price, I was willing to wait. The case is all metal and extremely light it just goes around the edges of the phone, I believe the idea is that since the case edges extend slightly higher than the phone, if you drop your phone it is less likely that the glass will suffer a direct hit and break. Also, it protects the phone's metal edges from scuffs due to drops. The gold color of the case matches the phone well and it looks very high end. The case is in two pieces and comes with 3 screws. To use the case you put it on the phone and screw it together. The third screw is an extra in case you lose one of the tiny screws. This case is for people who want some protection but don't want to sacrifice the good look of the phone and don't want to carry around a heavy, bulky phone. The only down side to this case is that due to the small hole for the charging plug, adapters made to adapt (change) the old style iPhone charging plugs to the 5 smaller plug will not fit through the case. In other words, the standard 5, 5c and 5s charging cord works fine but a charging cord for an older iphone that is fitted with an adapter will not fit because the adapters are too wide. I was happy with this case and recommend it. Also, I have not noticed any diminished performance of WIFI, LTE or call signal due to the fact that the case is metal.

The bumpers r pretty but cause reception interference on the phone.causing dropped calls or not receiving them at all. I received messages.

This bumper has a very tight fit and sharp edges. Careful on the installation when closing the gap to tighten the screw. Overall, the design looks good and color matching is a little off. Not a bad bumper for the price. It also arrive earlier than said from Hong Kong.

once assembled (which turned out to be extremely difficult as the tiny screws provided were so difficult to insert and screw in even with provided screwdriver) , i was unable to insert my earphone headpiece as it would not fit into speaker outlet.it was even more difficult to remove the case.when i asked for a refund , the company wanted me to send a picture of the problem at which time i simply replied that i would not be sending any further photos, i simply wanted a refund. but agreed to take the loss and buy future cases in person.they replied with a "thank you for understanding us!"what creeps! buyer beware!!!

Visually this case is awesome. Very sleek and doesn't make my phone feel bulky. However I find that it blocks my signal sometimes. I end up with one maybe two bars. Which of course is a major turnoff, what good is my phone without a signal? Not sure why, maybe because it's metal?

Love it! Looks nice! Good quality too...sleek and chic and protects the phone. It comes with a screw so it hugs the phone.

sleek design

The case is really cute and it matches the color of my phone. I still suggest purchasing a hard and back cover for protection.
