does it affect the quality of phone calls? does it have any rubber-esque materials that would make it difficult to remove from my pocket?

The case it is a nice protector, it doesn't affect the quality of the calls or the connectivity. The case doesn't affect the removal from the pocket unless is a very tight pocket.

Hi,first you remove the back of your phone and store it. As it is not used with this.This adds protection and I will guess and say another 50% battery life.My Quality of phone hasn't change. Its a double thick battery, so it adds weight but I can still put it in my pocket although it adds 1/4 in. to thickness. I wear slightly loose pants ,so its not at all difficult to slide in or out of my front pockets. Its an adjustment but better then recharging twice a day...has a soft rubber feel,smooth soft like hummmm .......,just a nice feel.

Phone call quality is not effected. The pocket size would be a factor obviously but the rubber is not very sticky. It is quite smooth and not a problem for me. I'm 6ft tall and wear waist size 34 jeans for a size reference.

Works great. No negative effects. Does have rubbery feel but no issues remove ing from pocket.

It adds very little bulk. Adds a little bit of height on the screen side but that will help protect it. I can honestly say that it fits perfectly fine in my pocket. I carry it with me all day at work and barely notice that it's there. Due to the gripppy nature of the material it can sometimes catch on the inside of your pocket but it is not horrible. Even when I wear skinny jeans there is no issue. Hope this helps.

Good question, There are holes in the case corresponding to the microphone holes. It doesn't seem to affect quality, judging from the voicemails I've heard of my voice left with this phone.

The cover that go's on the phone is rubber but the other part that chips to your pants is hard plastic. I got it for my husband and he really likes it.hope this helps you.

It is extremly coarse. I would not recommend it for a pocket phone. (I had a completly different use for it.)

Yes to both. The rubber portion is firmer and more durable (no pencil eraser flaking here) than a Candyshell, and the plastic back is firm as well. That being said, it has a nice hand feel to it. I haven't felt like I'd drop it. Because of the rubber material, it will slip out of your pocket before a phone in a Candyshell will, but it's not slick.I hope that helps some.

Not too rough as to mess up the screen of your phone, but not smooth enough to slide out of your hand. Its more the flipper and pocket clip that are more likely to scratch it up. I have dropped my phone in the same pocket several times and no scratches from it as of yet, though I would not recommend making a habit of it.

No. I don't think the call quality is affected by this case. Did not notice any differnce in call reception, ability to hear nor in outgoing voice quality. We've had the LIFEPROOF cases and It was hard to hear my kids' speaking.

It does make it somewhat thicker, I wouldn't suggest it if you are one who likes their phone to fit in their pants pocket.I can fit it in my jeans both front and back pockets but it's bulky and probably wouldn't be comfortable after a period of time. Hope that helps :)

Not that I have noticed. I have felt safe having my $1500 Senheiser phones on it for about a year now. No harm I can see. Save yourself a bunch of money and buy this instead of the fancy wood ones. :)

Great question- I am going to say "no" it's a non glossy hard plastic and inside is a more rubbery, spongy rubber that cradles the phone. I walked across the Brooklyn Bridge at night taking pics and dropped it at least two times while in the case and no scratches, damages, etc. I even, spilled a huge amount of pizza grease on the case (love NY Pizza by the slice) and wiped it off, and later rinsed the case off with soap and water in my hotel room (removing the phone from the case of course). I do like the case, I'm just leary of the "give" of the rubber where the home button is...but so far no issue having used it for the past few months. Hope this helps!

No problem with feel/texture. Just peels off from phone. I'd I had to give it a "feel" I'd say it's comparable to a freshly waxed car.

It's a mix of both. It isn't as soft that it will slide off easy but it doesn't have that rigid feel that's uncomfortable when in your pockets. It gives it just the right amount of coverage without extra unwanted weight to the phone.

The back cover is more of a plastic but has a little bit of a rubbery texture feel to it. I don't have any problems pulling it out of my pocket. The insert piece which is raised to protect the screen if dropped is more of a softer rubber. Overall I like the case and would recommend it, very similar to the Otterbox Commuter case.

It is a stiffer plastic and does not stick like a regular protector. I have really liked it. The only thing I'm finding is you have to take it apart every 5-6 months and clean the protector. Since I put my phone in my pocket, it will get lint in it and needs cleaning. I have really like this cover because it has a good grip that isn't slick, but not a massive phone cover. Hope that helps.

Not from my experience. The one I have has a dry feel and I have it in my pocket most of the day. Amazingly tough. I know what you are talking about,the jelly type of cover, right? This almost feels military grade tough. I would recommend it to anyone.

The back is plastic but kind of a rubberized plastic. I think it has just the right amount of frictionto be secure in your pocket but not too difficult to remove.You may have difficulty with a tight set of freshly washed jeans but otherwise it's fine.
