I am mainly concerned about how slippery a case is, particularly on the side where you are gripping it. How does this compare to other cases?

There are grooves on the side, and rubber on each corner. I am good and clumsy, I haven't dropped it yet :). How it's designed, you shouldn't have a problem. It's actually encased in rubber or soft plastic and the hard plastic snaps over it. So the screen stays protected and the phone as a whole. If i could send a picture I would. The light blue it the hard plastic, the dark blue is the rubber.

I have not had any problems with holding onto my case. I do not think it is slippery at all. The sides have a ribbed pattern where your hands go.

This case is a bit slippery but I had a different case and it broke when it hit the floor when my kids were playing with it. I've had plenty of otter box cases and they have always held up to my abuse and my children's.

No it's not to much, it's not as slippery as if u where holding the phone bare. It's a nice grip I think.

No, the case is not slippery, it should not fall out of your hand.For added protection, I place it in another wallet-type case (that I got from Bed Bath and Beyond) prior to putting it in my purse.Debra N

It is a bit slippery. I used to have an otter box and it had good grip, but I have had to get use to this case.

I don't think it's slippery at all. It's smooth with a very fine texture. The phone was originally so slippery for me that I dropped it 4 times in 5 days but haven't had that problem at all since getting this case. This case doesn't add much bulk to it at all, but I feel adds just enough to make the phone more comfortable to use. Hope I was able to help!

I haven't had any trouble with my case, it would have to be a pretty tight and inflexible case to have any problems. It's quite thin and leaves a small border around the edge.

This case has great grip on the sides. It is also very sturdy. Because it is sturdy, however, the buttons take a little more pressure than without the case. I hope this answer helps.

The backside is plastic w/silicone underneath it so it would slide easily, however the front is all silicone which is grippy. So, it isn't overly grippy yet not too slippery. Hard to explain, but I like it the way it is.

It does not have any rubber to add additional grip to the sides. That said, I have not felt that it was overly slick either. It is solid plastic though so I'm sure that given the right conditions it could become slippery.

I got the matte which only covers the back with the sides/edges being the same smooth material as the smooth case. I haven't had issues with grip or being too slippery but I do prefer the matte as far as how secure it feels in my hands.

Hi Susan L. It might be slippery because of its glossy design. The case is made of lightweight, flexible TPU.

I do not find the case to be slippery, I like it very much It is not a deal breaker for me.

I wouldn't recommend this case for you then. It is a very smooth back and even though the sides are rubber they too are a bit slippery. Sorry-

It is like hard plastic over silicone. I don't think it is slippery but that is just me. My opinion is, it is a great case. I think you can see a 360 degree view of it on amazon.

It's a smooth rubber grip. The case is rubberized. It is a very smooth texture and you shouldn't have any issue with it sliding in your pocket. Its easy to grip in your hand. It's not the best rubberized case that I've used but it's pretty good for the price. There is no protection for side buttons. My problem with it is that it attracted lint like crazy especially inside pockets.

I haven't noticed this issue at all. The case is pretty slim and smooth except for the small grip panels on the sides, but the grips are not obtrusive enough to get caught on anything. In normal pockets you should have no issues, I might see a problem if the pocket is a tight fit.

Much grippier than without the shield, that's for sure! It's not rubbery feeling though, it feels more like a laminated card than a sticker. I'm personally very careful with my phone so I just don't drop it, but I know people that like some sort of rubber case to improve grip further. Beware of cases though. They can protect your phone but a harder case can scratch the phone by itself (like an oter case). You can always try the shield (can't go wrong for 5 bucks), and if you want even more grip, try a case on top of the phone. Hope that helps!
