Is the capsule metal slate textured or solely design. I am wondering about how much grip this case has. Torn between this and the black tough armor.

I actually like the capsule feel, the material on the outside of the +'s is rubbery and grippy, inside the +'s is more smooth. The picture is pretty descriptive of it. I don't think is cheap feeling. Given that, if you want something 'tougher' i'd suggest something like urban armor.

I feel a nice soft hard plastic design with a sold grip. definitely not cheap looking. once on feels like a smooth surface

I'm not sure, I didn't purchase the metal slate version. I bought the clear one, which is not textured and just feels as plastic as anything. I would go with the tough armor though, to avoid what happened to my phone.

It's not slick at all. I wanted a case that wouldn't allow the phone to slide out of my pocket etc. It has a very matt textured almost fabric feeling surface to it.

Yes it is the slick non-textured back. I am super pleased with this phone case! Color and the protection it provides.

I don't know I have the metal slate and mine is the tough armor not the slim case.

I have the black case which was described as "soft" and while soft, it is smooth, not very grippy which I'd hoped it would be. It's not quite slippery, and has a little tack to it, but my last case was leather which I really liked, and thought I could get away with a cheap alternative which this one is certainly cheap, but not quite to the same "grippy" standard as my previous case. Still though, a good value for the price. I've taken a knife to make small notches on the corners about every quarter inch or so, just to give the case a bit more tactile grip, and that has worked great for me.

It is textured, not real grippy and not real slippery. I bought this for my kids 9 months ago and it has protected it .

Hey. Actually this model (commuter) is not much sticky as the silicon case goes in and hard shell mostly covers it. Also the exposed silicon is not that sticky and it doesn't create issue in sliding. I think in defender case, the hard shell goes in and all the exterior is silicon; that might be a problem. Thankfully Commuter case design is exactly opposite so it works fine.

It has a light texture. I wrapped the smooth back of my phone with it for looks but it adds a nice bit of texture for a better grip.

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.

The texture is very good it won't turn your pockets inside out and the case is snapped together very good well not unclip with ease you wont have to worry about dropping it and it coming open it is a amazing case im very happy with my buy! Hope that helps you in your choice

It feels like metal, and at first I thought it was very slippery, but I don't have any problems with that issue, in fact it doesn't feel slippery at all. I believe it is because it is slim and fits with ease in my hand and by it slimness you are able to have a good grip. I love my Spigen Slim Case and the color is awesome. I have the blue.

I won't beat around the bush but yeah, at times. But personally I really love the smooth feel. If you prefer a more textured feel then I'm afraid this case is not for you.

It has the same interior design on the inside back; a grid design. But it does not have the corner protection of the Tough Armor. That would be difficult to do with the plastic retaining band in place. I find it to be a decent case that looks good and has protected my 5s from drops onto wood, tile, and concrete. It has performed very well, and despite the abuse it has not lost its visual appeal. I routinely get compliments on the case.

The texture is similar to a hard case, but with more of a grip to it. Hard cases seem to slip right out of my hands, this one does not.

I would not classify it as a rough texture. It's smooth although I have not had any problems dropping it. Admittedly I do not have the clam problem. Personally I have been very happy with this case.

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.

I guess you would say it has a glossy feel. It responds great to the touch or using a stylus. I personally like the smooth feel it has. Hope that answers your question if not let me know.
