I have trouble holding the iPhone 5s: it slips out of my hands. I need a case that is somewhat "sticky", not hard plastic or rubber. Is this sticky?

No, it's not sticky. It's not very hard either. On top of a table will not slide. It just does the job for me.

It's stickier than the iPhone itself but not as sticky as soft rubber. It's hard, sleek rubber. I hope this answers your question.

No, I wouldn't say that this case is sticky. It is smooth plastic which is somewhat elastic so that it slips over the phone. It's not sticky like a gel type case would be.

It is such a simple mechanism, i.e. a pair of springy pincers, that is works well with my 5s or really most standard phone sizes. I could see a really thick case being an issue perhaps, like a Otterbox, but I have a fairly light case and works fine.

The clear hybrid case does have some grip to it. It is not slippery but don't expect some awesome anti slide material. I've had this case for a month and has not slipped out of my hands. Keep in mind; this case will protect your phone from scratches and not from drop damages.

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.

It's kind of a mix...it's kinda stretchy but just so you can get it onto your phone. Otherwise it's hard and smooth. It's not like its rubbery or sticky like some cases can be.

Yes, it is a hard case. I have used those rubbery cases and they are useless. Also, those rigid, plasticy cases and they are junk. This one is firm, but feels good in your hand and also provides good protection for your iphone 5.

I do not experience any issues with this case on my iPhone 5S. I am familiar with a fuzzy image that some other cases can cause. This one doesn't do that to me.

Yes this case will get the job done. Just dropped my iPhone 5s for the first time yesterday & was so happy I had my case on. Dropped it onconcrete from about waist level, there is a small scratch on the case but u can't really see it since the case is clear. I plan on buying another case, soon, just to have an extra.

No, I didn't think or feel like it would slip from my hands. But, I didn't feel confident in the way the iPad is held into the case. (Only be small tabs). When I opened it, I felt like it would just slip out. I only used it one week, then bought something else.

No. Not slippery. It has that smooth rubbery texture except for the faux metal back. I would add that though it's not slippery, it slides easily in and out of my pocket. It's a very well designed case.

How to get the case off? With great difficulty. I think this case was not even designed for the iPhone 5S. I don't know how it came into the world, but it is misbegotten. Amazon should not deal with the producers of this case. Return the case now. immediately.

No. The edges are not slick. To me, they feel slightly grippy. Makes an iPhone 5s much easier to hold then without a case. The clear back is not as grippy, which is good. Makes it easier to get out of my pocket.

Yes, It is somewhat slippery. Not as bad as an Otterbox, but my Ballistic on an s3 was much less slippery. I have had this one barely a week and it shows signs of wear on the plastic already. At least it wasn't terribly expensive.

I know what you are talking about, my Otter case had that problem. With this one I don't have that problem, I think is because it doesn't have the sticky formula like other cases do in order for them not to slide in the dashboard of the car.

It doesn't make it slippery at all. I actually think it's less slippery than other cases that I've had. I have really small hands as well, and I don't have any problems.

I've never had it slip out my hand lol. It does get a little slick if your hands get really sweaty (working out or something) but I've never really had an issue with that. I love this case!

The one I have is a rubbery type plastic, but it is not sticky or tacky. I slide it into and out of coat pockets all the time. And also carry it in a small backpack also. It is a great case, and just is like a Otterbox but coast a lot less. I would buy it again!
