Is it really protective in case of a fall? Any problems using the earphone jack?

Yes! For me it is very protective only the screen is uncovered. No problem using the earphone jack

I love this case. It's slim but still offers protection. I have not ran into any problems using the earphone jack. I would make sure I have a screen protector. It has a bit of a lip but I always opt for double protection for screen. Screen protector does not interfere with case install.

It is really great. I dropped my phone from my suv several times and it was fine.The ear phone Jack is easy to use with the aux cord in my car. It's a really great case and it still fits in my back pocket of my jeans. I can still charge my phone and get my s pen with the case on

I bought the Note 3 case for my father, he always uses earphones and he hasn't mentioned any issues with the earphone jack at all (and he would have complained). I have the same case for the Galaxy S5, my boyfriend and his mom have it for the iPhone 5S, his dad has it for the Galaxy S4 and all of us love it for the great protection and sleek design. I drop my phone all the time and this case has kept it very well protected.

I've had 2 major falls and not a scratch yet and I use the standard earphones that came with the phone and no problems yet.

I prefer dont use, its very simple and the zik needs no move when sombody carry that. A damage could present like a scratch made when the headphone are together, I use the Hard case and all its fine.

It's actually pretty accessible. Same goes for the headphone jack. I've had no problems with it.

The headphone jack is securely mounted. I did not have any problems with phone connection

Yes perfectly. It has saved my phone proverbial Butt many times. Not water proof and it is hard to connect to a sound system if the cord is bigger than standard earbuds.

No, it protects your iPod very well. I've dropped my iPod numerous times and it is fine.

No, it's fine. I prefer this to a headset or ear buds. THe tubes offer "some" protection, I feel. Go with it.

I think it does provide a degree of protection. I am an electrical contractor, and do a fair amount of crawling under houses, attics, etc, and my Motorola Droid in the otterbox has survived. However, metallic dust can be very troublesome, even for the sealed non smart phones

Honestly I haven't had much of an issue with the charger flap after the first few days and I use a stereo Bluetooth headset so the earphone jack is a total non issue for me. In my opinion, cutting off the flaps couldn't hurt being that this isn't anything more than for a little drop protection and looks

Nope! There's a little flap that protects it when you're not using headphones ! I love mine and I gets lots of compliments on it!!!

No. If you drop your device in water even using the case it's gone for. The two ports, meaning the charger and headphone ports, are not covered. This case is specifically designed to help cushion a fall not protect it from a drop in water.

it's ok, it's definately not going to protect it if you bang your phone on the ground; however, for the occasion drop and sing it should hold up

It is durable. It is made of thick flexible rubber and plastic that flexs a little, so I think the case would do well to protect the device. It would spread or absorb the shock from a fall pretty well

Generally, yes it will protect it if dropped from the normal standing height of a person. This is a pretty robust case but I'm sure there are certain situations depending on how it is dropped, how it lands, etc that the phone will not be protected.

Hi there! This is a snap-on case. The case does protect from the dings and dents of everyday use, as it encloses the back and sides fully; yet is not designed to cushion from excessive drops, especially drops to hard surfaces.

Yes, the case leaves access to the headphone jack. I don't know exactly about your second question but the case itself is very slippery.

The case is a squishy, bouncy silicon rubber. The earbuds rest in the center of the rubber disk, surrounded by the wire and plug, completely protected. I drop mine all the time, no problem at all.
