Is it too heavy that it makes the hinges loose?I am nervous because I had a bad experience with a speck case before.

It has a little weight to it which makes the hinges a bit loose. It doesnt bother me because its very minor, the cost of the case was very cheap compared to most cases and it provides protection from any superficial scratches my laptop could get from being in my backpack.

I do not seem to have this problem. It fits like a glove and it doesn't add any weight.

I have not had any problem with this case. It's the best one I have purchased.

Katie, I have a Speck brand case on my 5S. It fits into the Know holster very tightly at first but then loosens up so its just fine. I know some people use their phones without a case but I can't imagine it. I drop mine too much. I think any case that isn't thin like a Speck would be too thick for the holster. Best, Richard

Pretty good. I could imagine it might have issues with a deep port case. I had a speck and cygnet case and both were fine

to be honest it's somewhere in between, if you've ever used a "speck" brand case its not as hard as the outside plastic. it's semi malleable, which is both good and bad imo. it's not silicon either though its much tougher feeling than that. I know that's vague but it truly is a weird in between of the two.

I honestly never had an issue. The case it not really made for protection as much as it is for looks, feel and functionality. I have two cases and love them.

Even though I had screen protester on and the case from Speck, after I dropped my phone, it had a line on the screen. I have tried two of the case from Spigen, it does not feel, it is protected. I had to order Otter box for more protection, but it does not feel I hold an iPhone 5s, the case is huge, I think I have to go back to Speck and always put in a wristlet. My hubby does not like huge Otterbox, so I am ordering this Speck case for him. Sadly can't find a good protected case.

Not at all! It is a regular heavy wooden case... But very good... I just trade in mine for a carbon fiber case... I was disappointed with the weight.

Oh yeah I know what you mean. Well, I've had it for about a week so far & I've used it A LOT. I haven't had that problem yet. I don't think you'll have a problem but then again I'm not 100% sure. This is a pretty High Quality case. I'm sure it'll be fine.

I have the problem where the case has cracked along the hinges. I have had my case for over a year and while it is cracked pretty badly, it doesn't seem to impair the workings of the case. It still has a stiff hinging motion, needed for putting in any position, and everything works fine with the keyboard. I know several people have mentioned they think it shouldn't crack and while this is probably true, but if you didn't notice the cracking, you would never know because it functions just fine. Mine still works like new! i love it because I can type so much faster and it's much easier with a keyboard to telecommute with my office.

That hasn't happened to me at all after a couple weeks of use. I take it in and out of my backpack a couple times daily and travel with it...so it's getting used and tossed around. You do have to make sure the case "clicks" into place when you install it. You'll have to mess with it a bit to get it secure. I'm sure those that are having this issue just didn't install it to a solid fit.

I don't. I have a Fatar 88 key weighted keyboard... It is heavy as hell. It has never moved on me at all while playing, standing or sitting.The frame itself feels wobbly but has never collapsed on me. I have to say that I am pleasantly surprised with it considering it is a pretty cheap stand. So far it has exceeded expectations.

I would agree with Kristin. My case was thick and it did not sit properly on the unit.

Hello - The case can be a bit stiff to open. You may need to hold down on the lower level while opening the top and it will feel kind of like a pop or release to open it fully. This is a good feature in case you accidentally forget to lock the top flap down then your equipment isn't as likely to fall out completely. It's part of the safety features of the case, not a malfunction. Hope this helps.

It's very flexible... no hinges though...and it does not stay back while your on the phone unless you hold it back, and it doesn't stay closed if dropped because their isn't a latch..I don't use mine anymore... Went with a rubberized case

I do not use the screen protector that comes with the case, but I do have my own (sort of sticky---gummy, maybe) screen protector, which might keep the sides down (if indeed you are talking about the rubber portions on the sides of the screen. Otherwise, yes, it might be a little looser than average. I would have to see a picture.

I think it feels a little wobbly. Once you click it all the way open it still has more movement than is ideal for me. It doesn't feel like it's going to collapse but it doesn't give me loads of confidence either.
