Does this phone case rise up around the edges of the entire phone? Meaning, that if it were to fall face first ont the ground, would it be protected?

Yes the edges are protected. The plastic is hard plastic not the soft impact plastic but very good quality

Yes, I have dropped my phone many times and the case protected it. But, the case itself will break.

It will protect it from drops on a flat surface, the edges are raised. If you were to drop it, the rubber or plastic of the case would hit first. It won't protect against scratches from keys or other items in your pocket though, there is no screen protector.

The case leaves a thick lip around the screen, so if you drop your phone the screen won't touch the ground and when you leave it face down the case raises the phone to prevent scratching the screen

It only protects the small part around the front. The blue part you can see from the image posted. My phone has landed screen down on concrete twice and that small part of the case has Protected my phone screen from breaking. Not sure if I'm making any sense... The small rim of the case that covers the front screen has protected it from breaking, it lands on a flat surface so what hits on the phone is the case covering in the front....

Yes! I have dropped my phone several times from heights up to about 4 feet and the phone has been completely fine. I've had this case for over a month now and am still extremely pleased.

The edges of the case DOES stick out a little bit past the screen. However, I dont feel like its out far enough. This phone case will take impact pretty well around its edges/corners and the back ...but I think if it were dropped "face first", the impact would still do some damage to the screen.

Back of the case is rounded similar to phone. When in the case, face-up you can actually spin the phone like a top as the plastic on the back is not rubberized. The edges barely covers the face of the phone. If you very carefully balance it, you can stand it on the edge but not sure it is an ideal viewing angle.

I suppose that it potentially could - there is a slightly raised lip around the front of the phone. So if it fell face down, the screen shouldn't actually hit the ground.

This case has a lip around the screen so if it were to hit the ground face first the screen will remain untouched. I don't use screen protectors because they are a pain in the butt to install and they sometimes take away from the resolution. Just use the phone without one.....that's just my opinion of course....Overall it's a great case, I've dropped my phone a handful of times and I'm surprised at how well it absorbs shock due to how thin it is.

It is ever so slightly raised above the phone body. When laying face down the lip of the case touches the surface not the screen. Hope this helps

No. It don't not cover the screen, and the edges are flush with the edge of the phone, so the screen has no protection if you drop it.

I was wondering about that too. The case I got when I bought my iPhone has raised rubber edges around the front to keep the screen from touching the ground if it falls.

It protects it greatly. The sides are very spongy so when phone falls ( if you happen to let fall purposely), it will be well protected. I have never dropped my phone but there is always a first time for everything right?

The edges of the case are slightly raised, so if you dropped it face down for a very short distance, the case might protect the screen. You would still be pretty lucky if it saved the screen in that situation, though.

Its a slim case so no it doesnt go over the edge. So yes.. the screen touches the surface when face down. It's really thin plastic as well.. not much protection for such an expensive phone.

No. The case has raised edges on the screen side to protect the screen in a fall. It also allows you to set the phone screen-side down on a table or dashboard without sliding.

Kiiiiiinda? I'd say "not really," but if you're setting the phone on a really grippy surface or put something behind the tip of the back flap to keep it from sliding, then it will stand up. If the cover is completely folded over, the "spine" doesn't make an angle worth talking about.I found propping the phone up in portrait mode is good when you are using the speaker or want to easily hear the phone ring.I too love this case ;)
