I have to take apart my case/phone a LOT as the charging port no longer works so I must swap batteries. Is this case easy to remove?

No it is not. Its a hard shell. So if you want to remove it. You have to work your way through it, you have to start at a corner and guesswork your way to the other corner on the bottom, that's how I do it, but once again is hard.

I found it to relatively easy to remove. Just pull down on any of the corners, then peel the perimeter.

Sure.. The case comes off pretty easy. I don't know why most complain that it is hard to put on and take off... It's real simple. I have ordered 3 cases and I switch out just fine. Hope this helped on your decision!

I have never had to remove the case to plug my charger in. I do have the iphone5, but I can't imagine having to remove it for the one either.

You don't need to remove the case to charge the phone ... I don't use the carrying case section so I cant really answer that if that is what you meant ...also the case takes a lot of effort to remove from the phone ..unlike some other models that the case easily comes off... hope this helps =)

If you mean "how to remove battery", simply firmly hold batery by the end and pull straight down. It's actually very easy to remove.

Take the hard plastic case off, then put the silicone portion on first. Put the end of the hard case that houses the charging port on first and snap the other end on last. It requires a bit of manipulation to see that the charging part "door" opens but not too bad. Hope you love your case as much as I do!

It is a snug fit, but yes you can take it off and on with one hand, however I have to take my cover off of the phone prior to charging.

No I think you could remove it pretty easily if you want to. In my experience with cases a bigger problem is finding one that will stay on tightly and not break. The plastic in the Snugg case is a bit softer and less brittle than my previous Incase. I recommend it without reservation.

You will have to take the case off to access the battery, however the case pops on and off VERY easily (in a good way) without a lot of hassle.

yes, you may replace it. just youtube it, even search here for battery replacement, i did it it looks like regular battery and its easy to remove once you open the case

I've only had to do it a few times, I pull off the case first near the power button, and then near the headphone jack. That's the easiest way, and it doesn't feel like it's going to break for me.

No, if you were going to take the battery off, you would first need to remove the case. However, as cases run, this is one is fairly easy to open. Just get your fingers into a corner and work the phone out. Its designed in such a way as to not allow the phone to fall out on its own too.

No you don't have to take out of case to charge there is a little flap that has the charge port under it. Flip it up and plug it in. No removal required.

Taking the case off is very easy. You just unhook each side by pressing down and out on the edges of the case. Then change the battery and remove the SD card as usual.

No, it is a pain to open, unless you have decent fingernails. You have to undo ~8 clips around the edges. I would recommend an external battery instead if you really want this case.

Its a little more on the difficult side to remove, so I would not recommend this case to someone who frequently swaps batteries.

It is super easy to remove the phone from the case. I can take it out and put in back in all within 10 seconds.
