I like a bumper with a "sticky" feel on the front and back edges so it won't slip around easily when lying on a surface. Doe this one?

Yes, it has a matte finish on the front and back edges, and a gloss finish around the sides. It won't easily slip on a surface. My biggest concern, is that many reviewers report that the number only lasts a few weeks or months, usually cracking and then breaking on the bottom near the lightning plug connection, just like mine did. If I knew this before I purchased it I would have bought a different bumper. Check the 3 star and below reviews.

Yes, it does have grip while lying on a surface. When having this case, try not to take it off a lot because the bottom of it is fragile and thin which causes the plastic to snap off.

Yes. The front and back edges are rubbery, but the sides are more shiny and smooth.

Doesn't not have the stickiness of the apple bumper for the iPhone 4, much harder rubber

It doesn't have silicone on it so it does not feel "sticky," it's just smooth plastic. This bumper fell apart after a few weeks, so I don't use it anymore.

No, the sticky side is on the back...good for the bumper if you're into bumper stickers....or a car window if you want the sticker facing the occupants. :-P

Possibly. I personally, would stop when I felt the bumper.... But I'm not sure if they would. You have to find super deep sheets to keep them on really well! We definitely like them!

Yes, it does seem loose. I notice I need to keep pushing down the 'sticker' (which is basically what the surface is) back down at all the corners.

The bumpers are flexible. You can slip your iPhone right in and it'll feel good in your hands. Then slip it right out if you needed to swap another color.

The back is more of a plastic and less traction but the front end the rubber sticks out past the screen and can grip. When I sit it on my dash I sit it face down and it stays fine but on its back it would slide all over

It's smooth on the sides, but has a rubber grip on the top, bottom & edges. Would be better if it had the rubbery sides, so it would be easier to hold without dropping.

Harder than a bumper. Definitely a pliable plastic but not as soft as the bumpers. Does that help?

The bumper works great. It definitely helps protect from falls and it also makes it easier for my daughter to hold the tablet. The bumper is also rubbery, so it sticks to the table and doesn't move around when you're playing with the tablet. Hope that helps.

Yes, it's rubbery and does tend to stick, but it's still a smooth surface and will slip down an incline.

Back is smooth, hard plastic, but the sides are very rubbery. No slip if you lay it on the back or face down.

The case will grip the surface without slipping. I have no regrets using this case and I'm sure you won't have any too!

It's not a nonslip backing and compared to a silicon case this textured case doesn't move around as easily..it feels good in your hand unlike the rubberized cases you will enjoy holding the phone in your hand and you will find that's your fingers will move around the surface.. it just feels good.

The semi-hard plastic and the bumper corners prevent it from slipping too much. My iPhone 5s has not slipped through my hands or back pockets yet... knock on wood.

Its kind of a little slick. The bumper guards on the sides are very grippy, but when lying flat on the back it will slide

It's not slippery at all. The edges are done kind of tough rubber. But the back and side are plastic but not slippery. It makes me think of a tank or military something. Lol.

I wouldn't describe it as rubbery, it's more like soft plastic if you will. It's gel. It depends a lot on how/where you lean it. It will slide on a dashboard but if you are talking about leaning it against a wall or something like that it will not slip. This is no OtterBox and I wouldn't recommend it if you are not very good with phones. I've minorly dropped mine twice so far and it's fine but I don't count on it.
