text: I think it would have been better to have a higher lip. It seems the lip is low to the point where I am worried the screen is almost flush with the outer plastic case, and that if the phone falls, it may not have enough protection. Maybe I am worrying too much because my previous phone and the case had a distinctly higher lip that made me feel very secure. The back of the case too could have had thicker grooves to make it more robust, but those that don't like the armor like protection, this case is a good compromise between safety and sleek.
