Material - TPU border w/ PC back. The actual case feels pretty solid, when I first held it I had a good firm grip on it, no slipping, the TPU borders have a solid feel and not plastic like the ol S-line TPU. The PC back looks and feels good, some users may have some "wet" spot issues where if you are using a screen protector it will stick to the back. Also if you press on it hard enough it will touch the back and even without a screen protector it will give a wet spot look but I never had that problem as the PC back is lifted high enough it doesnt touch. If it does touch then I would be putting a bit of pressure on it. This case is also a dust magnet to the max. Also I noticed two "melting points", thats where they seal the case but all the others are pretty smooth, the two markings make it look like another cheap case, not a biggie unless you're looking right at it.

Grip - Holding the phone the width reminded me of the official LG bumper, so for those who though the LG bumper gave it a bit of a bulk then you may feel the same with this, but honestly when I had the LG bumper I didn't like the grip very much but this one is actually good and maybe a little bit slimmer.

Buttons - When I went s-line tpu, official bumper, mybat hybrid to this, they all had different button pressure sensitivity. I though the s-line tpu was the worst but this case is the new king of worse button pressing hahaha... well the button is solid, its hard and it kinda feels like a capacitive button as in you press it, it doesn't give any feedback. So while other cases give off a click or you feel button actually going down, this doesn't. I only had 3 gripes and this is one of them. You'll eventually get used to it but when/if you go back to another case it is a noticeable difference.

Fit/Opening - Pretty snug fit, once the phone is in there is no gaps or offset. The PC back does not have a lip but they did add raised corners when you're placing it on its back, that gives it a little bit more of the slim look. All the opening looks properly measured. Only gripe I have is while the case can take my two ear phones, it doesn't fit the my aux cord I use in my car. With all the other cases it fits fine but this one is just a little off. Sure I can just get a BT adapter and whatnot but the fact is the cord worked for all the previous cases and not this.

Style/Look - Looks good, feels good, it is what I was looking for, a case with a clear backing and they made one. They could've tweaked a few more things but for the average user it is what they're looking for.

Protection - I think this case offers more protection than a regular TPU case but its certainly no ballistic or seidio case in which is bulky and will survive a 4' fall. This may absorb most of the shock but a big drop would probably break something on the phone.

=========================================

Pros: Looks good, feels good, clear backing.

Cons: Button pressing (lack of feedback), bigger 3.5mm cords have less clearance, dust magnet. (3 Gripes: Buttons!!, Melted spots, aux hole less clearance)

Price/Value: 8/10 - It is what I was looking for in a case, protection + clear backing. Pricewise I would probably say $9.99 value rather than the $13.99/24.99 they're going for.
