Talking The ******* Child of a Crystal Case and a Silicon Case?

This?

Far as a I look at it.

Crystal Case Cons
  1. Snaps to easily
  2. Scratches too easily

Silicon Case Cons
  1. Rips Easily
  2. Doesn't protect Screen as Good (Screen Protectors are Naff)

So does this case sort of answer the 2nd bad point of the Silicon Case?

I'm thinking of getting it, what do you people think?

nothing wrong with screen protectors ;) personally not a fan of either... My phones got a couple of minor marks where i've put it down a bit fast when I'm drunk, but I've found as long as I keep 'em it it a seperate pocket to my keys... It's fine :-)

Lol, i had the same problem as you before, trying to chooce between the two.

Don't ask why but ive found myself sticking a silicone case on my n95... .

Initially, since the silicone case looked cool on my other nokias before, like the n73 and n80 I thought it would look good on my n95.
I tried it on and it looked quite...ugly, it made it look HUGE from the sides!.

So after that it tried the crystal case and it never actually changed the look of the n95 or the size much and also retained its looks which is why i liked it so much. But then, after a few cracks and fear that it would scratch my n95's housing i then got really annoyed and then thought to myself "let me try on the silicone case again", so i tried it on again...and changed my mind about it, it looked kinda cool actually.
I think i was a bit silly in the beginning about the silicone case and truthfully it doesnt look bad at ALL, also protecting it alot makes it even better.

So now i have the white coloured one and is doing a great job after 2 months.
There is also the black one but i want to flaunt the n95...not cover it completely! lol; the white one is kinda transparent.

Hmmm Looks good, after 2 broken crystal cases I like the look of this one. i can't get screen protectors to look good once I have stuck them to my screen so a solid plastic one looks like a good idea. If anyone does get one let us have some feedback please. And thanks to Marc for bringing it to our attention.

ive had 3 crystal cases and just bought a 2 piece silicon that dead set is the ugliest case ever, kinda transparent grey???
i put it on and it looks huge, the phone, and seriously ugly....
i figure i'll just go nude and show off that beaut plum colour and when she's all scratched and dinged up buy another faceplate set with the $$$ ive saved by not buying anymore cases............

so i'm putting the call out to all the those of you that fell in love with the N95's beauty and go nude for the good of N95kind.

hey romeo19 if you have a look at the cover for the top of the phone it doesnt look like it grips very well, esp when you slide the phone open???
