I have this case, too, and it's fine, but I noticed the problems with the plastic back scratching as well. The strange thing is that the back of the Maxx is very scratch resistant anyway. I have gone back to the bumper case. The only thing about the bumper is that it makes the buttons a little harder to press compared with no case and with a case like the Griffin Reveal. Still, this phone is heavy enough - putting a case even as light as this one makes it feel like you're carrying an anchor in your pocket.
