Looking for a crystal clear hard-case, as slim/low-profile as possible.

Have read good things about the Boxwave and Kayscase Slim hard-cases.

Suggestions?
 
I suggest not going with clear. You think you want it so that you can see the beauty of the phone but at least one if not all three of these always end up happening:

1. The back of the case scratches and it will look really bad quickly.

2. The clear case will yellow over time.

3. The case has an annoying plastic feel. It might be fine to hold briefly but becomes very annoying.

If you want a good slim case, you can't go wrong with the incipio feather.

I bought SGP Ultra Thin Air (clear type) case.... I'm very happy with it.... it made of Polycabonate which is very hard and strong. Yes it do have some tiny scratches but it's very hard to see because my phone is Silver. I's almost 5 months now and it's still crystal clear no yellow.... I do believe Polycabonate will not turn yellow overtime.
But.... SGP case do have some problem with QC.... I suggest you bought it in the shop when you open it up and see the QC problem you can try the others... not to waste time sending it back and forth with online store.
 
I've been very happy with the Cimo Grip frosted clear case from Amazon. Beauty of the One is on display front and back and it provides a nice secure grip with a low profile. <$10.

I'm thinking of either getting this one or the Incipio Feather case. Are the volume buttons hard to press with the Cimo Grip case on?

Yes, a little. Probably the only slight negative about the case. Still love it. :-)

Spigen has gotten terrible reviews on Amazon.
