I think I will stick with the first Platinum case I got from BB. So far it is holding up well and it is easy to remove the back to change the battery if need be. Mine has no play in it so far so maybe that is why I like it. I also really don’ t like the look of that small hole over the mic and am not a fan of having my power and volume buttons covered, personal preference.
I am glad the new case works well for some though. As reviews come in I may change my mind but I really like the ability to remove the back fast and efficiently. This new case does not look like it would be as easy to remove on the fly.
The more choices we have the better I always say. ii
Keep them coming!
hahaha peer pressure ftw
so if anyone cares, after 3 days of using the active case, i've decided to go back to the innocase surface.
what i got out of the 3 days of use is that it causes more heat, prevents my battery from charging when tethered(probably because of the heat) and picks up quite a bit of lint. im also getting sick of pressing the power button. i'd suspect that after a month or two of use, the rubber power area will probably get worn down. i started using my fingernail to press it too. i doubt that would be good for the case.

FYI, just got mine today. It fits into the belt clip for the Innocase II as well. It's a bit unruly, but it does fit.
Mine came in today! It smells like burned rubber, but it doesn't bother me much. I love this case!!
Seidio is consideirng to offer the color Innocase active (color exosleleton) cases what do you think ?
Seidio
i love this Active case but i wonder why Seidio did the little fingernail cut out for the battery back cover notch? i don't think you can take the back cover off if you have the case on so what's the point? just curious.
again - this case is AWESOME regardless!
