I don't particularly love the design on the back. Is it very noticeable when it is on the phone? Also, how much grip did you find it provides?

Not really, if you get solid color it'll probably be a lot better. The grip is way better than not having a case so just to be able to hold onto it better makes the case worth it.

The design is pretty noticeable to be honest-the right portion of the swirl is completely clear plastic and the rest is sort of "cloudy" so you do see the design.The grip is really good.Stays in a pocket well but not so sticky it's annoying.

The texture is different between the wave-like design towards the back right side of the phone and the rest of the back. The wave design is a very smooth plastic and the rest has a bit of texture to it. The sides of the case have ridges which provide a good grip. I carried it for a 10-mile run on a fairly warm day and despite sweating quite a lot, I never felt in danger of dropping it.

If you choose one of the "Grip" colors, the back doesn't have the design seen on the "Wave" colors.

Let me add that I have the clear version not the black that I see you are looking at (design might be less noticeable in black.)

Looking at the back of the case, to the left of the "S" is not clear, kind of frosty (I got the clear, but that area is frosty). The crimson color of my Moto X back shows through nicely. Doesn't hide the accent colors around the camera lens, either. On-off button and volume control are not covered up by the case. Case edges, where your fingers would be, has just enough grip.

The one I bought was "SOFT" and "TACKY", so obviously gives a good grip on the phone; and due to it's transparency the name on the back is visible. Get a soft and tacky one similar to what I have. The S-line case is probably not close to what I bought in the above two aspects.

I would not add it to add grip to the back of the phone....It will stick fine to the phone...but it wont add grip...very smooth material...

I wouldn't say alot but it's a considerable amount. It changes how the phone feels in your hands but the edges and details make it extremely easy to grip. Any added bulk is worth it in the long run! Trust me.

Nope. It actually barely adds to the bulk of the phone. BTW, I am in no way related to the company. Just a happy customer :-)

It's not grippy per-se, but has more surface friction than the phone itself (which is why I wanted it - my phone was sliding all over the place and difficult to hold). I have no problems putting it in my pocket and pulling it back out, and it also stays relatively still on a surface.

Yeah the grip is way better especially compared to the phone by itself. I always felt like the phone could slip at any moment. With this case it feels more secure and comfortable in my hand.

From my experience so far it has a good grip on my phone.Attaching it is so easy. It holds it firmly and u can walk with it attached like when im taking videos. It has a knob where u can change the angle of the phone and so far I have no problem with it.Hope this helps!

Yes, the grip of the cover on the phone is excellent. The phone is very tightly held in the cover. However, the cover itself is thin. If you think the phone will be subject to significant shock, you might be better off with a more substantial cover.

no not that much grip in your hand, what i should have said is that it secures extremely well to the phone (case will not come off the phone easily) and i've never had that case sorry

I think the question is asking, or at least I'd certainly like to know - is this case slick and slippery, easy to slide out of pocket or hand, or does it have some grippy-ness to it?

At first it felt really rough on my hands but after handling it for a while the really course stuff was worn off. Now it feels very grippy but it does not bother me anymore. Honestly I think it would be a head ache if it was on my phone case. It would be tough to get out of the pocket.

Personally, I think that the black rim looks nice and is not very noticeable on any color phone. I have a purple S4 and the black rim of the case is not an issue for me.

I think it's pretty good. The corner bumpers are quite thick, and the case cover flap is quite padded. The case fits very snugly, and does not fall out. Someone bumped into me on the bus with the phone open and I had a firmer grip on the front cover than the phone itself (because the close tab is actually really easy to hook your finger around) and the phone did NOT go flying. I've only had mine fall 3' onto carpeted flooring which isn't much of a shock but I feel quite comfortable. I have the Galaxy S4 version.

I have never had issues with the grip. There are tiny indentations all over the back of the case that provide some grip.

The case is a hard plastic on the back and around some of the edges. The front edges are a rubber. The phone will slide around on hard surfaces. As for holding the phone, it's not too bad. I've had worse cases that had no grip at all. I think the size of the phone it's self makes it a little hard to manage, especially if you have small hands. Going from a smaller phone to this has been a challenge.

Yeah I like it. It feels like it really protects the phone and feels comfortable in the hand. Should be good for the occasional drop, can never tell what might happen anytime you drop a phone, but you should be less likely to drop it with this on it because it makes the phone easier to grip. For the price it's hard to beat.

No. The edges are not slick. To me, they feel slightly grippy. Makes an iPhone 5s much easier to hold then without a case. The clear back is not as grippy, which is good. Makes it easier to get out of my pocket.
