How easy is it to take the case off -- to change the battery, remove SD card, etc?

I have seen various cases. If I want to rate from 1 to 5 the easiness to take the case off. This is the second hardest.

Taking the case off is very easy. You just unhook each side by pressing down and out on the edges of the case. Then change the battery and remove the SD card as usual.

You have to be careful when you take it off too. It can snag on the volume and power buttons.

Its should be easy to do so. But frequent removals can loosen it a bit as the case is not very stiff. Frankly, I never removed it after I put it on :)

pretty easy, just have to be gentle as this is an ultra slim case. I have removed several different times without issue.

It's not that easy. I just tried to remove it for the first time and took me about 2 min. Best way seems to pry it off from the top down.

It's not easy to do lol, I ended up with a sharp tug and a quick pull and the rubber came off the case. It may take you a few minutes but yoyou should be able to get itit off.

Yes, it is very easy to take it out, you just have to slide both locks and the battery is out.

I haven't tried to take mine out but other reviews say that it's very difficult to remove and may mess up the case. I would say this is more of a "place and leave" case. But again, I haven't tried to remove the case

Yes but, access to the usb-hdmi-mic connections, access to the battery & SD card compartment require removal of the lower case.

You do have to "work" a little to get off the outer shell (green part)...once you have removed that, the inner shell (rubber) is very easy to remove. The case does fit the phone very snug....as it should. Let's face it though...how often will you have to access the battery?...my guess would be, not very often. I really like this case and unless you need to take the cover off on a regular basis, I'd definitely recommend it. Hope this helps you make up your mind.

It is very easy. On the left side there is a circular slot that you turn open and pull out. The battery area is inside.

I couldn't be easier to remove and replace the battery. Taking the back off is the most complicated part, so if you already how to do that...no problem.

To be honest its a little tricky to get off at first. But once you figure out how to do it I start at the top left where the power button is and pull it off clockwise. Then for the Inner case pull from the bottom and push forward. After you do it a couple times its pretty easy.

No, it is a pain to open, unless you have decent fingernails. You have to undo ~8 clips around the edges. I would recommend an external battery instead if you really want this case.

If you mean the back cover that protects the battery and the sd card, sure you can break it off, again why would you?If you're using it for its intended purpose, an action cam, that little bit of protection is well worth it.Now if you just want to plug in a usb cord to charge it, I'd say drill out the back cover, much better idea and I've seen it done a few times.

Hi there Courtney. Yes you can change the battery. U will need a very small Phillips screwdriver to open the battery case.

It is not too difficult. The top and bottom have sections which come undone with a bit of muscle. The rest just unclips into a front and back. It is about as easy to remove as some of the hard plastic cases you can get. The case also comes with a nifty headphone jack accessory which ensures that even when you have headphones plugged in it is waterproof.

Not difficult at all. Just grasp the battery box firmly and pull straight out.

Not really, I mean there's nothing that comes with it. I've found that I really like having my case on, especially around the house and stuff. If you drop it, the back is coming off and from time to time my SD card will fly out too. But it's a decent little phone. I've been really happy with it.

It is really easy to change the batteries! Just pop the tab and the cover comes off, the old battery falls out and you can drop the new one in and the cover goes back on =]
