This is the Best thing since Sliced Bread. It’s convenience in a case. Combine your wallet with a protective case. The ID Credit Card iPhone 3G / 3GS case simplifies your back pocket belongings. I haven’t seen anything like it before now.

Featuring a slim slot for bare necessities—ID, credit card, key card, business cards— it serves as a wallet, clutch and case. Its sleek exterior hard shell has a modern look. The case is minimalist, with a simple design. Everything you need in one place. I like really enjoy carrying it.

It features a slim profile design with built-in credit card slot to fit 2 credit card size items of your choice. The form fit feature covers back and corners. Allows access to all ports and controls

It’s easy to place it on your phone when you first get it. Just follow the easy steps:

1. Peel the ez-slide film from the backing.

2. Line up the film to the back of your iPhone and apply the film to the center working your way to the edges.

3. Use the enclosed soft card to smooth out any air bubbles between the iPhone and the ez-slide film.

4. Once the ez-slide film has been applied, slide one side of your iPhone into the Case-Mate I.D. Case, followed by the other.

This Case-Mate is not able to be personalized, but that didn’t matter to me.

Just insert 2 cards. I want to keep my Drivers License and debit card with me. I always have my phone. This makes it super convenient. I don’t have to have a purse or separate wallet. I rarely need cash any way! I really love the freedom that I have not toting around a purse all the time.

It does not fit into many holsters but it would fit into a looser slipcase. I usually just put it in my pocket.

Easy access is provided with dual slots to remove your cards – top and bottom. The cards seem very secure. I can’t see that they would accidentally slip out. At the bottom of the cardholder I use the lower thumb opening to push the card up. It is easy to slide the card out.

The material of the case is not really slick, which I personally like. The really slick cases are worrisome to me. I always feel like the phone will slip out of my hand. This one feels secure in my hand.

The protective film applied to the phone protects it from being scratched by the cards sliding in and out.

So, far I have gotten several complements. Especially when I go the checkout at a store. The cashier and nearby patrons notice it. Case-Mate has developed a Winner with this product.
