How is putting the case on/removing it? I have to change the battery in my phone every day, and am wondering if it would be convenient for that.

It is a little difficult and kind of annoying sometimes (for me). The only problem I have is getting the first part to squeeze into the outer shell.

I didn't have a problem getting the case on. I don't take it on and off every day. Not sure if it would be good for that.

Its a pain to get off. The rubber will eventually rip from removing it each day. I wouldn't recommend an otter box if u are going to remove each day.

No, recommend the extra charger you can connect to your computer so you don't have to continue removing it that lead to damage to the case. Also your battery may need to be checked because you have to change so often.

It's not hard to push the volume up/down buttons, although you don't really need to since you can change the volume in Android as well. As to the power switch, it's a little harder, but I think that's a good thing. This means you can place the phone face up on a hard surface without any risk of accidentially powering it off. Any difficulty with the power switch pales in comparison with the benefits of the case. It's the thinnest cellphone protective case I've ever used, and I know by experience, it protects well.

Yes, I've changed the battery some times - actually it doesn't last much.The battery remains somewhat pressed by a spring, try to pull it with a metal wire around it. It shoudn't be hard to pull it off.

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.

No, if you were going to take the battery off, you would first need to remove the case. However, as cases run, this is one is fairly easy to open. Just get your fingers into a corner and work the phone out. Its designed in such a way as to not allow the phone to fall out on its own too.

It's very easy to put on. The phone sits snug in the case and the back snaps on with two clamp clips. Define repeated? A few times a day or once a day or once a week? It seems strong. However I'd like to remind you that unless you have an oem apple charger, most likely you'll have to take it off just to plug your phone in to charge. Bad design flaw

wow -it's hard. just broke a fingernail. Put in the charger to help with leverage, then insert a fingernail at the midpoint of the side, and gently wiggle and pry case away from phone. good luck ! I think I'll go back to my soft case.

Yes, I have not had to remove the case for any reason. Although it does shift a little. When plugging it in it needs to be pushed in tight each time.

It is relatively easy to remove, although not repeatedly. The "band" broke after I repeatedly (around a dozen times) removed the cover. I did so because the audio and charging cords I have were too large to insert. I am currently using it with only the black, flexible portion of the cover.

Hi,first you remove the back of your phone and store it. As it is not used with this.This adds protection and I will guess and say another 50% battery life.My Quality of phone hasn't change. Its a double thick battery, so it adds weight but I can still put it in my pocket although it adds 1/4 in. to thickness. I wear slightly loose pants ,so its not at all difficult to slide in or out of my front pockets. Its an adjustment but better then recharging twice a day...has a soft rubber feel,smooth soft like hummmm .......,just a nice feel.

I put mine on to charge it but don't leave it on for daily use. Have a yellow Speck case for daily use. Not sure if there is a case to put on over the phone and charger.

I had no problems getting the phone out of the case. It should not be the most simple thing in the world. I just pry the corner where the camera is away and the push the phone out through that camera hole and then just pry it the rest of the way out with my finger. IMO...it's probably best that it doesn't just slip right out of the 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.

No, I have not had a problem with the battery or case...I have had it for about 3 months and I am not easy on a phone..worth every penny

No it is not. The battery is internal. If you're comfortable disassembling the case you'll be able to access the battery. But it is not user changeable in the general sense.

Hey nathan. Removing the case is simple . It takes little time but a little cumbersome. You remove the clip on backing plate and then the rubber case. Again straight forward but a little cumbersome.

You will have to remove the case in order to replace the battery. The case is made from soft plastic so it slips on and off pretty easy.
