Very sturdy case, it protects the iphone very well, the only complain is that it has actually only protected it from it itself, for instance, it has dropped several times, but for lack of tightness on the clip. The clips hold the iphone well during a normal walk, but if you run upstairs , not fast that fast, it pops out.
The plastic clear screen makes iphone screen less bright, not to much to bother, but it’s evident when you are used to have it with the case, and then had it removed, you can tell the difference.
As for the oil effect, I tried the powder solution, which didn’t worke at all.
I found a very efficient solution, you just need Windex and some kitchen towels, you can use costco’s Kirkland. You just wipe both iphone screen and cover inner screen, let it dry for 3-5 minutes. I have not had a oil/sticky screen effect for several weeks. Give it a try.
I’d buy it again, since I have not seen any case this robust in the market so far.

“The Help” by Kathryn Stockett introduces the world to three characters we won’t soon forget: Aiblileen, the maid/nanny who raises white children with more love than most of their parents ever give them; Minny, the housekeeper with famous cooking skills, and one hell of a temper; and Eugenia ‘Skeeter’ Phelan, the writer in her early 20s who finds herself surrounded by racial injustices during the civil rights movement, appaled by the way her white friends treat their help, even though she herself grew up with an African-American maid she loved dearly.
Kathryn Stockett acurately captures the dialect and speech patterns of the South, taking the reader into high society livingrooms to witness the action first hand. Don’t be misled into thinking this is a book that solely focuses on civil rights in Jackson, Mississippi in the 1960s. It does do an excellent job of shining a light on the social injustices of the time, but it is the three strong women, with their backbones and big hearts, that really steal the show.
Aibileen loves all 17 little white children she’s raised as much as her own son, and she’s determined to make sure Mae Mobley, her current charge, grows up assured of her own self-worth and kindness, and that she turns out to be a much better person than Mrs. Leefolt, the child’s indifferent mother. Minny takes a job for the Celia Foote, the town’s social outcast, after losing her job due to the ‘terrible awful’ thing she does to Miss Hilly, the town leader and head bitch troublemaker. (You will HAVE to read the novel to see what she does, but it will surprise the heck out of you!) When Hilly campaigns to have everyone in Jackson put in a maid’s toilet–so Hilly won’t have to soil her behind by sitting on the same pot the maid used when she visits her friends–a line is crossed. Skeeter decides to write a tell-all book, and after a bit of coaxing, Aibileen and Minny agree to help.

Single handedly the best $270 I have ever spent. Great for music the screen is better than my hdtv For video. Apps are amazing controls are great.
I only have two complaints:
1. No flash player so many websites won’t work
2. No mic if you don’t like the earbuds you can’t use voicecontrol and some apps like shazam need a mike to work
But otherwise amazing worth every penny

Why is it that when someone writes a book about a topic not covered by a lot of other people, others criticize it for all the things it wasn’t? For goodness sake, this was one author’s one book. Sure, you don’t have to like it, but must you treat it like THE DEFINITIVE book on the subject? I doubt that the author would say it was.
As for the dialect business. I’ve been annoyed all my life with the treatment of dialect. In this case, I could sort of follow the author’s thinking. The college-educated people spoke mostly correct English, the others did not. That didn’t mean they didn’t all speak with thick southern accents. I’m glad the author didn’t sink to phonetic spelling, like having the black character say “dif’rent” and the white character say “different” when we all pronounce the word the same way. That really annoys me.
I generally like character-driven stories, and in this case, I thought the characters were a bit underdeveloped, even stereotypical. So I just went along with the story line and I gained some insight into the mentality of some of the moneyed women who employed maids. I waited for the inevitable ugly scene of men in white hoods, and was relieved when it never happened. I really didn’t want it to come to that. Just once, I wanted to see people crossing color lines to get away with it. So I was happy enough with the ending. That’s the beauty of fiction; you can make things turn out favorable in the end and as I read for insight and relaxation, I was glad for how things turned out.
I applaud the writer for this effort.

The ONLY thing I would change about my Kindle is that I would give it the option to have a “back light” so you can read it without an external light source in low light areas. Other than that, VERY easy to use. Works great.
