I have been searching for a protective and grippy case for my HTC one x that, most importantly, does not take away from the natural slim profile of the phone. After trying a few options that were more popular on Amazon, I decided to give the BoxWave a try and I have been more than satisfied with it over the last month. The case feels very sturdy, the side grips are very effective, and it adds only minimal bulk to the phone. I love that the back is see-through so that I can still see the beautiful design there.The only slight qualms I have are: the case was very difficult to get on. The opening for the micro-USB is quite tight (maybe 2 mm off of the actual hole edge) so you will not be able to use all micro-USB chargers with the case on. Luckily, the charger that came with the phone is thin around the plug area, so that does work.I have had no issues with the plastic separating from the rubber bumper area- the manufacturing appears to be very sturdy, and I don't anticipate that happening with common sense gentle use. I would recommend this product to customers looking for light protection for their phone who want to add some grip while maintaining its low profile.
