What is better for my iPhone? Silicone or Hard?

Okay so I really want to order the Rilakkuma iPhone 4S case, but I'm not sure weather I should get the silicone type, or the detachable hard case. Thoughts?

SILICONE

Silicone maybe… But it scratches Really easy. Not as protective as you think. Hard might be the way to go!

I think the detachable hard case may be better, like this one so cute! Http://www.onecase.co.uk/korilakkum-rilakkuma-8th-anniversary-iphone4-iphone4s-3d-bear-case-brown.html

Okay so I have the iPhone 5C and I recently bought a iPhone 5 soft silicone case online but, I didn't mean to buy the 5, I meant to get the 5C case except I read the text wrong. Here's a picture of the case I bought on accident: I know iPhone 5C has a more round design but do you still think it'll fit? And for the hole where you get the charge in and stuff on the bottom will that fit with an iPhone 5 case if I have a 5C?

  • Which is better: a silicone or a plastic iPhone case? Yesterday, I got an iPhone 5s and am currently using a basic plastic case until I can order a new one tomorrow. The one I plan to get is a Rilakkuma case, but there are of course two choices: plastic or silicone. Which one seems to offer the best protection? Given I dropped my iPod Touch a lot, I know I'm going to need a good case so I don't break my new phone. So… Silicone or plastic cases?
