Does the case make the screen less sensitive? And does the case make the galaxy's air gestures not work as well?

The case has not affected the screen sensitivity in any way. I have yet to use the air gesture feature but I notice the screen detects my finger just before swiping to unlock. This case fits really well and becomes a natural part of the phone. I have been complimented on the look.

The screen is no less sensitive with the case, and I have no trouble with air gestures as well.

The screen and gestures work fine for me with the case on and I have a zagg hd screen protector too.

I don't use the air gestures because I consider them absurd and unnecessary. That said, I haven't noticed a significant drop in screen sensitivity. Of course there's a bit, but the screen works perfectly fine for me.

the case doesn't make the screen less sensitive if I touch it, I haven't been able to make the air gestures work with or without the case, I touch it to get results. the case is bulky but I like the protection it provides and I dropped mine in water and it protected it so I feel it does what it needs to do and was thrilled to have it. Hope this helps. Lois

No and no. That said, I removed it and out a Zagg shield on instead....personal preference.

I don't think the screen protector will be the cause. Mine does the same but doesn't bother me

IR blaster does not function with this case. I noticed that restarting my phone while in the case restored proper functionality of HTC Gestures. However, volume button + landscape mode to go directly to camera is still a hit or miss. I say "still" because it never worked 100% reliable even without the case.

No I think they've done a great job designing it to make sure the screen doesn't touch when I put it down on a flat surface. Also it's one of the few cases that protects the volume keys and on/off button. They are protected but still respond easily to the touch. Also the camera lens is well protected on the other side too. I'd definitely buy it again. Good luck!

It has a built in screen protector. Not sure how that would fit. Also, it might reduce your screen touch sensitivity.

I don't use air browse, but I have had no problems with my Palm swipe, are any other hands free setting

Yes.. I have noticed the screen is not as responsive around the edges of the phone. I have friends with other style Otterboxs and they say they don't seem to have that issue. It could be my phone. I haven't used it with out a case and this is the only case I bought when I purchased the iphone5. I really don't have any comparisons to give.

That was my initial worry before I purchased it. Rest assured it does NOT make it harder to push the buttons. Not even a tiny insignificant amount. I was very happy with my case.

No it doesent. But it has a slight bevel once the case is on so it prevents the screen from touching any surface you lay it face down on. Also I've had it for months now and started seeing a little wear on the grey parts which weren't as dark as the picture showed them to be. So now it looks a little worn and a reddish tint to it (im guessing from rubbing or putting it in my pockets). Overall it's not that bad of a buy for the price and its still comfortable to grasp. I hope I answered your question

I don't feel like it does. I have smaa hands and still find it comfortable. The phone is definitely not as slim with the case on, but the point of using this case is to protect it from damage.

Yes. But in my case it isn't even and in the center of my screen there is an small area where the two touch and it looks like a drip. It has no negative effect on the touch screen performance but the image quality is slightly affected. The small area in the center of my screen where there is no air gap is brighter.

Hi. Yes but the lower part were the home button is the border touches the screen just a little. It doesn't effect the touch screen but you have to push it back a little. I use my tab more vertical, so it interferes with my note taking and hi-lighting the whole word. That's when I have to push it a little back. Other than that. The cut outs for the device our good.

Yes, it's a little harder with the case but you can still do it. You sort of adjust for the edge of the case and then swipe a little firmer and it works. Great case for the money!

I did not feel that it did. The screen protector makes the SUPER AMOLED screen very pixilated and defies the HD-type picture that IS the SG3. Plus, I wanted a case that had a "kick- stand", sooo I bought a different case. This case is GREAT, and I still have it, but using a different one for the mean time.

Not all! It rests against your knuckles without notice. Only slightly awkward or annoying if you bend down to get something it can graze your face nothing bad though. My two things I find to be severly annoying is trying to take a picture which I do often the case always wants to fall right in front of the camera so I have to awkwardly hold it out of the way and when I put the case in my pocket upside down (S pen slot up) and then go to pull it out, the corner of the case snags and and bends rather easily and damages the the fabric of the case. Other then those two things it's a solid case.

I've had no issues with my hand affecting things on the screen. It's only where the pen touches the screen that things are affected. I haven't used the touch feature to much but my experience so far has been that the screen is only receptive to touch gestures from your finger tips. The side of your daring hand doesn't result the screen being moved.

Not at all. The rubber over the buttons actually makes them a little easier to feel. Much better than some other cases I've tried with this phone!
