Does this case protect the sides of the phone?

Yes it does. The black cover on the left is made of a rubber material which wraps around and bumpers the screen. Thin and very good at protecting it from falls. I've dropped my phone several times and it hasnt cracked or broken. Very good buy.

Yes: it wraps around and overlaps slightly onto the phone's face all the way around the edge. There are special bumps for the side buttons to make them easy to use, plus two holes each at the top and bottom for connections such as earphones and charging.

No, it basically covers the sides only. Where the phone starts to curve is where the shell ends.

No, just the bumpers (front edges of the phone) actually protects the phone of it falls face flat on the floor. You can buy screen protecters though, but keep in mind this case is for the IPhone 3GS

it is pretty much the sides and the back. the screen is just covered by a screen protector that you apply yourself.. i haven't gotten a single scratch on it since i've dropped it though so i guess it works pretty good! :)

yes, it does cover the sides. I have 3 different kind. I like all 3.... I get a lot of compliments

No it protects the back. It has a little lip around the front. If the phone lands flat the front might not crack.

The case covers the sides and the back. It comes with a screen protector for the front.

No, the sides of the case are just flush with the front so no real protection from impact.

No, just the back and sides. It does extend up over the sides enough so that when you lay the phone face down the glass does not touch the surface.

It does not, but I have a clear plastic protector I installed. The case however does cover the sides very well. Between the protector and case, I find the protection is quite adequate.

No, it doesn't cover the front but it does cover up each of the sides and fits great. I purchased some screen protectors to protect the front to keep it looking sleek.

Yes I think it does, I like mine, its not to big and if you drop the phone it protects it, it would not be waterproof.

Yes it will protect your phone's back & sides but not the front part if your phone directly hits an object.

Yes, the cover comes up over the sides of the phone and has a small "frame" on all sides. The face of the phone is left bare, of course, but there are cut outs for the camera and charging openings.

It protects it greatly. The sides are very spongy so when phone falls ( if you happen to let fall purposely), it will be well protected. I have never dropped my phone but there is always a first time for everything right?

no. but it does not protect the top and bottom of phone and the face, so there is an opportunity for that part of phone to scratch since it is not covered

Hi! There is a plastic/ rubber "case" the in which the phone fits perfectly. It is form fitted around the sides and back, but does not cover the front. I've dropped my phone a couple of times since using the cover and all is well. I love it!
