Can the cable be detached from the phone?

No, it's hardwired. Also the handset wire goes directly to the wall socket and can be detached from the cradle which is good since the cradle is extremely lightweight.

No, you don't have to take it out of the case to talk. The back of the phone is glued to half of the case. I have never removed it since I started using it about 3 months ago.Hope this helps!

Yes, it also uses an independent exterior button which means you don't need to open it to detach the cable, though you do need the combo.

There isn't a control button built into the cable. You can just use the controls on the phone.

The cable is not removable. With a connector adapter I guess you could use yours or you can plug into the headphone jack

No, it cannot be easily detached. It uses a proprietary locking system that is hidden from view and would be very difficult to remove.

No it does not, the case should be removed unless the original cable is used.

You can access the port just fine. So the answer is no. You dont have to remove the case. Honestly the case rules. It's the best case I've ever had by far.

the cable is detachable. I've owned this for a few months now and it's holding up and performing nicely.

No, port to charge the phone can easily be accessed without removing the cover.

Why would you need to do this? You can transfer files onto the phone using a sync cable without removing the case, so I don't see why you would need to remove the case. I think it would probably be okay, but I can't say how long it will last if you keep pulling it apart.

The cable is not detachable. One of the company reps emailed me with instructions on how to replace it if needed. Detachable would be better though.

No, the earbuds and controller are built around the cable, making it impossible to separate either.

I cannot connect the cable while the case is on my phone. it's the only downside to the case.

Yes it can be removed easily. The ends of the cables will be exposed when unit is removed, because they plug into the back of unit. The molded plugs are water tight and shouldn't be a problem. You can always wrap with a plastic bag and rubber bands if you want extra security from the elements.

Yes, the curley cord detaches from both the base of the phone and also from the handset. They are modern modular plugs.
