Is there a trick to getting the phone into the case? Put the bumper on the phone first? Or try to cram the phone into the bumper-lined case?

I put the bumper on first and then muscled the plastic on second. It wasn't easy, but the flip side is that stays on well.

the bumper is not easily added, by itself; it is very snug. and, the hard case fits very snugly around the bumper...it will require some trial and error. I completely put the bumper first, then closely watched the sides so that it fit within the case.

Yes! Put the bumper and case on one side. Then put the bumper on the other side and slide the case over the bumper to cover the entire body. After a few tries it's really easy.

You have to put on the smart cover first, and then put on the back case. Because the case also protects part of the cover.

Just open the case...I personally hate that case. After 3 weeks it went in the trash. Extremely uncomfortable while texting and it you drop your phone it falls right out of the case. I got a spigen slim armor and couldn't be happier.

No, the phone fits great in the case but if you have a bumper the case most likely will not close properly.

I had no problems getting the phone out of the case. It should not be the most simple thing in the world. I just pry the corner where the camera is away and the push the phone out through that camera hole and then just pry it the rest of the way out with my finger. IMO...it's probably best that it doesn't just slip right out of the case.

Insert the right side of the phone into the side of the shell (make sure you have the top of the shell at the top of the phone. Then snap the left side of the phone into the shell. Trying to slide the phone down into the shell from the top does not work well. To remove phone from shell, reverse the installation by popping out one side first.

I had the same problem. I ended up using a credit card to pry it out of the case so I didn't scratch my phone. I hope that helps.

Hi. I'm just another customer, but I have the case. The way it's made, you couldn't keep the bumper on by itself. The soft bumper goes on, then the outer ring, which is hard plastic, goes over it and secures it. It looks really good, but you do still have to be a bit careful because you can knock it off more easily than a full case.

There are two layers to the case- a hard plastic layer that the phone fits in, and a softer rubber layer that goes around the back and sides. You will need to start by taking the softer rubber layer off first. It is easier for me to start at the top of the case close to the phone reciever and gently peel it away from the hard case layer. Once you get that off, the hard plastic layer is exposed. You'll need to use a coin or other dull, narrow instrument to separate the plastic case into two pieces so you then can place your phone inside.

It's not stuck. They have a very cool design feature to keep the phone secure if you drop it I think. To open the top, you have to open it from the left. So if you're holding to phone in your hand with the screen facing you, don't pull up straight on the case. Pull from the front left. Hope that helps.

You insert the phone in first, then slide on the bottom piece. Its a snug fit and should hold fairly tight.

The phone slides into the top piece, then the bottom piece slides in. It's a pretty snug fit, I've not had any problems with it coming off accidentally :)

The bumper is really flimsy part! Its a two part case. First goes the rubber part that wraps around like a normal case then u put on the bumper. There is a place where the bumper fits in and the only part close to screen will be the lip from the rubber case. Once the bumper is on the case it looks awesome and helps pressing the buttons. I think there is also reviews on youtube.

It does fit snug. Start from one side and get the whole phone covered. Then apply more pressure from one side and work it in

I agree, verify you've received the correct case. I had to place a piece of string around the silver ring to pull it down far enough and through the opening. Honestly, I complained the entire time, but it's quite a snug fit. Hope this helps! :-)
