Is the material of this phone case gel-like?

No. I think of gel-like as meaning it's flexible/bendable and this case is not.

It is flexible. The case is not so flexible that it might "gap" along the long sides of the screen as previous gel covers that I used have done. The rim or edge that surrounds the phone screen is glossy black. The rest of the case is a matte finish and very pleasant to the touch. It is not slick or "sticky" feeling.

Feels more like Stretched Rubber. It is not squishy, if that is what you are asking.

its not really gel like it's just slightly flexible rubbery plastic - it's the only description that seems to fit

It is a bit flexible. Not rubber-like and not like a jelly-case. Its almost like a hard plastic, but yet it is a tiny bit flexible. (If that makes sense!?!) Hope this helps!

The material is a hard matte rubber. You can see the logo glow through! You cannot go wrong with this case.

The corners, top and back (back is softer) feels like hard rubber. It was nicer then I expected. I get compliments on this case regularly. I even dropped the phone and it just bounced off the corner and landed with no damage to the phone at all.

The material it's plastic. The front of the case is softer than the back. The back is smooth to the touch but it definitely gives you more of a grip than without the case. If you are prone to dropping your phone, do NOT get this case! Of not, it is a nice case to have on this phone.

It has the look and feel of hard rubber. It does not feel sticky. Dropped phone several times and no damage.

It is kind of rubbery. However I did not like the cases. They are pretty but don't fit well on the phone. The holes and buttons are slightly off so they don't match the phone. You can use the cases with the phone but it's kind of odd.

It's like a rubber but still a little hard.. It's not like those gel ones that are more flimsy.. I hope this helps..

No. Its not metal or plastic. I think it must be some rubber or silicone compound. It's flexible but provides excellent protection. The case is still on my phone right now. I love it!!

It is a flexible plastic/rubber but it is not gel like. Seems durable, of decent quality, and fits snug. Kind of a textured finish on back and shiny on front. Only thing I didn't like is that you can feel the ribs where the injection molds came together in manufacturing.

It is jelly feeling. And yes it looks exactly like the picture does. It's a good cover if you like the jelly feeling. I prefer a harder case

No. It's a hard case, even though gel makes you think rubber-ish. It is one piece, not like the rubber/hard case like the otter box. I've had it a week now and I realize I really do like it as well as my otter box I had with my iPhone 4.

I would guess it is. I don't know for sure what material it is, but it has the feel of formica. I love mine!

No, it is made of the same soft leather material as the entire case. You won't be disappointed in this case, it is very nice :-)

No it isn't... I was kinda disappointed at first when I received it. Mainly beci was expecting for the case to be rubber and have raised buttons like my last case. But it has grown on me... I get many compliments for it and it has saved the life of my phone and its screen more than once!

I would say that it feels rubbery. Even when it is not soft rubber (as some transparent or color cases) it is not definitively hard plastic. Having said that, I am happy with the appearance and protection offered for my SIII.

No it is a gel TPU, kind of a hybrid. It's sturdier than a gel case but not as firm as plastic. It's not a flimsy case at all.
