Does this item grip a lot like silicone?

These cease aren't as soft as the silicone. They are a harder material but work great! I have dropped my phone and haven't had any cracks or chips yet. They stay on the phone well. Mine never comes off unless I take it off and I have these in several colors. You have to push the buttons on the side for volume etc.. A little harder but I'm used to it now. I would definitely recommend these! Hope this helps!

No this cover is not clinggy like a silicone gel cover it has little grips onthe sides and is very handy and makes The phone non slip. I have got this cover for all my friends they love it.

Yes Rachael, it is silicone. All of it is, top, etc. It's a great product, I really like it.

The one that I have has texture to it, but it isn't real slippery, but it doesn't have a rubber type grip texture either.

No, it's shiny plastic (same with the sides). Probably doesn't have the grip you need.

yes, it has a thick grip.....I would say over 5 inches for sure. it is a very good product and I love it, though.

Yes. The whole entire thing is silicone. It's quite flexible but maintains its shape well. Though I've not used it extensively, some silicone items I have do start to lose their shape with frequent use.

It doesn't have any grippers, but the plastic material is kind of textured. I mever had any problems with slipping.

Hi GinnefurLynn! There are no differences between the two descriptions that I am aware of. I believe different companies may simply use different terms. All silicone cases have a rubber/gel like feel. My only hunch is that "gel" may insinuate a bit of transparency? That is my two cents :) If there's anything else, just let me know. I can be contacted directly via this link:

Yes. The sides have a tight diamond pattern that provides an excellent grip. Best I've ever used.

The backside is plastic w/silicone underneath it so it would slide easily, however the front is all silicone which is grippy. So, it isn't overly grippy yet not too slippery. Hard to explain, but I like it the way it is.

I don't think it is rubbery silicone, it is more like cheap plastic, very thin. I returned mine, only worked for a couple weeks- You get what you pay for, I would advise paying more and getting a quality one. I got a Belkin and love it.

I've never seen this style with rubber, but no this one has no grip. It's just cloth, but it holds in well.

Yes, it grips very well. I sometimes use tiny bits and it grips even the smallest, no issues.

I have not had any problem using my silicone holder. I do cook on a medium or low temperature setting.

It does not have any rubber to add additional grip to the sides. That said, I have not felt that it was overly slick either. It is solid plastic though so I'm sure that given the right conditions it could become slippery.

It's silicone I bought for my 6year old grand daughter she's hard on all of her electronics I would say yes

doesn't feel like rubbery silicone so soft plastic I guess - but it feels/looks good and is probably fine unless you are prone to dropping a lot. also link doesn't stick to it like silicone
