Lorem</a>. I was quite impressed with the Proporta case, but this one is different &#8211; it&#8217;s a hard case with changeable front pieces.</p>
<p>Plus, it&#8217;s the only case Ive seen with an integrated lanyard in the back, to help you hold on to your iPhone.</p>
<p>Will it be enough tempt me away from the Proporta case?</p>
<p><span id="more-3818"></span><strong>The Details</strong></p>
<p>The VOi! Lorem is a hard plastic shell-style interlocking case. It comes in two pieces. The main shell has a lining to keep your phone snug. The &#8220;VOi Axent Ring&#8221; snaps on the front to keep your iPhone in place, and once it&#8217;s on, you&#8217;ll need to use a coin in the dock cutout to snap it off.</p>
<p>Cases are available in Obsidian, Phantom Mist, Fireside and Sudden Blush &#8211; which is black, white, red and pink to you and me.</p>
<p>There are three cutouts at the bottom for the dock connector, speaker and mic. There&#8217;s a large cutout on the side for the ringer switch and volume control. There&#8217;s another couple of cutouts at the top for the headphone jack and hold button. The camera lens also has a cutout, and there&#8217;s a hole on the back to help you push your iPhone out when you want to change cases.</p>
<p>And on the back, there&#8217;s a lanyard point and lanyard.</p>
<p><strong>What&#8217;s Good?</strong></p>
<p>The plastic doesn&#8217;t &#8211; in the main &#8211; feel flimsy. There are nice touches such as the internal lining, which stops any movement within the case.</p>
<p>I felt that my iPhone was nice and snug in this case. I did drop it once while using this case,  but it didn&#8217;t crack or scuff, and my iPhone was undamaged, which was nice <img src='http://www.allaboutiphone.net/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p><strong>What&#8217;s Not So Good?</strong></p>
<p>The plastic does feel a bit flimsy around the dock connector. I wouldn&#8217;t want to take the case off too often for fear of breaking it.</p>
<p>The supplied lanyard isn&#8217;t big enough for me to fit my hand into and comfortably use the phone.  I think it would be fine with a smaller hand, but I couldn&#8217;t hold the phone and use it with the lanyard around my wrist. Swapping out the lanyard for a longer one would solve this though.</p>
<p>I found the plastic around the ringer and volume controls to be too high. I had to fiddle with the ringer switch with my thumbnail, and changing volume with the phone in my pocket was very difficult &#8211; I just couldn&#8217;t feel the controls.</p>
<p><strong>Anything Else?</strong></p>
<p>The package includes a cleaning cloth. </p>
<p>VOi! encourage you to mix and match the backs and fronts of the cases, but they only sell them as complete one-colour units. So if you&#8217;ve bought an Obsidian but are feeling a bit Phantom Mist, then you&#8217;ll have to buy a whole extra case. I don&#8217;t think swapping your case colours is going to be quite as exciting as VOi! think it will be.</p>
<p><strong>Summary</strong></p>
<p>Personally, I&#8217;m sticking with the Proporta case for the moment. But the main thing going for this case for me is the lanyard &#8211; it&#8217;s unusual, and I haven&#8217;t seen it on another iPhone case. If you&#8217;re worried about dropping your iPhone and feel a lanyard will help, then this case may be for you. If you&#8217;re a bloke, you&#8217;ll need to buy a longer lanyard that you don&#8217;t have to squeeze around your wrist.</p>
