It's survived at least one fall onto concrete without scraping the case in a major way. The material is very smooth and is sometimes hard to get a grip on if my hands are dry (minor gripe). It has also picked up a slight blue tinge around the edges from when I put it in the back pocket of my jeans. None of these are dealbreakers for me. It looks and feels very sleek and gives my old phone a more dignified look than my old yellowed clear case.
