A:AnswerNo it is not, but the plastic helps. If you drop it, it could help stop damage. But i wouldn't throw it down. I would recommend that you look for a hard cast with a rubber guard around it..
A:AnswerYes you can! If the back of your phone is black, the case is clear,resulting in the cherry blossoms popping out. It looks very nice and I was very surprised at how nice this case has been so far :)
