Equally far as fit and experience is concerned, the Ballistic Shell Gel does add a chip of heft to your Lumia 900. Compared to the Otterbox serial, the Ballistic instance falls somewhere betwixt the Driver and Defender. With the Ballistic Vanquish Gel, the Lumia looses a good bit of its pocketability (unless you're talking jacket pocket or maybe a big back pocket) but you lot've got a decent corporeality of protection. The simply downside with structure is that the rubber tin exist a bit of a dust and lint magnet.

The Ballistic Shell Gel instance is a well made, durable, pare case that does offering a decent amount of protection to your Lumia 900. The outer trounce is solid and the prophylactic interior layer had a bit of bounce to it. The trade off is that while the Ballistic Shell Gel does offer protection from drops, scrapes and dings it adds a chip of bulk to the Windows Phone.
