Anyone have any experience with this? I ordered it yesterday along with a bumper and dock. Saturday I also ordered 3 other bumpers lol there site is addicting.

Currently I have a white sgp leather skin and a black bumper on my phone I thought the price looked right for that may as well try.

Also I know technically you are not supposed to remove the back cover. But if I do it carefully and if I ever have any issues swap back to the original will apple be able to tell I removed it at one point?

Thanks guys

Wow this looks cool.

If it's the same quality as the original back, I'm going to get it!

The price is $19 and plus the shipping fee which is about $8, it would be a little expensive...:(

wish i could give you guys an update.. but still has not arrived it left hong kong the 22nd so you would think it would be here by now. the other order i had with sw-box came last tuesday the 28th. and i only placed that a day or two before this order. oh well

anyway i removed the back cover of the phone just for practice and it was really simple i was kind of shocked.

got mine. the quality overall i would say is 9 out of 10. edges seem tight. the flash had a problem where the pictures were overblown. I emailed CS and they explained it was because I didn't remove a plastic cover inside the back cover. After I removed it, it worked perfectly. I'm pretty happy overall with it.

I'm so sorry, I didn't see this, PM me if you ahve more questions. It isn't OEM, but it is almost near perfect. There is a little (1mm) space for about 0.5cm near the mute problem, but I bet that's a manufacturing issue. WHich i feel could happen or not happen to you. happy with my product tho
