So far, I am LOVING this bumper. I have the black one, but I think the color spices things up a bit. I see myself keeping the Bumper on for a decent amount of time.

I'd do a review, but I'm sure tons of others will be doing reviews that would exceed mine, so I won't bother. :p

Ouch. Sorry to hear about the reception issue. I don't seem to have that, but maybe I just don't notice it.

I'm thinking about getting more colors, too!
 
Green bumper loook great. Wish i could spend another 30 for green, using black currently, not bad but after seeing green ahhhh i need one
 
Hmm.

I kind of wish the edge was a darker green.

All these colors look like something out of Japan or from the "Pokemon" collection.

I'd like to see more of a seafoam green.
 
If I had to get a case it would be a bumper

Personally, I prefer just sticking my phone in an Apple Sock when im finished :)

I recommend the Apple Sock strategy to anyone who doesn't like cases
 
Hmm, not really a huge fan of that color green. I wish it was either lime, or more seafoam-y like another user mentioned. I think a neon/lime would look sick on a black iPhone. Thanks for the pics though! Helped me decide on color.
 
green and black are the best ones yet. i have a black one but i think i might just return it and get a green.
 
Perfect! Been wanting a green bumper, but wanted real pictures. Green's my fav color, but this is almost.. too green.
What's up with the no service though? lol

You don't have a reception issue but the pictures of the phone shows "No Service" Maybe you don't have a carrier plan?

LOL. No, no, no. When the previous user said something about, "if only the bumper could fix the reception issue," I thought he was talking about the issue most people had by holding it. As for the signal issue, I've always had that in my home/area. It has been like this since day one, even before I purchased my first iPhone on launch day of 2007. I've never had signal in most parts of my house. I get, like, one bar in one corner of my bedroom. I live way out in the boonies of West Virginia, Guys. :p Most people have asked me why I don't switch carriers. Two reasons: they don't have the iPhone, & I've already checked - no other cellular company would work, either, except for one local company.
 
Can you tell me about the material the bumper is made of? I want to know if its smooth plastic that won't get stuck in your pocket or its that grippy stuff that only comes out of your pocked with the rest of your pocket still attached. TIA

It's both. The sides are smooth plastic, but the part of the bumper that contacts the front and back of the phone is the flexible, grippy stuff. So, yep, the rest of your pocket comes out with the iPhone. In the picture in this thread, the grippy stuff is the dull looking part of the bumper. This 'grippy issue' is making me think my gray iFrogz Luxe Lean case might be the better solution for me.

Thank you very much. I was worried it was this material. That will probably push me to go case-less or wait until I find something better.

I thought a case did fix the issue? thats what i heard- something about the metal on ur skin affects what signal the phone thinks ur getting... I wouldn't know though, no iPhone 4 for me!
