Any opinions on Radius v2?

ndbarras said:
I ordered a black and red one and I got to say I like it a lot! I have been using for a few days and I don't think you can find anything more minimal and unique looking! It is scary having it on bare iPhone cause I think it may scratch the phone over time so I took it off and ordered a naked wrap from ********** then it's going back on over the wrap. I am trying to liquidate a few cases then I think I am going to make the leap and purchase the titanium version ($249) and my case search will be finally over!

Signal loss not bad enough to be a deal breaker huh?

Made the leap!! Also I can't say enough about the customer service of mod-3!! I inquired about any promos or sales and they responded with their appreciation of me being a fan and sent me a code for 10% off!! My case search is done!!!

Don't buy a Radius V2

I bought a case radius V2, and did not come for the dates you had promised despite this I began to use it but after a few days he went one screw that adjusts one corner and contact the web site www.bitemyapple.com this was his response:

"You want to exchange it

284 S Ocean Ave
Patchogue, NY 11772

And try my tip with the crazy glue on your replacement.

Sorry for the delayed review but USPS took about a week to deliver a 2-day priority mail shipment and I decided to use it for a week to give a better review. I ended getting the "All Slate" instead of the "All Polished".

The packaging was very minimalistic, it included 1 additional screw and a hex tool. The tool is very awkward to use cause of how thin it is. I installed the case in about 5 minutes without any issue, it took a little longer because I have a clear coat protector on my phone. It was easy enough, just follow the instructions (leave the two bottom and unscrew the top).

The case feels very premium, no cheap thin aluminum feeling here. The black color also seems like it will last for awhile. The edges are sharp but I never had a problem with it catching on my clothes. At first, the feel was very awkward because of the elevated "X" on the back of the phone but after a day or so you get used to it. I think the case will provide a decent level of protection, I dropped it about 4 feet... it bounced off my kitchen counter and onto my hardwood floor. There was no damage to the phone.

My biggest issue with the case is that it seems to affect the signal just a little bit. Normally thats not an issue but I have very poor signal at work and I can see the phone switching to 3G frequently.

Overall the case is great, probably one of the best looking cases I've ever had. But due to the signal issues, I have put it up for sale on Ebay. Here are some pictures also.

That case looks utterly ridiculous...

Did that make you feel better? Why don't you enlighten us with some mature thoughts of why you think the case looks "utterly ridiculous" instead of just throwing some random negative remark? Troll

I think that the case does not look very attractive. I also think that the case fails to offer some of the protection that other cases provide. From what I have read on this thread, the case is difficult to install, and lastly, I think the case is unappealing aesthetically because of how abnormal it is. I think that a common reaction to that case would be laughter, rather than admiration.

Is that better?

That is a much more constructive opinion. Certainly this case is made to appeal to someone looking for minimal protection and doesn't want to cover up their iPhone with a piece of rubber or polycarbonate that destroys the aesthetics of the naked iPhone. I believe this company has achieved exactly what they set out to do and now that I have owned two different versions of this case I can say that I have had no issues whatsoever installing or uninstalling on my phone even with a skin installed. This is my opinion and it is based on owning and actually using this case.

Looks good in Ti...
 
I had this on my galaxy s4, was pretty cool actually. Lots of comments on how nice it really did look.

I think its like a Borg add on for your phone haha.
 
I bought the red and aluminum one for my space grey 64 gb 6 plus. And had zero problems with the install. Its basically just for looks. And boy does it look awesome. It will protect against drops everywhere except the front screen as it doesnt raise up enough. Or atleast mine doesnt.but i found i take mine on and off easily by just taking the camera piece off only. And slide it on and off. I do have a ?.. Can i buy extra pieces to change my red ends to the polished ones? Does anyone know if that's possible??
 
It looks great don't get me wrong. However, after extensive testing I discovered the case cut down on AT&T reception by two bars in every building I walked into. When I would take the case off, two bars of reception would reappear. I contacted the company and they never responded to me. So not only do they have a product that diminishes reception, they also have poor customer service.
 
radius all gold

Have had this case for a month now, just took it off to check if there were any scratches, absolutely no scratches, etc on the back. Not sure about the signal loss as I live in DFW and signal is pretty good but i do notice atleast a 1-2 bar loss at times when I am in a deeper room in my home. Doesnt bother me much, but just an FYI.

Overall very happy with design, it is as minimalist as a case can be and provides solid back and corner protection. For me with small hands, it hands zero width to the phone and some extra grip at the back so the phone doesnt slip out of hands.
