Apple Bumper or Incase Snap case?

Well i took off my snap case and put on a full skin.. Im debating if i should use the bumper as well.. I love the snap but im just worried that crap will build up between the case and phone and scratch it, and i dont want to worry about taking it off every week to clean it ...
Anyone else ditch the snap ?

I ditched it too. Could not get it to fit properly while having a back glass protecctor and wraps on the antenna band. I won't take these off for a case. Read far to many of iPhones getting screwed up in those areas with cases.

Has anyone tried out the snap case that fits both Verizon and AT&T?

I have the new version of the smoke snap case and have tried it on both a VZW and ATT iphone. It fits perfectly and snaps in place like it's supposed to on both phones. This is the smoke version with the satin rubbery finish. I haven't tried the new version of the hard clear plastic one.
 
I have used bumpers on my 4 ever since I've had it. A couple times a week I take it out to clean the rear with a microfiber cloth same with the case. Not s scratch what so ever. I also hate any damage done to my phone that even goes for hairline scratches Which I still have none of. :D
 
So your saying you just use the bumper now ?

I actually picked up the new version of the bumper and it fits great and forgot how well it looked but now im back where i started should i use the snap or the bumper lol...
 
i use both.

the bumper on weekdays cause i put it on my sound dock to listen to music at work. the bumper covers the 30pin port so i can just insert it into the dock w/o thinking of scratching the steel band around the port.

the snap case i use on the weekends when i need the exposed bottom to work w/ accessories in the car.
 
I ordered the Incase Clear Snap case from the case program originally, I also had the full body Zagg IS. I hated it. The back never looked good. I also like to take my case off and clean out the inside every once in a while.

When I did this with the Zagg IS on the back it stuck to the case and I had to replace it. I wasn't impressed with the case itself, my wife got the bumper and I liked hers way better than mine.

Now I have the SGP Neo Hybrid EX in Gunmetal and I love it. It's just like the bumper, provides great edge protection, fits nice a tight and it looks at close to a naked iPhone as possible. I highly recommend it.
 
Wanted to bring this back to life, how well are the bumpers and the snap inane holding up ? My black bumper has a ton of hair line scratches along the glossy side.
Anyone just going naked now.
 
i have both, got the incase free through the free case program and its OK. i prefer the bumper but my blue one is looking ugly and my black one's rubber is loose and tore on the back. i didn't do anything for it to tear so i just used the incase for the first time in 4-5 months. ive only used it maybe a total of 1 week. not that crazy about it but we'll see this time around.
 
i know no one is looking at this thread anymore, but that's weird that your snap case wouldn't fit with the back zagg on. I have a white VZW iphone 4 with only a zagg on the back and it still fits in the snap case awesome, even better than without it for some reason, go figure...
