No. It is well engineered and is similar to a Speck Candyshell case (hard and soft bits). It fits, covers what it's supposed to and doesn't what it's not. There are dollar cases and imitation bumpers floating around that demonstrate poorly designed/made products.
Well I am glad mine came in the retail packaging. I already have a black bumper and plan on exchanging my free one for a colored one once Apple has them at the retail stores again.
which is exactly why they did this...
LOL! It's a cheap piece of plastic!![]()
That's exactly what I was planning on doing. Makes sense tho, by not giving people the retail packaging they won't be able to return them.
And of course Apple won't send free bumpers in full retail packaging. They will use the most inexpensive means possible since they are giving them away for free. Color printing, cardstock, and hard plastic cost significantly more than a plastic bag and the switch will save the quite a bit of money on the giveaways.
Why don't they just offer the options of colors in the first place? With a 2-4 week wait for the black bumpers, they could just offer colored bumpers with a 4-6 week wait.
I guess they're banking on people going out and actually purchasing some colored cases once this fiasco is over.
I personally think the bumpers are of impressive quality, the plastic finish looks really nice and the metal buttons look great. mine is quite snug on my phone, the kinda fit that would only come from the original phone designers
I bet those are previously returned bumpers.

If you already have yours when did you place your order? I ordered mine on the second day and I had a friend order his one the first day and neither of ours have even shipped yet. He's in Louisiana and I'm in Texas for reference.
I know theres threads about bumper orders, but they're old and I don't wanna drag them out.
I really want my bumper!!!![]()

i ordered mine on the july 24, got confirmation that it was shipped on the 28th and i got it august 2nd.
i think it was shipped from chicago and i live in new jersey. when i ordered mine it said it would be shipping on august 28 so i was really surprised when i got the confirmation of shipment for july 28. also, mine came in retail packaging.
