Behold the i+Case!

[SR45]

Has anyone received these yet and checked for signal loss?

Amazon has a few postings only about signal lose

I can do better:

Also, my Draco case is arriving hopefully tomorrow or Friday. At that point, I will perform some field tests with the i+Case on and off.

Field Test results​

Carrier: T-Mobile​

Naked and not holding: -84 (4 bars)
Naked and holding: No Service (0 bars)
Naked and not holding again: -84 (4 bars)

With i+Case on and not holding: -96 (3 bars)
With i+Case on and holding: No Service (0 bars)
With i+Case on and not holding again: shoots right back up to -93 (3 bars) within seconds

With Draco IV and not holding: -96 (3 bars)
With Draco IV and holding: immediately dropped to -130 but then after 5 seconds, it went back up to -99 (2 bars)! The new 4S antenna band functionality (being able to switch antenna) works with the Draco IV but not with the i+Case or when it's naked?
With Draco IV and not holding again: -94 (3 bars)

So glad I returned my case. Talk about drama!

I've also messaged Jason quite a few times, and you can tell he's a jack@$$. Very unpleasant to communicate with. Also, it's a royal dick move to sell these cases on Amazon BEFORE fulfilling their orders with their backers. Even now, most backers still have not received their cases, and now that Amazon is sold out on the i+Case, they are being sold in China. WTF??

I don't understand why people are still manufacturing cases and bumpers in metal. No ifs ands or buts... It causes signal degradation on the iPhone. Don't buy these things (I've bought several and finally learned my lesson).

My Draco IV case only slightly degrades my signal. It's not a big enough impact for me.

That's becuase most people don't see beyond anything other than=looks cool-I want-I get then I will look cool.

Right. That's why you care about your haircut, your clothes, and god forbid you check yourself out in the mirror before you leave the house!

Such an absurd post that reeks of self-righteousness and double-standards. There's nothing wrong with appreciating great design. In fact, I wanted to major in product design in college.

The absurd part is you can't understand the post. If a cool haircut made you walk with a limp, would you get it? Do you wear clothes that don't feel good but you think look good? I don't. I don't use metal cases that impede reception, no matter how good it looks.

Right - that's why people wear suits and tailored clothing. They look great, but are not as comfortable as pajamas. Why don't we all walk around in construction outfits since they are the most "practical?" And we should all get bowl cut haircuts since they are also the most "practical." Or we should all shave our heads. You don't seem to understand that appearance has great utility. You must be some huge backwards rationalizing mega-nerd who resent good looking people.

No, I pity shallow minded people who put fashion over function and who defend it.

I rest my case. LOL @ calling people who don't share the same values as you as "shallow minded." According to your line of reasoning, I can find someone spends less money on haircuts and clothes than you and accordingly, YOU would be shallow minded as well.

That red one is amazing. The silver? A bit too terminator.

How well do these actually do compared to a softer rubber bumper? I would imagine it would transmit the shock of an impact to the glass much easier.
