I just got the black 4S from Verizon on Friday through pre-order and I was going to get the SGP Neo Hybrid EX Series in Soul Black but they are sold out of that. I was wondering if anyone ordered the CDMA version of the iphone 4 and if you did, does it fit perfectly with the mute button and stuff?Planning on buying it off Amazon.

And if that doesn't work out I'm planning on going with the Griffin Reveal Frame with power support front and back films. Does anyone know if the Reveal Frame will scratch the aluminum antenna sides? Don't want that scratched up at all.

I got the Griffin Reveal and the ring that goes around the phone is rubber. No metal or hard plastic parts to scratch the antenna.

You also have to check that the Reveal you are getting is the newer one, which has an SKU of GB02356 for black. The previous SKU (GB01747) has the mute hole and volume buttons in the wrong place, since this is for the iPhone 4. I know this because I got that case originally and it didn't fit exactly on my 4S.

I don't see how plastic would scratch. I had the incase snap which was all plastic and never a scratch. I would understand if you are referring to aluminum or the like.

Got the info i wanted for reveal frame!
 
Is that confirmation that all SGP CDMA Verizon iPhone 4 Case Neo Hybrid EX Series colors will fit?

im not sure. but that is what im guessing. i just asked about their sgp hybrid ex and got this reply.

"Verizon CDMA Neo Hybrid EX cases will fit iPhone 4S, and you will be able to use all the buttons.
Please email us if you have any other question.
Thank you."

What's the difference between this and the official Apple bumper?

The SGP bumper has a rubber piece on the inside and then a hard plastic piece that goes over it. A lot better reviews over the Apple also.

But doesn't the EX referenced have issues with cracking at the bottom. The EX II is due out in a few weeks for the 4S and is 1-1/2 times stronger to address some of these earlier complaints.

I've heard it does have issues when dropped or heavily used. Im mainly using mine for minimal protection. The EX II is also supposed to be a bit thicker than the first one.
 
Just bought the revised griffin reveal frame at Walmart and it's perfect.

Perfect if you don't use front and back screen protectors :mad:

It bubbles up the sides and looks like I'll be returning tomorrow

what brand screen protector did you have?
 
Has anyone heard for sure other color options will be available? Love the look, definitely would want more color options.

I asked about that and this is what I got from their support team.

"Thank you for contacting SGPstore.com Customer Service Department.
Hi, my name is Sue from SGPstore.com.

I apologize but we do not take any preorders.

love this griffin reveal frame, that I'm doing away with just the front protector until I get my sgp products in the mail :D

I heard some people say that higher quality screen protectors might not bubble around the edges with the Reveal?not 100% sure though haha
