I personally like the bumpers for the minimal look, accenting color, and of course, it's made and sanctioned by Apple, so you know they hold it to their high standards.

Which combination would you choose and on which color iPhone?

I really wish they had more pictures, especially seeing the bumpers on the black iPhone, but you kinda get the idea here.

Anyone want to play around in Photoshop to make the color combinations?

Are you planning to get more than one to alternate on certain days or moods?

White actually looks silver... But would a white bumper look and get dirty?

Do you think any non-black bumper would look good on a black iPhone?

Inquiring minds want to know. Well, at least I do. I want to get your thoughts so I can make a better decision with more insight.

I've never been a fan of cases of any kind. I'm impressed with the bumper, but not enough to buy. Naked Black 32gb iPhone 4 for me :)
 
If I get a bumper, it will be a black one on a black iPhone 4. Not sure I'll go for one, though.

(it's actually not made by Apple. It's made by some factory in China for Apple. Probably the same factory that makes $4 chairs for Wal-Mart. High standards, indeed).
 
I think I'll do the white-on-white setup. If the white starts to get dirty, I'll switch to black.
 
After a few weeks off admiring its beauty and showing it off to everyone in all its glory, I'll probably pick up a green bumper for the black phone.
 
White iPhone with bestskinsever skin ftw. Omg rhymes :eek:

Side note - my girlfriend really really disliked the new design of the iPhone and was convinced shed just get a 3GS until she saw the white iPhone with a pink bumper case, to which her eyes lit up and she let out a "oooh...."
 
White Phone + Transparent (non-Apple) Case

I've only had the black 3GS but this time around I think I'll get the white one and cover it with a see-thru (jelly or hard shell) case. I really like the effect of see-thru color on white. Kinda like this:

I'm going to get the Case-Mate Barely There in Purple whenever it's released.

But until then, if the bumper is the only thing on sale, I'll go with a green one. :rolleyes:

Oh, and it'll be a Black iPhone 4.
 
Those bumpers are hideous and seriously, $29 for a ring of rubber?

I'd rather spend $29 to protect my phone then crack it. If you can't afford $29 then I suggest you buy a cheap alternative. If, on the other hand, you don't like cases in general, then why did you post in the thread?
