Case or No Case? White 4S

KylePowers said:
I ordered a BSE body protection (no front) last night. I'm gonna try to go as near naked as possible, but I may spring for a white bumper, just to keep the lens from getting scratched when the phone is laying on a table.

Yea I wanted to with the BSE (back/sides) only but my concern was also the camera lens. I had a bumper on my iPhone 4 since I got it in Feb and just took it off. Too much thickness and I don't like the feel of the phone with it on. The phone feels so amazing with no case. But I'm going to cover my 4S up for a while.
 
Anyone use a case from casemate? They have one that is a hard case, but it has rubber bumpers inside to help prevent scratches and cushion the phone more in case of a drop.

I used to use a barely there case for my 3GS from Case-Mate. I really liked their products to be honest. Unfortunately, cases for the iPhone 4 (from any company) make it look too blocky, so I haven't tried any of their specific iPhone 4 cases.

Indeed! My iPhone 4 went naked and nothing is scratched on it expect the camera lens. 1000% F'd up to be exact. Picture quality is terrible now! I will be getting a case for my 4s.

I really don't want this happening to my 4S, either.
I'm going to get one of these, except with a red band.

I have had my iPhone 4 since the verizon launch without a case. No major scratches here. I am definitely considering getting a skin or case now, to protect the camera.

You can always replace the back for $29 which includes a scratch free camera lens.

Most annoying, uncomfortable case I have ever dealt with.

Why is that? When I had the switcheasy colors case for my 3gs I loved the soft touch silicone and the extras that they gave me...

Weren't people having a lot of problems with getting scratches on their camera lenses just from setting it on tables and whatnot? I'll put on a bumper and deal with some minor scratches on the antenna to keep that from happening.

The Graft is pretty sexy. What's with the metal looking cornerpiece thingy?

EDIT: Nevermind, it's the lever that attaches it. That's expensive as hell but awesome. I think I want it now. Can't tell how bulky it is though compared to my old clear case that I had from Apple.

Ordered SGP skin guard set series. Thought the CF weave would match well with the white iPhone.

The set also comes with a front clear skin. Its either this or rocking it nekked.

Personally I think the brown leather would look great on the black.
 
I've ordered a white iPhone 4S cause I've waited YONKS for the white iPhone and wanted the new one. I dont want to cover it up with an ugly case so I'm sticking with a bumper. Didn't REALLY want to pay the £26 for Apples own bumper so bought a cheapo one of eBay, £2.15, ordered it yesterday and it arrived 9am today!! Its perfect!! BF has it on his iPhone 4, he's keeping it warm till my 4S arrives on friday :D

White iPhone + orange bumper looks SEEEEEEXYYYYY!!!
 
Mophie Juice Pack Plus + screen protector. I like the extra battery as I can get a whole day of heavy usage without having to Plug in m phone.
 
I like mine naked for the most part. I use Apple's iPhone 4 docks in various places, so it would be a pain to take the phone out of a case everytime I wanted to dock it. So I use GeckoStrips (from egrips.com) on the iPhone to add lots of grip to the phone to greatly reduce the chance of dropping it. I have used egrips on all my iPhones and I have never dropped them yet. Of course if you do drop it, egrips offers no protection for the most part. They also come off the iPhone 4 easily. Any residue can be removed with Goo Gone.

When the iPhone isn't in my hand I use a Marware C.E.O.™ Premiere for iPhone 1G, 3G/3GS which works fine with an iPhone 4/4S. Marware is blowing them out for $4.99 each as well.
