Wow those are amazing buds. I see they're from the UK so how did you go about acquiring these? I never order anything outside the US. :p

I ordered them after seeing that pic. Ordered from their website with a US credit card (Chase). Got it in a few days. They are first class, sound amazing. I get tons on compliments on the way they look. Definitely worth it.

The case however, have to send it back, reception loss is ridiculous.
 
The original one at Amazon is priced at $89.99 yeah? I saw one at $35, was like hmmm.
 
The ones on Amazons are 'fake' according to the manufacturer.. a simple email to them cleared that up. There was a guy selling locally at about $80 USD, but nah, the manufacturer directed me to the only distributor here in Singapore and I got it from them. 99 SGD vs 129 SGD I rather pay the diff.

Btw theres no urethane all around... just at certain points... the corners and i think theres a bit in the middle. I went for black. the finish is great you can tell its anodized, and theres no paint imperfection like some mentioned (probably fake)

There you have it. My guess is that those who purchased fake, and I know there are many out there now, have a lot of issues. The real deal will have very little impact on reception and the finish is drool worthy.

hi so in marina square the price is SGD 129 ?

anyway for those who owns draco/cleave and element case Vapor

i know that theese casses reduce receptions and GPS and wifi
but comparing between them, vapor 4 vs draco, which one reduce the signal more ?

now im using vapor 4

i dont like the vapor Pro as the edges are to sharp for me,

so im comparing vapor 4 vs this draco IV instead,
if the signal is better in draco, i might buy one, thank you.

Actually, the Cleave isnt as smooth as Id hope, the edges arent that comfortable to hold on to and so on :/

As to reception, I had -90 inside of my apartment using my cleave while my gf had -80 using a naked phone.

Has anyone tried the cleave/draco + metalic backplate? Would probably make a really nice combination, but Im worries it wont fit :(

I thought I posted that I have the Mas design backplate on this thread.. hmm anyways I do.
 
Is igearusa.com the only legit reseller at the moment? I've been searching all over and cannot find anymore.
