You think that'll look good with a matte black spectra wrap, carbon fiber back, and anti-glare ps shield on the front?

That's your call, dude. Sounds cool. The SGP Glas.t is the best screen protector I've ever used. I have a black matte spectra wrap on mine and you can barely see it on the top and bottom.

Any chance you could measure in mm how deep the headphone out is recessed?
 
Okay, time to put the pissing match to an end :)

Just got mine in the mail today. I must say, I really like it. It's literally the same design, just polycarbonate. It's still held together by two screws in the same location as the aluminum version. The plastic is not solid black, it's a dark crystal, which I really dig. The volume and power buttons ARE BUILT IN. The silent/ringer switch IS NOT. The headphone port is the same depth as the aluminum. And, being plastic, obviously, there is no signal hit at all.

There is no lay on the table design. I have an SGP Glas.t on my 4s and it fits great. I use a Portenzo skin on the back. No issues.

I'll keep it on for a week or so and see if I still dig it. But I have to say, so far, this is exactly what I was hoping Draco Design would create and they did!

Quickly took a bunch of pictures. Enjoy! http://bit.ly/HdueUI


Not really a pissing match, I was merely stating some facts. I know "droidrules" is actually someone who trolls quite a bit and has been banned before, you can probably figure out by his name. Anyways nice pictures. I wish they came in solid colors though. Looks nice regardless. Would've been even cooler if they had implemented some metal buttons.

How do the screwholes feel? You think there will be a problem if you take the case off too often?

I'll guestimate -- 3-4mm.

I love monsters.

Everything feels cool. It looks like they molded a female end into the plastic that the screw, screws into. Guessing that'll prevent stripping.

Already thinking about getting another color. I need therapy.

Monsters like the headphones lol? I'm going to consider the clear for my white 4s if they don't come out with anymore colors.
 
How wide would you guesstimate? I'm trying to see if the plug on my IEM would fit or not.

4 mm but it is a tear drop shape to 5mm. What kind of IEM? I use Etymotic's and it fits fine. So do Apple's and Skullcandy.

Monsters, trolls. :)

Crystal would look cool on white. I'm thinking of getting Red for my black 4s.

I love my white iphone but I can't help but feel that there are a lot more slick looking case combos for the black iphone lol

I have to agree on that. I like case snap case, but it alway crack in corner with use for a while. That's why I stick with Vapor Pro now, However still wait for lining for Xtrucase for try again!!

Me too. I've been rocking my xtrucase but the tiny bit of movement is kinda pissing me off. I'm just praying that the lining will fix it. If not I may have to ask for an exchange.

Put in time out is not being banned... but I'm sure it will come down the road. The name is a joke..... but I wouldn't expect you to get it. I have fun on the forum and pushing buttons is sometimes part of my fun. You call it trolling I call it stress relief.


Anywho... OP thanks for the pics. It appeared in the pics my buddy here provided that the mute switch was integrated. I guess pics can be deceiving. Guess it's time to pull the trigger on this. How is the grippiness of the case? Looks like it would be pretty slick.

There is a mute switch, it's just not "attached" to the case like the other volume and lock buttons. How are you supposed to tell if the buttons are separate or not when it's all put together lol? You were trying to tell me there were no buttons at all before... nice try though ;)

If it's just like the aluminum version, there actually is lay on the table design. It's about 1 mm.

Since this is shiny instead of matte, how easily do scratches show up?

Thanks for the photos by the way!
 
LoL, you really have no life do you?

I took what OP said about the mute switch as there was none. Again, you proved your cyber penis is bigger than mine. I'm getting a kick out of this though. You really seem like the Kind of person that needs to have the last word so I'll leave it up to you. I'll continue to comment on the case and you can continue to comment to me. Have a good one.

Thanks for the info. I really am liking this. In the pics, you have a little plastic piece in the bag with the wrench and the screw, is this not for the silent/ringer?

Slick, but the contours help. No prob for me.

Barely LOT. I'd still say none. It's in my hands now. Scratches -- too early to tell. But it's plastic, so I'm sure with use it'll happen. I'm pretty easy on my gadgets, so it'll never be an issue for me.

The bag contained 4 screws and a wrench it for tightening 2 of those 4 screws that hold the case together.

What is this piece? It looks like the piece that goes over the silent/vibrate switch or the power button?

Silent/vibrate. Just like the aluminum Draco. Works well.

Oh, OK. Thanks. I think I would like this in a solid black, but I might still have to get one. I love the aluminum version, but hated the reception issues.

FYI, igearusa.com has this case as well now and is offering a 15% off with code EASTER15

Wish they had it last week. Could have saved a few bucks. Oh, we'll.

Just ordered a red one for $27.72 w/ free shipping.
 
The ruby red crystal case is the best looking one IMO.....especially on a BLACK iPhone. Sexy!

Oh buddy I'm just joking around with you why are you so serious? You said yourself you like to push buttons and use forums for stress relieving... if you can dish it out then you can sure take it. Don't lose too much sleep over it. And why you keep trying to bring up your cyber penis whatever that is? You must be seriously lacking in real life :$ I'll stop joking around with you now though, don't want to hurt your feelings.

P.S. Op was saying that the button isn't attached to the case, not that there is none. Go check his pictures again, he even took one of the vibrate switch itself. God I wish I could be as smart as you!

Yup the red one is slick as hell! I wish they had more pics with white iphone... prolly don't look as good as when paired with the black one lol.
