i've previously posted pics of my glossy silver (clear) / black in earlier post, matched with carbon fiber skin. Just replaced the bottom piece with a matte black for slightly better grip and a Leaf Metal Skin (Wave). Check it out :

Hey wwyjoe. Just wanted to know if you still have the leaf skin on your iphone?
If so have you noticed any signal loss, or overheating while having the skin and e13ctron case on the phone at the same time?

Thanks.

"hey everyone we are working on the verizon case, we are setting up new equipment to run that case specifically. we dont want to release it in limited quantities and run into any back order issues. we understand the frustration, but we are doing as best we can. we hope to start running the verizon case next week and take it to anodizing shortly after. thank you!"

Colour Scheme

BTW, does anybody have an all black case?
I'm trying to decide on either an all black case with a glossy finish, or a matte finish.
Any pictures would help

I think I might pick up one of the ebay knockoffs for $40. I tried the Draco and loved the look above all other aluminum offerings but it cut down to much on signal for me. So dropping $40 on a case that may or may not work for me is better than dropping $85.
 
Black matte looks amazing. I think after everything, this is probably the best of what is out there when signal is taken into account... The others just are too signal reducing when you live in a moderate signal area.
 
Verizon and Chrome versions are Finally Coming~

Finally the verizon version would be available in limited quantities on 18/4..

The Chrome & Black Chrome would be following suit for the at&t, can't wait for them to be released..

BAM, done. Just ordered. I said a while back I would order the first reliable (signal-wise) aluminum case available for the CDMA iPhone. So they win.

I got black/black matte with black screws. I have a PS anti-glare HD I will add when it arrives, and now I just need a Matte back, and I am done. There is a Ghost armor at a Mall near me, so I will probably just get the back from them.

Finally done. :):):)

Congrats! My favorite case so far too. Quick--send them a note and add their new hex driver to your order. (unless you have a 1/32 or .9mm handy) The free one works fine, if you have more patience than I . . .:rolleyes:

Thanks. I have plenty of patience, and I am not planning to take the case off often. It's funny, I was happy to drop $85 on the case, but won't stomach $9 for an extra wrench, ha ha.
 
AuroraProject, thanks for the pics!

I've been debating what colors to go with when I order my case and despite all the great colors and different possible combinations I think I'll be getting the black matte. It looks great and you can still see the great lines and attitude that this case displays. I think it will look really great with a leaf skin on the back. I heard their black skins are coming out soon!

I've also been meaning to grab a good screen protector, so thanks for the name drop on yours.

Annnnnnnd I'll probably end up getting the black chrome when that comes out as well

I agree. I am really looking forward to black matte. I just had Ghost Armor Matte Back and Sides added to mine in preparation, and a nice Matte screen protector will probably kiss fingerprints goodbye forever. A black or metal rear skin would really make this thing amazing. I was thinking of eventually going to a Carbon Fiber back. I didn't like the Leaf skins in white, but a leaf wave in black would be very nice...
 
if anyone wanting to let go off any of their set of screws or plastic lining or purple/darkgrey/silver/light grey/black polish top do drop me a msg thanks alot.
 
I couldn't wait for the hybrid case to come out so I got a used aluminum case for my AT&T iphone 4.

It looks sooo awesome.

but my GPS is so off and my data transfer is definitely reduced in low signal areas.

This case is clearly making my reception worse also.


But but but.. it looks sooo sexy! I will wait for the hybrid back to come out...
 
Anyone ever drop one of these?

I have a couple e13ctron cases, and have been very happy. For me, the effect on signal has been minimal and the gps is still working quick enough for intended use.

While I have not dropped my phone yet, I was just wondering if any of you have dropped your phone and if the case helped at all?

I am also interested about dropping the phone and how protective these cases are. Anyone have any fortunate or unfortunate examples?? Still trying to decide between ordering the Verizon version next week or waiting for a hybrid.
 
All matte black looks stellar. I just wish I wasn't considering cases so close to the launch of the iP5. My wallet thanks me, but hopefully the design for the iP5 doesn't change so all of these cases are compatible. i know fat chance. Well I'll wait for now I also want to see a review of the deff cleave too. before I make a decision.

Thanks I actually just got done reading them when I checked back on this thread. I seem to have good luck with aluminum cases. My iP4 stays around 66db in my area with knock off vapor on so I'm just waiting till my mind decides which one is better between the e13ctron and the draco. I like that the e13ctron is dockable without any adapter on the universal dock though.
 
anyone can help here? i wanna know if any ebay sellers selling e13ctron screws? also if anyone have spare and wish to sell me do pm me, as i've lost 2 of my screws from my casing. thanks alot for helping.
