hey guys, im thinking to order one e13ctron casing for my white iphone but i cant make up my mind on the colors!
which color combination is the nicest for white iphone?
thanks!
I didn't have any off the issues you guys have had with shipping and what not... went extremely smoothly for me... Love the feel of the case, well more of a bumper, but worth every last penny.
LuckyLabs Black Matte + e13ctron Black Matte Aluminum [full]

I think I might be the slightest bit of a black matte fan![]()
I didn't want to do a drop test but I just accidentally dropped my phone from about waist height onto a tile floor and it landed on one of the corners of the e13ctron case. No damage to report!
This looks fantastic. Any other shots? Do you have a skin on the back (matte texture perhaps... haha)?
So let me get this straight..
This case is covering the edges only and not the back - correct?
If that's the case, what back would you suggest that has a bigger cut-out for the camera? Also, does this case fit with a power support screen-film?
Received mine yesterday & love it.
Ordered a hybrid: black back & matte grey front with black screws.
Fitted to my white iPhone 4s with a lucky labs black carbon fibre skin on the back!
Really pleased overall, love the way it feels on the phone & improves grip!
1. Correct.
2. I personally am a fan of SGP's protectors, they're always perfectly cut, easy to clean if you watch dust under them and roll out bubbles extremely easily. All while adhering to the screen flawlessly. Yes they're expensive-ish for protectors, but it's well worth the investment imo. As are PowerSupport Protectors. For reference I used the SGP Ultra Fine backs that came in their EX Package, they fit perfectly... absolutely perfectly. I'd recommend pretty much any rear protector by SGP or PowerSupport. [Only products I've ever used and will ever use].
3.Any screen protector will work with the case. No chance of interference / bubbling on the edges due to clipping since the aluminum never touches the screen. Thin plastic frames are laid on the outer edges, that's what the case touches, the frames never touch your screen, so no bubbling is possible![]()
so even with protectors on the front and back, there's still a gap between the bumper and the screen?
I'm just wondering how likely it is that dirt and dust will get into the gap..? could someone take some photos that illustrate this for those of us that haven't received cases yet?
i'd like to know this too seeing how I won't be going with the Graft Leverage and Draco IV...hey guys, does the e13ctron case work with the trunket wood inlays? the pics of it with the draco IV look so nice, but i'm opting to go for the e13ctron since there were complaints about the draco's paint coming off
Thanks for replying!
I also reasoned like you, it's worth it to pay a little extra for a really good protective screen-film. Good to hear that the case fits with a screen-film!
Oh okay, good that it doesn't bubbling the edges of the screen-film but the case does protect the sides of the glass-screen, doesn't it? Because that's the weakest point on the iPhone screen so it's kinda important to encase that
Regarding the back, you are just using a protective film on the back then? Is this what you recommend? Or do you know any good hard/rubber/w.e back-case?
=)
A tiny gap, yes. Which in of itself isn't a bad thing. Means any protector works. The plastic frames line the case, so no dust or anything can get in that way.so even with protectors on the front and back, there's still a gap between the bumper and the screen?

Yes and you can check out our review in detail
Yeah, the back is lipped out just enough so it lays on the case instead of the rear glass. It's a lay on the table design for broth the front and back.. that's the best way I can think to describe it :\
I use just a protective back, it's the same material as the front screen protector.. though you have other options like iCarbons and SGP Leather backs, as well as PowerSupport rear protectors, just to name a few... there are plenty out there.
I personally use this whole set... well the front and back protectors, not the sides, that's where my Lucky Labs film came in![]()

I got my case today, and it looks really nice. It took me about 10 minutes to install it along with the Trunket wood case for the back.
However, I got some issue with the signal. Prior to the case, my 4s got 4 bars of signal in side my house. But now with the case on (all aluminum), the signal decreases to only 1 bar constantly. Is that normal? If no, should I exchange it or request a refund?
