I lost interest about 40 pages ago. The Vapor case is a real product or a laughable scam?

Inquiring minds just got to know :)
 
What I want to know is, where are the cheap Chinese knock-offs? Clearly there's a market for a case like this - sure Element isn't the only company (in)capable of making them! :confused:

Good question. Yeah I would think that someone would produce a variation of this case... there is pretty much everything else you can possibly think of available.
 
Holy Crap - I JUST Received my case today - and I even have pictures (NOT Renders) to prove it!

It's heavier than I expected, it does not affect signal at all, and has not scratched my iPhone during assembly. If you look closely along the side, you can see the hi-tech polymer films.

I'm sorry about the pictures, I don't know how to upload things, I didn't have a DSLR sitting 1 foot away, and the IP4 was in the case - so I used my original iPhone to snap the photos.

I knew that logo was going to look hideous!

Looks a little big. Boiling it should fix it up real nice.
 
More pics or it didn't happen. Plus I don't see any screws so it must be a fake.
Where's your shipping notification anyway? I'd dint see that color combo on their wepage either.
:p
 
Page 79 will always hold a place in my heart.

Despite any problems with it (such as its cost and non-existence) I like seeing anything different. iPhone cases have so long been the same couple styles of cases with tiny variations between brands.
 
So Big TDI Guy - did you request no logo and yours came with one anyway? I thought the logo was going to be smaller too. Can you still fit your phone in your pocket? I'm also trying to figure out how this case is going to protect the phone from drops. How did you get silver/silver? I didn't see that option available? ;) Also - why didn't you take pics on a black glass table? Is this actually a render and you are trying to throw us off?
 
So all of the cases should be shipped out by this evening and happy customers will be receiving them later this week :)
 
I think it's pretty obvious that big tdi guy is another element case employee. You can see the machine shop behind the picture (which I'm sure is a render anyways.)

In order for there to be knock offs, there need to be the real product. since non exists, there can be no knock offs. make sense?

Ok, just so I follow your line of thinking here. You are saying an employee of Element Case, created a render of the case, then photoshopped it into a picture of himself standing in a machine shop? Instead of a picture in an office or outside or any other place in the world that does not cause suspicion?
