Element Vapor Case

[lgreenberg]

Are you noticing that dust, pet hair, etc gets trapped between the case and the phone? Thanks.

No not particularly.

The Vapor has four foam like inserts, one at each corner which keep the case off the metal antenna of the iPhone.

Oh great.

Now i am only still doughting between Black/Black and Zilver/Zilver.
It's a shame that there are no real picture's out there.

I also don't think anyone has had the case long enough for anything to get into the case. Maybe in a month or so, people will report whether or not dust/hair/crap will be getting in between the case.

There are! LOL!

Some good picture's of the Silver/Silver version?

Please share.

A bunch of these junky cases are listed on Ebay already. Damn they must be great!

What a joke element case has turned out to be

I recommend boiling in 3 inches of water after bringing the water to a rolling boil. About 2:30 to ensure a quick dry with no water marks you can briefly submerge the bumper in a separate container of bleach.

" And a nice chianti"

Sorry man, couldn't help myself. Your post read like a recipe.

...I also do have a set of the Lucky Labs (side pieces) on my device and they may serve as bumper between the case the the device, which may help with holding reception...

I think this is a good idea.

 

[Steveo47]

That's because almost nobody if anybody has one yet! I think that is 99.9% of the problem with the case!

I know! i dont wanna drop 80 bones on something i dont totally like, i suppose i could get it, and if i dont like it send it back for a refund, and i would just be out shipping costs.

I think this is a good idea.

I also just ordered some lucky labs stuff. I've already gotten 2 emails from them for ordering a 10 dollar set of sticklers. Take note Element.

 

[Steveo47]

i got my email from element saying i can order, not sure if im going to. My main concern is that gap between the case and the phone, how much dust does it accumlate, will said dust scratch my phone ect. Anyone?

I didn't see any Vapor 4 Element cases on Ebay. What are they listed as?

 

[White/Rhino]

No not particularly.

Thanks Larry. You have the only version 2 we have seen so right now your word is it.

I saw one. Don't if that qualifies as a "bunch", but here it is.

Yeah that appears to be the only one.

And if you notice in the questions at the bottom someone has asked if it's the version 2 case, which it's clearly not.

But the seller answered it was.

There are 5 items for sale on Ebay.com

Somebody wants $140,- for it (but it now)

Guess I used the wrong search words.

Larry, I don't think that guy knows what he's talking about. Obviously. LOL!

The inside of the Vapor case is lined with a very high tech shock absorbing material that reduces the G-forces of an impact. It also creates
a non-conductive barrier to help maintain the iPhone's antenna signal strength.

Using the words "Vapor iphone" I found four for sale on eBay. All Black.

did you read this thread https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/988639/ almost everybody is complaining they don't have it. pretty hard to return something until you have it. plus if it's that hard to get what do you think the return process will be like!

I have version 1 and after 3 days of use I took off the case just to see if their was a bunch of crap in the case and to my surprise it was very minimal to none. As far as dust scratching the case I don't see how this could happen since the phone is very secure in the case ie no movement.

Well these things must be shipping now if there taking new orders dont you think?

Good, thats the answer i was looking for. I have a SPG matte incredible shield wrapped around the outside anyways, but i still wanted to know. Ill likely place my order, and if i dont like it just return it. The element case site says nothing about a 30 day returnor anything, so it seem slike i can take my time.

Don't think you'd have any problem selling it if you didn't want it either.

 

[Steveo47]

true, even if i just send it back to element, ill only be out 5-6 dollars for shipping. So why doesnt everyone who isnt sure just do the same? I mean why not?
