Grrr.....

Blue and silver came today, not very happy. The quality compared to the red/silver i received from the same seller is sub par. See pictures below. The blue/silver i received has the short plastic insert.....

The silver is not as nice as the on the red case as the pics show, its a matt finish where the red/silver is a nice glossy finish.


I will be emailing the supplier to see what happens as i was promised that the blue/silver is the same as the red/silver...

i know you said the finish is not as good, but how's the fitment? does it fit perfectly like your red one?

Just put it on now, yep perfect fit. No movement whatsoever.

I do wonder if they check what they are sending before shipping it? or do they literally order it to be sent from a warehouse?

One thing i would like is to know exactly what i am getting before it is sent to me.
 
well...I decided to put the wrap around...I'm not sure if I'm happy with this color. I might go with a different color :( It is the lightest color that I have right now.

What do you guys think? does this color wrap blend in with the silver and white?

Got my all white and silver/black vapor pro from Simon. The paint on the white one does not look good. I did not test fit it either. The silver/black is not right. I ordered black on the left side and silver on the right side and I got the opposite. SWEET!
 
2 observations/ comments (meant at humor).

1. The word fitment is new to me. I'm assuming that this is a non- us term. I never heard that term until this thread.

2. The representative from china who has just joined the forum/thread..... I wonder if she is an underage sweatshop laborer?

Mybe white sides would look nice or mybe a different color like a bright color.
 
thanks for the opinion...

I have dark blue, dark orange, etc...and I do have 1 white side. I might try one color every month then...it's only $2 a set.

Man some got shipped after mine and have already received them. This sucks.....mine was shipped on the 22nd and every time I check it's still in china. Wish I would have read here sooner an known to order from Jackie, Cindy or Simon.

lol I think my GF said fitment was a weird word to her but I have always used it especially in terms of my car and seen on car forums... strange. We're both from the US though.

OT: if anyone is selling their extra Vapor Pros at cost, I would be interested. Only ones that do not have "fitment" issues =) but rather it's an extra. Prefer red/silver or maybe blue/silver or silver. Thanks!

which shipping provider did they use? In my experience Hong Kong Post Air is much faster then China Post Air

the white lucky labs and silver combo looks nice as it provide some nice contrast and goes well with the translucent clear piece. stick with it.
 
thanks for the input. I'll change it to the white lucky labs next month :) The reason why I wanted to add some color is because the silver case w/ the white iphone doesn't change the look much at all so the color make it different, but not too much. Without the case, the wrap just stands out too much and I didn't want that. With the case, it is cover mostly silver to keep the original silver siding, but the wrap peaks out a little...and not overwhelm the silver part :)

Also, I'm using a clear protective film for the front and back.

I got the silver from XunJinDa Electronics Technology Co.

Yes, it's the vapor pro with the longer plastic insert. He posted in his listing as the longer insert. I like this seller because he ship it Hong Kong Air Mail which seems much faster than China Air Mail.

There are many other sellers out there that you might want to look into as well. I feel safe in ordering from Aliexpress because your money does not transfer to the seller until you confirm that everything is okay first. The money goes into an escrow.

Now, I have a white one coming from Simon. I prefer the white color only if it has no issue. Otherwise, I'll stick with this silver case.

Great pics.

Did you order from XJD?

and is this the vapor pro with the longer plastic insert or the shorter insert???

I have a black iPhone 4, I like the Vapor Pro. what are your favorite color combos and what seller should I buy from? THANKS
 
Did any of you get a oker brand thing. Its a little orange looking fish like shaped thing and in the bag it comes with a sim card pin and a bottom port cover. Idk what this fish thing is for.
 
Personally, I like the Spectra color line for the black phone. However, I wouldn't get all white for a black iphone...the contrast with black and white are too far apart. Check through the whole thread as you can see some pictures and you decide what you like best.

As for seller, check the whole thread again and look for recommendation. There are just a handful of sellers that you can pick from...I think there are some pros and cons with every sellers.

I'm thinking about silver/silver. How do you think that would look, and have you seen any pictures of it?
