Which seller was this from? Are you saying that this replica Vapor is better than replicas Vapor you have from other sellers or just that this is an impressive fake in general
----------
I have been having problems with payment on my order. I first had to call my credit card company to have them clear Aliexpress since they kept denying it. Now my order was paid for but for some reason Aliexpress returned the money to me a few hours later. Not sure why grrrr.
I called Chase again to ask if they did it for my Visa card. They asked what kind of service this was. I told them a type of Escrow servce.
The guy goes:
"Escort? no problems mr. X"
Me: "ESCROW, ESCROW not escort. I wish I was paying for escorts"
Just put in a order for the Vapor Black Ops. Got a message from them saying it will be shipped out in about 3 days. Let you guys you when I receive it
Good point, no it didnt. Not really that bothered though.

here:

i took a risk because it was before i realised that this had the smaller plastic inserts (as per the pics), so you can imagine my surprise when it came with the longer inserts...
im actually really impressed with this, cant believe its a fake, and i cannot imagine the real thing looking much, if at all better than what i have. The other one i have i bought off ebay from someone based in the UK, it has the smaller plastic inserts, here is a pic of it:
and here again is the one i received today:
I know the plastic insert served to prevent antennagate problems for the iPhone 4, but since this problem has been eliminated in the 4S, is the plastic just superfluous at this point? Will new versions omit the plastic in favor of all aluminum construction and be more symmetric? I just ask because if there will be new all metal versions, I'd much rather wait for those...
I'm talking of both real and fake versions
I'm talking of both real and fake versions
good question and i totally agree, would be great to see an all aluminium enclosure
Are you intending to put this case on a black or white iphone? I'm thinking of ordering this case formy white iphone but not sure how it would look. Pics on the phone please.
Which delivery method did you choose?
I dont see the red/silver combo on the site - did you just request colour when ordering?
Thanks
Yea am intending to put it on my white iPhone 4S when i eventually get it...
chose free shipping, didnt want to pay an extra $20 dollars.
Yea if you scroll down a bit eventually the red and silver version shows, i asked the seller to send me some pictures of it too. Its best if you live chat with the seller when they online as they can let you know exactly what they have. I have found that some sellers have more than they advertise in the listing, or less.
looks good on the black also though, here are some pics:
What seller did you order it from?
Reason I ask is because I ordered from a seller on aliexpress, received my White Vapor Pro and the mold does not fit my phone. My phone is loose inside the case, and well if I order again I would like to know of at least someone on the forums who has received a case that well... fits.
Well, the iPhone itself is made in China too I decided to test one of these case.
Besides, I'm planning to use it for 2 years and then upgrade to iPhone 5
I already paid $100 for warranty to get a replacement if I drop it, so this case is just for cosmetic reason
I highly doubt any of these aluminum case is going to protect it from a drop. For $30, there is nothing to lose.
I think Element Case needs to lower their price to $100 for the Vapor Pro model as I wouldn't mind paying that much for it. However, $150 is just too much for something that I'm going to use for 2 years.
----------
so far, all the sellers that I have chatted online does not recommend the white due to quality issue.
I guess people should avoid the white edition until they fix the issue.
I'm guessing they are going to perfect the white edition...but give them some time.
So after reading these posts I am strongly considering trying one of theses cases. Im just tore between a couple of them, and wanted some of your opinions. I have a black iPhone 4. Which case and color do you think looks best?

Personally, I think it all comes down to your preferences...you ask 100 people, then you'll get 100 different opinion.
Black iphone...looks good in a lot of color...but it depends on how flashy you want it to be. The color ones are going to get a lot of attention. I would avoid the bright color...
Try to get a dark color that blends in the black....it looks classy.
I'm not a fan of the white case on a black phone and vice versa.
I saw the dark red/silver combo looks very good on the black. again..make sure the red is the dark and not the bright one. I recommend that you go through Vapor thread and view every pages with everyone's picture. That's what I did....and decided to go with the silver/silver on a white iphone. I wanted the white/white, but too many issues w/ that color.

that's up to you
I wouldn't go with Black Ops fake one because the plastic corner is a different color than the original. If I would go with black, then pick the Vapor Pro black version with the clear plastic corner.
the Black Ops original looks good as it has more of the orange plastic corner.

again, that's just me...

Thanks for that. Can you tell me how much bulk it adds to the phone? I dont want to change my car holder as it took a while to find a good one. Are you able to measure the width when on the phone please?
Also does it add some grip cos I find the iphone itself very slippery!
Thanks
dont have a measuring implement on hand but it doesnt add that much bulk at all, check the pics above
.im on the verge of getting an orange one from the same seller!
