Fake Vapor Pro Reviews

Lindenhurst said:
Thats probably a good idea. We don't need any more threads on knockoffs, when there are existing threads anyway.
Sellers go through any lengths to push their products these days. Stick to the rules and you'll do just fine.

Well, it's not against the rules. There are tons of review threads out there when there are already existing threads about the product. If everyone posts their reviews in these other threads, they will get lost in them.

Take this thread for example... look at all the questions Mr. Scott and Pezz get when they already gave all the answers in their reviews. Let's face it, most people won't bother searching through a thread like this with over 50 pages.

People only showed dislike towards mine because of the nature of the product. Nobody is complaining about my Lucky Labs review. Just saying.

So for example, this case here:
http://www.aliexpress.com/fm-store/...uminium-Bumper-Case-for-iphone-4-4G-Free.html

I'd choose black (since it's my second choice), and in the notes portion of the order, specify that I want an orange and black case?

Yes. Most sellers are very good about keeping in contact with you after you've placed your order. Like I said, I also like to go to the order details page after I've placed the order and repeat verbatum the instructions for color choice I left when placing the order. The seller will then usually respond saying that he's got it an understands, assuring me that the correct one will be sent.

Well, I did exactly as you said (and ordered from Jacky Lin). We'll see how things go. Watch, after all this, my 4S will still have signal issues (GPS in particular) like my 4 did when I had a legit Vapor Pro.
 
Man it's takes a while for the products to arrive from China, granted with the free shipping option.

I ordered on the 15th Nov, still waiting for it to show up. Tracking says that it has been at Hong Kong sort facility since the 22nd...

Same but I ordered on the 12th.
 
Anyone have the red/red one? I emailed jackie lin about it and he said the red/red one is not good quality. So idk which color I want now, white one is bad quality, and the red one he says is bad quality, my two colors i want :(

I asked him about the red/silver one and silver/silver one for my white 4s.

Proceed at your own risk...

You can apply a little bit of clear nail polish. Since these screws are tiny, I mean a LITTLE BIT. The nail polish trick is something that some of us snowboarders use on our binding screws. Those are big though so...

I am hoping there is another way.

Has no one else experienced this issue?
 
My 2 vapor pros from yoyobase finally showed up the day before thanksgiving. Even the knockoff vapor pro is an improvement to cell/gps signal compared to a legit vapor4. Also got my deff cleave today..gunmetal grey.. i like the deff cleave even more than the vapor pro..cleave murders the gps signal but doesnt bother me because i dont really use my gps. :cool:
 
Just got my blackops knockoff, and I'm very surprised. The quality and fit is excellent. I just had to pull off one of the spacers that was on the case. I have the zagg fullbody on my phone so that could be why I don't need the spacer. I love the case. I haven't been able to test the signal loss or not yet. I'll test it when I go out tomorrow and let you know. The quality is very impressive, I wouldn't hesitate to buy the case if anyone was is thinking about it.

I have a couple of orders for items... it is infuriating.... just today I got a confirmation that a registered mail parcel was received on the 26th by China Post.... everything is delayed - my first item I paid for shipping - it got here (California) in 10 days.... we'll see how long this takes...
 
Wow, i just went up to check those Vapor comps. Its seems expensive compared to the Vapor pros. Would be nice if some one could review these. :)

I've also received Jackie lin, vapour pro 4. These cases are nice and tight compared to the Simon's cases i've bought i would prefer getting them from Jackie lin over Simon's.

I ordered from Jacky Lin as well. The tracking number did not change until it hit the States, and that took about 10 days. I received my 3 cases in about 12 or 13 days. All 3 were very nice.

Jackie Lin's page shows an orange Vapor Pro... but the option to order one is not there.

When you actually order, you send him a message telling him what you want, and he will respond before shipping anything out. He responded to me the same day I sent messages I sent him.

Vapor Comps showing up now on aliexpress...
Click to expand...

Is it me or do they look really like cheap plastic cases? Maybe it's a bad photo, but those pictures look like cheap clear plastic numbers to me.

I like my Vapor Pro, but any time I need to use the gps, I need to remove the case. Mine is an iPhone 4, and not the new 4s. Hopefully the 4s doesn't have the same gps issues mine does.
 
Those Vapor Comps look pretty horrible. Looks like cheap plastic. You can also see that most of the cases aren't flush where the plastic meets the metal.

Plus they are expensive...
 
Man, I want to get those cases from Ada Li. Can't decide on color combo :/

Silver - clear - blue or silver - orange - blue? Or blue first then silver?

I do want that silver - clear - gray though. That gray color looks sharp with the silver.

Decisions decisions. Red one looks nice too haha. Hey Pezz, how do you like that orange tab? Think it would look good on with the other colors besides the black and all silver ones?
 
there way to many pages to read through so sorry if this question was asked. How is the drop protection on these?. I am looking for a case with more protection than style but if this fake case offers as much drop protection as ballastic or otterbox ill probably get one.

this was my concern before deciding to go ahead and order one.

this is how i look at it:

this is more of a stylish case and does offer some protection but no where near as an otterbox defender. the vapor pro does seem to have enough to raise the screen and back off of a flat surface, so if dropped, it will offer some sort of protection that way. i have a wrap on the back of my phone and a screen protector on the front, and i make sure i am super careful with it. the case will offer enough protection if dropped, but not face first/back for example.

go ahead and order one, you wont be sorry!
 
Can I order any combo if I specify? For example I would like to mix white and silver. Can they do that for me or will I need to buy 2 cases?

Can anybody with iPhone 4s comment on these vapor cases, I tend to use GPS often. Also how is it with signal strength and wifi?
