Fake Vapor Pro Reviews

AceMagi said:
I put the case on the phone right away; so I couldn't notice any bending in the case. Naturally it doesn't bend when its on the phone.

I've used it for about 9 hours now, and I didn't really notice any deterioration of the cell signal. There may have been some, but that may have been the area I was in and not the case. Longer usage will identify the signal problem's origin. Haven't used the GPS yet sorry. I will update when I have a more significant answer.

It fits perfectly around the 4s. The phone doesn't wobble or move around in the case at all. Looks really nice. =)

If you have other questions you can keep asking =)

Noone answered my question so may i ask you.you think the earphone Slot
Would Fit L shaped Earphones like (dr.dre tours)?
 
I ordered a e13ctron from Jacky last night, and while chatting with him he now prefers to not sell a single unit, prefers bulk.

I was also chatting with Ada (their website is screwed up at the moment) and their new "2011 Vapor Pro" is three colors. There is a small corner piece that is kind of transparent. My question is..... are these new 3 color combo Vapor Pros the ones people are using here or are the older Vapor Pros being used?

This is for a Verizon iPhone 4S.

Thanks

From looking at Ada's listings I don't think they have to be 3 different colors... For example, the one I ordered the other day is Silver/Clear/Silver which basically means Silver frame with the Clear plastic, which is one of the options pictured.

As for Jacky Lin not wanting to sell individual pieces, then he shouldn't have them listed. I ordered one from Ada, and one from Jacky at about the same time, and only the one from Ada has shipped... I tried chatting with him yesterday, but go no response.

Silver/Clear/Silver is considered 3 colors with respect to what I meant. It's just that two of them are the same. I was looking at the BLACK/WHITE(clear)/BLUE.

I believe Jacky took them off his website, bulk only. I was chatting with him last night and he said as much. I mentioned to him that they were on the site previously.

Can you send me the link to the Vapor Pro you ordered from Ada? I want to make sure I'm ordering the right thing.

Thanks

I wonder if that means Jacky is not going to send mine and will let it auto-cancel... No biggie if he does, I really only order it for comparison purposes and was probably going to sell one of them.

The link for the one I ordered from Ada is below, but it looks like that listing is no longer available, so I don't know if it's any different to what is currently being listed.

That ain't even right. I ordered mine the same day, shipped the 27th and mine is still in Hong Kong. It says accepted Jan 4 and then next scan with movement in HK was Jan 6. Bleh. I'm in Indiana but **** man I should only be a couple days behind u.
 
Hey has anyone seen this site?

http://www.digglove.com/

They do take paypal, I took one for the team and placed a order today. Shipping is $2.99 and there was no faster shipping options. I emailed him first to see if he was alive, lol. I just rather deal with paypal.

Vapor Pros are under "iPhone 4G Accessories" click "protective cases", on the first and second pages, but then its 4g again. All the e13ctrons for the 4s are under 4s bumpers.

I will post pics when i get it. Went with a green and black s4 :D:apple:
 
Here's a reason not to buy fake stuff: A LOT of it comes from sweatshops. And if their not made by little kids their still made by underpayed workers that live and work in crap conditions. a lot of real stuff come from these places too, but fake stuff its almost a guarantee. How else do you think it comes so cheap? honestly... Not hating, I used to buy fake stuff too. Hell, I purchased a fake otterbox not too long ago. But at the end of the day you get what you pay for (it was a garbage case and I ended up ordering a real one.) I don't think I ever want to purchase any fake things anymore. And yes while comparing things like rolex to and louis vuitton to iphone cases may seem completely ridiculous, the principle really is the same. If you can't afford the real thing then work harder. If you want it then buy the real one. Half the pleasure in expensive luxuries is knowing how hard you worked for it. Nothing against those of you that have bought fake cases, jus sayin.

I doubt in this case that kids are operating the machinery to cut the aluminum. As for under-payed workers... That doesn't just apply to fake stuff. Apple products are made by what we would consider under-payed workers that work in crap conditions, hence the string of suicides last year when the iPad 2 came out. This would apply to just about ANY product made in China (and possibly other countries). If you felt that strongly about it, you would buy only American, which means you would not own a single Apple product.

If you are so comcerned about where your stuff is made, why did you buy an iPhone?

I have a similar attitude towards the fake vapor. It goes against everything steve jobs believes in - design, using creativity to make your own product, etc. To me, it's hypocritical to want an original iphone instead of a fake knock off from some china company, and then put on a fake, duplicated, case design that was stolen from the real designers. But that is just my 2 cents.

You are wasting your breath, I dont think folks on this thread care about what you are saying. Im not saying that i disagree, or that you are incorrect, just that when you get a similar looking/working product for 1/6th the price, PRICE wins in straight sets. :D
 
Anyone know where to get the best all black faux vapor case for my 4S? I am hearing bad things about Simon and some bad fit/finish... I want this case but not if it fits like ****...

I'm not saying that I disagree or that you are incorrect either, but an opinion is an opinion. Nice that people are happy with their cases though.

I have an original Vapor 4 (in satin nickel) and 2 knockoff Vapor Pros. Im happy with all of them. I did send back 1 bad quality fake vapor pro and another one that was the wrong color (nothing wrong with quality as far as I could see). And I know friends/relatives who have knockoff vapor pros and they really cant tell the difference, and are pretty happy with their knockoffs. They definitely wouldnt have bought them for 100$ or 150$ though......to each his own.

Its been my experience that the majority cant tell the difference and have spent 200$ buying their iPhones on contract, they definitely dont want to spend more than 30 bucks on a case. Its only us hardcore fans (I got my phone off-contract) that will even think about spending so much on a case, especially when the protection it provides is not worth the tissue I used this morning :p
