Here is the clear Diamond case:

Yeah I dunno if I like the bumpy texture. Probably would prefer the Duet....
 
Where did you see it, I didn't notice from the videos that it made the phone look bigger, the pattern looked rather subtle actually. Guess I will know soon.

The one above is a bit much, it looks a little too bubbly, someone needs to make a clear one with no patterns.

I only saw it in a number of youtube vids i found last night. I agree it seems more subtle then the other ones i have seen but i'd still like it with no design too.

I'm not the type of guy to rock a purple case but that back of the solo fx on in this thread looks really dark and the apple logo comes right through nicely. Nice enough i may rock a purple case :)

Some type of dark black transparent tone would be best i think, true clear would have watermarks, so it would require sometype of coating. inside the solo now had a coating but on a clear case it appears more gray then black.

I'm going to hunt on eBay for something as clear as possible.
 
My case didn't come today, hopefully tomorrow. Guess I assume everyone ships the fastest method like I do when I sell something. ****ing blows.

when I ship, I try to ship USPS first class, which in the continental US is usually 2-3 days delivery. Best combination of cost and speed for lightweight items like the cases I sell.

However, if someone ships a package UPS it can take a week, despite being an "expedited" service. I finally decided to cut my losses, lower my shipping rates, and just ship USPS.
 
I always ship things USPS priority, it costs as much as UPS and it much faster. When UPS says 7 days then you can bet it's going to be 7 days.

to me it looks something like this, the pattern is subtle but I still thinks it makes the black phone look gray.

there is also a handwoven ultra clear, looks to be the only case of that nature that is truely clear.
 
I put on my red Solo FX last night...

It took a while to massage the thing into place so everything lined up correctly...the holes for the camera and silence switch are still a tiny bit off, but it's good enough for now...

But I must say, the screen protector they include is HORRIBLE! It looked good at first because of the mirror effect, but it's so hard to get rid of the grease and fingerprints! And it makes the screen hard to see when you're outdoors.

Are the Switcheasy protectors good quality? Or should I just buy the PS crystals/anti-glares?

The handwoven clear is a really nice color, actually. A nice frosted white, with the clear overlay so it's an interesting effect.

I have the same case in stock in my store (I am the authorized reseller for More in the USA).

The ultraclear version is only available for the iPod touch right now.
 
The only slight issue I've started to notice with my Solo FX ebay knock-off is that the small strip of rubber at the bottom (in the front, between the button and the plug) is beginning to stretch a little bit. I think it's from sliding the phone in/out of my pocket. It's not too bad... but it's just not tight against the phone like it used to be. The rest of the case is holding up well, though.

Is anyone else experiencing this? What about the real iSkin version?
 
anyone got the solo FX in green on a black iphone that they could post a pic up of?


I bought my wife the green fx on a black phone so i can post a pic later.

I think it looks pretty good, its not nearly as bright as you think but not to dark either.
 
i just switched my black phone out for a white phone.. the knockoffs look way different now.. not sure if i like them more or less.. i will follow this post up with some pictures..

I've heard of it happening with both. Seems like it could just be the nature of the beast.

It is a thin piece but i think you you realize that its not a very strong part and your aware of that then you should not have a problem.
 
One question guys

Is this case for girls?because I heard alot of comments from people on Youtube that the iSkin Solo FX is a Case mostly for girls, NOT so much for guys,I was thinking of getting the blue one but I just wanted to make sure u know soo?:confused:

Um, what? Are you 12? Th iSkin Solo FX is a case for... people who want to buy and use it.
 
After the whole stain on skin issue that I had with this case, I'm having second thoughts whether to keep this case or not .. it's sitting on my desk collecting dusk, feels like I wasted my money on this one. I wish BSE could have warned me about their skin, or iSkin about their case: both don't mix together at all FYI.

iPhoneFreak17,
Are you one of those people who also believes that the white iPhone is for girls only? If so, I think you have some issues.
 
It must only be the colored FX that stain, my black solo never stained a skin on my phone.
 
It doesn't seem like the green fx is staining my bse skin either... Although, I have been switching it out here and there. Maybe, the worst of it is coming from the red fx? I have fx blue and orange on the way, so I can see what happens with those too.
 
I didnt say it is for girls,thats what I heard from people,I think because colors are a lil too flashy or too girly idk purple red etc..

But don't you see how the question itself is intrinsically, well, silly?

Who cares if you are a guy who wants to sport hot pink iphone case with crystals. Its up to you. No case is is made gender specific. Don't let immaturity on youtube sway you from getting something you want, and have enough pride in yourself to not care what others think.

The Solo and Solo FX are great cases, if you want one I would highly recommend it. But then again, I am a girl... :D:p;)

This is the weak point for the knock offs. Mine was stretching that way and too much dust and stuff was getting in there and started scratching the bezel. This is not an issue with my iSkin Solo FX.

Really?? I felt that strip on the knock off was thicker then the iskin. Ingeneral with either real or fake i make every effort not to grab or pull on the bottom. If i take it off or put back on i put the bottom on 1st. I have 2 solos and both after are a month look fantastic.
 
I really wish I could do something about me having to lose my iSkin mirror screen I loved it! Is there anyone that does not use theirs? I will gladly take it off of your hands for you!
