I was in line to order my americano over at starbucks, and the person infront of me was using this case. It looked pretty decent from where I was standing.

What do you mean? They only come in black, pink, clear and clear frost. The two cases are on different colored phones, white and the other is on black.

More pictures of this case pretty please, preferably on a white iPhone? :)

I do not have this case, but I have a co-worker who has it. Clear and frost are two separate case colors. The clear case is completely transparent. The frost case is frosty, or a greyish-white color. With that said, my co-worker has a more expensive case that is made of a thicker material-polycarbonate which is most common. Now, the only frost colored cases that yellow up are made of plastic base material. Hope this helps.

I have the frost version and it hasn't yellow'd at all--for reference, I carry my phone in my pocket and usually wear jeans. It also looks really nice on my white iPhone.

Guys look at the first page in this thread and look at both pics of this case on the white phone and the one that Chris Welch put up. They seem to look different the cases, i know one is on a white phone and one is on a black but can the black phone make the case look greyish like that ? I really like it and want to make sure i order the right color.

because the case is slightly translucent, whatever the color of the phone will shine through. both pictures are of the same case it just looks different because of the colors of the phone.

Is anyone using this case with the white iphone? This review is claiming that the white iphone 4 doesnt fit well with the frost snap case due to the extra thickness over the black version. I ordered this case with for the iphone 4s and i wonder if it will fit.

there are a few other members on this website that have complained about yellowing. what i suggest is if you really want it you buy it and see for yourselF. If it yellows in two weeks then you can still return it.

probably better to buy from the apple store or incase website so you can return it instead of that china site "that guy" suggested. good luck!

Are you guys able to use screen protectors? I bought an Incase Snap from Best Buy and had to return it because it wouldn't fit over the screen protector. It was so tight that I was certain I'd scratch the chrome and rip off my screen protector trying to shove it in there.

i posted pics of the case the first day i got it over here: https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/1245763/

Now this is how my incase white frost snap case looks like on my 4s after exactly one week of use. As you can see, no difference and no yellowing at all so far:
