Incipio iPhone 5 Cases

I'm still waiting for a white silicone for the dualpro to go with my white iPhone. It's been saying "ships 2-4 weeks" for the past 3 weeks:

I tried cleaning it with some light water and soap and it has not returned to normal. Now that white line is slightly darker. Again, I can't say it's the case for sure, but I don't know what else could have caused it.
maybe it's just a cheap paint job and rubbing off with contact since you say you take your phone out the case often
That's my observation as well. All the Walmarts I went to (4) have no new iPhone cases.
I had a black DualPro for my black iPhone 5 and returned it.
The case was super easy to put on the phone, with the rubber part acting as a buffer to prevent any scratching during application.
However, the rubber is way too loose at the top and bottom. I also don't like how far it reaches around the phone. The dealbreaker for me was how frickin dirty the rubber top and bottom would get every time I put it in my pocket. When I pulled it out, these two parts would be absolutely covered in dust.

I found mine for what it's worth at a Super Walmart, not sure if you have any around you but the regular Walmart didn't carry them.
I received mine from Macmall on Saturday. I was not pleased with it at all (loved it for my 4). Sorry, don't have any pictures currently.
The cutouts at the bottom were not aligned properly with the speakers, and the whole bottom lip seemed very loose/floppy. The color also did not seem quite as transparent as the NGP (smoke color) for the 4. I did still love the feel of the case.
On the plus side when I called Macmall they refunded my entire purchase including shipping, and told me to keep the case. I had assumed I would need to ship it back.
Sticking with my white/grey Candyshell for now. Maybe they will update the fit and I can get a replacement directly from Incipio later.
So I just picked up a Frequency in Black at one of my local WalMarts. This case is horrible for fit. It is way too loose. So loose in fact, that I noted that I was having to push in really hard on the sleep/wake button to make the top collapse down some in order to get a response. I would guess that the measurements that Incipio used for this case were off. Either that, or I just happened to get a bad case. I returned it right away. I won't be trying another one. This is now 2 Incipio cases I have gotten that have not fit the phone right. First one was the feather shine, which is loose and I can hear and feel the phone moving around in it slightly, and now this one. I think Incipio needs a little time to adjust their measurements and molds to make these cases fit the iPhone 5 better.
Must be a defect. My frequency fits perfect. There's no chance it will come out unless you intend to remove it. See if you can swap it for another, perhaps another store even in case the batch they received were made in the same poorly fitted mold.
Was looking at a incipio kicksnap (I like the kickstand for videos or when I fire up slingplayer) but two things bugged me. When the kickstand was open the back of the phone was exposed and I saw a video where it seemed like the kickstand wanted to close on it's own. Given it was brand new and out of the box so with some use it might get worked in to stay in that position but the back being exposed bugged me as well. I ended up ordering a Seidio Active with Kickstand which should be arriving tomorrow http://www.seidioonline.com/apple-iphone-5-active-metal-kickstand-case-black-p/csk3iph5k-bk.htm. It's a rubber case with a plastic skelton piece what snaps over top of it. The kickstand appears to be closed by magnets and has a spring on it to keep it open (or so it said in a video on youtube). My only question is will the rubber sides along the screen become loose and a lint trap... only time will tell. With my iPhone 4 I had a Scosche case with a kickstand and I really liked it (solid black), for the iPhone 5 they have one but it has a crazy design on it that I don't like. It is thicker and does add some bulk to it but I didn't mind as it was solid potection (iPhone 4 still looks like it just came out of the box).
You got a bad case. My frequency fits absolutely perfectly. Very snug. It's actually a little tough to get on because it fits so perfectly.
No. Responses I've gotten from several manufacturers is Apple's new proprietary connector requires licensing/authorization from Apple before they can make equipment that uses it. Apple is dragging their feet on authorizations, whether it's because they're trying to milk cash selling their own gear first is anyone's guess.
I was 'unofficially' told by a customer service rep that it may be a few months.
Today I got my Incipio Feather Case (Black) from Amazon, I ordered it yesterday...I would check out Amazon if you want to get one. I'm not sure if they have the other colors in-stock but they have the black one.
great find $23 case for $4

i wish the frequency was a harder silicone. i do not like how easily the sides pull off, little too flimsy for me. not sure if im going to return or not yet.
Got my NGP yesterday, love the texture compared to my SGP air and Craze case. Only problem is the sleep wake button doesn't respond well. You have to really push to get it to work. I do have a glast screen protector but doubt that has anything to do with it.
Now to find a case with the same texture but the top button works.
