iPhone 5 Back Protectors?

[fongyuen]

Any word on a thin back protector yet that will work with cases? Looking for a dry protector that will protect the back and allow me to install a fitted case. If I have to, I might just take an old screen protector and cut out a piece to protect the Apple logo which is exposed in the case.

i'm looking for the same thing, just something cheap (~$1-$2) that I can use to protect the back from getting scratched up in the case. recently just took the film off the back of my 4 and it's pristine.

There's a list of 5 back protectors for the iPhone 5 here.

Personally I think I'm going to go with the dodocase bookback cover. I've used something similar for my iPad 2 in the past and was pretty impressed. The leather fabric feels very fancy and helps with the grip.

got my wrapsol today. back went on like a charm but the front gave me some problems and under closer scrutiny it looks like a bad cut on the front. I tried several times to get it aligned up top but the opening does not compensate for the small sensor on the right of the lens. slightly covering it. pissed me off a bit because it took me well over an hour to get it on at least some what correctly at least until I can contact them and have a new one sent.

As I said they are good about returns and I do not think I will have any issues.

I actually like the back better than the front any way and may get the power support when it comes out. The wrapsol seems a little different than what I remember, its more sticky like the other ones Zagg in particular, which I hate. Power Support has that nice glare protection and does not have same feeling.

Could you post a pic of the fitment issue? Are you saying the iPhone 5 Wrapsol material is different than the 4/4S product was?

DODOcase BOOKback

Hey guys,

We've been making the BOOKback for iPhone using our bookbinding fabric. It gives the back of the iPhone some texture and protection from scratches.

What about Ghost Armour? Has anyone tried that brand?

I don't know if you are specifically looking for clear. I ordered a black carbon fiber from dbrand.com. Looks like the most accurate cut out there. Check out their facebook page for pictures of the iPhone 5 model.

I'm looking for a thin one too, just to protect the back from any debris that gets inside of a case.

Hey just quoting to update you.
They released the vivid yellow today, heres the amazon link because there doesn't seem to be a purchase button on their site. Comes with a front and back protector!

Thank you very much for the update!! Hmm the yellow is very vivid...lol
Maybe I'll wait until early next week and hope they release another color that isn't so bright or just purchase this one.
For now I feel like my phone is somewhat safe being in a CandyShell.

I really like that case too. But I agree, the yellow is a bit much. Would love to see a blue or gray one soon.

No problem at all! SGP said the next one to come out will be the all black version. First week of October hopefully

Thanks for the information! I might have to give it a try. I had a PowerSupport back on my 4, but I don't see any sign of them putting out one for the 5.
