looks like bumper is not value for money! (even it is free :D )

there are other nice cases around, for bumper incase is much better.
 
Hope those of you that ordered a bumper don't use any aftermarket cables. My standard 3.5mm headset cable to my AUX IN on my car doesn't fit and the USB data cable I've been using with all my iPhones, also doesn't fit. I love the bumper other than this major issue...

I am thinking about getting the bumper case in order to achieve this look

with the SGP Skin Guard. Has anyone done/seen anyone do this? Does it look nice or like you pieced two different cases together?

I have this combo and love it. There is a tiny gap between them, but with black on black you have to look hard to notice. See this thread...

How does the skin go on? If I decide to remove it will it leave some adhesive residue?

Just peel the top, align the sides and hole for camera, and then peel the rest as the skin falls onto the back. It took me 2 tries, no residue noted when I peeled it off after the first attempt.
 
I went with the Griffin Reveal Etch. I really didn't like the back of the Pixel otherwise I would have gotten that one.
 
Winner Winner

looks like Speck PixelSkin - Black

and Speck leads overall percentage in the whole category

good money $$$$ for them from apple :D

does this setup affect the quality of the pictures or the flash in any way?
 
I went with the pixelskin hd. I'm currently using an incipio feathercase and decided to pick up something totally different.

This video definitely helped me decide.

I'm the same. I have the Incipio Feather and I was choosing between the Incase Snap Smoke or Speck Pixelskin HD

ended up with the Pixelskin HD to try something different. If I don't like it, I'll just go back to my Feather
 
I have the Griffin Etch Graphite and had it for a month almost. Its a good case. My only problem with it is at the bottom under the home button. Between the home button and the 30pin connector, theres a small part of rubber which is part of the case. This starts to sag quite easily because its so thin.

Ive went for the Incase Snap. :)
 
Does the pixelskin hd support all cables and adaptors unlike the bumper where I cant plug in speakers?

If you get the oval version that you see on top you shouldn't have any problems. However, if you get the teardrop version that I got, make sure that you align the skin properly. The cutout should have an even width going all around the lens and the LED light. If you do that, you shouldn't have any problems because that's what I did.

I also have the Black Bumper and it looks nice with the leather skin. :)
