Just ordered Iphone 4S White - Best Case to SHOW the WHITE?

alexxa said:
one more question, since the matte white plastic side of the iphone is not covered, does it turn blue when you put it in jeans? or do you notice any discoloring of that white plastic side?
Thank You!

not from my experience, there is a VERY slight lip on the case.

since the camera area isn't outlined in black, are you noticing anything strange in flash photos?

i rarely take pictures, and if i do they're not in the dark so i haven't really tested it. my biggest gripe about this case is the camera cut out though. not sure if it has flash issues but its just ugly..
 
I'm currently using a black Apple bumper w/ front and back Power Support screen protectors. Nice and simple.
 
idAmerica DryIce case on the white phone 4s.

the case is pretty cool, but i can't recommend it as it starts to yellow after a few weeks. hard to tell in these photos but its not as frosty as it once was especially around the edges.

This is probably the slimest case you can buy and in the same time to how off your white colour:cool:

Thanks for the pics Rob. That combo is hot, hot, hot! I have seen the white in person and I want it bad. I purchased my 4S 16GB on 10/23 and have a 30day return policy.

Sure thing :) and i'm sure u can see the white in the Apple Store to help you make the choice. I have never actually held/seen the black one in person but I decided a while ago that I was going to go for white all the time. My 3GS was black, but I had a white one for a short while and returned it thinking the black would be look better - it did kinda as the 3GS had a black front too. But I did regret it.

My point and shoot isnt the best quality ever mind you, I really need a new one. I mostly use my phone for pics (that is any photos I take are 90% of the time with my phone), which is why I wanted the 4S.

Like the ones apple sell? Just a knitted pouch to put it in. The side's of the bumper are smooth so it slides right in there without any hassle. Keeps it safe when in my pocket/not in use.

I like the aesthetics of the case, but IMHO I really don't like that "Born In NY" slogan/ad on the bottom. Can you scratch/peel it off?

Grabbed a frosted clear Incase Snap Case today... didn't fit properly (and was too expensive) so I took it right back. On the look again!

Anyone use the Speck Geoskin yet? I like that blue...

Where the top part and bottom of the case meets, it looks uneven, is it a tight fit?

It's a little bit uneven, but you can squeeze it and it helps that a little, but you don't even really notice it after about a day, plus it's only $20 from Amazon. Yes, it's a tight fit.

How snug is this case w/ the PS back?

It went on pretty snug, but no problem.
 
Here's my 4S with SGP Neo Hybrid EX 2 case. It's supposed to be for the iPhone 4 ATT model, but it still fits.

The white bumper comes with a white silicon piece that goes under the white plastic. I just used my old black silicon piece (from my other SGP bumper) and mix/match the two. Also have a Lucky Labs black antenna band with black apple decal and SGP front and back screen protectors.

How is the protection on that case?
I'm planning on getting an Otterbox Reflex for protection/daily use, and possibly this for going out.

I'm curious, did you put the apple decal on the film? Or is it under? If you know what I mean? I'll be getting the Lucky labs spectra wrap soon and was wondering what the best way to approach this is.

Protection: Pretty much like any other bumper case out there. The phone itself is lifted a couple mm from touching any surface. The silicon raises it so it won't scratch. I do have front and back screen protectors on it though to help with scratches. I'm not sure about drops though. I've never dropped a phone and plan not to in the future (knock on wood).

The apple decal is placed on the outside of the film. Putting it under would result in major air bubbles around the decal. When putting on the wrap around the around the antenna, be sure not to stretch the decals.
 
Ha, I've been having the same huge issue with cases since I got my 4S. Currently I use this case - A Nice-PKG POP case.

For me, it's perfect, it shows the white on the front better than any other case I've seen. People always tell me it's the best looking case they've ever seen. BUT- it doesn't cover to top or bottom completely, they are left open. So I'm worried that if I dropped it on a bad angle it would still damage the phone.

If anyone wants pics I'd be sure to help.
