I'm going for a Gear4 Icebox Edge, combination of style and protection I think. SwitchEasy Vulcan clear is another option if you want silicone :)

Is there a bumper that also has covers for the buttons? Maybe an aluminum bumper with soft shock absorbing material ont he inside for drops and button protection?

UPDATE:

I have been keeping track of all the forum topics here about White iPhone cases. And I have compiled a list of my favorites here: http://listentotristan.blogspot.com/...iphone-4s.html

I will continue to add to it if cool cases pop up.

I wanted protection but didn't want to cover up the cool design of the iPhone itself so keep that in mind while looking at my choices.

I'm pretty sure it'll fit since the iPhone 4S is the same design/size as the iPhone 4.

4 CDMA Verizon is the same design as the 4S the at&t version is not the same so cases are not interchangeable.

The ebay ones will NOT fit the 4S

Hey everyone!

I am new to the iphone family, currently and Ipad Macbook user. I am looking for a case that is good for a drop or two that doesn't cover up the back up the phone to the point of not seeing the awesome white color.

I do want protection though. I had a hard rubber case on my last smartphone and I could throw it across the room haha (not gonna do that here) but I just don't want that glass to shatter :)

Thanks!!!

Any pics would be great too!

The white ones from Speck are really nice

Good Luck

Does anyone here own a white iphone 4 and uses a clear Incase snap case?
I would really appreciate some photos and your opinion on it. I would love to get the clear frost snap but nowhere in the UK stocks it!

I have a similar problem, but tend to drop my phone rather often. So often my Agent18 case on my 3G wore down, and is not able to completely close. The ones listed tend to seem not very protective, except for the Whiteout which is very expensive? Does anyone know of something that is good to show the white, protective, and a decent price?

EDIT: When I say often I mean about once a week. Probably a little less.

I just saw a video review for this, looks awesome. However, I couldn't find a place to buy Gear4 Icebox Edge case, is it only available in the UK?

I'm tempted to get this: http://www.amazon.com/Hornettek-Inj..._1_3?s=wireless&ie=UTF8&qid=1318214477&sr=1-3

And just dremel out the mute button area so it fits. It is soo sleek :)

I was really tempted to get it too! I love it so much. And if you are going to buy it you can save a few here http://www.buy.com/prod/hornettek-l...le-injection-technology-design/221250704.html I decided it probably wouldn't fit so I just got the Griffin Reveal in white. It's similar but it doesn't have the clear so you can't see the metal band :(

I'm going with the clear Switcheasy Vulcan case for my white 4S. Looks cool and I love all the extras you get with their cases (screen protectors, 30 pin connector protector, microfiber cloth, etc).

I did not get white cause I'm a guy... However if I was a female I would go with this case:
