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/2011/10/need-case-for-white-iphone-4s.html
I will continue to add to it if cool cases pop up. I have also weeded out the 4S compatible versions
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 was going to get the SGP cases but their website has been down for 3 days already. Maybe they don't sell cases anymore... so disappointing.

Thanks, I am getting the white 4S as well and want one that shows off the design, I will continue to monitor your list! I like the SGP so far.

Just my preference... I wouldn't wear white pants so I wouldn't rock a white iPhone. Black is definitely less feminine.

Yeah they have been going up and down, just gotta keep trying. Clear cache and cookies and try during the day.
I disagree, for several reasons.
While the case looks better than your average $20 case, it's still not very good looking.
Also remember the most essential point of a case is to protect your phone. This case will only do a good job of protecting the sides of the phone. However, you drop your phone on concrete and it lands on the front or back, it WILL shatter. You're paying $150 to essentially only "dress up" your phone. It really doesn't serve the purpose of protecting the phone.
Second of all, it's massively overpriced. Yes, it's made out of all aluminum, but so what? You can find all-aluminum Lian Li computer cases for $80-99 brand new. A computer case is MUCH larger than that bumper, and it uses much more aluminum, obviously. So why the crazy price on it? And before you you say it's a luxury product, keep into account that Lian Li is considered a luxury computer case.
Third of all, that case has a negative impact on the GPS functionality of the phone.
There's a huge, embarrassing and shameful mark-up on many of the cases on the market by these case companies, but Element Case is the most shameful out of all them considering their absolutely ridiculous prices. You can get an all aluminum large cooking spoon, made right here in the US, for $15. Oh, and it has much more aluminum in it than that stupid bumper.
The Vapor Pro has GPS issues per the element thread. But the 3G reception and all of that seem to be fine.
I know what you mean, I think the SGP one would be less bulk than the TRIM.
Have you got any closer to deciding?
I'm between the ebay http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=270823057140&ssPageName=ADME:X:RTQ:US:1123#rpdId
and
Possibly adding http://cnn.cn/shop/apple-verizon-ip....html?osCsid=c0a947dbf340ef189d2202d3c38e3ad7 to it.
And

Really nice choices, I do like them however I just think it's not enough protection for the iPhone. You might as well go naked.
I believe with a Power Support Cover on both sides of the phone, the soft impact resistant edge these covers could provide it will be more than enough for me, when I know I will drop my phone eventually but don't want to ruin the cool look Apple made.
People put tape on windows during hurricanes for a reason, the same applies to a screen protector for a phone, it strengthens the surface.
I didn't think of it like that.
I was leaning toward the Capsulerebel just cos I feel it offers the best protection but I keep seeing that white/satin silver SGP Neo Hybrid Ex and think it looks awesome.
Decisions, decisions.
Loving your site by the way.
I know what you mean, I keep looking at them as if it will answer anything, either way I will not have a protector by the time my phone arrives, sad face haha.
Thanks for the kind words, glad you enjoy it and hope you can continue to
While broswing around found someone who had one on their iPhone 4 Verizon version and said it fit both his friends ATT and Verizon. So Wooooooo!
