Not a fan of the iPhone bumper...

[walds11]

I received mine in the mail today. Great concept, decent protection and good quality, but not a fan of a case with raised edges. Definitely not worth $29. Glad I got mine for free Naked iPhone all the way. How could you even cover just the edges of the beautiful iPhone 4? I carried my 3GS in the Seidio spring clip holster. Waiting for Seidio to release the holster for the iPhone 4.

Wow. Thanks for sharing.

Sell it to me then. I'm sure I'll get it from you quicker than I can get it from Apple.

I'll take it off your hands for you

I agree. I just don't like the feeling of a raised edge on the front. I took my bumper off after a day. If i don't end up selling it to my bro, ill throw it up here for a bit less than Apple's price.

I think im just going to put a clear skin on the back. Any suggestions?

i'm still getting one this week (when they finally come in) but I think I like my Candyshell more. I'll see how they both fair. They should be getting Black, Blue, Orange, and Green. That's what the mgr told me...we'll see.

I was a case addict with my 3G/3GS, the bumper IMO is the best most refined case I've felt.

I agree the case is great, its so minimal and offers side protection.

I totally agree. It adds a bit of grip, & keeps you slightly protected, without covering up the amazing back. I love my green one so far!

As for people who are considering to sell - put it up on eBay. They're going for $40-60. I sold my black one & got $45.

I got one from Apple, but my car charger won't fit. So, I sold it on ebay for almost twice what I paid for it from Apple. Not a bad #fail.

O.K, I'm not tight as I've just forked out £600 for the IP4 (due to be shipped 14th July). But £30.29 delivered from Apple for 1 !!!

Had a switcheasy capsule neo for my 3gs which I wasn't crazy about, and I do kind of like the look of the bumper, but for £30.29.......... ! Hmmmmm

but not a fan of a case with raised edges.

TBH; the raised bits are a feature; the whole point of a bumper is to be a point of first impact, so this is going to protect the screen (and back).

That some people don't like this does produce the possibility of some company just doing a stretchy rubber band for just the sides or something (or perhaps clipped onto the first edge of the metal, not over the screen)

A stretchy rubber band or something for the sides would be right up my alley. In the end, I still like to carry my iPhone naked in a spring clip holster. Maybe slap a clea-coat skin on it.

he was just sharing his opinion on the case?
