Got it at Best Buy this morning! Loving it so far!

I got the same one today from best buy as well (guess I'm like the 3rd, 4th person here). I don;t see an issue with the flash and camera, as the holes for both are cut out well enough, so it should not be an issue.
 
Just got my white iphone bumper in the mail today! Loving the black/white color so far! Still have reception issues though so bumpers dont fix the problem :confused:

I got the white griffin too and definitely noticed the flash "bloom". I took the sharpie to it and saw a lot of improvement. The case is real nice other than that.

So no one is supporting the orange bumper on black? Thinking of getting that one myself.

What "bloom issue"? I have the same phone, same case, and NO issue!

The flash is reflecting off of the clear plastic that surrounds the lens and directs too much light to the camera. Makes it look washed out. Take a pic in low light with the flash on, with and without the case on. I saw it and painted the rim of the opening with a sharpie and it went away. :shrug:
 
im planning on getting an iphone 4 once otterbox defender comes out. my question is that people using cases/bumpers...are you still getting cracks/chips
 
I love iSkin, wish they would move faster and release the Enigma for the i4... that case is awesome.

Can't really take a pic due to the iPhone 4 being my primary camera now since my Sony point-and-shoot died, but i'm rocking THIS case and I LOVE it! For
$15.99, I wasn't expecting much and I was gonna use this during the wait on an iSkin Solo like gel case, but honestly, I believe this is just about the same as an iSkin. It feels like the same material, and it offers the same level of protection! ;)

The one thing I really love about it is that it won't get stuck when coming in and out of my pocket

Where did you get that?

When I purchased my iPhone 4 they only had the black bumper cases for sale. I was a little disappointed at first but in the end I realized black looks best with the black iPhone. FWIW, reception issues aside (I did not have any, even without the Bumper case installed), I really like the fact that the case elevates the back of the phone by a millimeter or so. This is a wonderful feature as it protects the back from getting dirty or scratched up by what ever surface you choose to lay your phone on. And, it also serves to keep the phone from slipping or sliding.

Installation of the Bumper case was a little quirky at first. I had some minor issues with the power button since the space between the power button and case power button is tight. After while though, and a few minute adjustments, it seems fine now. I give it a two thumbs up!

I think I prefer it with the Bumper, takes some of the sharp edges away :)

Oh, only BLACK is available at the moment it seems (at least in the UK) so won't be seeing any coloured bumpers for a while I reckon

Would be keen to see a case that has a slightly curved back like the 3GS as I'm not all that impressed with how this thing feels in the hand :(

I notice that with the bumper on the new iPhone 4 your O2 signal bars are very low in the first picture.:(

Best Buy. That's where I got mines in dark blue, but I'm returning it so I can get a white bumper. The case works really well though. I just want a white case to compliment my black phone.

It's not actually an Apple bumper case it's a case made by Griffin and its an all in one case with rubber on the outside and a carbon fiber / graphite back to add more protection.

Looks cool...

What's the name of it? I don't see it on griffin's web site.
 
And I thought iPhone had "industrial design"

It turns out Apple prefers "Toys R Us" style ;)
 
My wife has the Belkin case from Best Buy and it sucks big time. The power button and volume buttons are AWFUL. It is a case that was not properly made for the iPhone 4, I think they must of made it before they actually had an iPhone 4. People need to stop recommending it, because it's crap. It's not good. It's awful. Yes, I'm that passionate about it.

I got the Griffin Reveal from best buy, and so far it's good - not amazing, just average. I just really dislike the grippy rubber in my pocket. Putting in my pocket and putting it back in is so annoying.

We're taking our cases back soon as incase releases their cases or until we can find a better case. I've thought about getting a white bumper and just doing a skin on the back... seems like it would cover everything I would need. I just need to know if a bumper is annoyingly grippy to put in your pocket, and if it's annoying to take it out... is it problematic? aka sticky/grippy?

What is the point of having a beautiful designed phone, when you hide it in a plastic condom? It's like driving arround in in a really nice car that is covered in plastic because your too afraid that it get scratched. A phone is use object and it just get scratched, you should live with it, but after seeing all this shattered back and fronts of iPhone 4, I understand a bit more why people do this, it's very sad that apple is not able to design a more resistant phone and forcing people to use this condoms, why not gorilla glass apple whyy?

then dont buy a case, and then when you drop your phone come here and take pics with the glass all cracked and it looking like s*** like everyone else does. some people like protecting their phone, even though is means sacrificing the look sometimes. i dont think their is one phone out there which isnt the case.
 
I've always been obsessive about screen protectors and cases. Mild case of OCD. Before I got the iPhone 4, I ordered this case from Amazon as I like front & back protection whilst the phone is in my bag:

I had the 3GS version and it was the best case by far for that. Easy to pop out when needed and complete protection whilst carrying it around.

Only thing was that the flash problem occurs with the new iPhone 4 case. I didn't want to have to keep taking it out of the case when I wanted to take photos.

So I ended up getting a black Apple bumper and this is definitely the best look for the phone IMO. Only thing is that I didn't consider it to be well enough protected when it was in my bag, so I bought one of these from H&M for £1.99 and now I'm all sorted! (Yes, it's girly, but I'm a girl).

I have the phone in the bumper case when sitting on my desk at work or at home and just put in it the pouch when I'm on the go.
