Just bought it. Good/bad decision? Any details about installation and its use and functionality is much appreciated. Thx
 
I like my crystal Air Jacket. Yes, it does get scratched easily, but that's on the surface, not the inside. I had it on my old iPhone 3G for over a year. After I took it off, the phone was still in perfect condition.
 
thats unlikley as there has not been 1 person to report the PS air jacket HAS NOT messed up their bezzel.
 
I use to tell people to get the Air Jacket, but they are exactly what slapppy said.

The clear one scratches like no other and the black one's paint chips off the corners.

I love its minimalistic design, but there are better options out there, like the Incipio Feather.
 
The matte black one is horrible.

Yep, add me to the list of those with a PS Air Jacket sitting in a drawer collecting dust. I switched to the Incipio Feather (one red, one white) and for ultimate protection I'm using the Speck CandyShell. Love the Feather's when I'm wearing a suit and just want minimal bulk!!

Have both too (Candyshell & Feather), but I find that even the Feather can cause slight scratches on the back. I am a Candyshell man now (Batwing - good enough for even a suit!).

But I went with a Feather over the Air Jacket - Feather is better of the two, IMO.

I also had the black Air Jacket and it did indeed scratch the hell out of my bezel. I ended up using the Radtech Bezel Blaster to buff out the scratches and gave the AJ to a friend. Back to the Magnesium Incase Slider.

Been using the Candy Shell and just ordered the Feather for a thin-as-possible case. I hope the Feather won't disappoint, as I've been spoiled by the Candy Shell, which leaves absolutely zero marks on the phone...
