I'm thinking of getting this in Low Ride Plaid or Hydrant Big Stripe Fade...have you heard anything about this case yet? I can't find any videos or reviews online...
This looks like a pretty decent/simple bumper and shield. Any one have good or bad reviews on this?
I was planning on going naked, but if there is a simple design to keep the back from scratching when placed on a table, that might be the easiest way.

I emailed otterbox. This is what they told me:
The proximity sensor was slightly moved on the iPhone 4s. The sensor no longer lines up directly with the hole in the iPhone4 Defender Series Case.

Im probably going to order a Juicepack Air Plus. I have a Juicepack Air on my 4 and love it plus 5.0 is more battery hungry. on 4.2 lately I could get from 9am-8pm before having to turn on the juicepack since I upgraded to 5 I have to turn on the juicepack around 5-6.
My only worry is my iphone 4 somehow has a scratch and some wear on the back from the juicepack....hopefully they fixed it in the juicepack air because I dont want my brand new phone to get all scuffed from the case....ugh.

InCase Pro Slider
I just ordered 2 InCase Pro Sliders, one in white with black trim, and one for my wife that is white with raspberry trim. We have always used sliders and like them. This seems to have extra shock protection with the rubber bumper, and a felt lining back that keeps back from scratching. I bought a InCase Hybrid tonight, but am taking it back, dont like it.

FYI, for now the Pixelskin HD case will have the vibrate switch offset because they did not redesign a Verzion version when it came out. I contacted Speck and they said they just shipped updated versions to retail Apple Stores for the 4s launch and expect to update their website inventory in 3-4 weeks time.
I used this for my 3GS too. Loved it, but wished it held up better. They crack and break at the bottom. If you buy from Speck directly, they will replace it. However, you can also buy them for half the price on amazon.com. Not sure if the 4 series has the same lack of durability.
I read a lot of positive reviews on otter box cases. The defender series is some heavy duty protection. I went for their commuter series - looks very similar to Speck Candyshell. Can't wait for it to arrive.
Do the old style dock connector plugs fit in the cut-out? That was my only problem with the Apple bumper. Other than that, I love that style of case. The Satin Silver for these right here looks amazing.
I got an INCASE Pro Slider today! (in white) leaving it in the box till the 4s, I don't want to spoil myself and put it on my iPhone 4. haha
Is Verizon the only one that has the buttons offset?
I'm looking for a case for the Sprint Iphone. Most are universal but kinda curious.

Me too. But I have a candyshell card....cause keeping them with my phone makes one less thing i can forget in the morning.
I had the Otterbox defender and commuter for my iPhone 4. I really liked both but the rubber sticks to my pocket really bad. I cannot decide what case I'm going to get for the 4s. I like how "slick" the candy shell cases are but I may miss the protection of the defender. Any ideas?
I ordered the iPhone suede jacked from Waterfield/SFbags.com. It looked to be the thinnest thing I could possibly get for the phone.
I used to get fullbody Zaggs (or similar), just Zagg on the screen, hardcases, softcases, etc. Then realized I have only ever dropped my phone when I am stumbling drunk (twice in 3yrs...drops not drunks haha), and I also worked building sets in a full shop for 4yrs...so I figure the glass seems to easily be replaced and I have already wasted way too much money on cases that were a just in case type of deal. Gonna see how it goes with just a thin pouch to keep the sand out (main contributor to scratches).

i think im just gonna get the otterbox defender. the white iphone 4s should fit perfectly right?
Ordered a Griffin Flexgrip Punch. Perfect case to add a little traction to the back of the phone and something that won't peel a screen protector.
I was tied between a few - Otterbox Reflex, few Switcheasy cases and the Speck Candyshell.
I actually ended up ordering an Otterbox defender because it doesn't seem as big as I originally thought... I'm using an LG Voyager with a (very) thick case on it now and measuring it out it'll actually be smaller.
Why? Part of my job entails working in a warehouse moving freight and large boxes. I've bumped / slammed the pocket my phone is in more times than I could count.
