I too would like to have a naked phone. The closest I have been able to come is the apple bumper.

I've had no good results with luckylabs or icolorwrap band covers.

Unless you cover 100% of the metal band holding the phone still causes antennagate (and these band covers do not hide all of the metal).

On the updside, the band covers do cause the apple bumper to fit way more snuggly.

The wrapsol Ultra takes away the antenna gate issue.
 
wrapsol ultra takes away the antenna problem if you hold it by your fingertips on the band. if you cup the phone with your whole hand, you still get problems because the ultra only covers the top of the band, not the sides.
 
finally fully transformed into a naked iphone action. I got the SGP ole in the front, generic on the back and now spectra wraps (luckylabs, clear) on the sides.

happy to say thats its not too much of a tight fit in my waterfield suede case. I think after a while it will loosen up.

Im really enjoying a naked iPhone...no need to cover up such beauty. :D:D
 
I'm leaning towards the Jett or XcelCase can't decide and one is priced at 100 dollars...

.....I've had my Jett case on my phone now since well before Xmas and can honestly say - I'm loving it so far!! Its as if the phone IS actually naked as I have the silver version :)

Yesterday - I also received a metal backing plate (one that has metal scew posts instead of plactic) that I ordered. My iPhone 4 now has this look : https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/1032807/`

Have to say that on my version of the plate, the flash SERIOUSLY bleeds into the camera - so much so that when using the flash, it totally obscures the picture:eek: Its not a massive issue for me as I hardly ever use the camera anyway......

....not sure if I like it yet - gonna 'rock it' for a few days and see!

I have always used the iPhone naked most of the time and never had an antenna problem. I am now using luckylabs but that's to add color and grip.

I have read that people that do have antenna problems have solved it by putting on clear tape on the corner.

anyone else going caseless ?
I was torn between the bumper and the incase snap so i took off my skin put the snap frost on and i liked it for a little while and than said to my self why put a piece of hard plastic over my phone, its not going to protect it that much and would probley cause scratches from dust and stuff in between. So i used the bumper and it was great but than i notice it makes the phone look bigger and plus it moves around alot .. so now im with a full skin, Wrapsol on the back, Zagg on the sides and PS crystal on the front.... My current pouch is the SFbags, but im in search of another pouch maybe a little thicker ..
