What case are you using for your iPhone 4?

I have quite a few cases I really like, such as the Apple bumper, iSkin Solo, Incipio NGP, PixelSkin HD and some great third party TPU bumper bands. However the one I always go back to is the PixelSkin HD.
 
None now.

The camera/flash cutouts on some of these cases interfere with the flash. They seem to be too close to the camera and flash. The result is the flash hitting the edges of the cutout, causing flash glare in photos. It's quite unacceptable, especially given the quality of the iPhone's camera.

I'm getting one of these:

Or *possibly* this (though I'm wary of an kind of cutout area around the camera and flash):

I'm using a white Candyshell with an SGP Steinheil UltraClear.
This combo enables a safe drop on a tiled bathroom floor. I speak from experience!

Candyshell is one of the best protective cases but its too bulky IMO. Hows the SGP screen shields? Seems like tons of people swear by them.
 
leather hard flip down case

this is my case. I'm really liking it. Nice leather, shows off phone, hard case, thin and flip down front with no magnetic clasp. Flip down flap easily folds under and behind the case, if you wish.

Posting here for more visibility. the litttle leather 'butterfly' it turns out is a wrap for the earbuds. Each earbud goes in the slot,and the cord wraps around the center.

I'm rocking the black Bumper now. None of the other cases really do it for me now. Would be nice if Contour dropped the Showcase real soon. Time will tell though.
 
My collection has grown to 7 cases now. Currently the Body Glove Vibe is my favorite, looks good, decent protection, zero flash issues, and only $15!

Here's a pic of the collection, top row: Incase Snap, Incase Slider, Incipio NGP. Bottom row: Speck Candyshells in blue, white & black. Phone is wearing the Body Glove Vibe.

Bulky AND pain in the ass to take off. The shields are pretty good actually. I'm currently using some cheapie protectors off ebay but, to be honest, I don't see a huge difference between them. If you want to pay $20 for one set of shields, so be it. Personally, I'm just peachy with using the ebay protectors I got and I only paid $6 for a six pack of them. The ZAGG and Speck shields are the ones you'll want to stay away from. Those suck.
 
Current case is...

...Ifrogz Luze Lean Phase. I keep slipping this case on and liking it more and more. The Phase has a different grip from other snap-on cases I've tried, a feel that is especially nice when fishing the phone out of my pocket on the go (i.e. I'm not worried about dropping it).
 
On my fifth case. I wanted something green. I broke down and got an Apple bumper. Very first impression wasn't good. Color seemed too bright, it creaked a little(which stopped after a few days) and seemed cheap(I think because of the creaking). After a few days with it on I grew to love it. My favorite case is the incase snap smoke but for some fun color, the bumper is cool.
 
I have an incase snap. That has saved my phones life. Thanksgivin I guess I blacked out. Woke up and my case was thrashed. Now it has character haha
