Well, I have had the Griffin Reveal for a solid week or two and the clear back is on my nerves already. You see every single little speck of any dust or anything in it on the white iPhone.

I just ordered the Speck Pixelskin HD in the Harbor Blue.

Hopefully that works for me.
 
This is one of several cases I stumbled upon while browsing eBay. The first comment I always get is, "is it Batman?" I wasn't sure if I was going to like it, but it fits like a glove and feels nice in hand. ($4.79 on eBay)

The pictures could have been a lot better, but I rushed.

WOW, nice!!! Ordered! Thank you for posting! :D I too saw the 499 and was like OMG!!!!
 
I'll never understand people who choose AppleCare+ over cases. Drop that thing 3 times and you'll end up paying 650+ for a new one. It only covers two accidental damage claims.

Actually you would pay $229, or whatever apple charge for a replacement. If you loose the phone...well then it doesn't matter if you have applecare or a case.
 
400 dollars, is that a joke?

I just received a response from the seller about the $399.99 pricetag. They are currently out of stock until tomorrow, so instead of ending the auction they just made the price ridiculously high so no one would buy it.

Did the same thing. Kinda weird method but okay seller :D
Obviously something wasn't right. Thanks for the reply tho.
 
S Shape Case (eBay, $2.95)

This case feels very nice in hand and looks good as well. I figured I would give it a try considering it was $2.95 to my front door.

I have just ordered the HardGraft ip5 fold wallet in grey.
Looks just what I need and want.

Can you pm me the links too please?
 
Apple charges full price for a brand new phone.

You were talking about replacing a damaged phone, right? So the cost of the phone if you break it without a case, correct?

If you have the phone, even if it is in pieces, they will replace the phone for $229 if it is a i5. The 4s replacement price was $200...I know I had to have mine replaced after fishing it out of a lake. That is their policy.
 
I might go nekkid, the only thing that does worry me is scratching the camera glass on flat surfaces!

The new lens cover on the 5 is sapphire crystal, it's gonna be pretty hard to scratch that.
This is the same type of crystal used in the best watches. Like Cartier, Rolex.

I hope you mean applecare+ normal applecare will do nothing for you if you drop and bust it.

AppleCare+ is the only type you can purchase for the 5
 
Where did you find this at? Looks really good. I would like to know more about it. I like the fact that the apple logo is open.

eBay of course. Having the Apple logo cutout has been a must for me since I had the 3G. Although I have been trying others just to get a feel for the materials. This case does look very promising.

Purchased these:
- Grove Bamboo case (grovemade.com)
- Pinlo Slice 3 (http://pinlo.com/e/products/88/Slice 3 for iPhone 5.html)
- Puhama Leather Wallet from Etsy (http://www.etsy.com/listing/110063417/hc20-hand-stitched-handmade-personalized)
- SFBags Suede Jacket (http://www.sfbags.com/products/iphone-cases/suedejacket-iphone.php)

I have no idea how this happened. I only ever needed one ****ing case.

I know what you mean. I have ordered around 10 from eBay. They are only like $5 on average, but I seem to be really picky with the iPhone 5. Beauty needs beauty.
 
Bought this generic bumper at my local mall.

The sides are transparent, which lets the silver band show. It looks pretty good.

Careful with these, grit will get behind the clear plastic and scar the band, especially the corners.
