To add to the not a bumper list, my spigen liquid armor came today. Initial impressions are fantastic. Minimalistic case with small footprint but still some drop protection. In my opinion only small things I could ask for is no branding and individual speaker whole cutouts.
Got a tip for us?

Why is it so hard to find a real bumper?

I bought this one on eBay. Looks good IMO, feels good in hand.

I love this! specially registered an account to say this. haha. it also comes with this bumper case, sort of.This one looks to be an interesting case if you need a second screen. Not really a bumper...

No matter what anyone claims or swears...... There will ALWAYS be some sort of signal loss with aluminum/metal bumpers.
That's why I stay away from them even though they look stylish.
Yea I use a Zagg HD. Also there could be signal loss, but nothing that I've noticed.

Thanks. Is that back panel hard plastic and removable?

Unfortunately it's not an exaggeration. It literally made my iPhone 7 feel like a phablet.
It's a great lightweight bumper but the added width was too much for me and my hands.
Right... I was really nervous with all of the negativity and size of the bumper. I have no issues with it and ordered a variety of colors because I like it so much. A note of full disclosure however, I did have a Lifeproof Nude case on my 6s+ so my frame of reference may not be yours.
Yeah it's removable. And totally optional. Although with out it the camera goes past the bumper
Full disclosure....I have small hands (but big feet though)

Awesome. What color is yours? I need the matte black one and I'm curious how that looks real world.
Received my IFCase bumper.
Very nice bumper with a decent amount of TPU for slight shock absorption.
I ordered the space grey to go with my matte black Plus. My only concern is I already have light surface scratches on the shiny part of the bumper. If anyone ordered the matte black bumper, do you have any scratches?
The plastic insert does protect the camera, but appears to scratch very easily. The pic below is scratches from 1 night of use, placing the phone on a table.
I don't seem to have any signal issues the spacing of aluminum around the Antenna lines matches up well.
Happy overall, just curious about the scratching on the bumper frame. May swap it for black if people say they don't have scratches.

That's a case, not a bumper. Not the same thing.Received my IFCase bumper.

Also, no lip on the front to keep the glass off of surfaces.
It is a bumper... That also comes with a plastic insert to use on the back if one wants. I also have the Turata TGSP on, so the lip on the front isn't indicative of how the bumper protects the front of the phone.
Instead of pretending to know what you are talking about, no comment would have been better than the one you made.
Now, anyone else have comments on the IFCase?
