Best iPhone 4 case?

Hi London Lad

Here is the link to that http://awrapforthat.com/

Enjoy. Just installed mine yesterday. I suggest you use the spray or the gel sponge you got from invizishield when installing this.

I going to drop in and just give you my $0.000002

I have a Bumper, two Griffens, three iFrogz Luxe Originals - and I have a ZAGG Invisible shield.. I'm also on my second iPhone 4 (as the first had the dreaded "No SIM" issue..?"....

I'm not much of a "case man", as I prefer naked (well, not me, exactly - but my previous other iPhones I like to run "naked" 😉 )..

However, at BestBuy today - they had the new iFrogz "lean" - and it is slimmer than any other of my other cases for my iPhone 4 (see above)...

And you know what?? I'm sitting on my deck with FIVE BARS and FULL SERVICE - held in my HAND (my LEFT HAND!)! I have NO IDEA if it is the cut-outs on the "lean case" - but dammit - my reception is now BETTER than my 3GS, 3G, iPhone original 4GB or 8GB or 16GB. I have bars - yea baby!!!!

I suspect some designer did the ifrogz "lean case" as a testament to "design". In my case (no pun intended!) did the "cut outs" on the side antennas - and for that, this case fixed my reception issue over the Belkin, bumper, Griffen and other designs...

Today - in a "poor reception area" - I did not drop a single call, have 5 texts messages from my son that actually came through - and..

Well... Whatever.....

Get a ifrogz "lean".. That's my vote - and no I'm not associated/affiliated/whatever with anyone.. I'm just pleased as h e_ck with my case and NOW - finally - my iPhone 4!!!!

I like the iFrog Luxe, because the bottom slips off to allow me to set it in the dock.

BTW, the original iPhone dock works perfect for the iPhone 4.

Just pre-ordered my battery case. 🙂

It looks nice, if I had that case, I'd only need to charge once ever 2 days.

What a douche bag, you haven't tested it, only assuming, because it's made of aluminum.. It clearly states, it is lined inside, but of course you'r closed minded on a product that's not out yet!

Douche bag!

Twice is the charm, eh??? 😉

Please tell us - what do you use as a case on your iPhone 4 that "works for you"? I already posted my reply. I apologize, but perhaps I missed your choice, as I'm quite certain you do not carry whatever phone you do have in - your terms - your "douche bag".

Of course - I could be wrong.

Have a wonderful evening.

I am awaiting on the element case, which someone else on this forum keeps repeadingly dogging. A case which has not even been really tested, only by one user on here which says it's working great.

I apologize for the double negative post, it was a little uncalled for

Apology accepted..

My thanks for that - and as well - it takes a bit of pride to stand up and apologize in front of many folks. You did that - and you have my thanks and respect.

Carry on..

John

OK I'll ignore your rudeness and have one more attempt at explaining it.

In 1990 I set up an independent mobile phone repair businesses. When I sold the company to an multi-national in 2006 it was one of the largest (if not the largest) provider of repair services to the mobile phone insurance industry in Europe dealing with thousands of phones per day. I am only telling you this so that you understand that I have some considerable experience with RF and mobile phones.

I don't need to test a piece of metal to know whether in screens radio waves, it's a scientific fact.

Think of a piece of co-ax cable that you would use for your satellite dish or TV aerial, it has an outer braid or foil screen made of metal, this is to stop the signal getting out of the centre conductor of the cable. Think of a microwave oven, it has a metal case and metallic or metal impregnated plastic door seals, this is to stop the microwaves (which are radio waves) form getting out. Think of a satellite dish itself, it has a big metal or metal impregnated or coated dish. This stops the waves from the satellite passing through and bounces them back into the horn of the LNB.

Wrapping metal round your iphone antenna WILL reduce its sensitivity and radiated power.

The fact that the case you refer too is lined inside makes things no better.

Try checking your phones signal strength and then putting it in a biscuit tin for a few minutes and see how much it drops the signal. Even a real carbon fibre case for a iphone 3 will knock a bar or two off your signal in weak areas.

I wish I was wrong as its a stunning looking case, but I'm not.

+EDIT: Just seen you apology which is accepted ;-)+

I had a speck case for my 3gs and that worked amazing. Im going to invest in another one for my 4, assuming the results will carry over. Slim and durable, just what I need 🙂

What low class foul language is being used here by such gutter snipes!

There will be many cases out there in the coming few weeks, we all have out opinions based upon OUR needs.

You need to find one which will meet YOUR needs...

Can you provide a few more details .. ie what are you protecting it from ? is it a protector ro a style case ? do you need to remove it from the case frequently etc etc
