best iphone 4 cases

so now that cases are starting to become more available, what is the best case out right now in your opinion? i like my Ideal-Case white "Rain" case personally. it still has that aesthetic look and provides enough protection to me.

macbook 13", Mac OS X (10.5.8)

Tech21 will release their IPhone4 case soon - Probably the best protection available - watch some of their videos

But i also think the Griffin Reveal is a great case at a great price.
(side and back protection and still looks great)

the only trouble with the bumper protectors with the back protection as a clear plastic back is grit gets between them and rubs on the back glass and scratches it very easily. i added a zagg protecter to protect the phone from the case lol... hideous as they are and then added the case on top of that... crazy.

HI there,

does anyone know if the magnet clips in some of the cases you can get will affect the phone in any way?

Thanks

i have seen the Vapor case and it looks great but to many setbacks with them so far on this case which makes me wonder. i did just pick up a new snap on case that is clear on the sides and the back is white and identical to the white iphone 4 (The Great White Hype). its a nice hard plastic case but scratches easily and it is extremely hard to get off. not sure how much ill use this case for the fact that it will scratch easy but it was only $4...prime example of you get what you pay for. i have a Spek Pixel HD on the way and i would like to test out some of the Belkin cases.

I just got the Nude case from switcheasy which is nice if you want minimal bulk; also includes protectors for both ports. Anyone know if it is possible to exchange the free case? I just got mine (Griffin) and it is fugly; no way would I ever put it on my phone.

I ordered my iskin solo for my iPhone 4 (yes iskin has finally released their cases) yesterday. Personally I use iskin and only iskin, best protection ever.

I have several of the Switcheasy cases and love them. They don't peel up the edges of my Ghost Armor, they actually protect it. Cheap enough to get multiple colors.

I bought one that is very similar to iSkin on ebay for only $3.99 (including a screen protector) and I'm very happy with it. I dropped my phone 3x, twice from a high bed and once from my desk, and so far the phone is fine. I like the look of the smoke color on the phone. I like how the buttons (power and volume) are covered. It is made of TPU and it doesn't seem to stretch like the silicone material.

I forgot to add that I'm pleasantly surprised that dirt doesn't get in it easily unlike the other cases I've used for my 3gs.
