You are most right, let me clarify my previous response.


iPhone 4s (AT&T) - aligns perfectly with the case

iPhone 4s (Verizon) - the mute switch sits just a "hair" higher

Be careful - I just bought an Incase Snap Case from the Apple site, which says it for iphone 4, but the compatibilty shows both 4 and 4s, and it doesn't fit properly - overall size is fine but the mute switch is jammed.

FruitNinja, you know what? I was wondering the same thing, but I heard metal cases actually degrade your phone and internet signals, so you don't want a case that's made in aluminum completely, Especially you don't want to use metal to cover the side of your phone, where the antenna is. I know for sure the side of this case is made of plastic, and aluminum finish on the back looks great. That's all good to me.

My fiance had a speck fitted case for her IP4. I myself just got an IP4 as well, and we both ordered new speck cases (designed for both IP4 and IP4s, small oval or large square camera opening). The newer cases don't seem to fit as tightly as the older ones (designed for IP4, keyhole shaped camera opening). The plastic doesn't seem as beefy around the corners of the new cases as well. My fiance dropped her phone in the old case several times without issue. I dropped mine in the new case and the case broke at the bottom. If the the dimensions of the IP4 and 4s are the same, i'm not sure what the issue is. Both IPs are Verizon.
