Hulloo people, just got my grove case yesterday & this is my review..

Pros:
* It is absolutely beautiful, the compliments I get from people.. woohoo.. Also, I feel just as happy about this (maybe moreso) than the phone itself
* Very unique (in design, looks & feel) especially If you opt for a custom design..
* All the necessary cutouts/ slots are perfect (headphone jack/ charger slot/ camera slot) I took pictures with and without flash & had no problems whatsoever
* Does not affect/degrade the antenna by loss of network coverage/signal strength at all (got 5 bars before, still get 5 bars now)
* Smells great (dont think that will last though) but this is a case (being bamboo) that will wear well over time (with scratches and bumps that can add authencity to it.. sort of like an antique..
* The case is a great fit, not loose at all and very snug.. Not heavy at all and makes me feel much safer about holding it,.. It was very slim (the naked iphone) and there was always the fear that the phone may slip and fall .. not anymore
* Great customer service (really) I have yet to meet any apple 3rd party vendor /supplier that is as dedicated to making customers happy and welcomed at grove.. this is something everyone can learn from them.. very prompt replies for emails or most other feedback..
* If you do break the case, they offer you 50% off on another purchase (good, eh? I thought so)..
* It really is a very beautiful case ( I looked around everywhere before I ordered mine and didnt find anything else on the same level of authenticity)..
* Environmentally friendly (being bamboo) if you're into that or a hippy or a good samaritan..etc...


Cons:
* A bit pricey for a case ( I got mine at 120 $US, including shipping, custom design as well as the custom proof, since I am absolutely rubbish with photoshop).. but you need to consider this, you pay for what you get and you wont be dissapointed
* The waiting time for a custom design is still 8-10 weeks (being handmade by a new startup).. But I feel great now, once I have got the case.. for anyone looking to buy the iphone 4, make sure you order this case, BEFORE you buy your phone, so as to save time..

Thats about it.. I couldn't possibly be happier with the purchase..


@ JasonSky, I took some more, as you asked... please excuse the crappy camera.. icon_rolleyes.gif

I prefer Exogear's design to Mophie's - In terms of thickness I think Exogear is slimmer as well but it makes the phone longer.

The black lining part is actually silver and metal.. Mine is silver, anyway.. Although you can opt for a black finish as well.. Silver stands out more (in my opinion, since the phone is black as well).. Black would work though, if you wanted it to appear as part of the phone..

Hope this helps.. I don't have a good camera at the moment.. and have to resort to the built in cam on my Macbook sad.gif

Wow the bamboo case looks good. But not my taste la. I just got the speck case from knuckle. He is a nice guy lol. Fits my phone perfectly but as they said the backside is made from cloth thus will become furry.

Been using my iphone4 for a couple of days now, but I'm getting rather annoyed by the amount of fingerprint and oil on my screen (guess I got oily hands?). Any good screen protector you guys recommend to solve this?

Just bought the XTREMEMAC borders at technocrats, apple store in Kota Kinabalu for my ip4.
Rm89 for two in one set.
I got the black and green.
The sets also includes a screen protector.

Its kinda like the OEM bumpers.
Overall I really like the rugged matte type feels it has.
Never did like the rubber feels.
It fits perfectly and it grips to the phone so it doesn't have that loose feel.
The cut outs are well in precision and I definately recommend this for all the users out there that wants an alternative for the OEM bumper.
