Case Mate has an awesome looking bumper. Too bad none of the sellers in here have it yet.

Just received my case from xavinlyn...

I really like this case, it is not as bulky as I expected it to be and it feels nice to hold it biggrin.gif...

But the bottom part seems to not fit, might cause by my carbon fibre sticker...


Btw, has any one used the switch easy anti-static SP? How is it?

Your case is fine, bro. I have the same one in black. The bottom part is a little loose as well. All TPU/Silicone cases have this issue. It's even more apparent in cases like the Capdase Soft Jacket. About the screen shield, I damaged mine (put them aside on my bed while installing the case, and squashed them by accident) so I can't really comment. Judging by the looks, I'd say they are the same as any other clear SP.

well as you know matte isnt exactly plain surface..if you actually examine clearly the surface has some i dunno wat you call it, teeny weenie micro dots.....so once when light reflects back to it causing a reflection....that's where the pix n vids pixelize....or maybe im using a chiplak SP....dude....mine recommending yours...which model from PS....n how much...

Do you guys really think that expensive SPs are so much better than the cheap ones?
From experience, I'd say they are just about the same. I've seen SGP, Power Support (clear and matte) SPs and I really do think that they're pretty much the same as the normal 15 ringgit ones. The only difference I've noticed thus far is perhaps the added thickness of the branded ones but heck, paying RM90 for a piece of plastic ain't my thing. Branded or not, they still won't withstand scratches by sand/stone/steel. Btw, the matte SPs naturally gives the screen a 'pixelated' tint, doesn't matter branded or ciplak. Some people hate the effect, some don't even notice it. Personally, I'd buy clear ones any day.

It makes a big difference if you hate leaving fingerprints on your phone. In this case, any fingerprint resistant SP will solve the problem. However, some are not precise enough when you apply onto it. Note that any fingerprint resistant SP will cause the display to be a little blurry. In this case, Power Support is the SP which reduce the blurry effect to the minimum. My friend bought another brand of fingerprint resistant SP and it turns out to be more blurry than Power Support. May I know what kind of RM15 ones are they? Some are nice some are terrible. Some are in good quality but some start to cause problems when time goes on. A person should get an excellent SP, whether its fingerprint resistant or crystal clear, instead of keep changing indecent screen protectors which tear off easily in order to keep the screen well protected. In short, choose wisely, and please don't mind to pay a little more to keep your screen well protected.  smile.gif

The blurry issue: Perhaps this is true with anti-fingerprint SPs. Though, blurriness is blurriness and even if it is at a bare minimum, if you're the fussy kind (like me), you're not gonna like matte SPs.

About cheaper SPs: I'm not promoting any particular cheap brand so it really doesn't matter what RM15 SP I am referring to. I'm just voicing out my opinion that paying close to a 100 bucks for clear plastic films isn't a good idea.

I've been using cheaper SPs for years on various phones and I've never seen 'peeling' happen before. Most have lasted me years with some exceptions due to negligence on my (or friends of mine) part. The worst I've seen with a clear SP is the rainbow-ish effect but that's hardly an issue IMO.

If anyone can really show me a brand of clear SPs that does not have the rainbow issue when seen under certain lighting conditions, I would like to see it. Til then, my stance on them remains the same.
