I think it will IMO but I'm not too sure. Some says it will some says it won't. Anyway you can just change it back to the original back if you need to send it in for warranty just to be safe.

I tried to search about this but I got many answers. Some say once you remove the screws, you will void the warranty. Some say you can remove the back part and it will not void the warranty. Im not sure whether it will void warranty or not.

Obviously if you alter the phone in anyway it will void the warranty since its not meant to be removed. The blame would rest on your side since you made unauthorised alterations to the phone. Whether Apple can detect it if you fix it back to stock is another question.

have been using the apple original bumper for more than a week now. my review?

pros:
- you can feel the thinness of the phone
- doesnt add extra weight or size to the phone
- does give the phone enough protection (if you have a front and rear protector applied)

cons:
- quite expensive considering how there are no SP or etc included in the packaging
- when in the pocket, you will now know which side is front of back - think this applies to all bumpers.

overall, quite happy with the bumper. looking to try out glam rocka from more-thing. smile.gif

I agree that the original bumper is pretty expensive. Its so light and thin and gives you a better grip. I have my carbon fibre applied on the rear so I know which side is front and back, plus, I always put my phone into my pocket the same way.

no need to buy those branded CF, even those CF sold in LYN is a bit overpriced. Just buy from eBay, the quality is the same, should be less than RM30

I am using sigema pro case casing . The casing is fine but it generates a lot of heat while surfing the net especially . Now I was wondering if I should continue putting the casing as it really protect the phone from scratches. On the other hand it generates so much heat feel like my amd laptop.

Hey guys I have an SGP ultra crystal protector, but my iPhone might be faulty, so I may have to get a replacement. Can I peel it off and use it on another unit later? The thing isn't cheap. Or will apple willingly give me a new one? Doubt they are that good.

I'm currently using bubble case for my iphone which i love cos it's really thin looking and protect well, imo. I'm thinking of getting a cheap flip case for double protection especially from dirt/oil when eating out.

I think my iphone can fit into a flip case (hopefully) but will it generate more heat due to the double case? Or are there any other suggestions?

Well, I bought my wife the SGP Valencia Case and it's perfect for her. Especially when she chuck her phone into her handbag with you know what women have in their handbag. Easy to clean the soft smooth leather when it gets dirty. If u don't like the crystal floral design, u can go with the SGP Argos Leather Case.

The SGP Crystal Clear is thin compared to the Oleophobic SP. It get scratch faster compared to Oleophobic. Also, removing Oil & Fingerprints easier for Oleophobic. I've the crystal clear 1st then changed to Oleophobic and never will go back to crystal clear again. Am very happy with Oleo!
