Looks pretty awesome with the Black Leather Back Cover  smile.gif
Overall very happy with this case. Love the matte feel compared to the polished Vapor.
Also the lack of the "Vapor" logo is nice too (hated it)...

i am still waiting for the nickel sad.gif

I'd say 99% similiar...
The signal GPS issues still persists in these OEM cases...
But a cheap alternative to the expensive vapor.

That Martin Fields seem to have a lot of good reviews.
Anyone tried it? Compatible with bumper cases? want to avoid bubbling.

blade is nice case. but the sharp edges behind it sometimes can become a little bit annoying.. huhuh...

i agree. blade looks damn pimp and the accessories hole is a godsend, but its a bit slippery and a bit uncomfortable and it wraps around the phone nicel, but since i change to a vapor4 nickel. the matte finish of the nickel give it extra grip and the flush finish is nice to hold ;p.

receptions for both is good. GPS reception on the blade a bit slow to sync up but i think due to the software, google maps works fine for blade and vapor4 ni.

ceh was hoping to get today because i will be taking a bus from penang back to KL.. and the trip I think will be around 5-6 hours. I dont think my iphone will last that long if I play games constantly.. aih!

Also what do u guys recommend? a case with a battery ? OR a separate portable battery charger?


Added on February 1, 2011, 5:13 pmimcipio off grid is nice but i wont be able to dock the phone with the case on unfortunately

boss i see u this weekend for my backplates ;p.

i use sanyo eneloope. it works good. and can charge around 2.5x for ip4. meaning 1 charge on the eneloop u can charge 2.5x on yer ip4 from flat to full. thats quite a lot of charge.

get a nice long cable and during long flighs i just chug the eneloop on the pocket compartment of the seats or anywhere and it works fine and also it works with iPad and any device that needs 500ma or 1a power usb powered. meaning it charges any usb devices.

the opening for 3.5mm jack is slightly bigger than vapor. and the bottom is almost same with vapor. for clearer view check this video by larry.

The best aluminum case with no signal or gps issues is e13ctron. And for hybrid it would be atomic lor. Huhuhu..

my vapor nickel has no gps or signal issues and the side access to the simcard tray is awesome, easy to remove and replace simcard when travel.

look like almost aluminum case like vapor and blade have drop bar issue or GPS issue .

any user here can tell , have any effect on your network ? and which network you are using , please share some info .

i have zero issues at all and GPS works fine and pretty accurate, drop my phone on dining table height into bare tile floor, a sligth scratch on the vapor sides but nothing broken, the phone acually bounce once or twice before it stay still on the floor.
