For those interested, I just got myself the Mipow Clone battery case. Might be doing a quick review on it later, but as first impressions go, it's:
1) Plasticky and a tad creaky (at least compared to the Morphie Juice Pack) but it fits very well on the iPhone 4 and feels very compact. It's not too heavy as well.
2) As for protection, it does not really feel like it's gonna survive a hard drop to the floor from head level well. After all, it's built from a lot of thin plastic panels. Also, screen protection is minimal to none, more like the Exogear then anything else.
3) Its main attraction, the replaceable battery, works well enough in practice, with the supplied 1500mAh Nokia BL-4L clone bringing a 36% down iP4 to 77% within reasonable time (didn't accurately measure how long yet though). Plus the fact that I have a LOT of spares at home, this should mean long uninterrupted runtimes with a few simple external battery swaps.
So, is it worth the money (RM220 in this case)? Well, it depends, are you willing to give up durability and toughness for a respectably thin profile and the ability to swap battery cells at will?
If not, you're probably better off with the similarly priced but better built Mili Power Spring 4 or any of the even cheaper chapalang battery cases (which are generally bulky but solid). Or save yourself the trouble and splurge on the tanklike Mophie Juice Pack (Air or Plus, doesn't matter) for even better built and protection.
A better review with pictars will be incoming later.

Anyone using Blade case here? I just received mine last week and signal is a massive problem at low signal area. I do not have any issues at places with strong reception though. I even insulate the insider of the case with electrical tape just like vapor, but it doesn't help at all. Any good advice?

Erm guys I got a crack extending from the earpiece laterally and to the top... I'm looking for some case which can cover the ugly crack on the top of the screen and yet does not feel cheap... I remember coming across a low yat guy selling something like a sticker sort of thing with customized design that can be pasted on the back and also on the front..
Can anyone link me? Or better can anyone show me any of the casings that i can use? Thanks

Hmm..When I first used vapor without the electrical tape, GPS did not work. Now it's working fine (with electrical tape). As for Blade, u hardly feel the signal drop unless u are at poor reception area. GPS works out fine even without electrical tape insulated on the inside of the case. Thanks for your suggestion.
