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.

The buttons on the original bumper are obviously better, the cutting is more precise and the materials used for both the plastic and silicon are smoother when you hold it. Note that the edges of the OEM bumper are rougher compared to the original one. I bought all OEM bumpers (except for the green and pink) yet I still settle down with an original black bumper, and abandoned the rest. The moment you tried an original bumper, you will easily feel that the OEM one is less premium.

P/S: Do not think that a RM25 bumper has the same quality as a RM40 one. Some cheaper bumpers are rougher, and the cuttings are less precise, though they claimed that they get stock from the same supplier. You can easily find an original bumper in the forum for around RM80-90, but not for RM129. A bumper only costs $29.

If you're a very careful person, just get a carbon fiber sticked on the rear and don't use any casing. Then you can show off your beautiful iPhone 4 everyday! Haha! Hmm, thought of changing the carbon fibre to leather black.

i see someome post about OEM and Original Bumper.
Okay here the catch difference:

OEM vs Original iPhone 4 Bumper:
1. The OEM have a huge "sleep/poweroff" button. You can easily hit the button by pressing the top of the bumper with phone, different than the original.
2. Metal button: its somehow looks bad on finishing while the original really is a metal with finer polish on it.
3. Rubber material: The original has a solid and nice feel while the OEM has the rubbery feel and can easily get peel off by nails or any sharp edge.

Okay, thats it. I do own both OEM and Original. Just giving my feedback on those two. Yes , the original is expensive, but yeah, you get what you paid.
