Wow, i just looked up the incipio offgrid ,

Looks stunningly slim ! May be the slimmest charge-case ever made?

I love the slight curvature on the back , It's 69,99 USD,

So i think it would be at least RM250 when it reaches here?

Yes . It's true that FedEx courier gets taxed often , this is because FedEx has some freight charges which increases the amount of tax charged . I've experienced this personally. DHL didn't get taxed and delivers fast to my area smile.gif

TPU: Smooth feel, usually hard plastic.
Silicone: Rubbery feel, usually easy to stretch.

Verdict: Silicone usually catch lint easily than TPU tho, it absorbs impact and bump much better than TPU case.

Silicon cases tend to stick whatever thats in your pockets laugh.gif

I used them before, boy oh boy , i had no idea that so much lint was in my pocket..

Doubles as a pocket cleaner! tongue.gif

It depends on what silicon case u use also la, try using switcheasy colors and I can assure u no lints at all. If got also very minimal...

Look what arrived in the mail today! biggrin.gif

What I love about the Comp is the volume cradle-type buttons, makes snappin photos lots easier in landscape mode! ,

Another thing is, it is lighter than the Vapor Pro , feels much more comfortable without the sharp edges of the Pro ( though thats the sexiest part of the Pro , but gaming on it is a little tough hmm.gif )

Got this case from Sean, Very friendly and helpful seller, i was torn between the white comp or the epiphany, but he resolved it for me, and I have no regrets at all with this case!

The power button is brushed aluminum tongue.gif

edit : note that its not the original epiphany, else it'd be even more awesome! drool.gif drool.gif

The only difference i see is the power button.

it is less flushed compared to the real thing as well as the finishing is not as good.

I guess i could sand it then polish it to make it shine even more icon_rolleyes.gif

Probably the only difference charging from battery pack is the Ampere.

Unless the battpack supplies an amp of 5A , i dont think the batt life will decline tongue.gif

I honestly doubt you bought everything original in your life mate. smile.gif

Theres no harm in sharing photos, be it original or fake .

I admire people like you though , If everyone was like u , no copyright problems would occur .

Too bad the world is not perfect .

Hate to say it, but i haven't  bought anything FAKE ever.......i live in the USA and originally from HongKong. I'm just being honest......but when the guy who's doing the dirt wanna make a comment to justify his way of making money through other pplz hard work.......YOU ARE A THIEF........nothing more nothing less. Pictures are fine, but i still dun agree with it and i don't even like Element case all that much....however if yah gonna copy them and sell them USE A DIFFERENT name to sell them......but not the case no only stealing intellectual property but stealing the trademark name!

You are right the world isn't perfect, but hey with pplz like me companies get their money back from these thieves! like the punk said "Suspicious i made and acct at 3:....and write at 4" it's because i am an Esq here in the USA out of NYC.

copyright infringement! Hope they use me when they find you and sue the heck out of the factory you are using and end  your business! Plenty of tasks forces out there these days for me to hire! From Shenzen China to New York USA...it's getting realy small this world!!! GL playing the illegal game!

Isn't china the best at copyright infringement mate? There's no stopping the buyers from buying, unless u get rid of the source of the problem.

If i'm not mistaken , these fake Element Case cases come from china too!

we're just consumers who buy what we like , there's no law that says consumers cant buy copyrighted products when the world is selling them ,aye?

I believe u should take action on the fake apple store's first , if u noticed . In Malaysia , almost everything came from China is in those 99cents shops where there's a ton of copyrighted products.

China can't even handle their own copyrights , what say Malaysia sweat.gif

Oh, sorry, it's not my website nor do i sell any element cases, i'm just defending my rights to buy what I love ,and suits my wallet tongue.gif

anyway, i support the anti-piracy act , but on certain stuff, i couldn't care less about imitations or real thing .

element case is doing fine , people still rather buy the real thing , as they're service is close to perfection.

but I cant afford to , so i choose the latter , being cheap imitations ( just like the world tongue.gif )

Any of you guys are using Cleave Aluminum Bumper ? Where should I stick the sticker and why does my lock button unusable after I screw in the screw lol ... I can't press the metal button on the bumper

sticker? is it like a padded sticker?

if so, i think its for your home button, stick it there , so that u can press it better with the case on ?
