Okay... look here...

[attachmentid=2521686]

Fake or original?
How much would you pay huh?
RM160-200 for fake ... or RM400-500 for ori?

Is this fake? I look at the wordings and the colour does not resemble the original. It all depends the preferences of buyer which depends on their budget.

Anyone know where I can get the latest Ori Vapor COMP ? Been trying to find it in trade zone but no sellers for it yet sad.gif

Also, users of Vapor Pro; is the signal loss for it that bad? Thanks !
*
There are a few traders who are selling ori vapor comp; but stocks are very very extremely limited. The reason is due to its price which is considerably high and the demand becomes really low. But anyway you pay what you get. I am waiting for my spectra pro as well.

Anyone heard of lucky labs? I recently took advantage of their sales and got the silver fibreglass back and some spectra wraps and I gotta say, top quality. Cut outs are absolutely precise and the silver fibreglass is absolutely gorgeous. This is real fibreglass btw, not some cheapo decal sticker. They have a carbon fibre variant which uses real carbon fibre as well. I bought all these for damn cheap, 35% off on top of discounted prices during their iPhone 4S launch promo and recently they just had a Black Friday buy 1 free 1 special.

Btw here is some pics of my iPhone 4S with Lucky Labs Matte White Spectra wrap and the Lucky Labs Silver Fibreglass back and of course a silver vapor pro  smile.gif

It looks more sleek in terms of design. Too bad it's not in retail mode yet.

Looks neat. I+Case Alu.
When using the case, it reminds me to 3g/3gs phone look.

Hope no signal issue when using the case.
[edit]And uhh.. you can see the tearing on the screenprotector.. maybe its fit snugly? no idea.

Look at the design which comprises of top and bottom pieces with screw tightening at 4 corners. I doubt the tearing of SP is due to the case itself.

I've used a fair share of metal bumpers in the past with my iPhone 4 including the Blade, Deff Cleave and now a Vapor Pro.

Short summary on the cases:

Tiger Design Blade - Very attractive looking case. But I wouldn't quite recommend this due to the fact the supplied buttons are all metal and there is no form of cushioning beneath them. This causes the buttons to discolour your volume and power button after prolonged use (I used it for about 3 months). Your chrome volume buttons and power button will then be a faded and dark chrome. Also the dock cut out is extremely small. No third party docks will ever work with this case unless they are only as big as your normal USB charger. Edges are sharp as well and if you're not careful you could hurt yourself. Takes some getting used to.

Deff Cleave - Very nice case with not very rough edges but again, dock cut out is so small that you can't fit anything other than your iPhone USB charger. The supplied volume buttons are metal as well with no cushioning so you might get the same problem as the Blade. Buttons does not snugly fit into the holes as well. When you shake the case you can hear a very very annoying rattling of the buttons. This can be solved by pasting some tape on the buttons though.

Vapor Pro - What can I say? The perfect case. IMO you don't have to buy the original. I've seen some sellers selling really high quality fakes and they work just as well as the original. The cut outs, the feel, everything is just perfect. Not that I am advocating piracy here (I'm using an original myself) but I do understand its very expensive and not everyone can afford it.

Conclusion - I've never experienced any signal issues with either case. If you are in it purely for looks the Blade and Cleave are very very nice looking cases but fall way short in terms of functionality. If you are more of a functionality person with third party docks and earphones, stay away from the Blade and Cleave.

Looks nice but I'd stay away looking at that design wise. Again poor cutouts which will cause incompatibility with third party docks or earphones/headphones. Volume rocker and power button are metal with no rubber/tape below it. It will discolour or cause your volume buttons and power buttons to fade. Solution is you can add tape beneath those buttons but it will cause your buttons to be less sensitive.

Thanks for sharing. I'm a bit wary of bumper case scratching the phone. Vapor Casey's design mostly leaves a bit cutout empty for user to reach the button except vapor comp that using polycarbonate with button. Looking at Case+ design, to eliminate the scratching issue, I don't mind not using the button and rocker switch comes with the case. Will really need to check on the fitting whether it has sharp edge contacting the case. Good review you have there pal.

I don't know bro, the best case for me is a case which offers both protection without hindering the functionalities as well as capabilities of the phone. I don't see the point of getting a case where it hinders use of the phone and you have to buy everything but the kitchen sink to add on just to make it work like it is meant to. Just my opinion though!
I don't think you can use your volume buttons on the Case+ without putting the volume rockers on. Take note that the volume rockers is similar to the 3GS volume rockers which is a thin bar thingie. Do note that the cutout on the case for the volume rockers is only a thin slit as well so if you don't put the volume rocker on I don't see how you can change your volume unless you use your fingernails.
*
Not changing the volume setting so frequently though. But good case shall not hindering the usage for these. Anyway still waiting for full review from others.

For users who use either authentic Vapor or fake Vapor, is there any sharp edge that may rub the iPhone which eventually causing scratches, discoloration at the iPhone?
