I'll be happy to do that... but i'm using sucky internet connection here over in my hostel.. even have problems posting.. but it does work as advertised.. for the quality of the case.. nice and solid.. if you want something like the incase slider go with it... but, I had to take off my front part of my bodyguardz screen protector and use the switcheasy screen protector.. sleep.gif.. or else it wont fit..

Bought BodyGuardZ from twinkles... The quality is nice though but it does collect dust on the edges... after putting the bodyguardz... cases would fit but it is very tight.. not recommended though.. hence i removed mine and cases only will fit properly.. if u like you iPhone to be naked then use a skin... but if u want something that can protect your iPhone from drops better get a case ie: Capsule Rebel, Neo or maybe a Griffin Clarifi.. By far the best I've used..

The SwitchEasy Capsule Rebel "RebelTiger" cost $49.90.. I think after conversion will be around RM115..

Super Cool and an Eye Catching Case...Attached Image Attached Image

Oh I see... There are more colours which is nice too... RebelSkeleton and RebelDevil is also SUPER...
Was having prob in deciding between 3.. Anyway i went with the TIGER.. which I think is the most striking one among the 3..

By the way.. the picture above is with your bodyguardz (BACK) on... Abit tight leh showing some chrome.. I scare it will spoil my new rebel..
It is like ripping on the silicon when i snap the final clip..

Can u give me some comment??? OR should I remove my 2nd BODYGUARDZ (The last one i have)??? SOB.. cry.gif

thanks..

Yea thru web.. its coming by UPS which i ordered on the 31th DEC till now haven reach me.. Its in COLOGNE,Germany now.. lolz maybe tumpang flight to KL.

I doubt it will scratch it.. The terahedron from moshi works well.. Like the Moshi iPouch it will not scratch it but clean it.. Im also a proud owner of a Moshi iPouch so I ordered the Moshi Concerti for my formal event's case.. Hehe..

Haha.. No la , i'm not so easy to get offended wan.. tongue.gif haha.. its cool by the way u give me an honest opinion (Thanks) biggrin.gif .. never try silicon case b4 cuz its a total lint catcher.. you put a silicon case in ur pocket and u be digging ur pocket for it because its so hard to get it out.. I watched several video reviews on this case before buying it.. its nice though.. hmm.. i think it will fit with the invinsible shield + iPhone 3G.. because it fits the iPhone 2G as well... hmm.gif

Get Moshi iPouch.. Very good in cleaning finger prints.. Can use it as a microfiber cloth also... or if got money then get iKlear at Machines..

To those people who have the sagging issue of the capsule Rebel.. This gotta do with the colours.. I used White,Devil,Tiger and Arctic before..

My black and Arctic sag like hell.. But my white and tiger is in perfect condition.. in my opinion the white and tiger's material of the rubber is harder then the black and arctic.. stay away from the arctic and clear..

If you want to see case review.. go check out YouTube's ( itsmemorphious) guy.. He do very good case reviews... I got all my case information from there.. moreover his vids are enjoyable..

Moshi iPouch is kinda expensive for a cloth pouch right?

seems like Rebel have sagging issues with specific colours only?  hmm.gif

yeah. itsmemorphious did really good reviews on most of the cases. got my Colors after watching his review. smile.gif

i might be getting the Griffin Clarifi after CNY from the States since it's much cheaper over there (slightly over RM100). not like RM179 in our local Mac stores.

Ya expensive but worth it.. I use it to clean my LCD screen also.. One swipe only no more dust.. That youtube guy do reviews for almost every case you can get in the market.. I own the Moshi Concerti as well.. He reviewed it but he got a faulty one instead.. You watch his reviews on the Rebels and see.. His latest wan for the Rebel Serpent.. The black rubber smudge inwards wan... Griffin Clarifi is a very solid and nice case.. I used it as well.. but the shiny plastic back just scratches too easily.. you will know when u get one.. its kinda like an incase slider la.. Whoa lucky you la.. I got it at RM179.. from machines..

means the Rebel Serpent is not an improvement over the Rebel? still got sagging issue? top of my list now would be Incase Slider and Grffin Clarifi. but Incase is kinda overpriced to me. so in the end i chose Clarifi for the macro lens.  thumbup.gif yeah saw the glossy back surface easily scratched la but i guess it's still better than my current SwitchEasy Colors, keep trapping lint & dusts i have to clean almost everyday.  sweat.gif

bought the Clarifi on Amazon and asked a seller to ship it back to Malaysia. so it's cheaper. smile.gif

btw, does those hard cases like Clarifi attracts dusts often?  blink.gif

Nope they just change the spine texture only while use back the rubber for the rebel.. but local cant get Incase stuff.. Griffin Clarifi does not attract dust or lint but u have to be more cautious because griffin left the top and bottom expose more.. I haven tried SwitchEasy Colors before.. I think its just a silicon skin? I have to dig for the phone if i'm using that.. aisk.. My combo now is using the Griffin Clarifi + Moshi iPouch.. so dust does not go in to the case while it clean my iphone screen from finger prints.. btw, with all the ang pao money from CNY.. care to purchase a VaJa??

@CooLeRthings

I have SwitchEasy Neo White also.. yea it does give you the best protection that you need from dust and shock protection.. but it kills me cuz the I- frame gets dirty super fast for the white wan.. It seems SwitchEasy did a revision on the NEO.. The paper-like silicon skin is now form fitted to the iphone and the I-frame is now more resistance to dirtyness.. But the problem is how can we identify which is V1 and V2..

VaJa? think that's too premium for me dy la. if i'm working dy then might consider that.  tongue.gif

wow. double protection Clarifi & Moshi? you must took care of your baby a lot. haha.  biggrin.gif

yeah. Colors is just a silicone skin but it offers quite good protection actually. the only parts exposed is the silent button and camera hole. it's a good & affordable case just that it attracts dusts and lints easily. *sigh* i think if when i get my Clarifi i will use the rubber earphone & port protector from my Colors. so the only part left exposed will be the silent & volume buttons at the side.  thumbup.gif

Yalar tongue.gif .. every night I sure wipe my baby with a damp microfiber cloth and wipe it with my interior moshi material.. oh ya any place to get a compressed air can? got abit dust at the dock connector there... hmm.. now thinking of applying BodyguardZ/Invinsible Shield for my iPhone..
cuz sometimes i prefer to use it in naked but scare will scratch it.. So alternate days Naked iPhone 3G with BodyguardZ + Moshi iPouch or Naked iPhone 3G with BodyguardZ + Moshi Concerti for formal.. Presentation time can show off the app called "air mouse" for powerpoint presentation also.. hahaha... Aisk.. I confirm OCD for protecting my iPhone already la... rclxm9.gif rclxm9.gif
