@jackhammer84:
haha. well, i think it's kinda rare lah. unless you keep take 'em off and put it on back. seems getting the cheapo RM10-15 ones has its logic. u see, even the thieves saw it rite, they would be reluctant to break-in. (cheapo ones = not GPS device)

@setoyo:
ehh didn't realize that. do check it out and inform us here yea. thanks in advance!

@jfoong:
i've previously used IS and currently has been on SGP shield for a month. i can say i'm pretty satisfied with it. just love the crystal clear screen protector. original feel? it will add some grip to the phone.

SGP Ultra Thin won't fit your phone with any sort of bodyshield (IS, BG, SGP shield). but it's possible with Rebel.

i guess that's the issue with your phone rather than the Clarifi case? it's still kinda weird though.

@cksia:

this issue is a subjective one and has been discussed previously. trend is non-existent for cases. it's all about your own preference.

either you:

1. use it nakedly and protects it with just a cloth pouch. no bulk but zero protection.
1. apply a skin which doesn't add any bulk, protects from scratches but not drops. (or use it with a pouch)
2. get a hard case (Griffin Clarifi, iClear, SE Rebel, CapsuleNeo), which adds bulk but protects the whole phone from scratches and drops.
3. get a silicone case. less bulk, protects from scratches but not major drops.
4. resort to stick-to-the-back cases (SGP Ultra Thin etc.), minimum bulk, protects the back but not the chrome bezel against dents/scratches.

and once you have a skin on, the phone will most likely not able to fit into most cases. (except pouch and silicone cases)

so seriously, there's no such thing as a perfect case. that's why there are varieties of cases in the market, for you to choose or pair them.

just get a case which u think its the best and suit your budget, usage/the way you handle your phone. period.

@chingwooi:

i think this issue is supposed to be discussed over here.

anyway, there's currently hardly any local case being reported over that issue. warranty does cover heat crack issue as it's definitely a non self-inflicted defect.

@tink:
do they have cases from brands like Incase? the PowerJolt @ RM79 is tempting! too bad i'm not in KL.

@tink:
haha. it's okay. just called up my proxy. she will be in KLCC tomorrow!

gosh, seems like finally Malaysia is gonna have plenty of iPhone accessories officially.

@orly?

PowerSupport Air Jacket is quite a good case IMO. cases are suppose to protect your phone. coolness comes second.

however, if you decide to switch to either Rebel Serpent or CapsuleNeo, i would suggest Capsule Neo. not too sure if the current batch of Rebel has it but Rebel used to face the bottom saggy issue. sold mine off just after a month of usage.

@orly:
all of the cases collect dusts over some period of usage. that's absolutely normal. unless you're paranoid about seeing dusts sticking to your precious!

i've used up almost half the bottle of the solution. bubbles and imperfections went off in less than 24 hours.

@johnliew:
err isn't it some plasticky material rather than silicone? anyway, particles and dusts do tend to slip in the lil gap between the phone and the case and thus causing scratches to the chrome bezel. had similar experience with my ol' Rebel Tiger.

@jfoong:
i don't think i've seen SGP shield sold elsewhere except here in LYN. a fellow seller do offer installation service but he's located in KL.

@jfoong:
here you go:

you're welcome.

@bonzaimy:
setting the brightness to full might help. that's the only gripe about mirror SPs.

@Mr. Kong:
i don't think any authorised Apple resellers provide installation services. your best bet is looking for those sellers in LYN Garage Sales. use the search button.

it's similar to the old Capdase Soft Jacket. just that it's milky/part-transparent.

@janson_kraniaz:

tried sticking 'em off by using cellotape. might and might not be effective. best of luck.

err silicone cases should provide you a sufficient grip. you should try using the phone without any case, it's much more 'sillpery'.

frankly, i'm kinda disappointed with SP that SwitchEasy bundle with, they get scratched easily.

there are 2 layers covering the SP. one is the sticking to screen side while another outer layer is to protect the SP. did you remove the outer layer?

@chizzu:
no probs. try to stick it ASAP next time.

@sengwee1988:
it's much easier to apply if you spray lotsa application solution to the shield & your phone. bubbles should go away within 48 hours (less than a day in my case).

err it's shouldn't turn yellowish so soon. applied my nearly a month ago and it still does not show any yellowish effect.

once it's wet, it's much easier to move the shield around and adjust right? it isn't that hard.

err maybe sweat is the culprit. is it yellowish or brownish? turned yellowish in mere few days is kinda serious.
