yeah i know but i thought the saggy issue only exist on specific colors of Rebel but guess i was wrong. anyway, won't Neo's thin silicone skin seems vulnerable to tear apart when fixing it on iPhone? it seems to be so fragile.

the 2nd gen of neo they supplied not 1 but 2 thin silicone so if u terkoyak u still have the other one.

yea but seeing itsmemorphius on YouTube torn his silicone skin abit makes me kinda afraid to try it on my own. plus, i wanted something less complicated to install and different than my ex-Rebel. planning to get Clarifi but its back part has a glossy area so i guess it would be easily scratch and black looks kinda dull to me. although the macro lens is really really tempting.

got myself a Griffin iClear from Machines @ RM98 today. currently my favorite casing. the front crystal sides protects the chrome bezel but it's transparent so the chrome can be seen, looks kinda classy. plus the back part is milky half-transparent so the Apple logo still can be seen, and it's somewhat scratch-proof. really satisfied with it.

but i agree that Neo and Rebel offers the best shock protection still. hopefully my iClear won't break into two pieces upon dropping on the ground. the back part is kinda hard and thick actually.


by the way, i have invested in 3 cases (Colors, Rebel, iClear) in less than 2 months after getting my iPhone. kinda broke.

p/s : from my observation and visits, i think Machines have the most selection for iPhone cases. been to Midvalley's, Sunway's and Lot 10's.

3G iPhone Casing: Griffin iClear

Price: RM98 @ Machines

Package includes: iClear Case, 1 x Screen Protector, Microfiber Cloth

Rating: 9.5/10

Pros:
Solid crystal frame protecting chrome bezel, transparent.
Tough hard back case, milky semi-transparent, showing Apple's logo.
Maintain iPhone's sleek & slim profile, not bulky.

Cons:
Dusts tend to stick to inside of crystal frame.
No protection for volume buttons, sleep on/off button and charging port.


Comments: IMO, it looks classy. Offers good protection and for the kind of protection it offers, the price is quite reasonable.

@Hanxz

Can you do a review and rating on your iPhone case so i can post em on first post.

Thanks mate.

Cheers

@teikwing

hey bro.. how does the Griffin iClear feels like?? is it thinner and not so bulky compare to the rebel?? i plan to get another case which is not so bulky la.. haha was aiming the SGP or Cozip.. Very thin but no chrome protection..

2G iPhone Casing: Cozip
Price: RM80 + free screen protector
Rating: 8/10
Pro: Nice rubberish material gives you a good feel and grip, Does not make the phone bulky
Cons: Less protection for the top part of the phone
Comments: It looks good and it does not cover the apple logo at the back (people can know you are using Iphone ), suitable for those that prefer their Iphone not that bulky

@=Hanxz=
bro..that's a very saggy Rebel you had there! no wonder you're complaining. hehe.

my Tiger isn't that bad. just a slight sag. will do a feedback on the iClear after some time. so far i'm really satisfied with it.


@pelvin
i think it's as thick or slightly thicker than Cozip. not sure about SGP. and it's definitely less bulky than Rebel. nice to hold (coz it's slimmer) and the back part is not prone to scratches so i can just leave it on any surface. plus the Apple logo is visible.

planning to get SGP or Cozip too since they're kinda slim but i need something which can protect the chrome bezel as well.

i really like cozip or sgp.. especially the carbon fibre sgp case... but no shock proof and its proven when u drop it on the floor, ur phone will come out of that case and hit the ground.. so better a wear BRA aka bodyguard 1st before u use those case.. haha

anyway i heard the iClear got cheaper and more expensive version that comes with arm band rite?? the RM98 come with the arm band?? thanks

applied Bodyguardz dy the Cozip/SGP still can fit?

the RM98 doesn't comes with armband. the one that comes with it cost around RM148 or cheaper, forgot dy. or you can consider Grffin Nu Form case, it's something like Incase Slider. it's around RM123.

yeah.. can fit...saw some ppl review on youtube applied bodyguard and still can fit their iphone into cozip/sgp case...

haha i think i buy moshi pouch and use the phone naked la.. will consider the iClear... thanks for review...hehe

i see. yeah Moshi is a good choice too but it's like abit expensive for me. hehe. no probs bro.

About the saggy issues and white neo getting dirty I mailed zlotan and he agreed to give me a replacement of the outer case for my serpent and a black I frame for replacement. I send them pictures as proof of defect and purchase. Maybe you can try this too. They mailed me the item a week ago with tracking number using USPS it yet to reach me coz they send by slow post but its FREE of charge ^^ so maybe you can try mate

bro u hv BG or IS on ur i3g?

i have the same kind of problem.... and as worse as =hanxz=

bro... CURSE U!!!! hahaha u poison me with ur iClear Case... in the end.. i bought it instead... its a good case thou..but somehow the stupid dust can squeeze trough the case and stick on the back of the phone...annoying thou for the black iPhone cos need to clean it... but should be ok for the white... hehe and i wish my phone was white now..

This post has been edited by pelvin: Feb 6 2009, 11:09 AM

is the incase slider available in Malaysia?

@pelvin
you have got it? sorry for poisoning you.

surprisingly mine the dusts doesn't stick to the back of the phone since there's hardly any gap between the phone and the case for the back part. dusts and small particles just can be seen around the chrome bezel area. but minimal. i only clean it once awhile when i can't stand the dirt. afraid that frequent dismantling of the case will cause it to be loose.

@juDas_x
nope. i'm looking for that too previously. you might wanna get it from Amazon, eBay or Singapore.
