QUOTE(MattJ @ Mar 10 2009, 02:44 PM) Griffin is quite pricey. Saw the Capdase silicon case at Lot 10 but didn't really like it. Alreday bought the Bodyguardz my 2nd set as my 1st one got dirty and I took it off. Also bought a cheap silicon casing at Lowyat abt RM12 which is cheap considering some other places selling at RM20 -RM25. I like it. Would probably bodyguardz my iphone and use it with that casing. for hard casing i think Griffin is quite reasonable as compared to brands like Incase and SwitchEasy, all well above RM100.

QUOTE(pelvin @ Mar 10 2009, 03:37 PM) good case.. but i suggest u to get bodyguard or IS as well.. somehow dirt can slip into that case and scratch ur phone... mine kena edi.. haih.. on the apple logo now can see hairline scratches.. bugger.. applied IS/BodyGuardz dy the iPhone still can fit SE Capsule Neo? i think Neo is a much better case than Rebel since the silicone skin is tight & soft type unlike Rebel which is hard and dusts can slipped in. anyway, i'm happy with my iClear now. best casing for me so far.

QUOTE(d_lai_309 @ Mar 10 2009, 04:06 PM) keep my vote till i get my neo...haha happy that you all got the case you like... i tried BG on iphone 3g n IS on ipod touch before and all end up in the bin.... so now gelaskin or switch easy case on my ipod touch n waiting for neo on my iphone 3g... my chrome bezel scratch so much now after using the sena ultra slim case on naked iphone. QUOTE(pelvin @ Mar 10 2009, 04:13 PM) haha seriously i really love the iClear... my fren say its nicer then the rebel...i think can put is with it cos my iClear is loose edi..so if put should be ngam ngam hou... the phone can move inside the case..kinda annoying sometimes...thats why kena scratches lo. Fraction between phone + casing + dust/sand = Scratches.. @d_lai_309: why in the end IS & BG end up in the bin? i thought of installing IS soon. @pelvin: so fast loose dy ar bro? take it off often? mine still kinda tight. if i install IS i gotta take it off and use it with my Golla case only dy. now using iClear + Golla. minimal dusts intrusion.

QUOTE(d_lai_309 @ Mar 10 2009, 04:58 PM) y in the bin? for IS, if u have it nicely install then you done a good job.....but after few days or weeks usage. the edge of the skin stick all the sweat from hand n also lint in yr pocket.... for BG,i cant have it nicely install at all and same issues as IS. Added on March 10, 2009, 4:59 pmi think gela skin is better and easier to install and it wont stick so much lint or my hand sweat at the edge QUOTE(d_lai_309 @ Mar 12 2009, 06:03 PM) ok i got my neo on my phone now.... the design is okish......didnt know it put so much weight n thickness to the phone and the I frame i have is abit loose.... so now my 3g dock n sena case can stay in the drawer while i use this neo just got myself a IS few days ago. yet to install it. will it be better if i stick it and use it with a pouch? less lint & dusts right? my iClear gonna be kept in drawer soon. btw, IS can fit SGP case with no problem right? just wondering.

QUOTE(d_lai_309 @ Mar 12 2009, 06:57 PM) i think when u apply yr IS, submerge it into the soap water then rinse abit then just apply so u still can adjust when is on the phone...of course not too wet. good luck when u apply it....looking forward for yr photo lol. just applied mine. and it looks so full of bubble. but hope it goes away in few days time though. iClear is going into the drawer for now.

QUOTE(boring @ Mar 15 2009, 05:03 PM) You can get it from Machines you sure its available at Machines? the last time i checked before getting my iClear. none of the Machines outlet carries that product. the only way to get one is through Amazon.com or from Singapore.

just removed my front part IS since some particles & dirt managed to stick to it when i was applying it. using an anti-glare/fingerprint one now & i'm so so so so so so happy & satisfied with it! less fingerprints, smudges & scratches! no more wipes needed as often as my old clear & IS SP! got it way below market price (less than RM15) and i think it's almost similar to Power Support's Anti-Glare SP which costs around RM60. definitely recommended to all iPhone 3G users. PS: would bring it in bulk order if anyone is interested.

QUOTE(PeeEl @ Mar 16 2009, 11:04 PM) You can count me in. But in the event that there is no 'quorum', where could I buy a couple even now since it is <RM15? TQ. i've just ordered a few (6 in total). item should arrive in 2 weeks time. will update once i've got it.  PS: price will be RM15 each. earn few bucks. haha.  kinda off-topic.

QUOTE(PeeEl @ Mar 16 2009, 11:21 PM) Sure, no prob, mate but can I just ask whether the opening for the Home button is a complete circle or with a section at the bottom part cut out? If it is the former, let me know once the 'stock' arrives. Thanks. it's a complete circle.

QUOTE(vui_msia @ Mar 17 2009, 01:22 AM) Switch Easy - Color any good? where can get it ? or capsule neo... Colors is one of the best silicone case out there and cheapest among the branded ones. used it as my first casing. go for Capsule Neo if you have the extra budget, better protection since it's a hard case. RM50 difference between Colors and Capsule Neo. can get it at any Machines stores or from our LYN's Garage Sales section.

QUOTE(vui_msia @ Mar 18 2009, 09:42 PM) thx. isnt it leather made will be better? soft and better protection. compare to hardcase, will get crack if drop etc QUOTE(lancerie @ Mar 18 2009, 10:19 PM) hmmmmm guys im loooking for incase slider too, but no luck, anyone any idea where i can get them? MV machine doesnt have it =( QUOTE(Zombiemonkey @ Mar 18 2009, 10:26 PM) positive demand for incase slider. Bulk order anyone??  @vui_msia: Colors is sufficient to protect against scratches & drop i guess. used that and Rebel before. Rebel can protect better since it's hard case. won't crack etc. should be the same for Capsule Neo too. @lancerie/Zombiemonkey: just checked out the price at Amazon.com, white one costs RM133 and black one costs RM152.

» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « QUOTE(Ndrew @ Mar 22 2009, 12:25 PM) 2G iPhone Casing: Griffin Wave Price: bought from ebay. USD12.99 plus around 7 bucks shipping, total USD20.14 Rating: 8.5/10 Pro: Nice design, nice to touch. Easy to take out of pocket compared to silicon case. Cons: The ends of the case doesn't meet exactly, there's a small gap in between but it's not a big issue. Comments: This case is not bad. The back of the case is not slippery even though it's plastic. Plus it's translucent so u can still see the apple logo behind... For me it doesn't add much bulk to the phone. The design is unique and the locking mechanism of the 2 pieces are firm and won't feel like it will fall apart easily... Came with a screen protector and a cleaning cloth. Reviews for this case online is also not bad overall. ilounge gave it an A- ranking... Pictures: [attachmentid=860811] [attachmentid=860819] [attachmentid=860822] [attachmentid=860825] wanted to get this for my 3G at first since it's the cheapest hard case (RM14X for 2, different colors @ Machines) but the issue with " The ends of the case doesn't meet exactly, there's a small gap in between" made me got iClear instead. it's a nice case though.
