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  brows.gif ), suitable for those that prefer their Iphone not that bulky

My missus took my Rebel Skeleton away after she discared her cheapo crystal case for her iphone 3G. Luckily I still have Bodyguardz on and use with my Marware slip in pouch. IMO a naked iphone 3G still feels better.

finally after a super long procrastination period, here's my review of the rebel artic case.

@david, u should be thinking "finally eh?" tongue.gif

3G iPhone Casing : Switcheasy Rebel Artic
Price: RM 119 when i first bought, not sure about the pricing
Rating: initially it was 9/10, but over time 9/10 had dropped to the level of 5/10
Pro: Low profile, protects the whole phone
Cons: Dust might be trapped often in the internals of the casing
Comments: It was damn good at the starting but somehow its like the palm oil price, my impressions just keep dropping and dropping until the level of no return.

I won't be doing an extensive review like the first impressions and what not but this is focusing mainly on how much the casing had endured for the phone and not the phone itself tongue.gif
For first impressions review, you can just head over to youtube or ilounge just for the review.

Just to drive my point home, i will just let the pictures do the talking all these are taken half an hour ago, unedited and resized. Results of daily usage starting from like october till now.
I would like to bet, nobody is gonna support the rebel after looking at the pics biggrin.gif

first up,

scratches and scuff marks all over the place after months of usage along with the ever enduring watermarks inside the casing too.

look at all the grimes and vertical scuff marks made by opening the phone countless of times

user posted image
volume button cover had already started to rip itself off from the silicone.

user posted image
and lastly the infamous sag-of-the-year

so WIR this casing to everyone? YES and NO, if you're a perfectionist this thing wont last in your inventory, if you just need something to protect the phone this is it but bear in mind u will feel what i feel sooner or later.

it's time for me to retire this casing as well, targetting the griffin iclear and i'm hoping teikwing can give us a good review after a month long usage period tongue.gif

yeah i already got a Golla pouch when i'm using my old phone. it's kinda torn dy so i've asked for 1 to 1 exchange since it's covered under lifetime warranty. thumbup.gif get to choose another design which is similar priced with my old one. though a bit bigger, my i3G with iClear struggles to fit into the pouch. sweat.gif i couldn't find something looking as cool as g3n0c|d3's one. sad.gif

Moshi iPouch is way over my budget for a pouch. haven't got my mirror SP yet. lazy to drive so far till KLCC. i'm so Cheras. maybe i'll drop by when i go shopping or something. i'm not using any SP on my phone now. biggrin.gif

yeah. i think i heard iPhone's screen is mineral glass not so easily scratched right? icon_question.gif

i've only been to the shop which i bought my Golla previously but unfortunately they don't carry the model you've shown. so i gotta resort to my current one. don't have a digicam to take the photos.
