i bought this today: http://theappleblog.com/2009/01/13/power-s...-for-iphone-3g/
price: Rm 128. looks good. its thin, almost weightless, came with one anti glare and one clear plastic screen protector. the material is plastic, but it has a rubbery feel to it for grip. and it's only 1mm thick. |

QUOTE(Shoki @ Mar 22 2009, 11:58 PM) From your link, they mentioned : i read that too. but i think it depends on how you use it. 1. Air Jacket had left numerous scratches along the sides of the chrome bezel. And they were not light nicks; the scratches were deep and numerous enough that only a thorough buffing with Brasso could remove. 2. Also, the rubberized finish proved to be quite susceptible to be scratched off, and is simply a coating over what is really a clear Air Jacket. After only five days, the rubberized finish had chipped off at all four corners of the Air Jacket. And most importantly, For a $34.95 product, the build quality of the Air Jacket is simply disappointing. Do post the outcome of your case after a week or two to see if it's really disappointing.  someone i know is using the same case for a month now and exprience no such problem. i have no idea how the reviewer manage to make so much damage in 5 days. |

Do post the outcome of your case after a week or two to see if it's really disappointing. so far mine has only mild scratches, which is normal with everyday use, but nothing to indicate that the layer of black paint is coming off. i removed the case to clean it, no scratches along the chrome bezel too. a little bit more dust can be seen trapped around the volume and vibrate levers though, but nothing a quick wipe. the case served me well so far, it's thin, doesnt add weight and the non glare screen protector is really nice. |
