iPhone protective cover ?
- Thread starter Snow-Munki
- Start date
Went to the Apple store last week with a mate who also has an iPhone and asked if we bought screen protectors would they fit them. They were busy but as there were two of us buying the guy agreed.
But there were 2 protectors in a pack for £10 which we split between us. Not bad £5 each + fitting
.The look and feel of the PS Anti-Glare is really good.
I'm using it with the incase case.
Did you palm it on the corners to get them to stick properly in the first place? After that be very gentle with it for a week or two as it does take a while to fully dry out and stick properly. Ive had no problems with my invisible sheild coming unstuck and ones been on my ipod about well over 2yrs. The iphone one was fairly hard to line up correctly though, luckily I had to do the wifes first so got the feel for it from that.
Yeah, I held it in place for nearly 15 minutes (proper mind over matter moment lol) then put it into the box which is molded to the shape of the phone.
The screen part is perfect. No dust or peeling as is the main part of the back. Just the little bits the fold around the side. all have now come off and collected crap
I'll have to take it off soon as it's looking dodgy.

awesome look and feel, and i got it for £15 with a free in car usb adapter/charger jobby off that auction place.
came from the US, but it took less than a week to arrive :O

I'm awaiting from the same seller. Good to hear it's all good.
Just fitted my bodyguardz, back and front.
The front went on ok, the back a different story with the corner curves not sticking down (after waiting for it to become sticky) and the little fiddly bits that cover the edges, being a right pain.
Now it is on I am not that happy with it so far. There are tiny bubbles/misting and ripples on the front. I hear the bubbles will go over 48 hours, though there is also slight rippling in parts, which I can feel with my fingers. They're not from being too heavy handed, smoothing out bubbles with my fingers or the squeegee. They're just there.
Also after using the screen naked since getting the phone, I am not liking the slight rubbery feel.
We'll see how it turns out.
I will keep you updated.
*A few hours in a lot of the bubbles/mist have gone, leaving the slight ripples in one corner and I can now see little dints? Don't know how else to describe them; like about a dozen of them all over the front. Once the screen light is on they become less noticible, though I can feel them, not good. The back has them as well which I am not too worried about.
Not too hopeful of these straightning themselves out over 48 hours, we shall see.
**30 hours in most of the mist has gone, still left with the small marks and yes the corners constantly bubbling up.
On a positive note, I do feel a lot more confident, generally just using my phone. It does feel soundly protected now, I don't have to place it down like I'm building a house of cards all the time. Really feel I can chuck it anywhere now and it will be fine . The bar of soap worry syndrone is gone too with the extra grip.

I went to the Apple store today and got a Power Support Air Jacket with the anti-glare screen cover. Much happier with this than the Switch easy Capsule Neo.
It doesn't offer full protection but as long as I can put it down without scratching the back of the phone I don't mind. Its really slim and light and doesn't really change the look of the phone.

Does it fit in the Apple charging dock ok with the iSkin on?
I don't have the dock but according to some forums I read it should fit fine.
I have a brand new black version on sale in the members market by the way.
i have had my SwichEasy Rebel Black since Sept 2008 so coming up to the 1 year mark with it on my Iphone 3G.
back is scratched but it has held up to daily abuse, the bottom bit near the home button has become a bit bendy but apart from that still in good condition, the screen saver is the one that came with it and been on fine.
and amazing i still have the power port cover thing aswell which i use all the day, surprised i ain't lost it yet!
overall i would defo recommend it!

after using my SwitchEasy Rebel case for solid 9 months now here are some pics:
its taken some abuse, been using it every single say, infact this phone hasn't seen a day without a case on it yet! as you can see the saggy bottom is quite bad, the iphone it self is in very good condition, only the bottom silver bit is slightly scratched cos of the saggy bit.
im due a change now though, so an incase slider is on it way

plus one for invisibleSHIELD
Is there anything out there which provides good protection, can be left on while the phone is used, but is quick and easy to remove?
Like the idea of a case for when (and if) I get an iPhone but it won't fit in a cradle with a case on it so would need to be able to slip it out of the case easily.
