iphone help. Covers, color?

So I will be getting an iphone tomorrow or wed. I was going to today but ran into trouble. I was curious what you guys think are the best cases. I dont really want it on my hip, just something that will protect it. Rubber is nice but if its leather its gotta be nice as well. Whats the best plastic to use to protect the screen and WONT give you those bubbles.

So what do you guys like? Suggestions? Where to buy?

Black or White? Im leaning toward black. White is for metros.


Thanks!!!

 

Check out the Otterbox line of cases for the iphone...best case ever....

When i had an iphone, i bought one of their waterproof cases....

It definitely worked

 

if you get white the tiny hairline cracks will be less noticeable!

 

Sweet. I will look right now. I cant sleep

 

Thats super nice. But $50!!! Ouch

 

Thats what I was thinking, but Im getting a cover anyway. Ahhh I hate decisions like this.

 

i paid $30 a while back...

ebay is your friend.... im sure you could get one for a lot less on there......

be sure to use the live.com 8% off too...

 

for sure

thanks. I saw some decent ones in ATT but I wish I could try it on first.

 

I definitely agree that the silicone/rubber cases stretch out way too fast. I purchased a 3g When it first came out and got a silicone case for it which lasted me a month before it looked like a vagina after Im through with it. I ended up getting a Speck Case (http://www.speckproducts.com/products/candyshell/iphone-3g-iphone-3gs/162) which lasted me all through my Original 3G Ownership and I have now began using it on my new 3G. Its really tough and can definitely handle the drops. Ive dropped my iPhone quite a few times with no damage because of the protection this case has provided my phone.

 

Nice. I will give it a try. Is the warranty free or does it cost?

 

ahhh yes. I saw this at the store and was debating it.

 

Incase slider with a screen protecter, that's what I have and I love it. I drop my phone all the time and no damage at all.

Sounds sketchy. Must be a cool worker or something. Is your sister hot?

 

I have this case along with a few of my friends. I highly recommend it. I don't use the clip though.

For a screen protector I use this http://store.apple.com/us/product/TS504LL/A?fnode=MTY1NDA0NA&mco=Nzk2MzQ5NA

 

Thanks for all the help. I will let you know what I get.

 

Good cases are the Incase Slider series or any from that Apple store that are 2-piece. Meaning there is a rubber skin that goes around your phone and a plastic outter shell to hold the case together. The Otter Box is cool, but it looks like ass, and causes echoes because of the paper filter on the bottom that covers the microphone. You might as well carry around a BB 7900 because that's what it looks like.

People at Apple usually take care of you. But, if you are looking to cover accidental damages, go to Best Buy and get your iPhone there along with there Geek Squad Black Tie Protection.

 

I like this speck brand rubber case I have. Works real well and takes a beating. I cant tell you how many times I have dropped it, not a scratch. The best luck that I have had with clear screen protectors is the ones that apple sells. I have tried others but they all peel and bubble too quick. Good luck.

 

Incase Slider FTW!

I have had mine for over a year and have dropped it several times, no damage.

Just dont get the matte black color. It flakes off after a few months and becomes glossy.

 

I've got a slider case (not incase though) and I'd recommend the Invisible Shield for the touchscreen. It's awesome.
