This is the best iPhone 4 case on the market right now, solid side and back protection and it's about the only case around that doesn't interfere with screen protectors just clips over the top and covers the edges.
A nice review. My only problem was that the poster opened the issue of how loose the phone was in the back piece, but didn't specifically address whether that looseness was gone after putting on the front/top frame.
For my old 3GS, I had a Griffin Chilewich, and it was the best case I've ever had. Just fantastic. I got the Griffin Reveal Etch a few days ago and ... it sucks! Sloppy, loose rubber everywhere. Somehow, I'm still thinking of Griffin though...
this is the best Iphone4 case, I dropped my Iphone 4 from about 1 metre high, and the phone didnt suffer any damage, much better than all the Silicone and TPU cases out there.
@alexeyevgeny < ~~~ The back of the case, where to your phone lays on, is a soft material which protects your back glass. The front is a trim, so i recommend a screen protector to go with this set-up.
I'm not sure on impact what kind of damage your phone will sustain, it will vary on hieght of the drop and angle on which it falls on. I don't have a spare phone to test it and could not tell you. I'm sure it being a hard shell and all, it will protect better than a silicone. Good luck!
@edog5723 <~~ I don't see why it shouldn't, if you look at the vid you'll see that the phone just drops into the back nothing else. The front is a snap trim that goes from from ontop. I have the powersupport screen protector on mine with no issues..
@edog5723 dont get the zagg.. or if you already get it, get an expert to install it. cause the zagg is basically like a case. its really fat so prob wont work with most cases. lasts a long time but you gotta install it correctly. and its very very hard to do
@fiery77 <~~ You won't be dissapointed. So far the case has held up nicely and is my favorite. It's Carbon fiber backing, so it slides in out of pocket easily. I don't have anything negative to say, maybe price?
It docks on all my accessories which is a big plus and looks very elegant when brought out.. Good luck!
@fiery77 <~~~ It might be a smudge thicker than the Apple bumper, but if you want the added protection, it's a compromise. If you go to Griffin Website posted above, they have a very similar looking case called the Reveal Etch. It's a one piece ultra-thin polycarbonate case, from the pics you'll probably lose some protection on the front of the phone especially the corners. Good luck! Post back
i decided the sides of the gran form elan graphite is better than reveal etch because several reviews say the alignment is off on the reveal and that would def drive me crazy!!
thank u again for the help in making my choice =]
@fiery77 <~~ Thanks for the feed back, i really don't do reviews since i don't think i'm really good at it, but seeing no one had anything on this case on here, i felt i should contribute what i could to this community..
Nice case, Just fitted it to my iphone4, No problems so far and it looks great, Thanks for doing the review, Good work!

hey blanco can the phone fit snuggly with power support back AND front?

So annoying. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out how to put on the case. Why would you need a manual.

Thanks for review.
Does this case scratch iphone 4?
And what about drop protection? How much impact-resistant top plastic rim?
Sorry for my english.
