Best Iphone 3g Protection which doesnt make your iPhone Bulky / Ugly !

Hi,
Im trying to find the perfect protection for my iphone... In general, i really dont like the big ugly colored hard cases, or the soft one either ( it makes ure iphone harder to slide out of your pockets ) ... not only do i find them ugly, but they add bulk to the iphone, which is already a bit big to my taste ive always had thin and slim phones before... Anyways i guess hard/soft cases main advantages is providing protection against falls...
Since i want my iphone to look like and iphone ( not like an ugly case ) i think what i need is a protection "skin" and after some research i think ive found the best one : http://www.zagg.com/invisibleshield/apple-iphone-3g-cases-screen-protectors-cove rs-skins-shields.php
the invisibleshield ... it covers the iphone completely and looks pretty efficient against scratches...
However i dont know if it makes the iphone touch screen less responsive, also i dont know if it needs to be replaced often or if it leaves stickyness or marks when removed. finely its a bit pricey , 25$ , but still within my budget...
Can anyone help me choose some protection for my iphone 3g
Thanks

hi thanks for the link,
however there is no clear all around winner...
If i could, id keep my iphone naked, but, i dont want to be paranoid all the time about how and where i put my iphone.
So to sum it up, ive got 5 choices :
Best Skin Ever skin
Cost : 8$
notes : Apparently this one is ok, it has front and back coverage. however i dont think i like the way the corners are being covered, it seems very obvious that there is a "skin" on and i am guessing that dirt can collect easely on the corners like that.

Power Support Crystal Film Set
Cost : 15$
Notes : Only has protection for the front ( screen ) , and it comes with 1 antiglare film and 1 normal "clearer" film. Apparently it is somewhat "hard" being compared to thin plexiglass material as opposed to the other skin material which are more like plastic skins...
http://www.powersupportusa.com/products/iphone_filmset.php
InvisibleShield
Cost: 25$
Notes : Apparently the back side is very hard to install, very often the corner will not be good and look ugly, also the texture of the material is not the clearest and it is also more "rubbery" adding grip, it has a somewhat noticable "orange fruit peel" skin texture under certain angle... on the other hand it is very very resistant and long lasting, does not leave any residu when removed. has lifetime waranty. It also has the best coverage apparently.

BodyGuardz
Cost : 25$
Notes : this one is apparently good, apparently it is clearer than the InvisibleShield and easier to install. It cover front and back. and comes with 1 replacement set.
http://www.bodyguardz.com/AppleiPhone_3Gp/nl-baip-0608.htm
FullBodyFilm
Cost : 17$
Notes : Apparently the clearest and smoothest and overall best according to iLounge. Their website is HORRIBLE however, it looks like a scam. It covers the whole iphone, you have 2 face piece, one is glare resistant and the other is normal.
http://www.fullbodyfilms.com/Home_Page.html
My Options :
Currently im thinking, maybe i should go with the fullskinfilm.
OR
Maybe i should get the back side from either BestSkinEver or from InvisibleShield ( you cannot order the back side only from the other brands ) and then buy the front from the power support crystal set.
What do you guys think ?

  • The Best Way to make your iPad battery last the longest!

    After checking many sources and also discussions here -- this is one article that pretty much sums up the best way to make your iPad battery last the longest!
    It basically comes down to JUST ONE THING (mainly) -- and that is simply REDUCING YOUR CHARGE CYCLE COUNT! And how do you do that? Well, very simply KEEP IT PLUGGED IN as much as possible. And then, doing what Apple says by doing just one full discharge - once a month.
    There are about 1000 charge cycles available for the iPad, at which point you should have 80% of the battery life left. SO ... Anything you do to slow down getting to that 1000 charge cycles, makes your iPad battery last longer. Keeping it plugged in "all the time" (or, as much as possible - since it is a portable object) slows down the process of getting to that "lessening of battery capacity". It's simply all about "charge cycles" - which then translates into "reduced battery capacity".
    Here's an article to pay close attention to:

    Hey Davin12,
    Yes. The apps are not pre-installed, but rather you are prompted to download them the first time you launch the App Store in iOS 7:

    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5913
    iPhoto, iMovie, Keynote, Pages, and Numbers are free on the App Store for qualifying iOS 7 compatible devices activated or purchased after September 1, 2013
    The first time you launch the App Store in iOS 7 on your qualifying new or factory refurbished iOS device, you will be offered iMovie, iPhoto, Keynote, Pages, and Numbers for free in addition to other free software from Apple. When you tap Download All and sign in with your Apple ID, the apps will be downloaded to your device and added to your store account. If you tap Not Now when you see the offer, you can go back to each of the apps in the store and download them one at a time for free.
    Thanks,

    It's very easy to accidentally create a reminder to call someone back. When someone calls you, there is a small button over the red "Decline" button labeled "Remind Me". If you tap, the call will be declined and a reminder to call back will be created. Easy enough to do if you're groggy and fumbling for the to make it shut up. If you weren't paying attention or were unaware of the feature, it might seem as if you had simply declined the call.

  • Is it possible to turn off the updates that make your iphone need to be activated again?

    Is it possible to turn off the updates that make your iphone need to be activated again? Because you need wifi in order to activate and sometimes I don't have wifi so my iphone becomes unusable untill I get wifi again.

    I'm sorry but it says 8.1.2 on my phone when I check for the info about the software.
    The issue I have is that on random moments it asks me to activate my phone ( I think after an update or some kind ) but sometimes I have no access to wifi to activate it so I was wondering if I could make that stop?
    I'm sorry for the strange explanation, english isn't my mothertongue

  • Can anyone suggest an app to download for SMS messaging for iphone 3G as the message application factory installed is pretty useless and doesnt keep your sent messages in a sent folder

    Can anyone suggest an app to download for SMS messaging for iphone 3G as the message application factory installed is pretty useless and doesnt keep your sent messages in a sent folde and has no folders unlike most messaging features on other phones.
    Many thanks

    Why do you need a Sent folder?  iOS's Messaging interface lays each conversation out like a chat or IM.  Personally, I find that much more convenient.

  • Best way to protect my MPB

    Which is the best way to protect my MacBook Pro Retina from sratches ?

    Buy a sleeve or case to put it in while it is not in use. Speck makes good products.
    Don't use snap-on cases or "skins" as these impede the heat dissipation necessary to keep your MacBook cool. They also tend to trap grit and dirt that will scratch the case anyway, except you won't know until you remove the case.

  • What's the best way to protect my code?

    What's the best way to protect my code from people reading it? Do obfuscators work well? If so, which one is really good?

    Obfuscation helps but is not a complete solution.
    Here is an idea to consider. Take the binaries(*.class) of the files you wish to protect and encrypt them. This would require you to write a small utility...not too hard. When you want to use these classes you decrypt them and dynamically load them. You could make a custom classloader to handle the details if you want to get fancy. The security of your classes would rest on the quality of the encryption you choose. A scheme such as this would be tough to reverse engineer using available tools.

  • What is the best way to protect it?

    I HATE getting scratches or any sort of cosmetical damage on my devices, I am getting my first MBP on Friday, and want to know what the best way to keep it like new is?
    It won't be leaving the house regularly for a while, but I do have a neoprene case which I think it will fit for travelling anyway.
    I have seen many people with cases on their Macs, I don't know what the proper name is for them, but they are like hard shells attached to the back of the lid, are these recommended? I have read about some heat issues with it.
    What is the best way to protect the screen? I don't ever touch it, so I don't think that will be a problem, but cleaning dust off etc.?
    Lastly, will the trackpad wear away? My laptop's trackpad has slightly faded from it being used a lot, are MBP's prone to this too? I will try to use a mouse as much as possible.
    Are there any other things I should know about? I read that the bottom can get scratched easily too? I would only use it on a flat surface, so something like my lap, so depending on how soft the metal is... It can't be that bad can it?
    Thanks!

    Wouldnt buy that, nope
    Hard cases protect the finish of your macbook, but they trap in heat, ....many here have spoken on same.
    A major part of a macbook pro, especially a RETINA PRO is dissipating heat from the alloy case, which this case prevents from happening.
    Yes, youre stopping all the scratch,.....and likewise keeping the Macbook from dissipating a lot of heat.
