Incase Snap Case vs Belkin Shield Micra

So I just downloaded the free case app and I'm having a hard time deciding between these two cases. They both look so sexy and much better than the $9 rubbery clear bumper I got from eBay (still good though). So, some questions I'd like answered please.
-- Are these both hard plastic and not rubbery gel?
-- Are the sleep and volume buttons covered or exposed?
-- Will I have any trouble plugging in my charger, headphones, or my car plug (same plug as headphones but has a thicker rubber around it)
-- Which one do you prefer based on your experience or just the looks of them?
-- Anything else I should know about?
Thanks for taking the time to answer these!

I wrap every apple product in Zagg's invisible shield the day I get it! This time I've held off but plan on skinning it soon. I tried to put an older nano in a hard case that I found but the invisishield made it too thick to fit in the case. I wonder if that would happen with either of the aforementioned cases.
I also just bought a white color wrap for my iPhone 4 (http://www.icolorwrap.com/colors.html)
I wanted to get a clear case so that I can see the white color. I think i'll put the color strip over top of the invisible shield after I get it. Does anybody have any suggestions on any of this?

    Is this item compaible with the new iPhone 4S?

    Hi jayrap, a big YES. I just bought a CLEAR Incase Snap Case for my iPhone 4s, yesterday afternoon at my nearest Apple store. The "clear" ones were going fast. What "color" are you getting?

  • Incase Snap Case for VERIZON iPhone?

    My iPhone is going to be delivered hopefully tomorrow and i dont want to use it much without a case. Since the iPhone is such a beatiful phone i dont want to cover it up with bulky and colorful cases. 
    The Incase snap case for verizon is gonna be out soon in black frost but i want the clear one.
    Will the att version fit verizon?
    When will incase make the clear one for verizon if not?
    What about the Pinlo Slice 3 case, will that fit?
    (Do you know of a case similar to these clear and thin which fit the verizon iPhone?)
    Thanks!

  • Incase slider case with a screen protector....

    I was wondering if anyone has the Incase Slider case yet...and if so, is anyone using a screen protector with it? If so...which one are you using and do you have any issues with getting the case on with a screen protector on? The reason I'm asking is because I was using the ifrogz luxe case and I could not find a screen protector that I could get the case on without the screen protector coming back up at the edges. I now have the Incase Slider case and before I waste anymore money trying to get another screen protector, I'd like to find one that works without coming up at the edges. Anyone have any recommendations on what is working for them? Thanks in advance!

    i just recently bought the incase slider since they are new to market for the iPhone 4. when i bought the incase slider from best buy i also purchased the zagg invisible shield and i asked if they could install it for me cuz im bad at doing those kind of things and the guy from best buy mobile said that he would be more than happy to install it. It costs another $8 for them to install it for you (generally takes 15-20 min to install but they do a really good job). By the time he finished i had to wait a day for the invisible shield to fully dry but once it was i slid the incase slider case on my iPhone 4 and it fit perfectly without the screen protector coming up.

  • InCase rubber case review

    Just picked up a black InCase from the Apple store today (TN563LL/A).
    I am very pleased with it. I thought that since it was rubber it would be kinda sticky feeling (perhaps I'm comparing it with the silicone ones) and grab lint like no tomorrow. It's not bad on the lint thing - and it's been laying on my fuzzy blanket. It seems to remove any lint with a wipe with a lint-free cloth.
    I'm especially pleased with the fit. It has holes for the headphone jack, the USB connector (won't fit in a dock without being removed), the speaker and mic, camera, and the silence slider, but the volume and on/off/sleep buttons are covered. I prefer the fact it doesn't try to cover the glass at all. It doesn't interfere with use at all, or any of the sensors. I'm much less worried about the glass than the chrome and the backing at this point (from the stress tests we've seen), and this 1mm or so of lift should help if it lands face down so it doesn't hit grit on the ground (though I splatted mine on the garage floor the other day with no damage).
    I'm testing the heat retention right now. I didn't have any problems with music, so I'm running a movie now.
    It will definitely keep it from sliding, and other than being harder to slide in and out it still fits in the side cell phone bag on my purse. Hopefully if I accidentally drop it on the corner it will take some of the shock, too.
    No belt clip, but that's not the way I function.
    My two cents. I'm still waiting for what Vaja has to come out with that's not magnetic, and I'm interested in possibly trying Lajo's Exo L with swivel clip so it acts both as a horizontal and vertical stand, but for now this is just about perfect for me.
    My two cents,
    Aym

    I've noticed the stretching as well. If you do buy this case (and frankly, it's a fine case) then leave the iPhone in. I removed mine frequently for cleaning and the rubber has stretched.
    I was looking at the Speck ToughSkin, but it looks a little too...knobby. I just ordered the iSkin Revo for the iPhone, which looks to have everything I want in a case except for a belt clip. I currently use the Contour iSee for the iPhone and I'd like to see what the Showcase for the iPhone will be like. I like clip-able cases as my phone is on vibrate most of the time and I often miss alerts/calls when it's in my pocket, but I also worry about knocking it off my hip somehow, or walking around with it out for all to see, screaming "Hey I'm a $500 phone, why not steal me?"
    Is it just me or the iPhone causing people to seemingly collect cases? I've gone through three including the Crystal Jacket Set I returned.

  • INCASE Slider Case - 3GS (and 3G)

    Just got this matte black slider case, that I like because it covers all of the shiny bits on my black 3GS iPhone. Has anyone used this case before and have an opinion on its durability? It has a very snug fit, but looks like it may be easy to scratch the finish. Otherwise, it seems pretty decent.

    While I don't specifically recommend any product as I no longer have my 3GS, this is the ONLY (emphasis on ONLY) case that I used and found comfortable, chic, and durable enough to outlast my phone. I dropped my phone from about 5' on solid concrete and the case cracked before my phone was damaged...
    INCase makes a good product.

  • Case Question - Inivisible Shield?

    I was curious as to peoples response to the Invisible Shield brand protection for iPods. I just heard of it, and am a little skeptical...
    What is the condition of the iPod after you remove the product?
    Do the edges of the "shield" really stay stuck, or do the peel up and look funky and dirty?
    Or if anyone has any other recommendation for a similar, full body protector.
    (I like something that would allow the actual iPod to be shown. I don't like the leather and hard shell cases much...)

    I just took one off of my 5G iPod after about a year because it was finally starting to show some wear and tear. The iPod itself looked like as if had it just came out of the box after the film was removed. No residue etc.
    I can't imagine any scenario of how your iPod could look dirty and scratched up after removing it unless you failed to follow the instructions to clean it thoroughly before applying the material.
    I use them on my cellphone, camera LCD's etc. Been very happy with them.
    Here is another opinion that makes the same "scratch free" claims.

  • Free case issue - very limited info of cases :(

    Very limited info/spec/images are available for various cases for iPhone 4. It is pathetic that companies don't bother to publish more info when they are reaping millions by selling their cases. It wouldn't take more than an hour to publish more info online. Unhappy with this lethargic behaviour.
    I guess Apple should pressurize some of these companies.
    If any one can give info/inside story/pics/review about following, it would be great!!
    1 Incase smoke & clear - Does smoke have plastic material or rubber? What about scratches?
    2 belkin shield micra (except that single image which keeps floating everywhere)
    3 Griffin motif diamond/smoke - has anyone used it?
    Pixelskin HD has very good videos on youtube and hence so many people might have opted for it.

    The MimeMessage constructor you're using needs to copy the entire message from the server.  It uses the Message.writeTo method, writing the message content into a pipe that is read by the constructor.  It was a bug in previous releases that the writeTo method wasn't fetching the data in chunks, as it does in other cases.  Setting partialfetch=false will revert to the old behavior for writeTo, and for all other accesses of the message content.
    It looks like both 1.4.4 and 1.5.1 are fetching the message content using a single FETCH command when you set partialfetch=false, according to your message.  If they're both sending the same commands to the server, I can't explain why it would be fast in one case and slow in the other.
    I did similar testing using my Exchange 2010 server.  Fetching a similar size message took less than 20 seconds.  Setting partialfetch=false brought it down to less than 5 seconds.  Something's clearly wrong in your environment, but I don't know what.
    Finally, I'm sure you understand that you only need to use that MimeMessage copy constructor in special circumstances, and you should probably avoid using it unless it's absolutely necessary.  Even in the best case it's wasting time and memory.

  • Case program, what case are you getting?

    Iv ordered the Belkin Shield Micra. Why i want that case, because iv also ordered a gelaskin to go on the back of the iphone and i wanted a clear case so i can see the gelaskin. I did want the speck fitted but would like another colour other than black.
    Anyone else ordered a case via the case program app?

    I read reviews and none of the cases seemed to be that great that apple is offering. I hear good things about the otterbox defender, but from what i understand it makes the phone very bulky. The otterbox commuter is available next week, does anyone have any experience with this, in the 3g(s) version?

  • No Apple Bumper available under the Case Program in the UK anymore?

    Hi,
    I purchased the iPhone 4 on 22nd Sept on the Apple UK site and just received it yesterday. So far so good. I've managed to load the Case Program app onto my iPhone 4 and was looking at the cases available and was surprised not to see the official Apple bumper not in the list. I know Apple state that case selection and availablility is subject to change, but I thought maybe Apple will still continue to offer the official bumper regardless, providing you are willing to wait a very long time for them to ship it?
    Would appreciate any help.
    Thanks

    But that doesn't explain why I am available to choose other cases in the case program app such as the Incase Snap case, Griffin Motif and about 7 others. Also, before placing an order online, I confirmed with an Apple representative online that I would be eligible for the case program, because they use the date that the order was placed (so the repesentative says).
    Thanks

  • Which case WON'T peel off my GhostArmor screen protector!?

    I know there's a lot of discussion about this already, but I was wondering if anyone has advice on which free case to go with that hopefully will NOT peel off the corners of my Ghost Armor full body protector. I have tried NUMEROUS silicone cases so far, off-brands i can't remember, but from Best Buy. They all have peeled the corners off my front & back protectors!!! SO annoying since the Ghost Armor cost me about $35. I can easily replace each side for only $5 but I want to do that after I finally settle on a case. I've been going without a case, just the Ghost Armor, and have fallen in love with the sleekness of it.
    HOWEVER i did drop my phone already and actually chipped the corner a little. Not a biggie, i'm prone to doing that kind of stuff.
    I like the look of the Griffin Motif Diamonds/Smoke. I previously owned a case like this i bought from Apple in June for my 3Gs, and it's edges were so smooth, not sharp, that my screen protector never peeled. My old diamond case had smaller diamonds so it "sparkled" more, not like these big huge obvious diamonds. Leaning toward this one since I liked my old one so much, but it wasn't a Griffin. I have bought a pink silicone diamond case from best buy, and it was soooo hard and it peeled the edges right back. Also left an indent/impression of the diamond designs on the back protector. eeew.
    Also looking at the bumper, but bummed because it's only in black - then i'd have a super plain black phone. However, all i seem to need is something rubber around the edges when i drop it! LOL
    The Speck fabric/hard case is cool, but it looks a little too bulky.
    The Incase snap cases are neat looking also- and i'm thinking the snap design would be easier on protectors....?? But they're just a tad boring.
    Decisions, decisions....Any advice or thoughts are much appreciated!

    I didn't like the anti-glare one I bought from ebay, took the beauty from the screen. So I had ZAGG put on, at best buy. I was told to wait 24 hrs before putting the gel case back on and so I did... I put it back on perfectly and guess what? Within like 10 mins the corners started to get bubbles. I was so mad! Ugh so I returned it and got a refund but minus the $7.99 best buy charges to put on the protector. I was ripped off and lied to! I would like to know also which screen protector will stand a case on? I never had problems with the regular clear ones that r like a sticker.. I just wanted extra protection for my iphone 4.

  • Ifrogz case and screen protector

    I had an ifrogz case on my 3G and really liked it. Bought one for my 4 but, even with ifrogz own screen protector, when I put the case on after installing the protector, the edges of the protector lift up. Seems like the only way to fix this is to trim the protector. You would think that protectors from the same company as the case wouldn't have this problem. Didn't mean for this to turn into a rant; I guess I'd like to know if anyone else has had this problem and might have a solution to it...

    iFrogz is evidently aware their case causes problems with screen protectors. The felt inside the case is too think and the result is what you have noted. I also have an iFrogz case, but I received my free Apple case yesterday. It's the Incase Snap case and I REALLY like it. It provides the protection I need, and it will permit the installation of a full screen protector without fear the edges will bubble up.

  • Best case for ipad 2

    I am looking for something to cover the front and the back? Is otterbox the best? Is there a case that fits the smart covers?

    it depends what you are looking for. Either very robust in which case otter box could be a good choice, but if you want a case to prevent scratchs from the back while the smart cover covers the front you could get something like
