I have just received the case that Apple gives away when I buy an iPhone 4. Specifically, the model that I chose is Incase Snap Case Clear; a transparent hard case that perfectly covers the phone, protects it and reveals its design. I chose this one because the Apple Bumper did not convince me and because before I had a very similar one on my iPhone 3G.
I do not regret, it is very fine, you hardly notice that you are wearing it and shows the design of the new iPhone, which for my taste, is the most beautiful of all there have been.
It has a black border around the camera so that it does not create reflections with the Flash Good idea!
You have photos of the details after the jump.
Great for me, I also received the same one as you today and I agree 100% with you, it is very good, it shows good quality !! and above it comes with the support to put the iPhone lying down which I think is a good detail ... Again a 10 for the Apple service
Yes, it has also reached me today. I have asked for the same one because I do not see the bumper as protection. And it also comes with the vertical-horizontal support is not a big deal but it is already more than the bumper.
Greetings and what pleases you!!!
Ole!
I think it came to me today too, because I received a note from the postman saying that he had passed through here and I was working (he did not put the job in the note, come on).
Tomorrow I stop by the post office to see if it was that or not (the letter of the postman in my area is something between elvish and Arab ...)
By the way, I have chosen the same one as you and I have a question: What is the little thing that you see in the photos?
Where can I order the case for my iPhone 4? free
Through an app in the app store called case program….
I believe that the iPhone 4 is the most rigid of all and does not need a special cover, I believe that with normal use it will not have great damage.
I bet on the bumper, I'm a fan haha
Well, I am waiting for the same cover, I hope I am not late.
Yesterday I received the same case as you, and I am very happy with the choice, I think it is the most successful and once put much more, it does not hide the beauty of the iPhone, that one of the things it has is the design, and hide it in rubber or opaque covers, I don't see it as practical, I prefer it to scratch and break if I can't enjoy its design, apart from incase they give away a support, so I feel doubly gifted, a cover from Apple, and A support from Incase that will be useful to me at the moment I had to engineer them XD
How long has it taken you uncle?
Well, since day 4 ...
22 days
I asked for it on the launch day when I bought it, and still nothing, I asked for the apple bumper and from that date it told me that I would receive it on September 9 ... what a roll ...
Gnzl ... yesterday I was commenting on the downgrade comment that Carlinjo mentioned here, and I told you that I wanted to send you a photo with the new case that I have on my iphone4 and today I am surprised that you and several people have the same case, to be honest which is the best, I also have the apple bumper, but I don't like it, because I can't connect my iPhone, it is very complicated and ugly compared to this plastic glass case that is so beautiful… ..now I have apart from the case I also put a transparent plastic on the screen that you don't even notice that it is on my iphone4, this phone has to be taken care of everywhere ... it is very nice.
I also hope to receive the bumper soon to steal (2 iPhones)
I asked for it on the 30th, and I'm still waiting!
Today I only received the bill from movistar xD
Congratulations to those of you who already have your case!
Greetings.
I thus had a cover for my 3GS .. It was a rubber type on the side and the transparent plastic bottom .. The problem: That a week the plastic back was super scratched. It is not as good of material as the iPhone. As it was scratched, it gave the phone a lousy look so I ended up taking it off. Gnzl would like you to tell me in a couple of days how about the scratches on the back? Greetings!
I have also asked for this one, and now I see that there is no protection on the screen, luckily I got caught by Zagg's Invisible shiel maximun coverage, which by the way is the best I have tried (17 euros well invested), but of course for appreciating all its splendor is better without anything .. This, at least if it falls, will protect something else ...
Xradeon, remember to ask me!
I requested it the same day July 30 and at the moment no trace. I ordered the black bumper.
To those who have reached you: Did they confirm the shipment of the carcass by mail?
Thank you
Well, it came to me in less than two weeks. This asking for it on the 30th and I still haven't arrived, what a roll, but well, since I don't charge us anything, we have to wait for a remedy if not.
Shark, I also ordered the $ 20 zagg shield, it was recommended to me by a friend, how good is it?
I have also received the same carcass today. I agree, it's great. Reveal the iPhone completely by covering the sides and back.
Serg, I did receive an email yesterday saying that the case had already been sent to me, and today I received it.
Thank you Edu for your answer.
I'll keep waiting for the bumper. The truth is that the case that you are showing is great.
regards
@Jorge medina: The iPhone 4 is especially FRAGILE, I should put a good cover on it, don't be confused by the rigid and hard appearance of the iPhone 4 exterior. Let me explain:
The most screwed up problem is THE EXTERIOR DESIGN OF THE IPHONE 4.
This weekend I suffered it. I fell off the table in the living room (one of those low ikea tables). Full disaster !!! The wonderful Broken Back Glass.
HOW do you think of making a mobile in which the first part that hits when you fall is made of Crystal !!!!, Take a good look, the crystal is the first thing that touches the ground in a fall.
I suppose that when I slipped and fell (no more than 40cm), hitting and the glass being the first, and I would say only one, that touches the ground, it shattered me.
I have spoken with Apple and they ignore (5 calls and two emails), accidents are not covered by the warranty (in part, I understand). You can kindly prepare a repair estimate for me, which, in principle, amounts to € 210.
But read this (I don't know which paragraph I hallucinate the most with):
http://www.iphonefanatic.net/apple/apple-detiene-reemplazos-de-iphone-4-rotos-despues-de-50-unidades/
HOW DO THEY HAPPEN TO MAKE IT OUT OF GLASS? !!!!!!
The most fragile material known to man:
http://gizmodo.com/5572227/fuuuuuu-gizmodos-first-accidentally-dropped-iphone
Yes, it is extremely hard. But toughness only implies scratch resistance.
Diamond is the hardest material on the planet, indisputable, you give it a tap and then burst into tears.
They have sold us a mobile phone with a glass exterior without protecting it by the edges, the device / object that we mess with the most throughout the day. We take it out and put it in our pants continuously, we pick it up and release it from the table throughout the day (how many people do you know who have dropped their iPhone 3G / 3GS, hit the ground hard and picked it up so normal , with a small spike at most, like ALL mobiles), it is not about being careless, or being clumsy, or anything like that. It is very common for a mobile phone to drop to the ground. You go out in a hurry and you catch it badly. It just synced, you pick it up and the cable snags behind the laptop (which happened to me). You get out of the car and carry it in your trouser pocket and it runs off ...
Those of you who have a 3G will see how the edge of the glass is protected, which has saved people from possible misfortunes on their iPhones. In the iPhone 4, the glass is the first thing that hits when it falls: disaster assured.
Apple knows perfectly what is happening and everyone focused on the AntennaGate (HA! If you only knew)
They are selling us a mercedes slk but without a bumper.
Of course, and for those who request it, they will give them a protective cover (or bumper, as they have called it, a curious name). But yes, you have to wait 2 to 5 weeks to receive it. If not, go to the English court and buy one (as many of you will have done)
YOU HAVE TO BE….!!! well, I get hot
By the way, there are covers that expose the upper and lower area of the glass, like this one from Incase, which is the one I have also asked for.
Take a look at the cases you have and pray that your iPhone doesn't drop and hit there first, and I'm not kidding.
While I was waiting for my case to arrive (there is still 1 week left) I have taken care of it as they say "like gold on cloth", and never better said, with the iMac screen cleaning cloth always underneath (so that it would not be damaged). And with extreme care when handling it. But I lost that concentration for a moment at 2 weeks (I got distracted when I took the iPhone from the table in the living room, the cable got caught behind the laptop and it slipped from my hand).
What a disaster, I thought, this can't be, it has to be the typical iphones fix advertising image of blogs. I did not believe it.
I went to the English court (marbella) and I put the clerk on the 4 and the 3G on the table and turned them over, I just said, pointing out: -2 weeks (for the 4) and 2 years (for the 3G). He raised the sleeve of his shirt and said - My hair is standing on end. Then he took it and, showing it to a couple of customers, who I saw arrive with him, said: -Come, this is why you need to buy a cover. In 1 minute I had already sold three covers (2 of the clients, plus mine, which I bought so that no more crystals would come loose)
And I still don't understand how such a product got out of Apple, they don't do this. Apple makes great, long-lasting gadgets. I do not get it.
We have not been with the iPhone for a long time in Spain and I am sure I have not been one of the first that this has happened, and the worst thing is that it will happen very frequently, until they change this design (iPhone 5, maybe next summer ... )
-Well, having put a bumper or a cover on it, well, yes, I screwed it up, I admit it, but not as much as what Apple has done by exposing and without protection not one, but two crystals in a mobile phone.
A super hard glass, I DO FEEL TO BE SO HARD.
I got this same casing yesterday and it is very good. I wanted it to be transparent to show its design, because the black bumper hides the most beautiful design of the new iPhone, its chrome edge. Summary: It adapts to perfection, it is not noticeable that it is on and of quality.
what a coincidence, right? 😉 I asked for it on the 4th and I received it today the 26th, the same one, but I'm afraid that indeed the back is going to scratch a lot, we'll see, I'll release it tomorrow since the micro of my iPhone 4 does not work and I will receive tomorrow for UPS the new iPhone, thanks to efficient apple support (replacement in advance)
@Jorge medina: The iPhone 4 is especially FRAGILE, you should put a good cover on it, don't be fooled by the rigid and hard appearance of the iPhone 4's exterior, which is shattered by a simple fall from a low table (it happened to me me and had no cover). Apple knows how fragile it is and we with the antenna problem ...
@alvaro: Scratching, especially, it will not scratch you… It is a very hard glass (30 times more than plastic), which implies resistance to scratches. But diamond has the highest hardness of all the common materials that we know of on earth, but, hey, you give it a bang, and then burst into tears.

http://gizmodo.com/5572227/fuuuuuu-gizmodos-first-accidentally-dropped-iphone
I'm going to ask for it, well, I hadn't seen the info, but according to the pic she's pretty ... thanks Gzlo
I still don't have mine ... there was six weeks of waiting ... haaj
I was thinking of ordering this model but in the end I decided on the Griffin Reveal Etch since my previous experience with a similar shell, the Air Jacket from Power Support, was in almost everything really positive except that it finished the back totally scratched and Giving the terminal an old-used look is the price you have to pay to maintain the aesthetics of the iPhone. The Griffin also has rubber protection on the sides that always absorbs shock a little better, although we hope there are none ...
What do you think of the belkin micra? Is it the one I'm thinking of asking myself ... by the way, the camera glass scratches easily?
Hello, I also asked for it on day 1 but it has not arrived yet, I was told on September 26, but I think you really do not focus on the issue of the bumper, which served to not lose the coverage of the iPhone 4, since you can see it Ke has some thin metal bars on the sides, for that supposedly the apple gave the bumper. I asked for the transparent casing anyway because I didn't like the bumper at all, hehehehe
Congratulations on the bumper, Gnzl :)
I'm still waiting for the one I asked for on August 8. In my case, pielskin HD. Life is black! ^ ^
lesprit, all the covers they give serve the same purpose, the bumper is nothing more than a piece of silicone. What has metallic are the buttons for aesthetics.
Well, I've been there for almost a month and I still haven't received my bumper, what can I do?
Hello, I think it's good, and the comments too…. I chose another one and to change they ask me for the serial number of this one you are committing….
Some of those who have already received it could send me or put the serial number, they say that it begins with MC ……. or MH ……
Thank you
I will get the iPhone4 next week, and I had decided to order the bumper, but after this post, I may decide on this transparent case. Although I am a bit worried about this that you mention that the back of the Incase is scratched quickly. I know that you have to download an application to order the bumper / casing, but you have a link where I can see which ones are available. And already put to order, and this is complicated, you know of a place where they still sell screen protectors for the iPhone 2G (yes, yes, the 2). It is that I have one and the protector as you can imagine already has its time and I wanted to change it, but I can not find any place. In some it puts 2G-3G protector, but that is not true since they do not have the same size.

I asked for it on August 5 and they tell me that on October 5 I will have it. Not even sent:
Estimated shipping time: Sep 30, 2010
Approximate delivery time: Oct 05, 2010
Everyone congratulates Gnzl for the chosen cover, but if this same entry had been put by carlinhos half the world would say, »and to show us a silly cover, do you open a new topic? What it is to be ignorant, you do not contribute anything, blah, blah ... »paradoxes of life.
And congratulations Gnzl, the cover is very nice.
I don't just want to show the case, but let people know that they have already started to be received.
That is precisely why carlinhos has left, because he was very fond of it.
I have asked myself this one to stand that this very good is made of carbon fiber look at the photos and give me your opinion.

As I said before, I think that the 4th comment of the post, indeed the case arrived yesterday. I stopped by the post office today to pick it up. The truth is that she is beautiful and all, but mine already arrived half scratched and since it is free I suppose it cannot be claimed. In any case, as they have already said several times, because it is transparent it will scratch a lot, even just by rubbing it with something that is not made of soft microfiber ...
Now I'm waiting for Zagg's Incredible Shield to come next week ...
@morpha if you can claim it by calling 900 150 503 providing the order number that was sent to you in the order confirmation email. You tell him what happened to you and they send you a UPS agent to pick up the package and then they send you another one.
It has nothing to do with the fact that the order is free, you will see how they will change it
But does it solve the coverage problems or not?
Pepe, there has already been more than spoken, personally I do not have coverage problems, for those who have them of course that solves them, as long as you do not touch the joint of the 2 antennas….
None, I received it today and the natural look is great. we have made a good choice.
Hello, for all of you who have the case of the photos (snapcase), can it be put in the dock without removing it? (with the small piece that you put depending on whether you are going to put the iphone or the ipod)
I ordered this case today, but I would like to know if I will be able to continue charging the iphone on my watch without removing the adapter (without the adapter, I get the impression that I can charge the connector very easily).
A greeting.
Good afternoon, today they told me in El Corte Inglés that good iPhone cases are not given away directly by Aplee but that each operator gives them away until September 30. In my case they told me to go to the movistar page and ask for it, but I can't find anything and I'm going crazy !!! Can somebody help me?
Those of you who are already using the covers, which one do you recommend?
By the way, some of you have been able to download the new iOS 4.1 software update. The button where you have to press to download does not appear to me ...
Thank you
Hi, I'm Claudia, and I'm going to answer the two questions, I know you asked them a long time ago, but I'm done getting here.
For updates you have to have itunes downloaded on the computer and when connecting the phone to the computer, although I tell me when a new phone comes out, and for the covers I recommend that you choose one that covers the entire phone in case you silicone drops that bounce.
Bye, a kiss
