    Bad case

    • Written by from Newport Beach

    Good case at first. Liked how you could see the back but it was protected on the edges. I would set my phone down on tables and it would start to break. the rubber is peeling and from dropping it once the whole edges turned black. BAD CASE!

    Not worth the money!!

    • Written by from London

    Considering I bought this item for £26 (approx. $40) I would expect it to last at least for a year? Is that unreasonable? After few days of usage, my beatiful sky blue bumper case is dirty and rubber around it looks yellow and old. Disguisting, It doesn't come off with anything! Anybody on this page claiming that it stays lovely and clean no matter where you put it - well I am sure you work for Apple so stop telling people lies! The only safe option is to buy a black one. No worth the money, go to your local mobile phone store, get a basic one for £4 and you'll be a happy person.

    Great

    • Written by from Santa Monica

    I personally don't like most cases that are made for the iphone 4. So when I came across this bumper, I decided to try it out since it showed off my white iphone so beautifully (plus I've dropped my phone twice and the bumper completely protected it). I've had it for about 3 months now and the only bad thing I can say about it is that the grey rubber gets dirty quite easily. I'm going to repurchase one soon just because I love it so much. I'm only upset about the fact that it's a 30 dollar product that should be replaced every 3-4 months. Otherwise, I'm happy!

    Disappointed

    • Written by from WHITE BEAR LAKE

    I've had two of these bumpers. One white and the other green. They look great for about 2 months then the edges show dirty smudges. I've tried numerous cleaning products with no luck. Its great for solving the antenna problem, but I can't stand the dirty edges. I'm going to buy a third party case. Very disappointed in this Apple product.

    Read my review before you buy

    • Written by from TARZANA

    Hey guys,

    I've had the white bumpers for a while now and I'm using it along with my Power Support screens front and back and so far I haven't had any problems with it. I know that the material is slightly different than the black color, it is less grippy but I like it better actually.

    The good thing about it is that it covers the buttons too, just make sure you take off the case and clean it every once in a while cause dust will build up and white color will always get dirty fast, that is NORMAL.

    You cannot use any third party accessories because all the cutouts are designed for Apple OEM accessories, unless the plugs have the same size as the OEM ones then it will fit.

    Overall, this is a good case and it looks sweet too. =)

    I love the bumper case

    • Written by from Stouffville

    This still has to be the coolest non-case out there for the iPhone 4. It adds just enough grip when it's in your hands, does not snag in your pants pocket when you pull it out, I have never dropped the iPhone with this thing on, but the moment I took it off, guess what happened? Yeah I dropped it as it was so slippery with out it. I never take it off anymore unless I'm cleaning it thoroughly. I've had this case since it was offered free. It was good then as it is now. I would gladly pay 30$ for another one of these. You just can't beat the quality and style of this thing. I like how all the buttons are accessible and look exactly like the buttons underneath. With it on the Iphone feels much more comfortable to hold provides enough grip so you have something to hold on to, prevents antenna gate, does not hide the iphone's beautiful design and the glass front and back.... what more can you ask for?

    LOVE MY BUMPER!!!

    • Written by from Crockett

    I love my free black bumper. The biggest reason why I love it is because I don't have to worry about the back of my iPhone getting scratched sitting on wooden desk at work. The back still looks glossy and new like when I first got it.

    Of course now the bumper is getting banged up from a few times of dropping the phone, etc....but I realize I'm glad it's the bumper that is beat up, and not the phone. When you take the bumper off, it still looks brand new.

    Minimal bulkiness like most other iPhone cases, while still very functional.

    Don't buy it

    • Written by from Burnaby

    This white bumper looks great but after taking it off I realized that it scratched the frame of my iPhone. It should be noted that I always baby this phone. I love the iphone4 but this is a very poor product IMO.

    Bumper

    • Written by from angleton

    It's a really great case i've dropped my phone twice (gasp) i know my heart stopped but the case did it's job and not a scatch was on phone when i picked it up. The only thing that annoys me about this case is that i can't charge my phone with it on. I have to take it off every time, but other than that it's a great case.

    • Written by from Springfield Gardens

    my only issue with the bumper is that a little pressure on the right upper corner will press the standby button, other than that i've got no issues.. oh wait, the price!!

    All about looks, not protection.

    • Written by from Happy Valley

    Ok, I'll get straight to the point. This case is great for looks, and not so great when it comes to durability. I have a white bumper and it looks great on my white iPhone. However, the plastic chips off very easily, and on top of that, the rubber peels off after some time. Overall, it's a good case, but if it's durability you're looking for, then this case is probably not for you.

    Awesome Case

    • Written by from Naperville

    I've had the black bumper for my black iPhone 4 since late September 2010 and it is great! It still looks like it came out of the box. No matter where I put it table, desk, etc. no matter how dirty where i place it, it still the same!

    Terrible!

    • Written by from Blandford Forum

    Got this free with the give away to solve signal problems. I was glad I did not have to pay for this as it snapped where the charger plugs in causing it to become lose around the edge. It is also impossible to use other headphones/adaptors unless they are from apple. In order to use my car stereo plug I have to remove the case!

    Over priced for what it is!

    Scratches

    • Written by from Lytham

    Got this free on the case program, has since scratched the silver band all the way around my iphone 4. Overpriced rubbish.

    It's good except

    • Written by from Rochester

    I bought the white one and it certainly does its job.
    I dropped it so many times and the bumper took all the hits. My phone doesn't have a single scratch. The only bad thing about the white one is that it only looks good for about a week and then the rubber part turns gray. It doesn't look bad, it just looks used and dirty. I'm thinking of getting the blue one.

    terrible with headphones

    • Written by from West Covina

    The hole for the headphone jack is too small and does not allow some headphone plugs to fit. All the third party cases and bumpers do not have this problem.

    Good but not very durable

    • Written by from Petoskey

    I got this bumper Oct 2010 and it was great! It had a good grip and it shows the front & back design of the iPhone elegantly. The elevated buttons added to the bumper definitely helped. The only drawback to the buttons though is that the top button can be too sensitive. It's July 2011 and I had to buy another case, but not a bumper. Last month the rubber part deteriorated from the plastic part. And like everyone commented, it does tend to scuff/scratch the silver sides (which is no biggy for me). Overall it's a good case for gripping. But with heavy usage (case taken on/off to plug speakers, and in/out from front pockets) the durability is a 3 out of 5.

    Started off well...

    • Written by from London

    I got the bumper as part of the free programme last year, but it has rapidly fallen apart over the past few weeks. Headphones and speakers were a nightmare to the point that I just carried my old iPod around with me too.

    I wanted to get a replacement but £26 is hideous for a piece of rubber. I could probably buy an entire tyre for a similar price, not to mention an actual phone.
