Reviews for Apple iPhone 4 Bumper - Black

I cannot fit a standard head phone jack through the relevant hole in the bumper.

I also cannot fit a standard 3rd party charger cable through the relevant hole in the bumper.

I therefore have to remove the bumper everytime I want to listen to music or charge at work. This has caused accelerated wear and tear and I have got through 2 bumpers in under 2 years. The design is seriously flawed.

Ridiculously expensive and this is something that I need to have in order to avoid the signal attenuation problem inherent in the iphone 4 design.

I really liked this case, it saved my phone many times I have dropped my phone face down on concrete as well as in the street and my screen was unharmed. This case also hhelps with the AT&T iPhone 4 Untennae problem.

Worked well as long it lasted, but i expected it to last for more than 8 months even though used it with out much of care ( more of rough use).

This bumper is GREAT had it for sometime now and had no problems with the bumper coming loose or scratching the phone! It also makes my iPhone looks great and fits prefect on the iPhone 4S. I have got an front and back screen protecter on my phone as the bumper does not cover these areas, However the bumper does have a rubber rim which stops the front and back glass touching the surface! Another great product from Apple and would recommend to anyone who is thinking about buying one!!!!

The Apple Bumper is a well thought-of case. I personally don't like bulky cases and cases that cover the back of my iPhone. Also, I'm very picky with whatever I put my iPhone on. My bumper's colour is black - I like to keep it simple yet elegant. It looks great, I tell you!

However, if you're very artsy, I recommend you to get one of the neon colours, specifically blue or green (orange and pink looks cheap in my opinion). I personally don't recommend the white bumper because not only does the rubber get very dirty easily, it turns to yellow overtime. Every salesman I went to in stores didn't have it in stock because of the bad reviews.

If you're looking for something that would protect your iPhone from damaging falls and accidental slipping, the Apple Bumper is right item to get! I'm really happy with mine and for months, I haven't put on any of my previous cases - that is definitely something.

My bumper has been on my iPhone for months and it hasn't gotten any loose. Perhaps it depends on how you treat your phone. If you keep switching from the bumper to another case then I'm sure it's bound to loosen its grip.

I ensure you, the moment your bumper's attached to your iPhone, you're never going to look for any case again. It's perfect for me.

Apologies for such a long review, but I hope it helps nevertheless. Enjoy!

I've tried others covers which I couldn't stand after a week, I found them to be bulky, hefty, and slippery plus I like to put my iPhone in a shirt pocket or pant pocket. I hate belt clips.

After 2 years of use on my iPhone 4, it finally needs replaced. I guess 29.00 is not a bad cost to protect a $600.00 phone. What I like the best about my bumper, is it STICKS to surfaces like glue including cloth. It's never slipped out of my shirt pocket and my friends are amazed when they compare their case to the bumper for slipping or sliding on a surfaces (including glass & paper) thats not absolutely horizontal. No wonder they need a bullet proof case! I also find my iPhone with the bumper far more lighter and compact with the bumper compared to the cases I've tried or seen being used by my friends. Note: In two years my iPhone has never been dropped!

I can understand why a woman would find the bumper not lasting very long being carried in today's purses (which are like small suit cases). The bumper would take a higher degree of abuse rubbing against so many other objects.

I believe the bumper is a highly effective product for the right use.

I LOVED it for the first 3 months until the rubber on top ripped. Didn't last very long.. Like I said only 3 months.

First, let me say that this is only a bumper and NOT a case. Yes, it is used to protect the rim of the iPhone, but do not buy this thinking it is a case meant to protect against a 40 caliber bullet...or a 4 foot drop (Whichever comes first). This is simply a way to personalize your phone. The iPhone offers a slim and sleek design and this bumper helps maintain that appeal and yet adding a little more protection along the edges and rim of the iPhone with a plastic rim and rubberized raised edges. I purchased a front and back screen protector to go with the slim bumper that does not take away from the shine of the glass yet helps me feel better about the open space on the back of the phone and it getting scratched. Not only is it sleek and simple, but it also maintains the warranty of the iPhone since Apple makes this product. It slides in and out of your pocket easily as if the iPhone had no case. The rubber edges allow it to remain firm on a slick surface and also allow you to feel comfortable to lay the phone face down on the table due to its raised rim. One of my favorite parts is the fact that the volume and on/off buttons are covered with an attractive silver button that maintains the original appeal of the silver buttons of the iPhone. I say if you love your iPhone and want to take advantage of its slimness and sleekability (new word) than I dare you to purchase this bumper. You wont regret it!

This case is pretty cool. It has a solid feel and I really dig it. It seems to protect the aluminum/ antenna very nicely. The only thing that's not that great about it is the price. I got this as a birthday present so I didn't spend a penny towards it but $30 is way too much for this piece of rubber and plastic.

I love this case. Here's why: it is a bumper so most of the phone is still visible. Also, the buttons are still metal. The bumper wraps around the front and back of the phone so I can set it down without fearing it will get scratched. Finally, it provides enough protection to keep the phone safe. I dropped my phone with the bumper on. Although there are a few signs of the drop on the bumper, the phone it self is in pristine condition. I love this bumper. I was hesitant to buy it because people said it starts to look bad and scratch your phone - neither of which have happened to me.
