    Wow, great

    • Written by from FAIRFIELD

    Bought black for me, white for wife. Just like everything Apple does, design is brilliant. Shows the beautiful scratch resistant glass front and back, provides a lot of protection edges and corners where needed. Great comfortable soft grip also keeps phone from sliding. Has saved me several times, phone survived drops unscathed. Looks cool, especially white with soft grey trim.

    Bumper Case

    • Written by from Barrington

    I got my iphone in July 2011 and I went without any sort of case for quite a while. When I purchased the phone, I also bought the Zagg screen protectors that same day...so the phone wasn't entirely exposed. Anyways, I disliked the idea of spending $30 on what seems to be a tiny piece of plastic with silicone around the edges, but I also love the sleek design of the phone so I didn't want to cover that up with a bulky case. I bought the white bumper case for my white phone in August 2011 and I've had it ever since. It looks great, feels great, and complements the design of the phone. I'd consider myself to be quite a clumsy person and this bumper case has held up very well! After all the slips and drops, yes, the case is no longer white and it has a couple nicks and scratches. OH WELL...phone still works and looks great. I will be purchasing another one soon! If dirt is going to be an issue for you, don't purchase the white one. This was money well spent. I really like the built in buttons on the case... that's a nice feature.

    You get what you pay for.

    • Written by from Chipping Norton

    I've spent lots of money on inexpensive cases for my white iPhone 4s, and they've all had their problems and ended up being abandoned. They deform or they discolour (or both), or they just frankly spoil the look of your lovely white phone. So far I love this bumper. It looks really stylish, and the metal buttons are very classy. It's rigid and I can't see how it will deform. So far I've had no discolouration (which means it's already beaten my last Hard Candy case). This isn't really designed to protect your phone, but rather to make it easier to hold (we all know the iPhone is a terribly slippery beast) whilst also looking gorgeous. You get what you pay for, and I think if you want a good quality bumper that might just last more than a week this is probably the thing to buy.

    It Does What It Says, Brilliantly

    • Written by from London

    I gave this product a 5-star review, because this product does what it says, and does it briliantly.

    I have read some of the other reviews, I think there was a common mistake there which is that the main function of this case, is not protection, but customisation. The case really gives your iPhone a modern style; the colour I bought, which is white, is the same as what it is shown on the web-page, and the extended mental buttons are just classy.

    The case has a unique design, which can protect your iPhone from being scratched when you put it on a table or any other flat surfaces, as well, as the case is thicker than the phone. The edge of the case is rubber, which feels comfortable at hands, and reduce scratches on other subjects, and noises when your put it down on a table, etc.

    I do agree with the fact that the case limits the compatibility of your iPhone with some other accessories, though, but this is relative, as you can also say the other accessories limit your usage of this case.

    If the material of the rubber edge can be improve, the case will be perfect, as I found it is not that anti-slippery.

    Overall, 5 stars and highly recommended.

    functional for everyday use

    • Written by from Missouri City

    The apple white bumper adds a formal classy, sleek, style to the black iPhone. It allows the iPhone to keep its slim appearance. If you want extra front protection, the HD antiglare film fits perfectly with the bumper, while also eliminating constant smudges to the iPhone screen.

    Before I purchased the Apple iPhone bumper, I was using the Pink Otter Box, which gave maximum protection to my iPhone when I went to The Grand Canyon and dropped my phone in the rocks, but for everyday use it became too bulky, and the protective screen gets scratched, which is why I tried the Apple bumper for a sleeker appearance for everyday use. Loving it.

    Simply the best case design for the iPhone 4.

    • Written by from Glenealy

    I got a free bumper with my 1st gen iPhone 4 because of the apple case giveaway that followed the antenna controversy. It was so good that when the time came to upgrade my phone, I bought a new bumper case for my new iPhone 4S.

    The bumper is everything a case should be. It doesn't ruin the look of a beautiful product, it compliments it. It doesn't get in the way, it's totally unobtrusive. And finally it does a really good job of protecting the phone. To illustrate, let me recount a little story...

    I fell walking down some steps while carrying the iPhone in my right hand. Basically, I went flying up into the air and crashed down on my back. To break my fall I instinctively put out my hands. The side of the iPhone crashed into the stone steps with the full weight of my body behind it. The result? A little scuff on the bumper but absolutely no damage to the phone.

    The bumper is a minimalist case but it's a great design and it does a great job. Buy one!

    Awesome case. have it on my white 4S!

    • Written by from Manchester

    Definately a great case if you love to show off your iPhone like i do. I got my white bumper case with my iPhone 4S and it looks great! however like alot of people have said, there is definately a discoloration of the rubber part of the case after awhile. Getting a black case will obviously elimate that problem. However if you want a different color anyway, i recommend taking the phone out once a week and cleaning the bumper inside and out with water. this will slow down the discoloration and also clean out the inside preventing scratches on the antenna due to dust particles and etc.

    LOVE this item!

    • Written by from Placerville

    I am a new iPhone owner and just bought the bumper three days ago. I love it because it gives my phone the protection it needs without taking away from its sleek style. I was dreading a big bulky case.

    Only trust Apple for this one!

    • Written by from Springfield

    I was skeptical at first. The average review is only three stars, but I knew I wanted a bumper case. A slim profile was important to me and I like to be able to see the phone. I'm a college student so dirt and water aren't really a big concern. It lives in my pocket, see. That's not too harsh of an environment. The bumper really is an awesome possibility for the iPhone 4 and 4S. It sticks past the edges of the phone just enough to keep the back and screen off of surfaces and it's impossible to drop the phone on a normal, flat surface and the case not take the impact.

    I tried two cheap knockoff bumpers before this one because I didn't want to spend $30 on such a simple product. Well, as it turns out, it's not so simple. The first bumper's buttons stuck and quickly discolored. After about a week the lock button cover fell off and cracks started to appear in the plastic around the buttons. The second bumper didn't fit exactly right. Pressure anywhere along the top edge of the phone would trigger the lock/unlock and MU phone frequently locked in the middle of a task or prompted me to shut off arbitrarily. The moral or the story is that though these bumpers are much cheaper (~$2) they just aren't quality products. This one fits perfectly. The buttons have good feel and look high quality. The profile is actually slimmer than the others I tried, too. That means its smaller in my pocket and still keeps the screen off of the table or car console.

    I hope to save you the trouble of being disappointed in the cheaper bumpers and buyin this in the end, but, heck, they're cheap enough to experiment with if you want. I assure you, though, Apple's attention to detail really shines on this product. It's a perfect fit. The buttons look and feel great. I didn't have to use a knife to get the silence switch hole to fit my 4S. You can really buy this case and not worry about it anymore. Do yourself a favor and just buy this one to begin with! Hope this helps.

    Fit, form, and function in the palm of your hand!

    • Written by from Carlisle

    This case has it all: fit, form, and function. Not only does it look great, it also feels great in the palm of your hand and lies securely (without slipping) for use on flat surfaces. The bumper has enough grip to minimize sliding around on your car dashboard or console, yet it's smooth enough to carry in a shirt or pants pocket without snagging. It fully protects all edges and faces of the iPhone in a highly functional and unobtrusive fashion. Well done!

    Great minimalist protection.

    • Written by from Vancouver

    With the wide variety of colour choices, you can pick and choose a colour to match your phone. I ended up getting a white to match my white iphone. The bumper does add a bit more thickness, due to an edge. That edge will protect the screen/back from being scratched, and dropped on. Saved my phone already. The look with the bumper still remains clean and simple. Exactly what I was looking for.

    Happy purchase for my 4S.

    Great Product!

    • Written by

    I've had my white bumper for about 4 months now, and it's still in perfect condition. It hasn't cracked or discolored. Something to note: The white one has grey in it too that isn't too noticeable in bright light, and I really like it. I love that it doesn't cover the back of my phone. I got a white phone so I could see all the white! :) I've dropped my phone several times; no damage has been done. Even if something did happen to this, I'd go right out and buy another one.

    Best Case Ever

    • Written by from Mechanicsburg

    This case is my favorite. It does start out a little on the stiff side, but I've had it for a year and it's perfect. I got the white and it still looks almost like it did when I got it. I dropped it twice, once on concrete and once on a wood floor. Both times it landed on the corner of the case. The concrete one left a stress mark on the case that is only visible when you look really close...the phone...was fine. This case is sleek, protective and an absolute pleasure!
