Apple iPhone 4 Bumper - (PRODUCT) RED

• Apple iPhone 4 Bumper - (PRODUCT) RED - does not fit iPhone 4 correctly

  1.0 out of 5 stars

  I recently purchased one of the Apple iPhone 4 - (PRODUCT) RED Bumpers .. After i took it home and put it on my iPhone 4 the phone kept wanting to fully shut down as it does when you hold down the power switch..
  
  So i hit cancel and then lift the bumper off switch as it was pressing down constantly .. Was very confused as this bumper was supposed to fit iPhone 4 & 4S , so i called the Apple store where i purchased it from and they said to bring it back in and they would look at it .. When they did they used another RED bumper from their own stock and same thing happened again phone would power off by self.. Volume keys are fine only power button has the issue.
  
  The Apple sales guy used same bumper on a 4S in store and case worked perfectly as you would expect... After looking at the various power buttons on iPhone 4 , 4S & even 5 they are all slightly different heights and the iPhone 4 is higher then rest which causes the case to constantly be powering off phone due to pressure ..
  
  He spoke to one of the GENIUS bar guys and they didn't think power buttons were any different at all .. i went home after a refund which was all good anyway and compared to my Wife's iPhone 4 and that also has same height power button ...
  
  Not sure if all Apple bumpers are same or if (PRODUCT) RED bumper being newer was made differently but they certainly do not work well with a iPhone 4 … More (Read full review)

  I've been through a lot of cases for my iPhone 4S, and should have gone for the official product right from the start. The bumper fits the phone nicely, aligning perfectly with the buttons, speakers, charge port etc. It doesn't hide your entire phone like a lot of cases do, and keeps the phone raised off its screen on a flat surface to prevent scratches. The buttons are metal and feel very solid. The only downfall I can see is that it will prevent the use of some headphones as the hole is quite narrow, but this isn't an issue for me. Personally I think it's worth the price. … More (Read full review)

  I’m a strong supporter of Apple and have a full range of your Apple products for which I always buy Apple branded accessories. I d ecided to purchase this bumper for my iPhone 4 in September rather than a cheaper cover because I thought I would be getting the best quality. Along with delivery it cost £30.80 and although this isn’t cheap especially considering I am student, I was willing to pay it because I believed it would last me the length of my phone contract if not longer. Only about 5 months later in February, the bumper had ripped on the rubber at the top next to the earphone slot. The only thing that could have caused this was taking the bumper off the iPhone which I only did a handful of times since its purchase.
  
  I’m really disappointed that this has happened as it meant my iPhone was unprotected and so I had to buy another cover. I do still strongly support Apple products but this has discouraged me from continuing to buy Apple accessories rather than far cheaper ones available online as Apple products don’t actually last any longer. I wanted to send mine back to Apple just so they could look into improving their accessories but unfortunately couldn’t find an address.
  
  **My advice is don’t buy this product or any similar to it as they break REALLY easily.** … More (Read full review)

  I too have had problems with the phone constantly presenting the closedown screen. I have replaced the 'Red' bumper once already and the same thing happens. I own a 4S and have had a couple of black bumpers in the past, all have worked perfectly well (they just split because I am constantly taking them off to use other devices, simple wear and tear).
  
  It appears that the Red one is either made from different materials or is a slightly different size. The on/of button activates of its own accord and also, if I press on the top part of the bumper, not the button itself, the same happens.
  
  Sorry Apple, sold as I am on your products, in my opinion this one is quite simply not up to standard. … More (Read full review)
