Reviews for kate spade new york Case for iPhone 4S/4

I loved the look of this case from the moment I set my eyes on it - and months later I'm still not sick of the design. Only thing is the white bumper part of the case is originally perfect white which I loved on my white iPhone, but only about 2 weeks later it started to dirty and turn a purply colour. I took a full day and tried everything I could to get it back to that original white colour, without success. Which is why I wouldn't pay that amount of money again for that type of case. Other than that, it's very sturdy and protects my phone without being too bulky.

To address the previous reviewer, if the bumper covered the edge where the home button resides, the speakers would be muffled and it would be more difficult to plug in your phone.

I was also concerned about the material of the hardshell case. As the previous reviewer said, it's slippery. The surface is smooth and shiny, but it's not slippery. That was one of my main concerns. In fact, I was surprised at the good grip I can get.

It also provides great protection. The case seems as if it would be really frail, but it's not. The first time I dropped my iPhone, it landed screen-down, but the edge of the bumper acted as a buffer, preventing damage. The second time I dropped my phone on concrete, but the case took the beating (while still staying in tact) when it hit the ground. It still works great though!

The only problem I have is that the white bumper loses its color. It starts to yellow and mine sort of turned reddish. However, I wasn't too bothered because it seems to add character to my phone case.
