Review: Case works as advertised. Had trouble applying the protective transparent screen, so decided not to. The outer case works great. Modern minimalistic look. Only draw back is that some earjacks don't fit all the way into the port. (although the standard iphone earphones will with no problem).

Review: The grey is more of a gunmetal and not at all as light as the picture makes it out to be. If you watch the video carefully you will notice the lighting changes it from the predominant "silver" appearance to the gunmetal. Two of the foam inserts also came already peeled off.

Review: I wanted to wait several weeks before providing a review of this Jett Metal Case. After 4 weeks of use, I am convinced that this is arguably the best iPhone 4s case in the market.
I was skeptical of the supposed antenna issues but I have not had any issues in that regard. I appreciate how the case doesn't take away from the aesthetics of the phone yet enhances it.
However, to my surprise the case adds a little weight to the phone which is not a cause of concern. At times the phone can be a little slippery to hold but due to the weight it's less likely to be dropped.
I highly recommend this case and the price is justifiable, I was able to obtain a 10% coupon online which made the purchase even more worthwhile.

Review: This is a great case. Solid feel and sturdy. I wasn't sure about spending $50.00 but i'd do it again. I've owned 8-10 cases for my 4S and probably 10 cases for my 3GS and this by far is the best case.
There is only one problem I wish Case-Mate world fix. Not all head phones work with the headphone jack. I would give this 5 stars but for the problem with the headphone jack. Sorry guys 4 stars only.
How about some other colors?

Review: Another quality case! I've owned barely there's, brushed aluminums, and the old hula cases, all great. But this case is the end all, be all. It solves the only two gripes I had with the iPhone, weight and feel. I have very large hands, adding the extra 1/4 inch of girth makes it feel just right in my hands. And it makes the handset feel more solid, like it is an extension of the phone, not just a case. Bravo case-mate, I love you guys!

Review: When the iPhone 4 came out, I bought an aluminum bumper case from Element for $130. It looked great, but the signal loss made my phone practically useless, so I threw the Element bumper in the trash after two weeks.
When I started shopping for 4S cases, I wanted to get something that looked like the Element cases, but didn't block the signal. I thought that maybe they have fixed the problems with the Element cases, but I didn't want to gamble $150 on it.
I found the Case-Mate aluminum bumpers. I like the look a lot, and the reviews were mostly positive when it came to reception. I thought it was worth risking $50.
Shipment was very prompt. I got my case in two days using standard shipping. Assembly was quick and easy (I followed the instructions from a video on You Tube).
I've had my Case-Mate bumper for over a month, now. My phone works fine. If there is any signal degradation, it is very minor, so I am quite pleased with that aspect.
Aesthetically, it looks great (as expected). I've gotten several compliments on it.
I expected the case to look great. I had hoped it wouldn't block my phone's signal. I, however, didn't expect that the bumper would provide a great deal of protection if I dropped the phone.
This morning, I was at the gym. I was getting stuff out of my locker, when my phone slipped out of my hand. I tried to catch it, but I just knocked it up into the air (it looked like something from an NFL blooper clip). It seemed like I was watching in slow-motion as my phone flew up over my shoulder, and landed face down with a loud smack on the hard, tile floor. I felt sick. I figured the screen was shattered for sure (Why didn't I buy that damn protection plan from AT&T).
I picked up my phone, flipped it over, and the screen was in perfect condition. I turned the phone on, and everything functioned properly. I couldn't believe it. The case had shifted off the phone a bit, but I just snapped it back into place and everything is just fine.
I highly recommend this case.

| Pros: |
Thin, durable, scratch-resistant, light-weight, matches iPhone 4S color (black), fits the iPhone 4S perfectly, looks stunning. |
| Cons: |
A few attempts may be required to get the right fit, non-OEM (Apple) chargers won't work, most L-shaped headphone plugs won't work, most iPhone charging stands will not work with this case (and to be fair, with almost any other case). |

Review: These disclaimers are needed here:
1). I am very picky about my electronic boy-toys (including phones).
2). I don't write reviews unless I am satisfied beyond my highest expectations.
3). I hate almost all iPhone cases because they are either too thick/thin (Otterbox is a disgrace!), or look just plain awful on an iPhone (for my picky taste, at least).
If you read through the "Pros" I mentioned you'd have a fairly good idea of why I'm so happy with this case and feel compelled to write a review (I want everyone to have this case). Once correctly installed, this case looks like it is am integral part of the iPhone 4S. This case is thin but appears (and is indeed) very sturdy. It is very light-weight and provides reasonable protection for both front and back glass surfaces. It fits the iPhone 4S within tolerances usually required by NASA and once it's on, you know it is not coming off your iPhone by accident. I have had zero issues related to signal impairment and/or dropped calls after installing this case. Finally, this case looks stunning and I get compliments on it everyday (disclaimer: I've only used this case in black color and can't speak for the remaining color choices).
The "cons" of this case are mostly immaterial. It may take you a few attempts to get the fit just right. I was able to get this case on my iPhone 4S in less than five minutes. Non-Apple chargers will not work with this case. If you have an L-shaped headphone plug, it will (most likely) not work with this case. Please remember that this case provides reasonable protection for careful users; it is not an Otterbox. Finally, most iPhone bases and charging-stands will not work with this case, and in all fairness, they don't work with almost every other case.
This case works for me and I'm completely satisfied. I would recomment this case to anyone, any day.

Review: The grey aluminum bumper is the sickest case ever. No reception issue here in Toronto, Canada, all full bars. If you have bestskinsever around ur iPhone it will make it harder to pull up/down on the mute switch but I do not mind. Raised bezel top and down great way to protect my screen protectors. Sleep/wake and volume buttons work perfectly. Volume buttons will rattle slightly because it is loose fit. Did not come with screen protectors as seen in some packages on youtube. You cannot find a better metal bumper at the $50 price range. I totally recommend this case to everyone.

Review: It's a beautiful case. You will be hard press to find another case as beautiful as this Jett metal case. But it WILL AFFECT YOUR iPhones performance. I didn't want to believe it. Had my wife's iPhone (without a Jett case) in my hand...full bars of reception, my phone with the Jett metal case 2bars of reception. I didn't want to accept the truth so I removed the Jett metal case & my iPhone jumped to Full bars reception. Was happy to see my phone was good to go, but so sad that i have to return this work of art.

Review: Decent case with great protection of my iPhone 4S but because of the Jett's dimensions, you can't use any non-apple chargers or headphones. My "Beats by Dr. Dre" don't fit in the earphone plug and my built in apple charger in my car doesn't fit. Soooo anoying if you use a lot of non apple charging docks around your house/car/office etc. Don't buy if that's the case since you can't quickly remove the case without the screwdriver on you.

Review: After reading a couple of the reviews I was a little unsure about ordering this case.I am happy to say all those worries were put to rest. Lets start with the color, I ordered it in Grey. I read that it had a greenish tint to it. Case-mate must have read that too because my case was grey,a little darker than the original steel band on the phone.I did have to buy an adapter that I bought at the recommendation from one of the reviewers.Pro Cable shortz extender by Rad Tech. Works great. My head phones fit perfect, I use Future Sonics Atrio M5 special edition earphones. On to the assembly, don't know what all the fuss was that I was reading. I assembled it in less than five minutes with no problems at all. I must say this is a very good looking case. I always get someone asking about it. Very happy that I pulled the trigger and bought it.

Review: I bought this case for my black iPhone 4s and was slightly worried that it might not fit properly due to the slight change in button position from the 4 to the 4s. But I needn't have worried as the case fits fine and the buttons line up too. The only slight flaw I would say is that the lock button and the volume buttons rattle slightly if you shake the iPhone but I think this is me being fussy more than anything. This case looks even better in person and I will be recommending it to my friends.

Review: I like this case, it has a nice sturdy solid build to it. Although as other reviews also state, it's not really a "case" per se, it's a "bumper" Also, one thing to be aware of when you buy this is that it also includes screen covers for both the front AND the back. They are the single tab designed plastic screen covers.
