Naked case by fommy and case mate review!

So i bought a naked case from fommy.com,great case can use the touch screen even tho it has a screen over it,and wont scratch the silver bars on your 3g iphone!the only thing i do not like about the one from fommy is it seems they did not use really expensive acrylic but it is still great,as for now it is a temp case but great,until case mate gets there one in stock/shipping i highly suggest everyone gets one.

Can some one go to fommy.com and casemate.com and check both of the 3g naked cases and tell me whats the difference?and which is better

They say both are about the same.... do you get any kind of bubbles or marks under the screen?

well the case mate is better looks like it is made with better acrylic,has a lock that snaps on unlike fommy that just slides down into place,and i think the front is more sturdy to...i am going to get case mate once they have it on sale.

I am trying to get away from screen protectors.... I can't stand bubbles or dust under them and their are a pain to put on....

With your fommy can you see bubbles under the screen or marks and I am sure with the cut outs you will get dirt in there in time?

I read some where on this forum or another one that case mate is the best to go with... but then some say fommy...

I found this one on Macrumors and it looks nice as well... but I can see from the pics some pressure marks on the screen take a look...

Watching these videos this one is for case mate I don't like the cut out for the ear as it is big and I don't care for that black ring around the screen......


The fommy has a smaller cut out for the ear and doesn't have that ring around the screen....


But wonder what one is better myself...

I think the fommy is pretty comparable to the Icebox.... cut out for ear and the screen.... as for the IceBox Pro if you read that thread I posted everyone is wondering where we can get them in the US as many want it but only the UK store has them right now...

I guess it would cost like $50.00 to get one shipped to us... but not sure....

Here is their site

GEAR4 NEW! IceBox Pro for iPhone 3G

Here's a list of all of the stores to where you could order the Ice Box Pro

GEAR4 - Free your tunes

I did a search on ebay and see they are pretty expensive... just depends on how bad you want one...

IceBox Pro, Cell Phones PDAs items on eBay.com

how thick is the screen that covers the front? Is it the same thickness as the one on the Griffin wave case or thicker?
