iPhone 4/4S case & screen protector brands — list

haha... just emailed Steve Jobs with a link to this forum, just in case he needs a list of suppliers and all that.

Somehow think he could do with one perhaps for Apple's case offer coming end of week, but doubt you'll see him around here saying, "Thanks user, we could really do with this right now, just what we needed". :smileyvery-happy:

They have two silicon/rubber cases (so far) and a front screen protector. Not clear on if they have more designs coming or not though?

iPhone 4/4S case & screen protector brands — list

I've ordered a leather pouch from Ikonicedge a couple of weeks ago, but it was just a pre order because New Zealand is not getting the iPhone 4 till the 30 July.

Unlike some manufacturers who make their pouches/cases purely from the iPhone 4's dimensions, Ikonicedge do not do this.

This is the reply I received back from them, when I enquired about the availability of their pouches.

We always obtain the actual product (in this case the iPhone 4) first so we can laser measure its shape, corners etc to allow us to produce the best hugging fit. Some case suppliers produce cases before they actually have the iPhone. We find it's best to have the iPhone so we can try it and test it under normal day to day use first.


I worked out the price at the time I ordered, was around £30 this is including including the delivery from New Zealand. I paid around £27 for a Knomo leather pouch from the Apple webiste, and this one was not what I would call top quality leather.

The Ikonicedge looks like (and sounds like from the various reviews/testimonials, it is made of top quality leather and is a top quality product.

I had considered the SENA, but looking at past reviews on them, the durability of them seemed to be an issue sometimes.

I bought a Gear 4 Thin Ice a couple of days ago (couldn't be bothered to wait for the free case, particularly as I'd feel wrong asking for one as my phone doesn't have a problem).

Odd that the Gear4 web site says they have no cases as they definitely do! Got mine in HMV.

It's clear plastic, slightly flexible, holes for silence and volume switches, top and bottom mostly non-existent to allow access and sides have a gentle grip on the top metal edge so the entire front of the phone is free of case.

I prefer a clear case as it shows off the phone but affords protection. I think the Belkin Micra may be similar to this one.
