Title: Ipad 2 Iphone 4S Question
Post by: DaveB@Vagbremtechnic on October 30, 2011, 09:31:42 pm
Good Evening Chaps (Or ladies with the white Iphones)

Ive just purchased a new Ipad2 and a 4S, my Ipad 1 had the proper apple hard case which was perfect as you had to "slip" the Ipad into it and protected the front and rear, the ipad2 smart case doesnt protect the rear of the ipad.

I need a case for the 2 like I had on the 1 - any suggestions......

Need a case and screen cover for the 4S as well - any suggestions......

Prob been done to death but there were 64 pages of this crap on ebay

I've gone for same old Zagg skin front and back for the 4s probably add a bumper from apple or one of those metal bumpers with the 2 grub screws that keep it attached.  If you order the Zagg online you can have it printed with a photo etc, I have just bought off the shelf scratch proof clear.

Mili and morphie cases are ace if you use the phone a lot, protect it well and give you a secon battery.

The ultimate protective case (or one of) IMO is the otter box defender

The other end of the scale is a few packs of clear protectors front and back off eBay for dir cheap and an apple bumper or even 'fake' apple bumper

On the iPad 2 I use an Apple Smart Cover on the front and an Amazon sources siliicon shell for the rear  :happy2:

Not found anything I like yet for the 4s so have got a Zagg shield thing for the front and back for now.

For all out protection on the 4s go for a Speck full cover and a screen protector!  :happy2:

On my 4 I have an Incase snap on chrome cover plus a front skin from the Apple store.

I also still use the sock from my Osir 3G case.  :smiley:

Not the cheapest solution, but it works.
I ended up getting rid of it in the end though, as I didn't like the smart covers.
At the moment I use this instead:



Along with this when I want to carry it around:

For my iphone i use the screen protectors from 02, they are non greasy and work really well. Case wise i just picked up a cheap one off ebay for £2 with a black back, like the phone!
