I've got a speck candyshell on my iPhone 4. I like it enough, and had no issues so far.

Same here. Good protection and no "death grip" (not that I had an issue wit it before). Adds maybe a bit more thickness that I'd like but is a worthwhile tradeoff for the added protection.

Joe most of the metal cases I have seen that are cool are pretty expensive, and I have read so many people say they degrade the signal.

 

I was thinking of buying this case, it's expensive though and many say their signal drops.

I ended up with the apple bumper.

If anyone else wants one our Audi site has them down to 80 each. http://www.audizine.com/forum/showthread.php/404657-iPhone-4-Vapor-aluminum-case-group-buy

I dont know if I have the same Otter case you were talking about but I bought the 3GS and now I'll be getting the iPhone4 from VZN so I dont need my case. You can have it if you want it... I paid $50 for it at Best Buy. It protects the entire thing.. I was impressed.

My wife and I had this case:

Mine started tearing after a couple of months and was becoming loose. My wife never, ever removed hers from the case, and never puts it in her pocket (purse or desk is about it), and the POS stretched out big-time. Garbage case IMO.

 

Is that the one you have, or is it:

Mine is the Defender case, all black #3.

 

It's yours if you want it.. I have no use for it, nor am I looking to make money for it. It's only been used for 2 weeks.
