if you need a dollar-store rubber to make it usable, you are doing it wrong.

genius fix for a (once) genius device]]>Jul 1st 2010 10:09AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/01/iphone-4-gets-a-1-alternative-to-pricey-bumpers/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/01/iphone-4-gets-a-1-alternative-to-pricey-bumpers/

usually in phones, the band comes into picture when the phones back cover becomes loose due to over usage over the years.

a brand new phone compared to the leica camera and looks from the digital future as per Josh, wrapped in some ugly ass rubber band is hardly a win

it is called SUCK UP ~]]>Jul 1st 2010 10:10AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/01/iphone-4-gets-a-1-alternative-to-pricey-bumpers/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/01/iphone-4-gets-a-1-alternative-to-pricey-bumpers/
Its called rubber. If you want those buttons to come through, the band will probably snap.

I've heard that holding your phone left-handed is a feature.

At least someone has some common sense. It won't matter though. The haters will hate and claim anyone who says otherwise is a "fanboy."

I can replicate the "issue" on my iPhone 4 if I try to but have yet to experience any actual problems when USING the phone like a human being. Yes, even in my left hand... I know... crazy.]]>Jul 1st 2010 10:53AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/01/iphone-4-gets-a-1-alternative-to-pricey-bumpers/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/01/iphone-4-gets-a-1-alternative-to-pricey-bumpers/Jul 1st 2010 10:55AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/01/iphone-4-gets-a-1-alternative-to-pricey-bumpers/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/01/iphone-4-gets-a-1-alternative-to-pricey-bumpers/
The bands in the picture actually look nice. But what I dont get is this - iPhone4 uses smugly claim that their phone is the "thinnest" on the market, yet with this all these mandatory bumpers and geegaws on their phones it probably makes it fatter than the rest of the "oh-so-fat" phones...heck after sometime it might start looking more obese than the N900 (with 10% of the capability)! ;-) ]]>Jul 1st 2010 10:55AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/01/iphone-4-gets-a-1-alternative-to-pricey-bumpers/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/01/iphone-4-gets-a-1-alternative-to-pricey-bumpers/Lol don't tell me other phones didn't have problems... It's just a phone. My incrediable had plastic separating from the screen out of the box, reception issues vs my coworkers droid, and touch screen unresponsiveness...

My iPhone 4 feels less gimped than my HTC did... HTC cannot be compared in built quality against Apple there is no way. Nokia yes but not HTC and only older and more expensive Nokias. ]]>Jul 1st 2010 11:07AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/01/iphone-4-gets-a-1-alternative-to-pricey-bumpers/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/01/iphone-4-gets-a-1-alternative-to-pricey-bumpers/
