BUYER BEWARE- a cheap way to ruin your brand new iPhone 6
This case appears beautiful but don't be fooled. It's not a bargain, it's a booby trap.
I buy phone cases likes some women buy shoes- I have bought countless over the years, and many of them under $10. So this is not a case of high expectations from a diva- this is a huge complaint from someone who has has all ranges of experience from all quality and price ranges of phone cases. And this case is by far one of the worse.
Unlike similar cases that are made out of pre-colored, molded plastic this is simply a plain white case that has been spray painted. Why does this matter, even if it looks pristine?
In this case, the fact that's it's spray-painted afterward instead of molded from colored plastic means that it can mark up your phone. The paint can rub off on contact- and it sure did. My white bumper on my phone (the small matte white line between the aluminum body and the glass face) is now permanently stained coral - after being on the phone for only 20 mins! I have attached photos of the paint job.
Next, the case is snug- far too snug. I nearly broke my phone both times I tried to get the case off. It goes on tight and smooth, but will not budge when removing. I literally had to use tools and an absurd amount of force. I tried giving the case another go, since it had already stained me brand new phone anyway and there are now - as if it couldn't get worse- there are noticeable friction scratches perfectly in line with where the cases edges had been.
This case seemed to have a lot of potential and I have owned similar ones in the past for other iPhones. But I am deeply disappointed in the one and regret that I ever got it- and I am livid that as a result of a garbage case, my 2 week old phone is already stained and beat up.
Worst part? My little brother bought me the case as a gift, trying to get me something beautiful while still being responsible with his money. And now he feels bad for something that's not even his fault!
I will try to take photos of my phone. But that's a bit tricky being that my phone IS my camera..
