Screen Shields on iPhone 4

[TwilightGhostZ]

I got my old power support screen shields for my 3GS will they fit on the new iPhone 4?

 

[Jellotime91]

Nope. The phone is longer now. It's definitely not going to fit.

A ziploc baggie, some elastics, and your good to go. Just saved a few bucks too. Use a clean bag.

You shouldn't joke about it - I was in an Apple store a couple months back and someone was using saran wrap on his iPhone. He was in there buying a proper case, but had been using saran wrap for about a week. The Apple employee was trying very hard to keep a straight face.

I can't wait to see what incase is going to design for iPhone 4. I love my slider case on my 3GS.

The iPhone 4 is not longer.
It's shorter in every direction.

iPhone 4 Specs
Height: 4.5 inches (115.2 mm)
Width: 2.31 inches (58.6 mm)
Depth: 0.37 inch (9.3 mm)
Weight: 4.8 ounces (137 grams)

iPhone 3Gs Specs
Height: 4.5 inches (115.5 mm)
Width: 2.4 inches (62.1 mm)
Depth: 0.48 inch (12.3 mm)
Weight: 4.8 ounces (135 grams)

It still wouldn't fit right though, since the top glass has a different shape.
Comparing the pictures, it looks like they shrunk the ear piece to make room for the front-facing camera, which you'd have to cut a hole for. Just not worth it really...

The leaked prototype was "hidden" in a 3G/GS case. I suspect there are many old cases that will work for the 4, and we might actually be able to use our favorite cases after applying a body shield - which will be nice!

Wow, then the home button is definitely smaller.
There's a significant difference of the space between the screen and home button on the iPhone 4 vs 3GS.

Wow, I would have liked to see that.

I use them for the back, but not the front.
I already don't like the orange-peel effect on the back, but wouldn't be able to handle that on the front. Wish they'd figure out a way for it to not do that...

I didn't realize the back look the way that it does, I think I'll be going with the Intellishield.

I just ordered my Intellishield, plus some little bs silicone cases from ebay coming from Hong Kong. I'm more excited about the Intellishield.

I'm hoping that Incase will have cases out right around release date for the iPhone 4. I love my Incase Slider and would REALLY like a new version that will fit my new iPhone

I heart Incase sliders too. I had one on my ipod touch and one for my iphone 3G. Those case are nice, I know I'll be ordering one for my new iphone too. I'm a case whore, I change cases damn near everyday.

The slider case is a beast. I've only dropped my iPhone once (thank god) and it hit the top left of the phone first and then landed on it's face. Neither the slider case nor the iPhone had any sign of damage. Because of the slider case and a belkin screen protecter my iPhone looks like I just took it out of the box. I can't wait to see what incase has in store for this iPhone!!!
