Call otterbox, the first batch of all the new silicones is funky... My white one did the same thing but the one from my iPhone 4 from a year ago is still white as can be... They'll send you out new ones for free of the current batch if you call them ...

Yes definitely call them. They have awesome customer service. I've found the silicone skins on the new ones to be much better quality than the older ones.

Wow... so many Defender and Commuter cases. I have and like very much the Otterbox Reflex case. Great protection, not too bulky, easy on and off, and recharge without removing.

I have the Navy/Blue Defender case. I have been looking at some others because of the bulk. I do love the feeling of having my iPhone protected though.

i'm going to need to call them then. I've been using my white silicone with pink shell this week and already the white is starting to like, yellow up or something:eek: it looks nasty !! :( i'm actually going to try to wash it first and see where it goes from there;)


(plus i just got my teal luxe lean in today so i immediately put that on:D)


edit: well, i used one of those heavy duty orange utility wipes that have the little grippy thingies on them, and the white came clean:)

I'm about to comet my first one or use bleach... nothing works on it

Cleve, the mutli purpose wipes i used that worked are called "polywater grime-away multi-purpose" cleaning wipes. they're orange in color and have like a bumpie-grippy surface so you can scrub with them. If your able to get your hands on a container of them i'd highly suggest them--my white silicone practically glows in the dark now, LOL :eek: :p :D

really? What kind of case do you use BLiNK? Or any at all?

this is what i use: http://forums.imore.com/iphone-accessories/209575-zero-5-0-5mm-ultrathin-iphone-4-a.html#post1699623

for work only. after that i am bare assed! crazy i know but it just "feels" better

i get the whole concept that people want to protect their phones so the more durable the case the chances of protection are increased. i have had my 4 for over a year now and have not dropped it once. my philosophy is if i do drop it without a case and there's damage, i can afford to repair or replace

my thought process may change when i get the "next" iPhone but i'm sure eventually it'll naked too!

Though I love my Magpul Field Case, I'm toying with the thought of going naked. I'm typically VERY careful with my devices so it's feasible for me to do so.

Looove the look of this case BLiNK, in pink:D this is VERY similar to iFrogz ultra lean. This one you have is .5mm thick, where as the ultra lean is .8mm. I actually have the ultra in snow(white) & love the feel of my phone when I use it:) it almost feels naked without being naked. I'm just not that daring, lol. I do still love using defenders, iFrogz luxe lean & speck cs's as well;)
