i got the commuter case today from iMore store...it has the made in china silicone layer but its all warped and wonk. I put it on the phone and it was not touching the phone in a few places around the screen. I don't think it will ever get better so I took it right back off and Im going to send it back. I liked it, though after having this matte candy shell I think the hard part was REALLY slick.
Ame, I had the same exact issue when i tried the pink/white commuter a few mths ago, and i purchased mine from an authorized Verizon Wireless shop. I actually hated the commuter - it seems very poorly made IMO.
Mine went right back the same exact day within an hour of purchase!
Update on BookBook. My first one was approaching a year old and the phone was sliding up in the case and messing with the proximity sensor. I emailed Twelvesouth and sent the old one back for exchange. The new one doesn't cover the top front at all, above the PS, and the tab that holds the phone in place is longer and thicker. Now I love it again!! The whole process took 1 week from email. They're awesome!
Is it definately better than the original one. May have to gab one.
iPhone.
MUCH better! I wish I'd taken a picture of the original one I had for comparison. I'll snap a picture of the new one and add it to this post, shortly.
I'd like to see it also Brin I know the few Apple shops by me stopped selling them and about 3wks ago the Apple store had them on discontinued discounted pricing-I'm guessing that was the "old" version. I've been interested in getting one myself because I like the look of it. I wonder though, would my phone with the zebra skin fit into it?
I also went directly onto the TwelveSouth site last night, but I wouldn't know if the ones they have are the updated version or the older one. So I didn't order one.
The only thing I continue to dislike about the BookBook is that you have to remove your phone to use the camera.

Agreed. I'm rethinking the idea of modifying mine. I think sliding it out to take pictures is what caused the flap to weaken and thus my sensor issues.
I've thought about the whole camera thing too. In all honesty, I really don't use my camera much at all, so in a nutshell this wouldn't be an issue for me. I can see how opening and refolding that flap down would cause the leather to loosen over a bit of time. I really like the look of the case, wallet, what ever you wanna call it lol. The ONLY problem I have now is I've gotten to the point within the past couple of days that I don't even have a bumper on my phone at all anymore. When I put the zebra skin on my phone I had the bumper on for just a few hours and then removed it completely and haven't put it back on since. I've gotten very comfortable using the phone caseless now a days, so IDK how much I'd actually use the BookBook at this point.
At any rate, I'm still deciding if I'd like to get it.....we shall see
Thanks for posting the pics also Brinda!!
