Question: I have been looking for an Aluminum bumper for my Verizon iPhone. I found one that I like but is only sold for the AT&T version of the iPhone. I have been told there is a 3mm difference is size bewteen the two versions. Not sure if that was meant for length or width. Does anyone know this for sure?

Thanks

The only case-related difference I know of is that the mute button is moved slightly farther from the top of the phone. Might be 3mm, not sure. So if the mute button hole in the ATT case is not large enough, it might not accommodate the VZ button position.

EDIT: here is a picture; it looks like the volume buttons are also moved slightly:

Yea, I knew about the mute button. But this company was saying that the size of the case was different by 3mm. If it just the mute opening I can mill that out to fix that. I just wondered if anyone knew for sure. Thanks

I'm looking for a case like this. What does your case look like? I might take it off your hands if its close.

That is a nice looking case. Not really what I'm loking for and I also noticed that the add says it's only for the AT&T GSM version iPhone. Not sure what's up with that.

yeah it does say that...but it does fit though, i have tried...maybe that means the other one you want will fit too? good luck
