The hardest part of this stylish case is opening up the packaging
and that's probably it. This new case from Belkin comes with a shock
absorbent plastic case to protect your iPhone 4 with three colours
available that include Vivid Blue, Royal Purple and Clear.
To
install the iPhone, all you do is slide the iPhone 4 into the case
and presto, it's ready to be used. Like all good Belkin cases, you
still have access to all the functionality of your iPhone 4 from
buttons to docks but this is where a few issues come into play.
The only issue I had with the Grip Vue was that some buttons
required a little bit more pushing than without the case. It does
take some time to retrain your brain for this but the good thing
about the plastic which covers the buttons is that after some time,
it does become easier to push. Apart from that, it's quite a stylish
looking case that lets you stand out.
Features
- Thin-TPU case protects without
bulk
- Flexible and grippable
- Slim, form-fitting design
- Impact- and scratch-resistant
In
conclusion, the Grip Vue is a very good looking case that does offer
additional protection to your iPhone 4 on all sides. As mentioned,
some of the buttons are a little hard to push but unlike some cases
for my iPhone 3GS, if I had plastic to protect the buttons, I wish I
did because my old iPhone is quite scratched because of this lack of
a feature. It's unfortunate that the buttons are a little sturdy to
push with the case on but for the protection it does offer, it's
definitely above the rest and looks good!
