Griffin Wave Case - iPhone 3G

umbrabellator · 05-23-2008, 12:29 AM

I'm curious if anyone has used the (fairly) new Griffin Wave case.

If so, I'd love to hear your impressions and see some photos if you have any.

Here's a link to Griffin's site: http://www.griffintechnology.com/products/wave

Thank you in advance.

i like the design... but i've grown tired of cases making my iphone feel bloated.

I think I saw this case on iLounge. I am also interested in any reviews or pics! I think the little wave design looks sharp.

I tend to agree, but I can't get away from the sickening feeling that one day I am going to drop this thing. A case will help to reduce or eliminate that possibility.

The phone by itself is just way, way too slippery.

I've owned the thing since iDay and haven't dropped it yet. Knock on wood.

Indeed. And, it is slightly transparent, so you can actually see the phone through the case. I like that!

Me, too. I am planning on giving my husband my iphone when I get v2. This may be a good case for him. Did you buy it?

Not yet. And since no else seems to have purchased it either, I guess I'll be the guinea pig.

I'll let you know what I think of it, and post some pictures when I get the thing.

WOW. You must be a precise person. I'm a klutz and have dropped mine numerous times, now. Once with a case which was open at the top and did leave damage on my phone. Just be sure to get a case like this one that is fully enclosed. I don't mind a little 'bloating' of my phone with a case since it helps me grip the phone when texting or emailing. I hope yours works for you.

I do tend to be pretty precise--although I think a better word for it is asininely anal.

Really, I think what it comes down to is that I saved for six months to purchase this dang phone. No way was I going to put it on a credit card. So I saved, and I saved. I see the value in it because of how hard I worked to obtain it. So, I just tend to be overly careful.

Umbrabellator,

Did you get one of these cases yet?

thanks!
