Looks nice. Here's a link: http://www.iskin.com/fuze_overview.html.

The only thing that I don't like about these kind of cases is that they so completely cover the phone, that its beauty is lost. I use a case, but I like to use one that is minimal, so I can see as much of the phone as possible.

This one sure does look protective though.

looks nice. i'm a big fan of iSkin, but was never interested in the Revo due to its being made of soft silicon... too sticky to be pulling in and out of pockets, and i think the edges would flip out easily trapping debris.

but this looks promising... i may get one once i know if i'll be getting iphone2 or not...

I'm a big fan of the original iSkin Revo, because it was so protective. I definitely want to check out the Fuze for my new iPhone 3G.

I got it for v1...

and my review is as follows..

Would NOT recommend the iSkin Fuze..

Pros:
Protects all of the phone from scratches ect..
... yeah that's about it..

Cons:
Difficult to take apart once you snap it together.
Plastic very weak, Mine has already started to crack on the top.
Paint, at least I am guessing it's paint.. is already flaking off of the front.
The hole to turn the phone to silent is way to small, and if you have large fingers.. it's very hard..

i am going to try and get my money back..

for 50 bucks i would expect a much better case.


i am going to look at this case..

That iFrogz case looks like an exact replica of my Seidio case, which I think is far superior. If your looking at the iFrogz, you should Google Seidio cases first.
