Always kind of liked this one

the case with the holes looks like a connect 4 board

pro tip your phone is smoething you are gonna throw away in 2-3 years, no need to bother w/ a case for it

乒乓, Friday, 27 September 2013 16:10 (ten years ago) link

I agreed with this logic right up until I shattered the screen on my phone and had to have it replaced

smang culture (DJP), Friday, 27 September 2013 16:11 (ten years ago) link

I sell mine after two years tho and the better it looks the more its worth xp

Me & Mahomies (Spottie_Ottie_Dope), Friday, 27 September 2013 16:12 (ten years ago) link

i haven't actually seen a screen shatter in person so i dunno if cases actually protect a phone from having its screen shattered, i dropped my 3gs probably at least 30 times in its life, have dropped my 5 like 10 times at least, never broke a screen

乒乓, Friday, 27 September 2013 16:12 (ten years ago) link

i just flush my iphone down the toilet when im done with it so i dont really care how it looks

乒乓, Friday, 27 September 2013 16:13 (ten years ago) link

Got $300 plus for my 4 after 27 months of owning it.

Me & Mahomies (Spottie_Ottie_Dope), Friday, 27 September 2013 16:13 (ten years ago) link

i also bought applecare which lets u get a replacement for 'accidental damage' for $50, up to two times, i think

乒乓, Friday, 27 September 2013 16:13 (ten years ago) link

mine fell off of a window sill and landed flat on its front, completely shattering the screen and rending it almost unusable without making tiny lacerations in your fingertips; it was the first time I'd ever broken a phone screen and it made me so angry that I almost forgot about my prodigious hangover

smang culture (DJP), Friday, 27 September 2013 16:14 (ten years ago) link

lets suppose you can only get $200 for an iphone 4 w/ scuffed up edges, that's $100 divded by 27 months, or 4 dollars a month, thats how much it costs to use your iphone 4 w/o a case and to feel its sexy glass against your skin....mmm......

乒乓, Friday, 27 September 2013 16:15 (ten years ago) link

haha alright

Me & Mahomies (Spottie_Ottie_Dope), Friday, 27 September 2013 16:17 (ten years ago) link

i use the most lo pro case on the market anyway (incipio feather) and refuse to put anything on the glass cos it feels nice so i get it.

i know people irl with cases like these

乒乓, Friday, 27 September 2013 16:18 (ten years ago) link

the only argument i can see for using a case is that steve jobs never used a case and he got pancreatic cancer, so if u don't want pancreatic cancer u should use a case, otherwise if u don't care about cancer like me go caseless

乒乓, Friday, 27 September 2013 16:20 (ten years ago) link

oh i forgot to mention steve jobs got pancreatic cancer and DIED, so if u don't wanna die u should get a case

乒乓, Friday, 27 September 2013 16:21 (ten years ago) link

my ipad just has a smart cover but i've def used an ipod case before

markers, Friday, 27 September 2013 16:24 (ten years ago) link

Bulky cases are so lame its true

Me & Mahomies (Spottie_Ottie_Dope), Friday, 27 September 2013 16:25 (ten years ago) link

Just ordered one tho cos i wanna live obv

my cat's new idea to get me out of bed is to shove my phone off the nightstand

fell... or jumped?

socki (s1ocki), Friday, 27 September 2013 18:22 (ten years ago) link

I dropped my old iphone at least 50 times and the one time I didn't have it in a case the glass shattered immediately; I got my new one on Monday and the 24 hours of naked phone before the case showed up was a period of constant terror.

if there isnt a retina mini this year then i don't know what

the iphone 5s cases fit the iphone 5 btw, if any iphone 5 owners are interested in a fifty buck case that smells of isopropyl alcohol leather

obi wankin' obi (Autumn Almanac), Saturday, 28 September 2013 01:13 (ten years ago) link

I actually kind of like the blue leather case

"Max's Original Starship" Vol. 3 (sunny successor), Saturday, 28 September 2013 01:22 (ten years ago) link

they certainly feel nicer than any of the third party cases i've looked at, and fit the phone pretty well (as you'd expect)

obi wankin' obi (Autumn Almanac), Saturday, 28 September 2013 01:23 (ten years ago) link

I have an orange rubber case that's rounded, but it's not bulky. I like colors.

Mavericks is pretty incremental but seems like a nice update so far. Safari seems faster than Chrome again, for the minute

beautifully, unapologetically plastic (mh), Saturday, 5 October 2013 16:26 (ten years ago) link

Safari on an iPad 2 running the latest iOS doesn't load embedded youtube videos on ILX and several other pages. As the page loads, there'll be a black box that appears for a second or so where the embed should go, but instead of the embed appearing it goes white/blank. Is that a bug or do I have to enable something? No problem with the same objects/pages on an iPhone 5 also running the latest iOS. Never had that problem before he upgrade to iOS 7.

Also I catch and pull up the bottom of the screen menu several times an hour while trying to scroll, which is annoying. Can that menu be disabled just within Safari?

Plasmon, Saturday, 5 October 2013 17:12 (ten years ago) link

i think you have to disable it in all apps

"Max's Original Starship" Vol. 3 (sunny successor), Sunday, 6 October 2013 21:50 (ten years ago) link

ordered mine from vz website on the friday they were available and got it this past friday

I'd have probably gotten one from a carrier by now, but I've chosen to buy an unlocked one and be a carrier nomad. probably overrated.

beautifully, unapologetically plastic (mh), Sunday, 6 October 2013 21:56 (ten years ago) link

really not much mind blowing abt the 5S. fingerprint unlock is awesome. response time is snappy but as usual a lot of what you do on the phone is bottlenecked at places other than the processor (FB, youtube, etc).

on the negative front it seems to have trouble with signal, particularly when leaving a wifi area and having to switch to cellular. my 4 handles this more gracefully, hopefully this is something an OS update will fix.
