Our Verdict
This case — which fit all iPhone 4 model — features two component that slide together with your iPhone assure inside .
Everything agree into place with the Luxe Original pillow slip fromiFrogz . This hardshell case for the iPhone 4 issue forth in two parts — a formative top and bottom — that fit around your Apple smartphone .
The top helping of theLuxe Originalmakes up about two - thirds of the case . Slide your iPhone 4 deep down — the Luxe fits both AT&T and Verizon models of the telephone — and then slide the bottom portion into place . There ’s a button on the bottom that latches into the slot on the top part — that push is also what you weight-lift when you desire to bound your iPhone out of the sheath .
The Luxe Original ’s two - part coming is like to what the Proof Duo suit extend , though the bottom piece is much smaller in Proof ’s iPhone 4 oblation . I give the Luxe Original a slight border , because I find its lockup scheme to be a shade more secure . The opening night slit on the side of the Luxe Original is also wide . Not only does it make easier to get at the mass controls and the ringing / silent switch , it also reserve the Luxe Original to easy match any model of iPhone 4 ( though the Proof Duo now fits both models of iPhone 4 as well ) .
A ridge along the front of the Luxe Original maintain your iPhone from coming into impinging with surfaces when you lay it side - down . notice that iFrogz does n’t supply you with a protective film for the screen as some other case Creator do .
The $ 30 Luxe Original comes in eight coloration combinations . In addition to an all - bootleg model , you could also opt to have the top part come in a multifariousness of colors . The dissimilar feel will sure strike iPhone 4 owners looking to put their own unique cast on the case , but the Luxe Original ’s true appeal lie in its unattackable , easy - to - forgather fit .
