$0.01 Default Case Review

On August 24th I posted about the $0.01 cases I had found from Default Case. I ordered one to try out and see how good it was for the cheap price. So far I LOVE the case. It feels like rubber, is durable like plastic, and just looks cool. The case fits perfectly over the phone giving you access to you volume buttons and silent switch. The top and bottom are uncovered to allow full access to the bottom and top of the phone which means any accessories you already have should work flawlessly. The cases have a nice feeling to them that allow you to grip them securely and still add very little to the size of the phone. I think one of the best things is that this case works perfectly with an Invisible Shield. The case just grips the metal lip on the band around the phone which leaves the screen perfectly open for a screen protector. One issue I had with the bands that wrap around the iPhone is that it would push my Invisible Shield off around the edges on the back of the phone. Since this case has the back covered and doesn’t interfere with the screen protector on the front this combination is providing perfect coverage and protection. You can check out my initial post about the cases here to see the pictures of the different cases currently available.

iPhone 4 Cases for $0.01 (Plus $3.99 Shipping) – Default Case

Yesterday while checking out various websites I came across an ad from Default Case. They are working hard to build up a following for their products. They make iPhone 4 cases and they have about 8 different colors. The best thing about this company? They are using their entire advertising budget to subsidize the cost of the cases. The result? They are currently selling their cases for $0.01 (with $3.99 for shipping). This is a very good deal, even competitive with cases found on eBay. It looks like the entire business model for the company is based around the idea of building a strong following for its high quality cases and eventually selling them at $34.99 once they have proven their quality and reliability. It is nice to see a new company take a new approach to generating sales and this company is using most of its advertising money just to sell early adopters cheap cases. They also sell cases for the iPhone 3G and 3GS.

Free iPhone 4 Case from Apple

In case anyone has not yet been made aware, Apple is offering free cases to anyone who buys an iPhone 4 until September 30th, 2010. It is very easy to get your case, all you need to do is download the App which is called “iPhone 4 Case Program”. You run the app which verifies your unique IMEI (so no one can get multiple free cases). After verification you get to choose from the Apple Bumpers, and some other brands. Each case shows a number of pictures of it on the iPhone 4 and also tells you how long it will take to ship and deliver. Once you pick your case and enter your Apple store login information, you are all set and just have to wait for your free case to arrive. You can track your shipment by going to apple.com/store and logging in.
