Element Case shows off Vapor for iPhone 4
TiPb readers will remember Element Case for their original Liquid case for iPhone and the Joule stand for iPad, and you just had to know they wouldn't sit out something as sexy as iPhone 4, right? Enter Vapor:
Available in a wide array of custom color options and custom features, the Vapor consists of a solid, CNCd aluminum frame made from aircraft grade metals lined with a new, shock-absorbent liner material to protect and stylize.
And yes, it'll also insulate the iPhone 4 antenna band to prevent any attenuation-related issues.
We'll be getting our geeky little hands on some soon, and thanks to their usual awesomeness, doing a give away just for you. In the meantime, in joy the pics!
UPDATE; Element Case just sent us one more pic, an exclusive look at the cutouts. Check it out below.

THESE GUYS ARE CROOKS! I bought one of these, then after it KILLED my signal I contacted them and shipped it back. I eventually got an email saying they issued a refund, but after 2 weeks I still don't have my money. I have emailed themseveral times but get no response. You work hard for your money, don't give it away for nothing. I have a feeling I lost $80+ and don't even have the signal killing case to show for it.
So I purchased the AR-15 version of the element series. It's essentially identical to the Vapor 4, but $20 more ($100) and cooler looking. I went through a lot to finally get my hands on one. I made these sacrifices and spent a lot of money in order have what I saw as the best functional solution to protect my precious phone. And all I can say is that I am truly saddened by the level of disappointment I feel owning this thing. The site boasts two important points I'm going to call BS on, so pay attention!!!! One, the company claims the case only supports apple approved charging cables. This is false. The case only supports the iPhone 4 cable. THAT'S IT!!!! Two, the company also claims the case promotes better signal strength. FALSE!!!!! The case actually chops your signal to roughly HALF of what it should be, if not drop the signal entirely. So to those of you considering the purchase of one of these cases from Element, let me be clear. DO NOT BUY AN ELEMENT VAPOR 4 CASE FOR THE IPHONE 4!!!! THEY SUCK, AND YOU WILL HATE YOURSELF FOR EVER BUYING ONE!!!!
To Rob, If you made your purchase thru Pay Pal, give them a call. That is how I finally got my money back. The people who run Element Case are either total idiots or just out and out crooks. You won't get anywhere dealing with them directly. Good Luck
COMPLETE DESIGN FLAW! THEIR PHOTO ARE PHOTOSHOP ENHANCED! I BOUGHT ALL 3 LIMITED CASE FOR $360 ! THESE CASES GAVE ME ZERO SIGNAL !
I ve waited for long time for this case, there was no customer service, it felt cheap . Save yourself money and don't get this case!
I wish I would've researched these reviews before I wasted my money on the Vapor case. Talk about design flaws, I couldn't even attach the charging cable to the phone due to the case's slot being too small. I am literally laughing at myself for falling for the slick marketing on their website. The case feels like plastic and the "carbon" backing they sell for $20 is just a shiny sticker. This is really a case of "Buyer Beware!"
They only cost less than 25 US in China. I bought a whole bunch of them to use and give away as gift to friends. Never had any signal problems though.
Great goods from you, man. I've understand your stuff previous to and you're just extremely magnificent. I really like what you've acquired here, certainly like what you're saying and the way in which you say it. You make it enjoyable and you still take care of to keep it smart. I can not wait to read much more from you. This is actually a wonderful site.

The case destroyed my signal, damaged my phone and to get a refund was a nightmare. They wouldn't return my emails. I had to hunt down a phone number and call it repeatedly until I'm sure they got sick of hearing it ring and picked up.
Their contact info phone number: (650) 486-1353
I wanted to buy one of them, but thank you guys, you saved my money:) I will never buy it...KUUUUUUUUUULL
