Right idea. Horrible execution., Dec 4 2011

Let me start by saying I love Iskin products. The design for this Aura case is in my opinion one of the best out there. So, I bought the white aura case for my white iPhone 4S. Where they made a mistake was in the materials they chose for this white Aura case. Because the sides of the case are made of a rubberized material, which is porous in nature, it easily picks up and retains oils and dirt from your hand turning the sides of the case dirty and impossible to clean.
The second flaw in the design of this white Aura case is when you use your flash while taking pictures, the white plastic reflects the light back into the lens creating foggy images every time. If you're going to use the flash, you must remove the case.
I ended up purchasing the black Aura case because the two flaws are irrelevant for the black one. I tested the camera flash with the black case and both images with and without the case came out the same.
I will end by saying I sent the company an email regarding the design flaws in regards to their white Aura case and have not received any response. As I write this review, they're still selling the white Aura case.
Do not buy the white case until they have figured out how to remedy the aforementioned flaws.

i really liked this case, until i got it. i've had it for two weeks and it works fine, but the sides got really dirty, the sides were white, and now they are blackish, and it doesn't look good, it's not worth anything. dont buy it, i havent tried the graphite colored one, but i think that would be better because the sides are black and you can't see the dirt. this case was very classy, but it gets dirty way too easily and i am heavily dissapointed.

When i saw the pictures of this case I thought that it would be an all-around case for both the front and back of the phone. Instead this case only covers the back of the phone, there is hardly any protection if any at all for the front of the phone. For the high price of the case, I thought it would be something worthwhile considering it was made of aluminum and most cases are made of hardened plastics that can eventually crack your case if you drop it hard enough. Definitely not recommended if you want something to protect your entire phone.
