Hi everyone,
I bought an iPhone 4S about a month ago and haven't yet done anything in the department of buying a case or screen protector. I need to get one and was wondering if anyone had any recommendations. I don't want to spend money that I don't have to, but am willing to spend it if something is truly better.

I googled recommendations for screen protectors but come up with a lot that you can only buy online in the states - I want to, ideally, buy it in person because I'm going away soon and would like to bring it along and use it as my camera.

I'm just not sure if there are better protectors and good cases or what I should get. Any info or advice would be much appreciated!

this is the one i bought. http://www.ebay.ca/itm/6-pcs-3-FRONT-3-BACK-Full-Body-Clear-Screen-Protector-Film-iPhone-4-4S-/130600153953?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item1e68603361

3 sets of front and back protectors for iphone. had to wait just under 2 weeks i think to get it, but for that price, and the quantity it was worth it. easy to install and decent quality.

i told myself i'd NEVER buy 25 dollar screen protectors from futureshop or bestbuy.

look under iphone 4/4S screen protectors

they're cheap and not bad for the price.

if you ever screw up, just order more. LOL first time i ordered, i ordered 5...3 clear 2 matte..and when i screwed up, i just had another to replace.
You also have a choice for full body or just the front.


i also ordered ipad screen protectors.

their customer service is pretty good. (had my screen protectors mail in bent cause of the mail man and they sent me new ones. )

I've done that for playbooks and my galaxy tab, and yes, can't go wrong with the price. <$2 per screen protector, I bought 7 for each device.

However, as for case, I always recommend the otterbox. Best case for physical protection if that's what you're worried about. Defender has a built-on screen protector, commuter comes with a stick-on in the box (might still want to buy extras from monoprice).

yeah, $50 is a fair bit for a case (Can get them for $35 shipped on ebay), but it's worth it.

Thanks! I actually (before I read this) went to Best Buy just for a look today and got the Otterbox. I was hesitant when I saw it weeks ago because I thought I had to pay on top of the cost for a screen protector, then realized they had one. I paid 40$.

Thanks!!!

I just got this one from the source and I LOVE IT. 14.99

http://www.scosche.com/consumer-tech/product/1972

its a case that only covers the sides and it comes with 2 screen protectors for front and back

You dont want a bulky case on ur phone, get this


When i got it i was upset because the sticker on the screen protector was getting stuck and wouldn't come off, but its actually a film that covering the actual protector. so each screen protector is covered by a film on each side.
