not cheap though. should be around $60 USD
USD 60 is still about 3 times lower than the overly advertised sector 5. i would rather take Alumacase for that matter. lol :)

LOL. Genuine CF are known to cause signal issues, major or minor. It has already been proven in the iphone 4. So elementcase chose to ignore this issue & carry on to the 5? then when majority of customers complain they shortchange them with 1 piece of back plate? How nice for one of the most expensive iphone cases out there?

IMO just wait for the Sword bumper like what some bros mentioned. :)

Thank god I cancelled my order thanks to their overly snobbish customer service support. Now waiting for Deff Cleave to hit the shores liao.

Mini Review of the OEM Specks Candybar for iPhone 5 which was from from Qoo10:

The front of the package of the case looks like this. It came with a protective plastic to prevent the scruffs on the new case:

The back:

The contents:

The details. The insides are sporting some rubbery material:

Vs Tones:

Noticed the depth of the raised edge on the front of the case. The iPhone in the photo sports a Glas.tR

Compatible with the 30 pins Lightning Adaptor by Apple:

Thoughts:
The raised edges are made of rubbery material thus may not be suitable for tight pockets like jeans. The surface area of back of the case is slightly wider than the front thus people with small hands may not find it comfortable to grip. Definitely no issues in protecting the phone from accidental drops.

Is the lower part (near the speaker) that strip of rubber that protects the bottom loose? i know the poetic case that part quite.. flimsy.

hmm those buy sector 5 did ur receive this mail ?

To Sector 5 FE Customer…we have identified a potential issue with our iPhone 5 carbon fiber
backplate, and we will not be shipping this item with your Sector 5 FE. Please note that you will still
receive our Gun Metal color ultra-suede backplate to protect your iPhone 5.

Saw from MacRumors someone complained and got a refund of 15 USD plus a coupon code in which he can buy it again once released at 15 USD. One thing is, he needs to return the one shipped with his case.

EC rushed it without testing the whole package - including the Zipper case which I read is unusable.
