My black phone can see watermark at the glass area when I press hard against the case. Should be 1.

I agree. When there was some condensation in the case, I also could see watermarking.

Which means vinyl wraps like Gmask can use this case. Also, I think Decalgirl also can use on it.

How does it look like on a black iphone? Can fix with decalgirl in the case?

I am confident that Decalgirl can use with this case. The skin is very thin and the case itself leaves some gap in between the phone.

As for how it looks like on a black iPhone, I will take some photos and show them to you..

Edited: I've updated the first page with how the clear case will look when paired with a black iPhone 5.

Show you guys something which I had modified throughout my casing history for my iPhone 5..

First was the original design meant for the Switcheasy Nude. Then I modified it to suit the Desmay case. Now I modify it again as plugs for Power Support Air Jacket. :D

Using a cheap kitchen scale and a digital caliper.

You don't know what you are talking.. It's the best case so far if you want to retain the sleekness of your phone. The edges of the phone can be protected by using any glass screen protectors.

The rest of the thin cases so far don't really match up to it if your are comparing apples to apples.

this is better than switcheasy nude right?

tracking your review threads is very damaging to my pockets :(:s13:

:o Trust me, my pocket hurts as much as you do, and sometimes even more because I buy most of the items I reviewed. You only read and choose which one you should get. =:p

Anyway here's something you might consider and compare:

The Nude -
Pros:
- two connector ports protectors given
- cheaper
- power and volume buttons covered to prevent scruffs on them
- 30 pins lightning adapter friendly
Cons:
- no raised edges at the front
- plastic at the power button area breaks off easily if handled carelessly
- watermarking at the back
- covered volume and power buttons might be pressed accidentally in a tight pocket

AJ -
Pros:
- raised edges at the front left and right sides
- no watermark,
- overall better quality
- better screen protectors given
Cons:
- more expensive
- no connector plugs
- no raised edges at the top and bottom sides
- volume and power button is slightly harder to press than Nude
- harder to remove than Nude
- 30 pins lightning adapter unfriendly

So is AJ friendly for the 30 pins (0.2m) lightning adapter? Cos i read dat the lightning head seems slightly larger den the lightning cable.

If you have the adapter head to the 30pins, it won't work but if you are buying the other one (0.2m), I'm sure it will.

I do not have that cable to test for myself, only the adapter head.
