Hi all....

I had a client show me his Iphone cover today, which is very different to all the box standards from the regular suppliers, I presume they have a sublimated fabric insert.

Does anyone know of a UK supplier of this type of case?

Thanks in advance for any help:biggrin:

There's only one way to find out :smile: the one I saw looked worn, but looked like it still had plenty of life, it was also a dark colour. I do not own an i phone, but as far as I can tell, the covers are quite a 'disposable' product and I know people that change them on a regular basis.

I would like to have a go with one, maybe a vinyl print would work...

The cost of the case shown was £43. I wouldn't be changing it very often at that price

They are by speckproducts. I was very impressed with the one I saw, and yes Zazzle price very highly, although the product looks more expensive than your regular dye subbed cover.

I have had a comment about the hole for camera on the regular sublimation cases leaving a white area on images. Theses spec covers have a large area for the lens, which looks like a good idea.

There was a guy selling that style of case on ebay recently. The white area on the images only happened on white iPhone covers. If you look now, all of the suppliers are selling the white cases with black trim around the camera holes. This is because the white trim around the camera was causing light reflection and that was what was effecting the photos.

Thanks for the positive reply John. I will check what colour rim I had the issue with, although the white cases I use at present do have black rims.

Was the guy selling on ebay selling blanks or finished cases?

Thanks again..
