My Incase Snap Stand Case for iPhone 4S / iPhone 4 review

The Incase Snap Stand Case is just like the Snap Case that Apple offered to iPhone 4 customers in 2010 to help with user grip and antenna problems. That one was clear. This Incase case, however, is black, and it can also stand without a holder.

I did indeed drop my iPhone with that previous case: once onto asphalt and the iPhone had no damage. There was just a small crack in the edge of the Incase Snap Stand Case for iPhone 4S / iPhone 4, suggesting that it properly bore the brunt of the impact. Another time, I dropped the iPhone from about 3 feet onto the floor of an Apple store. That time, there was no damage to either. (I like to stress test my iphone 4 cases.) So while this case may not have the apparent resistance to blunt force trauma that, say, some of the OtterBox cases do, it has proven itself to me.


Things I Liked for Incase Snap Stand Case for iPhone 4S / iPhone 4

Very minimal increase in overall size of iPhone.
One large port for volume and mute; works with 4 and 4S.
Black anti-glare ring around camera lens and flash. A nice touch.
Comes in a beautiful black color.
Includes a stand for watching a movie in landscape mode.
Informal testing shows that, despite its thin layer, it helps isolate the hand from the iPhone antenna seam and improves the signal.
The surface is a bit smooth, not what I’d call grippy, and yet isn’t slippery either. It definitely avoids picking up debris and lint and maintains its good looks.


Precision engineered for lightweight durability, the Incase Snap Stand Case features a built-in stand that lets you prop up your iphone 4 or iphone 4s vertically or horizontally for easy viewing. The folding stand leg opens up easily when you need it and securely snaps closed when you don't. The folding stand is also recessed so it doesn't stick out when closed and maintains a very low profile.
