Cygnett Aviator iPhone 4/4S Case Review

Others/Miscelleneous by stefan @ 2013-03-11

The Aviator is another cool looking iPhone 4/4S case from Cygnett, built from two separate components which allow the phone to be dockable, by only removing the bottom component. The case is available in two color flavors (silver and blue) and can be found online for about 31 Euros.

A Closer Look Contd.

The top and bottom sides are colored differently and sport a brushed aluminum finish:

 

 

 

The first step of the installation would be to insert the phone into the top component of the case; here we have met with a problem: the top side of the case holds the phone really tight and the top frame touches and presses a little against the screen protector. If we have a screen protector which is not bubble free on one of the sides, the case will eventually bend the protector during the slide movement and we’ll have to reapply it or replace the screen with a new, bubble free one. This situation can be also applied when we have a screen protector which did not have enough adhesive on one of the sides or in the corners, so no matter how much we would press on it with the squeegee, it still would not stick to the screen properly:

 

 

 

The bottom side attaches much easier:

 

 

 

With the case fully installed, we have also taken some photos of the lateral sides and openings:

 

 

 

 

 

 

The case bottom and top combine beautifully and we can see nice contrast between the blue and grey brushed aluminum:

 

 

 

For the camera and flash LED we have a cut-out with a rubber finish ring:
