UPDATE 11/2/2010: Since doing the video I stumbled on a bunch of reviews and comments by owners of the Element Case Vapor and found at least the first batch of cases severely blocking cell phone reception, in some cases killing it altogether. A YouTube commenter had a great idea to test the Vapor 007's ability to block reception using the infamous Field Test. I did a quick Field Test in my bedroom, a place where there is very bad reception but I still don't drop calls there. Here's my unscientific results:
- With Vapor 007 and Carbon Fiber Back Plate: -110 dB
- With just Vapor 007 bumper: -100 dB
- With no case: -100 dB
