    I got a bumper case from China that claimed it was a real one. I am concerned though because the case really is not white, the rims of it are very grey in color. It also started tearing apart at one seam because of my skin protector around the sides made the case stretch out. I really need to know if it's fake or not so I can leave bad feedback or request a refund.

    It's probably fake.

    If it's from China, it's most likely fake!

    Fake, my friend has a real Apple bumper and it's pretty durable. And doesn't have that discoloration you described.

    Definitely fake. I only order stuff from major retailers (the Apple website or BestBuy, etc.).

    That's where American products are assembled, not made.

    I'd say it's real. But does it really matter?
