Noticeable difference. If I were using my iPhone for product photography that might be nice, but because the camera isn't that great I'm not sure how many people use it. There might be more than I'm aware of. It is great that it is built into a case and that you can slide it out of the way when you're not using it. I'm impressed, but I'm still not planning on buying it.

Heh....

The time is different on the watch in the two photographs. Seems to me it wasn't the same photo that was "re-touched"--unless, of course, the software can alter time and/or images as well...

Of course the times are different, they are two separate photos: one without the case and one with the case. The clarifi doesn't "re-touch" photos, it is just a lens that allows for better close-up shots.
