Is there a crystal clear hard case for the 2K like the XDA2 case

Hey fellas,
Got my hands on the Spigen Ultra Thin Air case. Like the name states, this is an ultra thin case that snaps on the rear of the Nexus 4. It features what Spigen calls a "UV MATTE COATED" backing, but honestly it feels like an glossy finish and is not very grippy either. The ports and cutouts are perfectly aligned and fit well. For the most part the case is up to Spigen standards.
Check out the full video review below for more info;
I'm just doing brief review this to compare the two spigen screen protectors. I have tried both oil- resistance and ultra clarity. Both attract fingerprints but the Oil- Resistance cleans more easily. The difference between the two is not much by a lot.
Right now I am using the anti-glare by Clarivue and I love it. Absolutely no fingerprints and also the screen degradation is not much noticeable. I prefer a little degradation over fingerprints.
As for the cases I use the Ionic case while I am in the house.
Also I use the slim generic case with the clip when I go outdoors. It is pretty decent only thing is it is hard to remove the case if you have no long fingernails. It is also made of hard plastic NOT rubber as it says on ebay.
Cases shown are listed below.

At the discounted price right now, I give it a 4*/5*
PRO:
-large enough lip around the edge to allow for perfect face protection.
-all ports are cut away perfectly with enough room for a moderately sized 3.5mm jack
-home button is still accessible
-entire screen is still usable! (shocking that some cases don't allow the entire screen to be used...like my skyrocket's TPU case_
CON:
-side buttons are covered with TPU, which makes the buttons hard to press.
I had to remove a single star for the TPU covered power and volume buttons. The phone looks amazing with the clear case, almost like glass. The case is said to prevent slippage, though I find the case to be moderately slick. It does however have textured side grips to allow better grip. Overall the case is worth the $7 that it is listed at right now. It fits perfectly and it shipped before the device was released, so it was literally the only case I could purchase that fit my order list. Clear, TPU, thick enough to protect against moderate falls, right thickness lip to protect the face, no hard plastic, good looking, and cheap price. This fit my needs perfectly and I'm glad I purchased it. Over all, I would recommend this to anyone looking for a great TPU case.

Thanks for reading!
I'll also be reviewing two other cases as soon as they arrive. Caseology TPU cases in white (gloss) and white (Matte) as well as Jkase premium TPU matte black.

The Affinity case is Poetic’s clear protection option. It’s made of clear polycarbonate with TPU flanking the outer edges with two vertical strips coming down the back. The addition of the TPU protects the case from being scratched and also protects the phone in the case of a fall. It’s a clever design choice. The case fits very snug, with all cutouts having ample room. The 3.5mm headphone jack cutout is not the widest, so be cautioned if you have a headset with a fat jack. The buttons are very clicky. In fact, all three buttons are clickier than the buttons on the other cases Poetic offers. Gripping the phone is made easy by the raised lines dashing the trim of the case. The Affinity takes the normally boring approach to clear polycarbonate cases, and makes it great.
I want to buy a case for my phone and i found one on amazon but i couldn't make out from the description the drop protection height. Do the clear Silicone gel case covers protect phones from drop protection ? or do i need to buy heavy duty rugged ones ?
I read silicone gel cases protect from minial drops but it doesnt say anywhere what how high is minimal such from 6ft or from a table, etc. ?
I am looking for phone cases that will protect from a 6ft drop in case im on the phone and it slips out of my hand. The phone I have a is a Sony Xperia (theres only a limited range of cases for this type of phonr).
Do you know the drop protection height for these cases ?
they offer some protection, but not so much, and it all depends on which surface they fall on, and on which angle
try the Itskins Spectrum Clear, they seem to be better then most clear cases, still the best thing would be to invest in one from Otterbox or uag
