So today I receive my Clear Smoke Snap On Case from DAYDEAL.COM on Ebay. I always like the smoke look on my phones when purchasing a case, so my decision was no different this time around. The case overall does not restrict the phone functions or slide out keyboard. Phone is protected well from the top and bottom, sides vary because of the large volume key on the phone. The case is more design to protect your phone from scratches, nicks, and knee height drops. Personally I believe major drops like, phone falling when leaving your car, might be pushing it. Case does fits well onto the phone, so you don't have to worry about it falling apart when in use.
Overall I give case a 8/10 base on value, minor protection, and overall design and look on the phone.
I have posted some pictures on my gallery using image shack, see below.

Thank you
Thanks for including the pics!
I just have a couple questions:
How much bulk does it feel like it adds to the phone?
Does it collect a lot of finger prints?

I can answer your second question without a problem, I work doing vinyl manufacturing so grease, dust, and dirt are a daily routine for my phone. So far it has pass the test with two days under these conditions, NO PRINTS, scratches, or stains. Adds no bulk what so whatever, which is a plus. Only complaint is that it's really hard to take off, but that's a good thing also.
Where you get it?
Edit:nvm found out

I have the clear version of this... well the place where I got my phone provided me one for free. It's pretty decent for free... as with all cases it'll make your phone look prettty lame but that's the price for protection.
Easy put on, the part that is on the screen is easily taken off but the part attacked to the keyboard and battery are a little harder.
Just got this from daydeal and got to say its fantastic for the price better than the seidio one I had for my milestone thanks op
Just received mine today. Most cases look pretty stupid but I think the "smoke" appearance to this unit actually make the whole thing look pretty nice.
Have the same (?) model and my experinence is the same. The phone feels really protected, but adds bulk and makes it look a bit silly. Almost feels like my old SE P990.
Still it fits snuggly and can't think of a better solution if one wants more than scratch protection.
We're toying with the idea. Would you want this for your device? Price would be firm at $4.
We originally gave the front piece a try for the Nexus 4. The slight curvature on the right and left sides of the face mean that the skin would have to end around 1.5-2mm short on each side. This also means there is no possibility for full bevel. The front skin would be split into individual top and bottom pieces. If we find an overwhelmingly positive response, we'll release this within a week. All of the cutouts, as well as the outer limits of each top and bottom piece would (obviously) be as precise as possible, with as much coverage as is physically possible without any possibility of the skin peeling up over time.

I would but personally I would want a screen protector as well. Maybe a hybrid piece with a screen protector option to the front skin? I have the same issue with the Nexus 7, but I cut my own screen protector.

No chance for a screen protector. Sorry about that man, it's just that it requires a 100% dust-free facility (something we don't have right now). Even a single speck of dust on a given unit would = defective.

Yes! Do it! I'd buy 2 right off the bat!
I would give that a try. The front of the nexus 4 has slight curve to it so no clue how the skin would fair on a curved surface, there would be a chance for it to flap off but knowing how strong the back skin sticks, front should be fine. Also one thing to take in consideration, many people use screen protectors for the front. Those who would have those pricy ones would bail on the front skins. Yes you could cut the screen protectors but I don't know if people would want to do that. Another thing, there are various cases for the phone, I'm guessing most people just use a bumper, since the skin would be offsetted on all sides by 1.5-2 mm it should be fine. I'm not saying its not a good idea, just a few things to take in consideration. You guys could give it a whirl and see how it fairs before you keep it on your site officially. Then again, at 4 bucks it is awesome.

No please don't! Dbrand is known for not only their precision, but how closely it covers the entire surface. Makes the skin blend in with the phone so much that it starts looking like a part of it. The front skin, as it would not go over the curves will look like a patch over the screen. Take a look at how bad the dry application SPs look because they cannot go over the curved edges compared to their wet counterparts. A front skin thus would be completely contrary to what you guys strive for.
Not only that, but since one of the main features of a nexus is the smooth, buttonless screen that aids swipe gestures, a front screen would hinder the movement. Also, and this might just be me, front skins cheapen the look of the phone and make the screen look smaller.
Again, this is just my .02
I'd be willing to try it :thumbup:

What would you do about the LED light? Then there are other cutouts like the sensors and stuff which would make it ugly in my opinion and so its a no from me..

It would be a little piece on the top and then a little one on the bottom? I don't think that would look very nice. Any pictures?
I'm going to vote no, I don't think the front pieces would work well with any screen protectors, the back skins are plenty
Sent from my Nexus 4
If you had some sort of mock-up or possibly some real life pics that could make my decision. Without seeing what it could look like, I can't imagine it looking that great.
I voted NO, I've spent too much on finding the right screen protector so that I can keep the screen looking like new. Now if people had one of the glass screen protectors like the fantom4, maru labs or Holy grail then maybe it would be a good idea.
You guys are being irrational. A simple solution to this problem would be to put a screen protector over or under the skin. That's what i do with the rear skin. I just cut off a little piece of the protector so when i need to take it off i can without removing the skin, same idea
Need a picture to imagine how it would look like

dbrand already nixed the idea, saying it wouldn't really look right.
Full disclosure: The guys over at Cruzerlite helped out Carbon when no one had heard of use by donating a few free cases so we could run some giveaways on our social networks. We went to them because we liked their product and the way that they interacted with the Android community. They were so excited about their new skin product that they arranged to ship a MotoX and one of their skins to me so that I might review it and give them, and you, my honest feedback. The device and skins have been since sent back to them. I was not paid or otherwise compensated for this review. Mostly I just wanted to check out a new product, have an excuse to play with a Moto X, and play with the lightbox I built last week.
I hate cases. To me, they've always been a necessary evil. I generally go with the thinnest TPU case I can find so I know my phone will be protected, and try and find one that actually looks cool. Which is why I've always liked the Cruzerlite cases. Very android friendly, and there were always lots of looks to choose from - android themes, art, etc. My favorite was the Tardis case. I was always very careful with my device. But scratches and things happen, and like many of you I never plan to stay with one device for more than a year or so. That means you gotta keep it looking like new so you can sell it later.
To me, that's the niche that the Cruzerlite skins occupy. If you drop your phone all the time this product isn't going to keep you from denting it or smashing the glass. It's vinyl, not TPU. If you're a purist who insist on rocking a totally naked phone, this product also isn't for you. If you're one of the many who hate cases but want to protect the phone in some way, or are confident in your ability to not drop your phone but want a custom look, then this product is where it's at. It'll protect your device from light damage, give you any look you want, and preserve the size and feel of your device.
The product comes in the form of thick vinyl stickers. As it's a brand new product they don't yet have a set of instructions on the site. They tell me they have that in the works and we should see them soon. With that in mind, I'll overshare my installation process and what I learned for you folks. Cruzerlite clearly wanted to make sure that you'd be happy with the installation of this product, so they've given you a single sticker for the back, two sets of stickers for the sides, and three sets for the front. You can screw this up and try again without ordering a new set. Note that I say stickers, but this is actually vinyl of a nice thickness, not some elmo sticker you'd get from the doctor after a checkup.
So having checked out both the vinyl and the Moto X I setup my lightbox and got down to business. I applied the back vinyl, taking great care to align the camera and microphone. It worked, after a fashion - it looked like a sticker slapped on a phone. A phone with a lot of curves. So far... meh. I stuck the sides on as well. It looked... like a bunch of stickers slapped on a phone. They didn't conform to the curves of the phone at all. So I called up Joel at Cruzerlite and told him that while I thought he had a nice idea, this was probable something that would only work on a phone with simple surfaces like an iphone. I showed him how it looked and he asked me when I was planning to finish the installation. Finish the installation? What? Heat. You apply heat after installation. Ohhhhhh. For a guy who was just told that his half-installed product wasn't very good, he was pretty cool about it. Thanks Joel.
Ok, so with that in mind, I dug out the hair dryer and got to heating. It looked a lot better. With a bit of heat and some pressure with my fingers, the vinyl conformed to the curves of the device and started to look like they belonged there. That said, because I installed them like they were stickers, there were gaps. Teal gaps. It didn't look great - but that was on me.
You might want to color match better than I did. Teal and
wood grain aren't known for being a classic combination.
So the first install didn't look so great. The vinyl was curved to match the phone, but I had ugly gaps that ruined the look. When I put the sides on, I aligned things like I would with regular stickers - not heat shrinking vinyl. But Cruzerlite clearly anticipated that, so I had more! Off came the vinyl on the sides and and back to square one. This time, I made sure there was some overlap so that when heat was applied, it would properly fit. Here's what it looked like:
You can already tell it's going to come out better this time. Out comes the hair dryer!
Now we're talking. No gaps, all the buttons are nicely cut out... it looks great. Again, the color combination shows why I'm not ever going to be a graphic designer, but it certainly highlights just how well the product fits the device. There's a slight edge where the vinyl on the sides and the back overlap. It's not unpleasant, but I'd like to play with this product some more to see if I could even avoid that. I've asked Cruzerlite to send me a few more and another phone, and hope to have a follow up on this in the future.
Yes, it has front stickers. The great thing about this product is it's up to you what you apply - if you don't want the front stickers, don't put them on. You could even mix and match them if you wanted. Get different colors and make the phone version of this:
Yes, that's a real thing. It's a Harlequin Golf and comes
that way from the factory. Please don't do this to your phone.
So after installing and playing with this, I like it. The vinyl is thick enough to feel like a high quality and durable product and on the whole I found it to be easier to apply than a screen protector. Sure, it's a bit tricky to align, but you don't have to worry about dust and the use of heat makes this a relatively forgiving product. I'm certain that I didn't do a perfect job with this, but I don't hate it the way you'd hate a screen protector with a bit of dust under it. I did manage to tweak the back a bit when applying it, and you can see the bulge from it. Again, this is something that I'd be able to differently now that I know how the product works so I'm not particularly concerned about it.
Cruzerlite has a whole range of vinyl to choose from too - 57 at the time of this review. There's wood grain, antibacterial colors, metallic, and leather skins. We're spoiled for choice and if you can't find something you like you might want to ask yourself why you're so picky.
I'd say this is a buy. They look great, feel great, and will do a fantastic job of protecting your phone from light damage. They're easy to apply, and at just under ten dollars you can't beat the price. For those of you who picked up a Moto X before Motomaker was a thing, this is a great way to change your phone's look without buying a new one, or get the look of wood without paying an extra hundred bucks for a single woodgrain option. (bamboo? seriously?) At the time of this review, the skins are available for the Moto X, Nexus 5, Note 3, Galaxy S4, and iPhone 5/5s.
I'll update this thread in the future if I can get my hands on another device and more vinyl. If possible I'll try something other than wood grain, too.

looks like a fricken Iphone; thats the only thing I dislike about it so far
lovely device
The device looks much better in person, it's sleek simple and sexy.
I love the device, and the subtle reminders that HTC built this phone, it's been awhile since I owned a uni body aluminum phone and I'm really enjoying it.
Some people don't like that glass on the back, I think it gives it personality.
We picked up an XL for the wife on the weekend... I like it a lot better in person than what you see on a picture. I especially liked the silver edition (I think most people do considering it's basically sold out everywhere).
I don't buy the whole "it looks like an iphone" thing... it's a slab device.. they all look the same.
Maybe the bottom bezel is a little too big, but at least there's no physical button.
The bezel is not has big as it seemed in photos. Very well balanced. I kind of wish the volume buttons were on the other side and higher up. This could be an issue with my car mount squeezing them. If so, I might have to get a magnetic one.
I like the device. It looks utilitarian, something I loved about the Nexus 5. I'm kinda over the glossy, reflected fronts and backs of Samsungs. Both Pixels look unassuming and elegant.
I'm actually on the other side of the fence relative to most of the other comments here. I saw the pics\videos and thought it looked alright, then got mine yesterday and honestly I think it's pretty damn ugly. It doesn't matter much to me personally as I'm going to have it cased up at all times, but I think the shade on the back looks pretty half assed, and it picks up fingerprints like crazy. The bezels are almost exactly the same as an iphone, but it feels larger with no button to interrupt that space. Aside from that I love the phone, but aesthetically it's a meh for me at best.
Paint faded while a case was on, material was a soft rubber. Google claimed this as wear and tear while other users experiencing the same issue received replacements.
2 STARS. Never understood the fascination with how a phone looks. I've always put my phone in a drop resistant case the moment I got the phone, as have many others. Don't want it to break. I wish companies would stop wasting so much time on how it looks and make it perform the damn best that it can.
The Pixel XL's design is a step backwards for Google. Obvious iPhone clone aside, it has a huge bottom area with nothing on it. Why? The back is 1/2 covered in glass. It looks so stupid! Why not make it completely glass. It's like they did something just to make it different, no matter how stupid it looks.
I don't even care that much, put it in an otterbox defender case and I never see the phone anyway. Just the otterbox case.
When I first saw the leaked renders, I was completely unimpressed. But I felt the same about the Nexus 6P and now I love the look of that phone.
I just got the Pixel XL a few days ago (Quite Black). My first thought was it was an obvious iPhone clone. I know, there's only so much you can do with a slab device. But at the same time, look at the Nexus 6P. Look at the S7 Edge. Look at the Moto Z. None of those look like an iPhone. I carry an iPhone 6 for work, and the Pixel XL at first glance looks very much like a big iP6.
That said, the look has really grown on me and I like it. I put a matte clear skin on it from BSE, and I prefer the look of matte over the glossy glass panel. The subtle chamfers on the front and the aluminum and glass construction feel and look like quality. I like the not quite black colors of the Quite Black.
I haven't felt the phone is top heavy, and feels balanced despite some reviews. And it's thin enough that I can put a clear TPU case on it to show off its looks, without making it feel thick and bulky. Actually the case adds just the right grip.
I'll give it four stars for quality, and take the fifth star away for lack of originality in design .
I stuck a Dbrand skin on mine. I like the build quality but am not a fan of the half glass back design. With the skin on I'm satisfied. The phone is well balanced and feels great in hand. I like it a lot. I don't mind the large chin either, helps to make holding the phone in landscape orientation.
2 stars here. I have never held an huge phone like this. Needless to say I absolutely hate the bottom bezel, reaching the top of the display is almost impossible for me for that, other than with two hands. The glass back bit on the back is beyond ridiculous. The texture on the power button is nice, but I don't like that its placed above the volume rocker, and I don't like that the volume rocker is on the same side as the power button. The only thing I liked is the touch of the aluminium on the back, and the device is simple looking, not for them attention whores, that's it. Massive improvements could and should be done in next version.
I don't really blame the "Iphone looking" design cuz I personally it looks more like an HTC phone. The glass back is really concerning because it would be hazardous to use the phone if you drop the phone and the glass back gets smashed. It does look sort of awkward, but it doesn't look horrendous to me. Hey, but the bottom firing MONO speaker that looks like a stereo speaker though :S Apart from that, I really like the phone. I just don't think it should cost that much.

Cost was my main sticking point too. The Verizon went and offered the Pixel for $10/mo and the XL (128GB) for $20/mo. Main problem removed, and now I have one ordered.
Edit: Sorry, $8.33/mo for the Pixel XL 128GB with trade-in of Galaxy S5! Unreal.

I think the glass something to do with improving signal. If not, it's a poor design choice.
I still think it's a good looking phone. It's not quite the iPhone 7 but this and the OP3 and are the best looking droids in my opinion.
Average looking device huge bezels nothing aesthetically pleasing about it.

The smartphone is truly are beautiful. Awesome
4/5
The only complaint is the bottom bezel. Which I know everyone complains about anyways, but it's really the only thing that I would immediately wish to change about this phone. Everything else is very clean and sturdy build quality wise, a lot of past phones have weird gaps along the display or certain parts wiggle when you flex the device. The metal body goes a long way towards this problem, but I think they really nailed that portion of the phone.
Hi guys, I'm sure you've seen quite a few pictures of those accessories, so I thought I'd post here a few images from very close to some details so you can have a good idea of the finish, etc.
Also a small comparison with an official case (nylon one). I've ordered a skin for it, but it was on preorder and just started shipping today.
Sorry for the lint on some pictures, it does catch it ^^
As for my opinion (one more of those), well the case does feel real good in hand, the phone feels really safe in there. The buttons are real good (miles better than Rhinoshield bumper). Only thing is that the fingerprint scanner is deep and in a small window, so must get a little used to the feeling of really accurately put the finger in there. And is it grippy ? Is fine! a bit better than the official case but not by super much.
Prism is also good, easy to install. Biggest critic is how sharp the edges are (you can see on the pictures). If you don't use a case, you'll feel them and I'd be afraid to lift it by mistake, not sure how securely it sticks. The feeling is like glass, I was using the phone naked previously and no problem with that. Also, it does not affect the screen, I think ; some peops say it makes the screen cloudy, but I do not notice.
Worth the price ? Hmm those things are a rip off no matter what. But they are both good quality products, and the glass screen protector without a black border is a real step up ^^.
There you go!
Thanks for sharing! Would you recommend dropping $$$ on this combo?

Well, all in all, it is near 60 USD.
The case is good I think, feels good and will protect the phone that's for sure, so if you don't have anything like that, it is a good buy. I also have an official OP cover and the main difference is that the Dbrand case has raised edges.
The glass, while it is good, is not as ground breaking as I imagined (Dbrand's marketing team is good ^^). The plus is that it feels like glass and does not have a black border, is as fingerprints resistant as the bare glass or the official screen protector. The bad is that the glass as you can see on the pictures is really only on the screen and has sharp corners, so you feel it when doing gestures, unless you use a case (because then your finger does not slide from the farther edge of the phone, if you see what I mean).
So out of the two, I would say the actually real good product is the case.
The case looks too bulky to me. I prefer the slimmer ones like the official protective sandstone or the karbon bumper, which are really well made. But I guess it depends on the environment you're working in (etc) which affects the danger your phoneis in, in which case, if it's a place you can easily damage it, this type of case can save you good money on repairs. The prism looks really durable from what I've seen online and I believe you get 2 in the box if I'm not mistaken, so if that's true, that's a big plus over rhinoshield's overpriced 1x black bordered piece of crap that covers at least 1mm of screen on each side, forcing you to just take it off minutes after installation and breaking it in anger.
Anyway, thanks for giving us a look at dbrand's new products. Was really looking forward to seeing someone talk about that.

I agree as well, it does add quite a bit of bulk.
I have all in all 3 cases. The simple one from OP (carbon one), their thicker nylon one and this one from dbrand. I don't really need a lot of protection (scratches protection is good enough) so it's mostly to change the look. I go naked as well with just a skin.
The result is that with that dbrand case you do feel very confident that the phone is safe.
Yes you do get two prism in the box, so that's actually quite a sweet deal because those are sturdy and nice to the touch really like glass without the border.
I have not been able to try with the simple case from OP, it's still in my boxes after moving house, but do not underestimate how annoying the edges of the prism are. They really really get in the way.
I think it's important to stress this because for example people were downplaying the terrible buttons of the Rhinoshield bumper for op5 and I got it and it was in actuality very bad.

I dropped my OP6 from approximately 2.5meters from the locomotive's door and the phone miraculously survived with the karbon case having one nick in the top right side corner and surprisingly that disappeared after a few days. Very impressive quality. I was also very lucky, I guess, considering the height the phone fell from. THEN I got the bumper case from Rhinoshield along with the garbage black bordered glass. I broke the glass in half after basically donating money to them because that glass was not worth the price, but that was that. I put their bumper on my phone and left it there for a few days. ****ty buttons, poor quality material and slippery too, like a hard plastic you find in those kitchen accessories, but whatever, I liked the alert slider one. Then one day I got in my car and the phone fell from my pocket on concrete (or asphalt) and because it happened right at the edge of the road, one hard little rock managed to touch the edge of the screen at impact and cracked the screen on the middle right side with the crack starting from the bottom and ending in a "C" shape 2 or 3 centimeters above. So it's still ok but the start of the crack can be felt at touch so that's a bummer.
And in the end I could've given the money to the old lady beggar at the corner of the street instead of giving it to Rhinoshield for 2 absolutely rubbish products they made such a big fuss about.
Never again I'll buy from them. Dbrand's products seem a bit different though especially that prism. I might get one and put it on the screen to protect it from getting other cracks if I accidentally drop it, cause the crack is pretty small to make me replace the screen. I don't think it's worth it.

Yeah, as usual those things are very often quite a leap of faith. We want to believe that the more expensive it is the better it will be but the truth is that it's probably the same or close to the same with a different packaging :angel:
But need a screen protector at least to maintain the resell value of the devices.
I'll say again, prism is a good one but not perfect (like none of them is).
Can you comment on the alert slider functionality with the case on? I can make it out slightly on one of the pictures and it looks like you can use it with ease?
I'm currently using a Poetic case, I need a solid case with my work conditions. The only issue is the damn alert slider is rendered unusable without a pen or something similar handy.

Hey,
The slider is quite easy to use yes.
You got to get a bit used to it cause its quite nestled in there so you have to make a little effort at first to put the finger the right way.
Same as with the fingerprint reader, a little bit of time to get used to it, because it's deeper so you can't approach it from whatever direction like you would naked or with a different case. It's still easy to use.
All in all out of their two products, I recommand the case with no problem. If you look for safety then for sure go for it.
Will make a few more pics to show you.

Sure, no problem.
So here are a few more. The last one is to show how the phone screen does not touch a flat surface when it is put face down. It's blurry but you'll get the idea.
Also some lint, not fighting that anymore
