i like the barely there by case-mate better.

Could you post pics of it after you get it? Its always so hard to tell what the color is going to look like from the ad photos - the case mate barely-there case's black color just looks too contrasting from the gunmetal. I'm hoping this will match a bit better.

will it still fit the google dock ????

I doubt it (i dont have one though) as the docks are designed to fit snuggly with the phone, so i suspect the only thing that will fit with the dock will be those shield type cases e.g. Zagg Invisishield.

thanks was waiting for this one and pulled the trigger since it's currently on sale
Retail Price: $19.99

Good timing isn't it with the mothers day sale on
The only down side is with this one they don't have any screen protectors like they do with the 3GS version
So i just need to decide on one of those

got mine today
looks pretty good gotta say and adds little bulk
i had a gelli case on it before that i liked, but it was difficult to take on and off to put in my car dock.
i'll post pics later for any interested ppl

Please do!
Also.. what kind of feel does it have? Is it a soft-touch finish

yea lets see pics!

x3 on the pix!

Mine arrived yesterday which i wasn't expecting
Overall I'm happy with it, I don't think I would have paid the full $19.99 for it as its a bit flimsy looking. I was expecting the case to be more like the iphone 3gs version which has a rubbery feel to it.
It's easy to pop in and out of the case.
The gap for the volume controls could be thinner.
I don't have any of the google docks but I would probably bet you'd have to take the phone out the case.
Some of the guys at work that have N1's have the Zagg Invisishield so if you are feeling anal the incipio will fit over that
I'll get some piccies today

pix
like bewa mentioned it's not the same rubbery feel to it like the iphone case, which what i was hoping but this is good to imo since often times those cases with the rubbery feel end up peeling at some point. this case is pretty thin, thin enough where if it were made of the same material it wouldn't feel any different than stock.
It's a good light weight unobtrusive case for everyday use, I figure I can slap on the gelli case for the occasional drunken night out.
sorry for the crappy pics

cheers dude
Updated the first post with a link to your post

I'm sure you can find something like this on ebay soon. In Hong Kong you get the same case for $2.00, quality is good too.

thx for the pics. I wish someone would maek this style of case without the obnoxiously huge logo on the back.

i've been waiting for the feather for a long time now cause i thought it was going to be like the iphone's feather, but it doesnt seem to be.
any chance of getting a picture of the inside? is the inside of the case rubbery like the iphone or shiny?
i also dont like how it doesnt cover the corners fully. if you drop it, it'll probably take a toll on your corners.. maybe i should try the barely there
anyway,
thanks a lot for the pictures, definitely helping out my decision

I had to remove my Zagg for it to fit in my dock, so thats a no go with the case. Sorry :/

its the same on the inside as it is on the outside i'm afraid :S
I was hoping even that would have some sort of grip on it but no it doesn't!
I just can't understand why they've gone for this approach on the feather for the N1 rather than the same as on the iphone versions! personally that would have been better in my view!
I held out on a case for this one based on the experience i had with the 3gs and i think after a week of usage (or less) i'm pretty dissapointed
I'll keep the case on and search for something similar to the 3GS version and look for a screen protector that doesn't reduce touch screen responsiveness...

case looks alright but I feel it's lacking a decent amount of coverage. Think I'll stick with my Seidio Innocase II

heavy duty case for nexus one?

well i have been searching around and no luck. when im at home, i got a rubber case for it since i tend to not drop my phone at home. but when im out, i tend to forget about my phone and drop it. now this hasn't happened to my nexus one but it has happened to my past phones (iphone 3gs, i phone 3g, blackberry curve, blackberry bold, sidekick lx 2009, sidekick lx, etc) so i need a heavy duty case for my nexus one curve. it doesn't have to look sexy but i wouldn't mind if it did will to go up to $50 for it. so any suggestion guys?
Do a search for "BLACK RUBBER DUAL COVER CASE FOR HTC NEXUS ONE GOOGLE" on Ebay. Fantastic silicone/hard plastic case for $7.99 (i paid additional $3.99 for international shipping) which seems to give the N1 much better protection than the standard rubber cases (i have one of those "argyle" ones).
Othe than that, there's Case-mate tough (which i believe is very similar to the one on ebay, don't know if it's worth more than 3 times as much), Seidio Innocase and Otterbox has N1 cases coming out.
I have a Tough Case (pink/black), it looks pretty good and does feel pretty hefty, has some very good reviews too.
Overall fit is very good, nothing loose, all holes line up bang on. I do like that the buttons are covered, and that being covered doesn't affect their operation. Also comes with a screen protector which doesn't mess with the visual quality or useability of the screen, which surprised me.
Really don't have a bad word to say about it, other than it's quite expensive for a case, I'd probably nit have bought it if I didn't get a good price.

I went with the black/black. Whoa pink and black? Anyway this is a damn good case and I'd look into it if I were you.
im looking into that case mate and i got to say, im pretty damn impressed. im also impressed by the Otterbox $35 one. im guessing the otterbox is stronger.....but i think the case mate is sexy lol what you guys think???

I don't think you can go wrong with either.
One review on the case mate (tough case) website said that his phone survived a 35 foot drop to concrete. Someone in the general forum had a clear case that only covers the sides and back and it didn't even survive a 2 foot drop.

grrrr both are so tempting. they both look rather good. i guess i will buy the case mate for now (along with an invisibleshield for screen and body protection) and buy the otterbox some other time. hope the case mate tough case feels as good as it looks
also, i want fully body protection for the front, not just the screen. is the screen protector that case mate comes with enough? or is it better to get a full body invisibleshield?

Well, the screen protector by definition only covers the screen, however the silicon skin part of the case protrudes a few mm (as seen in above pic), which will protect the front in the event of a face-plant.

Flexible Hard Case (not silicone) DCMugen Review - now with pictures!

Hey guys,
I don't usually post much as I mostly read the great things people post in this great community, but i had to make a review for this case for everyone. I have bought a case from this ebay user (dcmugen) since i got my mytouch. Then my Nexus, and now my G2. This case is awesome to me. Heres my review:
Feeling: These cases are made from some type of flexible material called Thermoplastic polyurethanes, or TPU. This plastic gives it a flexible feeling but solid. Hard to explain other than saying its a stiffer silicone case. Though it feels rubbery to the touch and the grip you get on it is great, It will slide in and out of your pocket without getting caught on fabric.
Fit: When I first looked at the case I made sure all the openings were there for the speaker, flash, light sensor, etc. Everything has a smooth opening and there is nothing that is left out. Took me less than 2 minutes to put the case together. Since the case is TPU, it doesn't seem to run any risk of scratching your phone once put on. Both sides of the case fit snug and once on, The phone is able to completely close without any space left open between keyboard/screen. When open, it leaved a little void but it is not noticeable.
Typing on it, takes a few times to get used to as the feel of the phone is a little different. The top row of keys are still accessible with no problems, but again take getting used to because of the touch of the new case.
The screen area is raised. This allows your phone to be dropped on the screen and not get hurt! The case also comes with a screen protector, though not like a Zagg screen, works quite well and I recommend it. The trackpad is easily accessable and is not hindered in any way.
The hardware buttons are covered and have a fully solid TPU button over them and are enclosed in the case. They still work perfectly and have had no issues with them.
Protection: Since I've had these cases before, I can vouch and say they protect quite well. I've dropped my phones on concrete, dirt, chairs, tables, etc, and they will not get scratched.
All in all, for the $5 I paid, I'm alot happier with this one, than the cheap hard plastic one i bought from Amazon that broke after a week of use. Highly recommend this.
Here is the link to the Ebay store
http://stores.ebay.com/DCMUGEN
I will post pictures of mine either later tonight or tomorrow morning.
Side note: the item is shipped from Hong Kong and takes a bit to get to you. Usually my cases get to where I am (New Orleans) within a full week. So be patient.
Pictures! Finally!

A link would help too!
It wouldn't let me post pictures because of a 8 forum post limitation. This is my 8th post. Don't like spam but i dont want to randomly post in stuff i don't have interest in! Pictures are coming up in a few minutes.
Dude that's an awesome case. I've been waiting for something like that. I have an otterbox but i like to mix it up a bit. Is it tight fitting?
sent from my V I S I O N.
How hard is the case to take on an off? Some of the oem ones felt like i was gonna break my phone taking them off I just want one to keep on it at work.
Patrick: it is a very snug case and does not slide around while on the phone. I can type and have no problems with it.
ionic7: the case takes less than 5 seconds to take off. Does not feel like it will scratch your phone either. Thats one of the main things that bother me with hard plastic shell cases.

TY for the reply I had already ordered one with the mirror screen protector before you posted
Dude, please resize the pics.
Where do you buy this case? Thanks!
I would also like a direct link to the case you have, please! I want one.

I highly recommend their screen protectors too.
Their clear one is top notch.
Matte and other variations are expected to have a decrease in screen quality (as with any brand)
well i ordered one..and it came with a screen protector eventhough ive already got a couple. haha. right now im sitting with an otterbox back, with a front piece from a rubberized tmobile case. its nice.
Resized pictures. Sorry didn't notice they were huge as a brower extension i have automatically resized them to fit.
I know its late, but this is the one i ordered:

I just wish they would make a red one. I'd be all over it!
Looks like a great case, I have the otterbox and I like it but looking for something a little bit thinner. It adds a bit a bulk to the phone. Anyone used both and can give a comparison?

There are some other G2 TPU cases with an argyle pattern on the back. These come in a few more color options, including red. Just do a search for "G2 red tpu case" on ebay. I have a clear one myself. These cases are great!

Video Review: Quibits / Basal Enterprises FlexVue TPU Case

I haven't seen any videos of this case, so I thought I'd put together a quick review for you guys. It's a pretty neat case, I kind of prefer it to the TPU-Cases model, I just wish the top was completely covered.
Also, the title should read "qubits" not "quibits".
Love the video, looks very professional. On a quick note. I wanted to point out that Yoobao has a somewhat similar TPU case with that missing top part that you mention was missing cover.
Here is a link for it:

Well, I purchased it and received it yesterday. I love the darn thing. The screen protector was cut out for the device, because it has the cut out exactly where the light sensor is. (I also installed and had 0 problems with the installation.)

I have this Yoobao but I decided I wanted to keep the cheapie kickstand case. I still haven't opened it to test it. I can do that or if you want I can sell it to anyone here for 10bux shipped, if you are in the USA. I posted this in the marketplace, but I do not think many others venture out of the device forums lol

How does it fit? Is it really tight? I'm looking for a TPU case because the Tmob case I got when I got the phone is simply way too floppy and loose. That Yoobao you posted is exactly what I'm looking for because I want a clear case to show off the phone's design. If the fit is tight and the cutouts all align nicely I'm purchasing it immediately lol.
To stay on topic, the OP's video looks very professional and I've looked at the Qubits case a lot too.

It fits like a glove, no flimsiness and not loose at all! Every single cutout is made EXACTLY where it needs to be. I was amazed by that.
Thanks for the review. Looks like a better case than the rubber one I got from T-Mobile for $20. The case is too loose around the sides. I already scraped the side with my key. I will be buying one of these TPU's.

1 more question: how long did it take for you to get it? I really want to try it out, but I'm leaving for college in 13 days, so the fact that it's shipping from Hong Kong kinda makes me worried that I wouldn't get it in time.
If in the uk amazon sell the grey one through a seller named "podjunkie" bit the order is fufilled by amazon

i got similar case ( black , not transparent and slightly different in design) as OP from amazon for $5.99 with free 2 days shipping ( 4 bucks cheaper ^^). This is really good case, fit tight and look awesome. As OP said,only weak point is that this case doesn't cover the top ( i guess they decide to design this way so you can put in/ or take off the case easier. I have similar type of this case for my mytouch 4G, my nexus S and it is a little bit more difficult to take the case off or put it in) This is always my first choice when i buy my phone's case.

This is honestly the best case I've ever used. Fits perfectly, adds a nice feel to the phone (I don't feel like it will snap in my hand anymore).

Looks similiar to the rearth rinke and diztronic ultra thin cases. Try one and give a review!
Hmmm... you can get similar case for 9.99 though.
If SGP made a bumper, I'd be all over.
The ultra thin case does look similar to those on eBay indeed.
what is up with the cutouts on the render? they are awfully tiny on the volume and power. I hope that's not how it really looks but it's not really worth it since you can get the same thing from rearth.
I'll pass. I can have two different colors Ringke Slim cases for that price.
It also includes a screen protector. That's worth the price. Buying one now.
I hope they make a clear version :fingers-crossed:

not if you already have the screen protector. I might buy it anyways but gonna dig around for a coupon code first.
Only if they made a rugged case...

their response was "the price depends on what the package comes with"...so I had guessed they'll include their screen protector with the case...but still cant see why they proceed with the project when you can get the same case for around $2 on ebay..
This case is quite a disappointment...I associate SGP with making unique cases, not something so obviously generic looking. I'd really like to see them release something for the Nexus 4 like the Neo or Ultra Hybrids they had for the Galaxy Nexus, or the Linear Metal or Hybrid EX cases they have for the iPhone 5. Now those all look unique from the other stuff out in the market currently.
they will, it will take some time though because on the limited availability of the phone

I think the quantity of these phones in the market is enough to warrant a good sale...just look at the poetic bumper case :
ebay = 818
amazon = more than 149 (based on reviews number, so the exact quantity should be more than that)
They've raked up more than $10 grand of revenue from a single case model...
and sales from both sites are still counting, since other case manufacturers are still skeptic of the market size for this phone's casing...
received my case today!
feels nice, smooth of course lol.
but it feels a bit loose, but it does hold the phone in. The top part of the case is a bit loose with the phone in it, the bottom part is firm and in place.
Maybe because i have a back screen protector on it, but i highly doubt it.
gonna shoot them a email in a bit about it
this is so going to be a product marketing failure...
throwing something very few wants, in a market already filled with it, at a higher price...thats like 3 flukes in one go
its like selling shaved ice out in the cold, in the middle of winter, at a higher price than in summer.
disappointed in SGP
-sigh-

Did you see if you could bend the corners in for a better fit? Kind of like with the original, non-revised Ringke Slim.

What we really need is a case that only covers the top and bottom and leaves the sides exposed. Would love to take full advantage of those curved edges.

[Review] Orzly FlexiSlim - A Case for the Case Hater

I hate cases. There, I said it. They're bulky, they're ugly, they make the device harder to use, and I always end up questioning how well they'll really protect the device. This has, however, lead to all sorts of scratches, nicks, and chips in my phones that make these expensive gadgets look like hell and hard to sell when I want to move up to the new hotness. With the improved quality, and what I assume is an increased fragility, of the new Galaxy S6, I figured it was time to cave in and looking for something that would make me hate using my phone. After some research, I decided to pull the trigger on a grey Orzly FlexiSlim on Amazon.
The FlexiSlim is a flexible, translucent case that can really be better described as a skin. At 0.5mm thick, it adds roughly the thickness of a standard business card to the device. While this isn't going to save your phone from a drop to the floor, it feels like a great way to keep your device from being scratched up from whatever is in your pocket. The bulk it adds is so minimal, the only thing giving way the presence of the case is the quality of the materials. I know it's going to be hard to top the premium feeling of the S6, but I would have been happy to pay a little more for something that felt less like rubber and more like the cool, slick feeling of glass. The advantage here, of course, is the FlexiSlim gives you a bit more grip and traction in the hand or a loose pocket than the naked phone. I don't want to imply the quality is low, here, so it's worth pointing out that the cutouts feel perfectly sized and placed and buttons end up flush, not recessed.
Overall, I'm extremely happy here and feel like I may have landed on the perfect case for case haters since I can easily forget the thing is even on, it doesn't distract from the phone's aesthetics, and it doesn't block wireless charging. If they were to create a fully transparent model, I would jump on that in a heartbeat.
Here are a couple of shots I took with my 100mm macro:
In the promo video they said the skin was 0.35mm

Interesting! The Amazon product page lists it out at 0.5mm. I couldn't tell you which one is more accurate, but somewhere between the two seems likely as it does seem just a bit thicker than a standard business card (around 0.3mm thick).
That's nice. Like you I wish there were a transparent option. What other colors does it come in ?

Never mind I see the link, thanks
Some nice pics buddy! Really does help to show off the thinness of the case. I'm guessing it is 0.35mm if it's coming from the manufacturer. I agree with what you said about cases that feel like rubber, there's many of those around which although add very little bulk, they don't feel particularly great, makes it feel like you're carrying any other phone you've had in the past.
it comes in that translucent black and white, so should look pretty neat against any of the s6 colours. In their video they only demonstrate it on the white device, can see the difference between the same case on your blue handset and their white version.

Here's the video embedded if anyone is interested in watching
Also in response to twoeleven99, from the same company they also do a completely transparent case, adds a bit more bulk to the phone than the slim case but shows off the phone nicely
That smoked white looks good on white s6..
i have the frosted white one for my black S6. its a very solid great case, just FYI there is a dark company logo on the side bottom near the speaker. its not bad at all but its something worth nothing.

Could you show some pictures of the black s6 with the white case, would appreciate it a lot!
Whoa this is superslim might have to get one. love the title
I was really tempted by this one opted for the speigen liquid thin instead as it has camera lens protection, tho the back is a finger print magent.

I have brought this case for my samsung s6 along with a few other cases from amazon.com. I have used Orzly in the past and believe they make good cases at good prices
This case for me is my favourite, i am sure this is the slimmest Samsung s6 case on the market. I like the fact that you can still see the samsung logo through the case.
I've been using the Obliq [Slim Meta] Ultra Slim Fit case so far and it's been nice. Can't seem to find the dimensions/weight of the Obliq - don't think it's as slim as the Orzly
Currently on offer on their main website, 50% off.
I've ordered both. Im getting the white S6, just cant decide which would look best on it!
thanks

I ordered the case but im getting my phone this week but haven't decided yet which color of the phone, since there is a video of how it looks in white already from orzlys part i would love to see how it looks in the black one
does it flattened exactly as the rear camera ? so that it will covering the camera module if we put it on the table
Hows the dust build up i and around the case, i notice that on invisible cases, this can be quite a problem, im hoping the smoke effect on this case may prevent that.
