Basically i'm looking for a cheap silicone/hard shell and screen protector but I don't want it from Hong Kong as shipping from there takes way too long. Does anyone in the UK/EU sell a cheap hard/soft case and screen protector?
Anyone? I want to order tonight so it ships out tommorrow.
Have you checked the 8 page cases/screen protectors/accessories thread? I'm sure there must be some mentioned in there.

See above ^
I think more info could be found in the other threads which are already about this; then you can decide whether to invest a heavy £2, whilst waiting for the real desire cases to get to market.
I received this a white one of these from this shop:

Even though it was from Hong Kong it only took 7 days to arrive from the date I paid the money, fits 100%.
Smells really strongly of silicone though... hopefully that will die down.
I've ordered from them before. Placed my order last night at 1am and they told me it was already packed and shipped Had a similar case from them for my mytouch 4g and loved it! Great customer service too!
I ordered the same exact case on ebay a little cheaper but that one is shipping from Hong Kong. This one ships from Cali I think.

Just noticed that you were a religious crackberry user too, I had all the crackberries you had, sold my last 9700 today and exchange a g2 for my gf. The last blackberry product i have is the blackberry playbook.
Ordered two of these cases, one black one white
Sent from my LG-P999
still not sure if i like the pattern on it...
ordered two as well
Appreciated
I ordered the one off Ebay too and it looks like it should arrive somewhere around mid May. Since it can never hurt to have an extra case and total cost is around $5 I went and ordered this one as well. Thanks for the link!

Yea I wish I saw this thread first too. Ordered one black one from ebay seller from Hong Kong 2 days ago. So I too ended up ordering a spare from the link. Thanks!
Ordered the black one. Should be here tomorrow or Monday.
excellent seller i might add i order all my tpu cases from him and they come in like 2 days. i ordered the black one.
I use this case, and it´s very nice, thin but safe.
Only major thing: it´s very hard to press the "power button" - so actually, I would not buy this case again and am looking for something else.

Hi Guys,
A TPU case for the Nexus 4 is now on sale in the UK. Its a much better option than the pouches in my opinion..

Thanks for the headsup - ordered a clear one. Will use in conjunction with my BestSkinEver full body skin

Ordered a clear one on sunday - has anyone received a case or screen protector off these guys does the screen protector fit . I ordered a screen protector from talklinesales last week off ebay and it was too small for the phone just had to send a picture off to these guys to show them how small it was obviously never test ftted to a nexus 4
Ordered a clear one yesterday as well as screen protectors. Paid for 1st class delivery. Hoping to get it tomorrow because I'm scared that my screen will get scratched or I'll drop the phone.
When one of you gets the clear one can you post a pic of what it looks like. I ordered the grey one, but might get a clear one if they look ok

Yep, and me. Ordered a clear one sunday night. Dispatched yesterday and paid for 1st class so was hoping it would arrive today
Ordered me one as well. Hope it's good. Should replace the slip case I ordered when it comes tomorrow
Like many eBay sellers I fear they mark the items as dispatched when they haven't been dispstched yet. Gives the impression they are efficient when they are not, and makes the buyer think its royal mail that's being slow. I have 1seller I have bought off many times where I have received it next day every time, where as others have taken up to 4 days to get to me 1st class, despite getting a dispatch mail the same day I ordered.

Quite possibly correct.
Often tried to check the package for a posting date stamp etc from RM
I've ordered one too, and they definitely mark as despatched before sending, as I ordered at 22:39 on Monday and the dispatch email arrived at 04:09.
Hopefully it's not a Chinese company pretending to be in the UK.
I ordered some screen protectors on 16/11 and a case on 18/11 from this seller and haven't got either yet, took 1st class on both. I am prettry sure I have had something off them before and they deff ship from the UK, just one of those sellers that takes 3-4 working days to get to you even though you took 1st class, not a problem really but I just need to get a case on this bad boy, coz I'm getting bored treating it with kid gloves all the time and I have somehow already managed to scratch the rear screen protector despite this!
I just bought a tempered glass screen protector for $6. Looks pretty decent. use code 90OFF1 at check out http://www.xtremeguard.com/Motorola-Moto-X-2014-Screen-Protectors-p/motx2014xgrds.htm
I also saw this deal. I bought all 3 screen protectors for a little over $7 shipped. Even if they are not that good, it's still worth a shot. The tempered glass one is regularly $60. Crazy.
just ordered one as well, thanks!
Does anyone know if this tempered glass has gap on sides like the other tempered glass ones since the display is curved?

There is no indication in the description. of it being curved. I gave it a try and hopefully it's good.
90% off?
PRO LIFE TIP: If a company regularly discounts a product by 90% off the listed retail price (Google-search "xtremeguard 90%"), then the actual value of the product is 10% of the listed retail price.
It may be a fine $6 screen guard, and I'm actually going to buy one, so I'm not being critical of the product. But it is a $6 product--not a $60 product.

Thanks man. I ordered one too. Not much to lose since it's only $6 but I have yet to see one that is curved to work with Moto X 2014 well.
$8.50 for a tempered glass, Hi-deff and regular screen protector rush shipped? Sure, I'll take that deal any day of the week

I got a full body protector from them with this sale. It came in yesterday. The protector for the back of the phone does not have a cut out for the dimple, so that makes it a no-go. I also got a screen protector since they were pretty much free. I haven't put it on yet, but I am hesitant just because I like the "swipability" of this virtual no edge phone.
Mine is still in the "Processing" stage . ordered on the 7th, so I'm pretty confused
I received my order yesterday. I didn't put anything on yet as my order was screwed up. I order 1 regular screen, 1 HD screen and 1 tempered. I received 2 regular, 1 HD and a tempered for the 2013 X
I emailed the company and am awaiting a response before I apply anything.

Yeah I just emailed this morning so I'm sure I will be receiving the same. I'm assuming they just told you to hang onto the 2013 one that they gave you as well? If so, I'm just going to include it with my Swappa listing for my 2013.

They actually made no mention of the other one. So I guess they don't want it back.
Hi,
Has anyone in the UK pre-ordered the Solar Red from HTC UK?
Any shipping notifications? Any guidance? I see the US models are shipping now.
Thanks
Haven't ordered mine yet, still waiting for the refund for my Sapphire Blue.
Have seen a few replies from HTC_UK on Twitter, stating that the solar red starts shipping from the 10th July.
Source: https://twitter.com/HTC_UK/status/880414335595675649
My CC was just charged and order changed status to In Process, so Solar Red is/will be shipping soon in Europe.
Just got confirmation my Solar Red is send ( to the Netherlands)

It's fantastic! Would be an absolute crime to cover up the rear with a non transparent case. I even feel the plastic case provided covers it too much as it has little dots on the back of the case.
Received a tpu clear case and screen protector today will update with photos soon.

Please do. I'm interested on the solar red color but I don't think I could use it without a case. Never had f

doesn't seem like as even UK got dual SIM models, but why it matters? you can use dual SIM as single SIM + SD card and it's the same.
Does the dual sim have the same firmware as the single sim. Would you have a problem getting a copy of the original firmware (for warranty) or a replacement Custom ROM?
