Hi Everyone,
Picked up my Desire HD yesterday and usually i hate cases!
However i am massively impressed by this. I originally tried the "Case Mate Barely There" but found that the hard case made pressing the buttons difficult.
Price: £10.99
Box Contents: x1 Rubber Skin, x1 Screen Protector & x1 Screen Cloth

Pros:
- Both power and volume rocker buttons are amazingly easy to press now
- Very good all round protection
- 10/10 for quality
- 10/10 for perfect fit
Cons:
- Rubber material attracts dust
I'm yet to try any of the eBay ones but for someone looking for a cover fast i can highly recommend this one.
I've got this case but don't use it. It gets stuck in my pocket due to the rubber and it attracts every piece of fluff and dust near it.
Got mine off of eBay for£4

^always happens with these sorts of silicone cases...
Mine seems ok so far ... however i've not had it long, i'll update on how i get on.
I have one if these and it is useless for everyday use. I use it only at work and it is constantly coming away from the phone.
It was fine for a few weeks and then it just got rubbish.
I had one of these and they stretch after a couple of weeks and become loose and generally horrible. I switched to the barely there and am much happier, volume rocker is a little tricky to press but at least that means that it doesn't get pressed by accident.
Also the screen protector was useless and was too small for the screen ???

It covers the top and bottom!
One week ago, I purchased the Diztronic Matte TPU Case, and this case. At only a dollar, (plus shipping) I didn't think much about it. I knew it would be similar to those cases you find at the mobile stores at the mall, because I previously purchased a similar one for my iPhone. Unlike most of the cases for the Nexus 4, this case Does cover the top and bottom of the device, but is still light and minimalistic like the Rearth Rinkge Slim, actually this case doesn't have a logo. It is a hard shell case, and is made of two parts, which you press together when you put the case on. It is made of soft touch rubber...plastic....(not too sure, but it is the same texture of the matte black cases), and the volume and power buttons are accessible. It also came with a useless screen protector, but it looks like it was for the Optimus G. Overall, I am very Surprised from the practicality of using this 90 cent case daily. I strongly recommend.
Pro's: Slim, Light, and Minimalistic, covers top and bottom, decent lip. buttons exposed
Does well with edge to edge screen protectors
Con's: Feels Slightly Cheap, cutting of the case was not exact, and there is slight fraying where it was cut
This is my first post, so I cant share the link, but it is called the BC Hard Shield Shell Cover Snap On Case for T-Mobile LG Nexus 4 E960 + Fitted Screen Protector -Black (on amazon)

Hi all,
Around 2 weeks ago I found the following cover on the internet. It was only $2,40 so I decided to buy it and try it out. I was kinda skeptical to the quality since it was so cheap, but honestly the quality is rather good! I have been using it for a day now and I have to say, for a case this cheap it feels great. It's nice to have in your hands, I personally like the design. Also it has quite a rubbery feel which feels nice in your hands and also helps it laying on slippery surfaces. Also it is flexible, not too much though. I feel like it will definitely protect my phone if I might drop it or anything like that. The only thing I don't like too much is that the hard buttons are also covered by the cover. However this is not that a big deal, they still function nicely.
Here are some pictures of the cover itself.

Here is one of the cover used on the phone
If any of you guys would like to order this here you have a direct link to the cover:http://dx.com/p/protective-soft-tpu-back-cover-case-for-samsung-galaxy-s4-i9500-transparent-201232
This link is for the transparent one I am using, they also have it in black if you prefer that. So if you are looking for a cheap, but good quality cover for your phone I would definitely recommend this one! Also the ordering process is quick, and delivery to Holland only took around 10 days. You also don't have to pay shipping fees so you have a cover for only $2,40. Worth a try right?
For anyone worrying it says GT-I9500, this also fits on the GT-I9505 version since the phones are exactly the same in size etc.
Here my review for the zoogue social case I have had this case for my s3 and its low cost and in my opinion the best tpu came made it took so long to come out cuz the owner of the company kept sending the prototype cases back cuz the power button wasn't clicky enough ( tactile ) well they did it rite it works great it diferent from other tpu cases its soft and durable not rubbery and isn't slick the griipy ridges on the sides has a decent front lip and the back is very slim protects the camera but not by much make it easy to hold not sure how it works with glass protectors as I am using a plastic knock off ( says it glass and installs like glass but isnt ) works with every kind of headphones I have big and small chargers work well too the stock charger is a little snug but given the flexibility of the case just push it in and works just fine well pics included fee free to ask if I left anything out
I recommend it only ten bucks slim very light and like the one on my s3 it should protect u from a 5 foot drop just fine I fumbled my s3 many times and no issues haven't dropped my s4 yet tho god to test

Call me a Sammy fanboy if you may, here I am who jumped into the wagon and join others who are so eager to get S6 and was oblige to get a screen protector to protect this $700+ device. I’ve ordered IllumiShield screen protector from Amazon, because at that time it was really selling relatively cheap and also the product has nice review. I’ve received it recently and was totally satisfied. Easy to apply, stick and peel kind of thing, no damn water spray or special potion to use during application. Result was smooth, feels like glass, and does not look like thin saran wraps or so. Easy to take off and re-apply. For stubborn hair and specks of dust, the masking tape did its job wonderfully. So, there’s my new found screen protector.

So have you gotten your screen protector? If so, what's yours?
Yup I am using it too. I tried two tempered glass screen protectors (iSmooth and a generic brand) and they both had some serious halo effects due to the nature of the curved screen on the phone. Too bad, I really like glass screen protectors, but I don't think that it's possible on the S6.
I used illumishield for the Surface pro 3 and it was perfect so I tried it for the S6 and it is almost perfect. You have to get it on exactly in order to avoid the halo effect but it works and it works well.
Yep. The key is to do the installation properly. It takes time to master it but its worth it.
I received this case a few days ago, this is the first Poetic case I've owned. I have heard positive things about them and decided to give them a try.
This case is really nice, feels good in my hand and most importantly the volume/power buttons have a nice solid feel to them. You know when you press them unlike some other TPU cases I've had.
The cut outs on the bottom are spot on and the edges are nice and smoothed.
Only issue I had was the bottom left corner. As you can see in the pics, it didn't seem to fit the corner of the phone properly. It could have just been due to the fact that I have a full body protector on the phone and that was not allowing the case to seat properly. Either way it doesn't hinder the usefulness of the case in any way.
For those looking for a clear TPU style case with solid rocker buttons and a really good feel and protection, I definitely recommend this case.

Ps: why in the Fudge would i get a case on my A9 that looks like a Goober creature on my phone? Did u not notice this before uploading?

Phone is perfectly fine, look again and you can see the actual screen above the case.
Yes, really. I highly recommend this case.
The "goober creature" you see if you had any reading compression, is because of the full body skin I have.
