Hello All,
Just as the subject describes Bell Canada has released this phone and a few cases with it. I'm trying to figure out if anyone has used the above case since it comes with a heavy duty silicone case. Check bell.ca and select ontario and check out the accessories they have.
I went to 6 Bell mobility stores in etobicoke and Toronto, and NONE of them had any accessories for the S4G...most of the staff didn't even know what the phone was :/ way to drop the ball again Bell
I ended up getting a soft plastic case from future shop (the only one they had) and it was 2 for 1 for $30 after tax. One is black, which I'm using (its quite nice), and the other was opaque white.
The worst part is that all cases sold by FS and the source DO NOT have the noise cancellation holes, I had to drill them myself
Oh, Canada...

Just received my new Krusell leather case today. Don't know why I bothered with the silly included one or purchased a Belkin which stunk - although the box said XDA 2 it was really only made for the XDA. The XDA 2 fitted but to get access to the phone buttons and headphone jack and volume, slider and camera I had to get a leather shop to make some small alterations.
But because there was nothing holding it in at the top it after the case leather loosened up a bit the entire XDA 2 slipped out and made contact with the road. Took out an unsightly chunk.
The Krusell case fits perfectly - no mods necessary, offers excellent protection (already dropped it and no damage) and has lots of little holders for notes, plastic and SD cards (x2). And it looks very stylish too. See their website.
By the way Belkin Oz still haven't replied to any of my complaints - absolutely useless product and customer service.
Does the Krussell have that annoying snap closure like most of the others? I wish EB would make a magnetic case for the II...
I can vouch for the Krusell range, I use a Classic Multidapt with my XDAII and it's superb, excellent fit, you can use the touch screen through the protective cover and they have even fitted a velcro flap to the rear so you can access the camera whilst it's in its case.
anyone know the best place to get one of these cases in the UK?
Strangely eBay is the best and cheapest source, there are a number of dealers elling them at competitive prices, see here.
I've bought from PDA Addons and Fonejunkie_Dot_Com before on eBay with no problems and speedy delivery.
as ever. a wealth of knowledge. cheers Griffog.
The velcro release to help the XDA swing away from the case to use the camera is a bit awkward but nonetheless a very welcome feature compared to other cases. i just gor really tired of carrying a wallet and my PDA. Came close to leaving one of them behind at the pub or cafe because my mind was elsewhere.
They have a PDA Addons in Oz too. They weren't terribly helpful. They just said that they didn't stock the product in Oz but that I could order it from their UK business. After completing the math to convert our exchange rate for delivery, post and pack and of course some import duty it would have cost me almost twice what I eventually bought it for.
I emailed the Managing Director of Krusell direct to ask for a Distributor in Oz and he said I could contact Beyond Holdings www.beyond-holdings.com They ordered it after I sent them an email and a week later it arrived on my doorstep for the princely sum of A$56 (delivered).
I was so impressed I went to my local Telstra corporate dealer in Perth and they will be ordering several for stock. They've sold a few dozen XDA 2's in the last couple of months. Suddenly become very popular here!! (Communications Plus is my dealer)
Hi,
I need a tough case (curse you Otterbox!) for my Nexus 4 as I will have junior staff using my phone like it's their own. I have seen some cases on ebay that are eligible for shipping to Australia, but they really don't look all that great.
I know finding something as good as an Otterbox, probably wont happen, but maybe something ALMOST as good? Maybe even with a cheaper price tag???
Found this on ebay after looking for something substantial myself, just so happens it comes from the land of Aus. http://r.ebay.com/7lVFKi
I haven't received it yet as I am in the UK and shipping will probably take a while, but it looks pretty sturdy from the images. Also, I made an offer of $11.50 (AU) for 1 and the seller accepted, so it's worth making an offer of that or less.

Hi, yes I have seen those before. I was told by another Nexus owner who bought tis case, that the stand makes it a very bulky case. Also the hard plastic on the outside seems to make the phone slippery. He would've preferred plastic inside, silicone outside.
But as I can't find anything else, I think I'll get this one for the time being. (Until Otterbox changes their mind. Yeah right!).
Thanks :good:

How about these?

I'm also bummed that OtterBox didn't do a Commuter for the N4. The GNex one I have is amazing!
That Seidio one looks good, but the price is exxy. However, Otterbox will cost more ofcourse. A shame I can't get the red or blue one in Australia. I can get them via the official site ofcourse, but it will cost me a whopping 63 bucks lol. I can find the black one on pre-order at an Aussie online shop for $38,- though.
I just noticed that the Nexus are back in stock in Australia again today. As well as in France and Spain (those 2 countries sold out within 10 minutes again on the 31st). So it looks like Google has sorted out stock issues. Maybe this means Otterbox might start considering making a case seeing more Nexus 4's are now available for purchase.
I got this case http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/LG-Nexus...ies&hash=item53f44d48f2&_uhb=1#ht_2855wt_1133 from another seller (paid a bit more) but it got to Australia in under 2 weeks. This case is awesome for the price! The only problem is the cut out for the proximity sensor is too small and blocks the sensor when in calls. Easily fixed with a drill bit though Was going to buy the ballistic sg case, but for a cheaper price, i'm happier with this. (I have had a ballistic sg on a galaxy s3 and it was awesome) I still prefer this case. More colour options too. You can even get one that looks like a beer if you're into that.
Hi everyone
Most of what I see here in regards to accessories is for America, in the UK I cant find anything really thats any good. If anyone comes across something then please let the rest of us Brits know xD
For the time being I ordered a cheap £4 tpu case from Amazon. Hopefully in a few months ebay/Amazon will have more choice.

The only case I managed to find which is actually in stock and shipping from the UK was the one called "Moto X Case, SUPCASE [Unicorn Beetle Series] for All New Motorola Moto X (2nd Gen.) Phone 2014 Release" on Amazon.
It has a black surround and a frosted back, which unfortunately is a bit too opaque to make out the navy coloured back of my phone. It does however seem to protect the phone pretty well.
When I looked at most of the cheap TPU/Silicone cases which seemed to be in stock they were from US resellers with long (1-3week) shipping times.
Has anyone else has trouble buying a case? I've found multiple sellers on both Amazon and eBay, but they all have the same problem. The shipping for the case is delayed by about 2 weeks+. Most of the delivery estimates tell me it will deliver to me by September 16- October 4. Kind of bummed about this since I just bought my phone yesterday, and would like to use it with a case.
For reference I live in Canada, but when I try to find a case for almost any other phone you can get it fast. I know the phone hasn't been out very long, but it's already been a few weeks, if I'm not mistaken.
I think it depends on how well the phone had been leaked / shown previous to launch.
I don't think many were expecting a x play so perhaps they didn't show it to case companies.
Annoying.
I have a case and screen protector on order and won't be using until I get them.

I know the feeling! I was actually considering the Cruzerlite bugdroid case until I saw the crazy delivery times.
I ended up going with the Motorola flip cover for now. $40 at Bell, $45 everywhere else
For anyone wondering I got a sleo slimline case which came really quick from Amazon.
Decent slimline case for the few quid I paid for it.
I tend to change my cases regularly so cheap and cheerful is OK for me.

Have you got a pic of the phone with the case on?
Reallly frustratingly i got my amazon order cancelled by i-BlasonEU due to 'stock issues' on the day my case was supposed to be dispatched!!! I went for the Supcase Unicorn Beetle in Black/Black http://www.amazon.co.uk/SUPCASE-Uni...w_p_img_2?ie=UTF8&refRID=0EXFJ2YRVVF5WRKZE2AQ . Even more frustrating is the fact that the frost/black version is available for prime AND cheaper!
As requested. Not the best photos but hope they help.

Very nice
When I bought it at the end of August, there was no OtterBox case available. It was important for me to have some kind of protection because I dropped my last phone often. Instead of the OtterBox, I got a slim silicon case and a screen protector, which protect against impact.
Have you tried Telus or Koodo? at my Friends telus they had a case for our phone.

Both Telus and Koodo have cases. The screen protectors are $15 (for the 2 pack no warranty), $35 for the single with warranty. I forgot how much the cases were, but they did have the one where you replace the back cover with the flip one (with the credit card slot on it).
But when I spoke to someone at Koodo, they said that the colored backs were online only. At least that's what the Moto rep told him.
Bell has the flip cover with the card slot for $40 (Telus & Koodo charge $45). They also have a little gel case for $20 but I wouldn't get it (buttons are way too hard to press)
For those wondering what the official flip cover looks like, here's the Teal version. The pattern is the same as the standard back cover, but feels more "grippy."
There are new cases from Incipio available:

Check out ebay.in
You will get a handful of cases and screen guards.
Cruzerlite Bugdroid
The cruzerlite cover its perfect for this moto... I bought for the moto G 2013 before.
I just receive my Incipio Octane case and I'm 100% happy. Nice look and good grip. It feel like the Urban Armor case I had for my Samsung Galaxy phone.

Looks good. Where did u get it from? It's very hard to find a good case for moto play. I am using a transparent one gives a good grip and also compliments the back look of the device
Hi all,
I have a friend travellling in the US as we speak and I would like him to pick up the stand for my future Pixel 3 phone.
Does anyone knows if there are brick and mortar stores selling it directly in the Miami area? I was thinking about Verizon ones but it is not clear from their web site if they have stocks to sell to their physical customers.
Thanks in advance,
I went to Bestbuy.com and changed "my store" to Miami, FL then searched for the Pixel Stand. Said it was available today at the stores in Miami Beach, Tropicaire, Aventura, Pembroke Pines, etc.
Just so everyone is aware I purchased one from Verizon and my Pixel 3 has the Speck Presidio grip case on it and it fits on the stand but if even a light wind comes by it could make the phone fall off the stand. Its cool and charges great but just be careful about the case you buy. Anything thicker than Speck Presidio it will not fit.
