"Prime" is a service membership offered by Amazon that you pay an annual fee for that gives you extra goodies like free shipping and "watch instantly" TV and movies.

I just ordered this yesterday and had to pay the $2.95 shipping and I have amazon prime.
Smh.
In 4 one. Can't beat the price.
bought 4 too!
Never bothered protecting my screen before, but this is too good to pass up.
Thanks!
Thanks for the heads up! This is an amazing deal. I've tried several brands of screen protectors in the past, and Skinomi is the best. I was going to buy one for full price, anyway. Now I'm getting 3 for 3 bucks!

Amazon must have screwed something up. If you have Amazon Prime, this should be free shipping for 2-day delivery, just like any other Prime-eligible product.
Amazon is pretty responsive about fixing stuff like this. Send them an email, if its worth the time to you to get the $3 back.
Just ordered one here, and i was able to get the 2 day free shipping from prime.

does anyone know if it helps with finger prints, I have a dry screen protector on now and it is covered in prints
I wish they would raise the price already... I ordered 4.. then 2 more..... If it stays at this price I will have 20 by the weekend.
This is OCD too
Anyone know where to purchase the official bumper in the GTA? I would prefer to buy it at a store and not from Google Play as it costs almost 35 dollars with shipping and taxes. Thanks

Hello my fellow Canadian,
I live down in London and was in the same boat as you. Everywhere I went it was either sold out or they didn't have it. Your only chance is to buy it online. You can check out futureshop or best buy, they have it on there for 24.99 with free shipping I think but they only have the black one. Ebay and amazon is another method but don't know about the shopping cost. Www.Puremobile.ca is another site but I think they might be still sold out. You could also check those Wind stands in the mall, I went to one of them before but they were sold out.
I ended up getting my white (they have the black one also) OEM Bumper from www.blueshop.ca. It was Free shipping just had to pay the tax, came in 2 days.
Don't know where other members got their bumper from.
Hope this helps and Happy Hunting .

Thanks my Canadian Friend! Hopefully I can get one at Wind. BTW, what are your experiences with the bumper? Good or bad?
I actually just got it in the mail a couple of days ago, I was using the Rearth Ringke Fusion case for a while and then the Spigen ultra slim one for a bit. So far the bumper is great. There have been various reports that the bumper's aluminum finish that goes around it cracks at the bottom near the USB port. There are various replicas you can get if you don't want to drop 30 bones on the OEM one. The replica bumpers also breaks in the same place. Keep in mind the original OEM one is obviously made From better quality than the replicas. Some people like the replicas more, no idea why. The bumper doesn't give the phone that much bulk and only protects the edges obviously. You can combo the bumper with a dbrand skin and it would look awesome and also provides scratch protection for the back.
So far mine didn't break yet and my older brother had his for a couple of months and it didn't break yet. So we can only wait and see for now.

Poetic bumper
Hey,
I'm in Toronto as well. Got my bumper from here:
Poetic Borderline Bumper (Blue) @ Amazon
Since I have a trial prime membership, the shipping was free. The bumper itself is awesome. Not sure how it is compared to the OEM one, but this bumper looks nice and gets the job done

Using both of them each of them has their pro and cons.
OEM looks better than the Poetic Bumper.
Poetic Bumper is less bulky and easier to hold in the hand compared to the LG bumper.
OEM has better button clicks (has built in 'clicks')
In Toronto too.
I don't recommend the bumper due to the lack of protection for the rear glass panel. I got a very sturdy TPU case off ebay for $5. A friend scored the same thing for $3 =.=. Takes a while to ship from China, but totally worth it.
If you really want a bumper over a full case, you can still find it on ebay for single digit prices. It won't be the official one, but I doubt the official one is really any better.
Blueshop.ca has it. They also have great shipping times and prices for Canadians

Go with the Poetic bumper. Not as pretty but feels better in the hand, the rubber part grips better on flat surfaces and it's 1/3 of the price of the official bumper.

There you go. Poetic bumper on amazon.ca for a great price and shipping. Since all the bumper's crack at the bottom eventually and you might possibly don't want to drop 30 bucks for a OEM one, you should get the poetic one. I only got the OEM Bumper cause I wanted white

Go to pacific mall!!!!
Really? Would PMall have Nexus 4 cases?
For OEM bumper, I think your best bet is as Kendaihou mentioned, futureshop or best buy.
If ever you pass by Quebec, you can get at a Videotron shop for $20 (this is where i got mine, and they used to carry a ton of them).
The reason that the grey plastic below the usb port cracks is due to bending with installation/removal. I find out if you don't remove the case often and only remove/bend it from the TOP corners, the plastic at the bottom of the usb port shouldl not crack.
And by the way, nothing beats OEM quality
Well, the warranty for this thing expires very soon, so I ought to take the best care of it that I can (within reason, of course).
There are quite a few options for case and screen protector... which are worth the cash? Otterbox has a reputation for building good cases, and the Commuter is about $30 shipped from Amazon $20 shipped from eBay sellers. There's also Ballistic's offering, which follows the same design principles as the Otterbox, but costs 1/3 the price, doesn't come with covers for the ports, and for all I know, isn't as strong.
But it could be. I don't know, haha.
There's also the battery pack cases... which retail for anywhere between $40-100, afaik. I have no idea if they're worth it.
Same deal with screen protectors: which is worth the money? I despise the orange-peel effect but really want to protect the glass from scratching (Corning, when's GG3 going into production? Revision 2 still scratches like a mo'!). There's offerings from Zagg and XOSkins and ArmorSuit and the myriad "no-name" brands discoverable through Amazon (Am Film, Mirror, Fosmon, etc). Perhaps I should just buy the cheap ones and cycle them out as needed?
I am using one of the cheap no-name screen protectors (like 6 for $5 with shipping or something from Amazon) and it's been great. I also bought an inexpensive TPU case (under $10, forget the brand) and it's been fine. I'm pretty clumsy and have dropped the device a lot, but it's light so the case has been enough protection. I'd love to find a good battery case that doesn't cost too much, too, since I don't want to carry around an external booster device everywhere. So far I've made due with chargers at home and at work, but it's not the same.
Whatever you get make sure it's for the HTC One XL, not just the X nor anything that says both X and XL.
I user an ottorbox commuter without a screen protector. I've already dropped and broken the screen on this phone twice. (Once in cheap tpu case off eBay)
Dropped it a few times in the commuter and don't worry about it at all.
Definitely worth it

I figured I may as well spend an extra $10 for the peace of mind. Should be getting the Commuter this Tuesday. I'll post a review of it if anyone's interested.
I use the Ballistic SG and it is simply awesome in the amount of protection it gives.

I can only reccomend the ClearPlex screen protector. Check them out, seriously. No loss of clarity on the screen and good customer service. I had an issue with my first one and they sent me another for free without me even asking. They make windshield protectors too!! I had gym shorts on one day while riding the mower cutting grass and my phone slipped out of my pocket. Needless to say, my screen came out fine. http://www.clearplex.com/

Zerlemon Case
I got cases for my Galaxy S4 from Zerolemon and it is worth buying at 19.99 USD
I am waiting for them to release for One X as well.
cruzerlite
definetly, cruzerlite tpu case is the best one out there!
I'm with Zodiac on the Otterbox, although I use the screen version. Protected the phone through some major drops, as well as normal abuse. Not sure how many other cases would have done as well. Worth the $$ to me.
Otterbox for sure
I've had the Otterbox commuter on my phone for 2 years and have dropped it many times in that period without any damage. The softcovers for the ports have worn out though, the rubber hinges developed cracks after about 18 months and they eventually fell off. Otherwise it's great.

i just bought 3 full body for 2.75 shipped.
I usually buy alot of these and keep extra to cut/fit new devices/gadgets. normally the front is protected by tempered glass and the back with wet install.
Sweet!
Picked up 2 cases and 2 screen protectors for 4$
I got a shipping email.
But they use USPS so I don't get a tracking number for it.
But does say delivery in 6 - 10 business days.
Hopefully it won't take that long.
But no rush for such a good price.

I just bought 2 skins and 2 cases for lie $4 shipped, and the skins are pretty decent. they add a stickyness to it but thats a skin....
I wanted to get a case to but they were completley sold out of them so I just ordered some skins....
i bought 3 screen protectors and a case. the case is fine nothing great but the screen protectors seem off. they would stick in the center but not on the sides
This is actually pretty good! on par with invisible shield but a lot cheaper with the xtreme90 discount!
I am loving this tempered glass. Couldnt see paying 35+ for the spigen ones, so i went with this one for 16 bucks, free shipping with prime. Check out my review http://goo.gl/PgNdcZ
Get one for yourselves! Definitely an amazing, quality product.
Alright just thought id share this with you guys. Take it easy!

Have to agree. $15.99 on Amazon and a great product. Looks like its a $40 one with the packaging and quality.
Bought mine for 6$ on ebay. I was warned not to buy those because there may be quality, clearness, responsiveness issues. I can tell you that those people couldn't be more wrong. My 6$ glass screen protector cannot be more identical to a spigen glass tr, which i decided to boycott that company after their horrible customer service last year with the note 3. My 6$ screen protector is as clear, as fingerprint repellant, as easy to clean and has no scratches after 3 months. This opened my eyes on how we quickly throw our money at big companies because "we think" their products are of higher caliber. Couldn't be more wrong. BTW, here is the link to the item for anybody interested http://www.ebay.ca/itm/Samsung-Gala...ll_Phone_PDA_Cases&hash=item58af32c337&_uhb=1
It came in a box similar to the one shown in the video, it came with an alcohol pad and microfiber for cleaning. the only thing it didnt come with is the premium price tag. It's free shipping no matter if you have prime or not
Got mine for about $7 off eBay 6 weeks ago and so far matches up to any expensive branded protector, and that's why I don't automatically assume more expensive protectors are better just because I hear good reviews from people who have never tried the cheap stuff.
I always get a Nillkin when possible. Best tempered glass I've ever used and they are priced very reasonable.
