I'm just wondering if anyone has used the casemate gelli case which looks awfully a lot similar to those ebay $2, $3 TPU cases. I'm hesitant to even buy something that a $3 case (which I do have a few) can provide for $20-$30.
It's a high price point for something like this.
Those who have the GELLI, can you tell me if it's cut much better or the fitment is better than the ebay ones or if the material is that much different? So far most TPU cases I've gotten in the past are more or less the same quality.

It's much better. I've bought 2 pices similar to those:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/3x-Silicone...AU_MobilePhoneAccessories&hash=item2a15f0be62
and it's a diseaster. I had to cut out usb slot to connect cable. Also material is very low quality. The layer with pattern is peeling off and it's hard to push the buttons.
I think other products with this price will be similar
Then I bought Case Mate and it's perfect in any way. And looks really cool

Decided i should finally get a case for my phone since the CASE MATE I purchased at the AT&T store crapped out after a month of use. Rubber sides sagged and made my volume and power unusable while using the case.
Went to the local mall here and found a cell phone kiosk. Ended up getting the Cellairis Fender Case in Silver.

Ive had the case for a week now and I'm very impressed so far with it.
Rigid, feels great in hand. Can easily slip in and out of pocket without catching.
Forms great to our phone. I also love that the back is made out of aluminum.
All my chargers connect and no connection issues.
The price was 25 bucks here at the kiosk at the mall. Which was great cause online it varies and goes $25 up to $35
I give the case a 9/10.
That case looks sweet. I got the ccase mate tough case in black/green but I may have to pick this one up too.

Thanks for this review, the aluminum back is intriguing. How thick is the case? I don't see specs on their website and am wondering how much thickness / weight it adds.
Do you think that aluminium back plate affect reception of your phone and does it scratch?
Is there a good kickstand case for the S4?
it depends, I guess these are good, just not that good looking

that's a really good one! those are too expensive for me though :/ that's why I only look them up on ebay xD
Seidio is producing a line of cases that has kickstands for the S4. The "Active" and "Surface" cases are both very good cases, I used them on my S2 Skyrocket. It looks like they have available holsters for both varieties. Some consider them a little pricey, but I think they are worth it. Sometimes knock-offs can be found on Amazon, Ebay, and Best Buy stores. The seidio cases are still listed as "under development" as of now, but have pictures and should be available soon. Here is a link with more info:

I personally prefer these kickstand cases and have used them on my last 2 phones (Note & Note2). One reason I prefer these is that the layer against the phone is the rubber portion then the harder shell goes around that to secure the first rubber layer to the phone. Not to mention it has a kickstand.

Pretty sexy yet protective
Here's the link:
http://www.incipio.com/cases/smartp...es/samsung-galaxy-s-4-dualpro-shine-case.html
I might buy it, the problem is that i keep buying cases...I've already got 2.
My wife had 2 incipio cases for her Droid charge. They look good and protect pretty well, but the hard shell will break.

I've got that case in a carbon fiber finish. It looks great, but it is very slippery and sometimes hard to hold. It does a decent job of protecting the phone though. Before I traded up to the 32gb, I dropped my 16gb onto a tile floor from waist high and no damage done.
I like it, but it sees too thick, sadly.
they sell this at my local sams club.
looks too much like the speck candyshell, and in my opinion the candyshell looks better.
I like Incipio's feather cases though.
I like the black one better.
Thinking about getting either Incipio DualPro in black or wait for the DualPro Shine in black.
Hey all,
I have recently been looking at more durable Nexus 4 cases, and I came across the Eagle Cell Hybrid Case on Amazon.
Since I am a new user, I cannot link the item, so here is the exact product name, "Eagle Cell PRLGE960SPSTHLBKBK Hybrid Rugged TUFFSUIT with Kickstand for LG Nexus 4 E960 - Retail Packaging - Black"
It has been difficult finding reviews for this case. Can anyone give some feedback on how this case is?
Thanks.
That thing looks extremely cheap, you would be better off with a Seidio Convert.
dont do the eagle case. i have it and it is terrible. they say otterbox like but there is no comparison. its flimsy and really really deep. waiting for my mybatt case to come in. that looks really nice. just trying out cases and if all fail the seidio here i come.

His price talk for it self
Easily the Speck Candyshell Grip. I've had 6 cases, and the really good brand name ones. Ever since getting the speck grip case, haven't even touched the other ones. Once you go candyshell grip, you don't go back.
Just in case anyone was looking for a good phone case.
too bad that case is hideous. i wish speck made the grips in a different pattern.

I hope you're joking. I think it's one of the most aesthetically pleasing cases for this phone. And once you go grip, you never go back.
I thought my caseoglogy case was super grippy, but after using this case, its actually slippery in comparison.

No joke. Not a fan of the trapezoid-type design. I have the regular (non-grip) candyshell on my S4.
