Here you go
http://www.ebay.com/itm/130812950478?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649

Does it work with wireless chargers? The Poetic one, I've discovered doesn't.

Nice photos of the Nillkin cases, cant wait for mine to come. Just wondering though, what screen protectors do you have on? Or is there none on?

I also ordered the leather case in grey :highfive:. Ordered on the 1st and still waiting. I bought it from a seller on ebay which ships via hong kong airmail. Just wondering where you ordered, how long it took and if it was delivered at your door or mail? :good:

I agree. I got the black one and I love the feel of it.

hey. i wanted to know if this case would work with an edge to edge screen protector? I currently have the XOSkins full body protector which covers the curved edges right to the edge of the display. will this case cause bubbling or peeling? thanks.

If the poetic case didn't work, I can't see this working then. But you never know.

The case come with a screen protector. I don't have a per say screen protector. But I do have something else on my screen. I've been using this stuff for a year now.

I think if your careful and put the phone slowly into the case with the screen protector on. You could be OK.

I am really intrested in this special coating spray, could you tell me how it compares to a screen protector in terms of protection and feel to the hand.
Because I am realy fed up with screen protectors so I would like to give this a try. Can you use it and, not even need a case afterwards?
Thanks in advance,

Is there something that holds the cover closed?

I was once in your shoes. I hated using screen protector. Depending on the brand. Some will have an orange peel effect. Others will have a harder time getting all the bubbles out. I've tried all major brand. Was never satisfied. It always looked like I have a screen protector. Some weren't as smooth to the touch and felt like there was some drag when swiping. But with this liquid armor, you spray twice on the micro fiber cloth supplied and apply to the phones screen and back glass. Wait ten minutes to dry before use. It take about 24hrs to fully cure. The screen feels smooth and responsive just like it would be without a screen protector. I would always recommend to at least have a bumper if you don't want a full case. This product will protect the screen not the phone.

The way the case is made is that there's a little ridge that makes the case flap close perfectly with the rest of the phone. There's no magnets or clicks. I'll try to take a close up picture of that.

Nothing holds the flap. But that seems okay for me, my pocket hold the flap.
As for charging, my lg wireless charger works with this case.
Also, it's not leather... Good fake leather.

Says it should arrive Jan 4th or before. How accurate is the shipping with this seller?
Here is hoping the best and wise purchase!
At least, until the mythical otterbox for the N4 comes out.

I ordered mine on white 2 weeks ago and received it on Dec27 while the estimated delivery was on Jan22 so it was REALLY FAST... I haven't seen it yet because I'm in New York but my brother sent me a pic and it does look nice

I know we all wanted and waited for the HD version of it to be available, and now it is!
Even better, it can be had for 50% off with the promo code ARMOR50
*yes there was the other thread, but that one got confusing because the guy wanted to put the Optimus G version on the Nexus 4, but now this is an official one.

Woah, £20 for a single screen protector? No chance.
Even with the discount it's way too expensive.

This ain't no cheap throwaway screen protector that doesn't work, mate. And it is $20 USD ;p

It's £20 on the UK site. I can't imagine it would be any better than my BSE, and that cost £7 for a full body skin including screen, back and sides

Might pick this up. I'm loving my SGP UC though.

Does it have that annoying orange peel effect?

I have the normal Zagg one on the front and back of my phone and love it. I might give this one a try for $10.

I want to get this! But I have 2 xtremeguards waiting to be used. Not that this type of screen protector needs to be replaced but I keep ripping mine off because my Diztronic case keeps pushing the shield off.

I'm afraid to get the HD one. I have the non HD zagg and it came up on the corners because of my cruzerlite case. I might have to find another case if I get my replacement and pay an extra 5 bucks to get the HD one
Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk 2

I have been waiting on this forever. I used to be a Seidio-only guy for screen protectors, but they were late to the game on the original Galaxy Nexus, and Zagg HD was the only one around... I was an immediate convert...
I now have the N4, and all that was available was the regular Zagg... It's been alright (simply a dream to put on, completely unlike the Seidio ones), but it's been really bad with finger prints, smudging, and direct sunlight viewing... I can't wait to drop the HD version on!!

[REVIEW] Halo Premium Anti-Glare/Matte Screen Protector

Promised to do a review on this screen protector, so paulo this one's for you. Haha. Well I've had this screen protector on for about 4 weeks now, and I absolutely love it. I would definitely recommend it, especially for those on a budget. A $5.95 well spent.
Pros:
Dry application
Precise cut outs
Great touch responsiveness (Swyping with this bad boy is a breeze.)
No fingerprints
No smudges
Better visibility in sunlight
Looks sexy lol
Cons:
Took me 2 out of the 3 protectors to get it on right, or without bubbles. Maybe I'm just not good at that.
Screen quality degradation (This is expected with a anti-glare/matte screen protector. There is some pixelation, which is really noticeable on white backgrounds.)
You can but it HERE.
Pictures that took me forever.

Thanks for the review. I already ordered mine and just wanted to check out some more images of it. Out of curiosity, what case are you using? Also is there a notice gap between the protector and the lip of the case? The first few images make it seem like it, but the rest make the gap appear small.

I'm guessing you are taking about the difference between this picture of the screen protector:
vs
Well there are two reasons.
1. I didn't apply the screen protector perfectly. You can also see the little bubbles created by dust left on the screen. So I took it off, and tried again.
2. Two different cases. I doubt this affects it, however, considering I switch the cases out per week and the gap between the screen protector and the case doesn't increase or shrink.
I have two cases. The white one the Mercury TPU Nexus 4 case(comes in many different colors), and the black one is the Acase Superleggera Pro Hybrid dual layer Nexus 4 case(also comes in different assortments).

I'm also using this screen protector and I love it too,great price ya can't go wrong with these. ????

I bought this screen protector 3 months ago but never used it, as it looks like a hassle to apply if it takes going through most of them to get one that is applied properly. I just kept the stock plastic protector on mine; maybe after that gets destroyed I will give it a try.

its pretty simple just be quick, and i would day do it in the restroom, less dust in the air. always works for me.

I've installed countless screen protectors for me and friends. For the wet ones, you definitely want to be in a steamy bathroom as that helps settle the dusts. The dry ones, need to be done quickly. You can slip a small piece of tape between the screen and the screen protector to grab some of the dust. The stickiness of the tape beats the static force created by the protector. Not sure of its technical name.
My silliest method was to put the phone in the middle, on top of a fan blowing air upwards. That way it created a space where dust will not be. It worked perfectly.

I mean, I guess there is. But to notice the bubbling you would have to nitpicking or looking in with a magnifying glass (not really). I'd say the bubbling on the side is about .25 cm from the edge. Really slight, and with my case on you can't notice it.

Rhino Shield Shatterproof screen protector for Note 4
You should buy a shatterproof Rhino Shield screen protector for your note 4 it's very durable and your display will not break. Go to evolutivelabs (.) com to pre order now

The Metal Slate Hybrid is back at $3.49 + $3 ship
Now the wallet is $3.49 + $3 ship
Now the Tough Armor is $3.49 + $3 ship
Slim Armor (White) now $3.49 + $3
tempered GLAS TR Slim also $3.49 + $3 again

Nope.

obviously dead by now since it has been like 6 hours but I grabbed 3 of of the Glas.TRs and one of each of the cases. I'll decide between the neo hybrid and the slim armor since that seems a little redundant

These must be flash deals or something because I have yet to see any on note 4 accessories

Wouldn't using a glass screen protector on the Note 4 have issues with the finger print reader, since it would leave the home button feeling like a hole. This was not an issue with the Note 3 because you could use one of those home button sticky things.

ahh thanks for the tip. i hate those buttoms that stick on the home button so i probably wont run a screen protector on my note 4 then

Looks like Spigen just pulled out the Glass screen protector from their site for the Note 4 and Amazon shows "Currently unavailable". Maybe they figured that what I posted would create an issue with the finger print reader (or the round glass that meets the Note 4 metal frame).
They could use the same design for the home bottom like this screen protector.

Full body skin?

Are any companies making a full body skin for the Moto X? I actually just want to put it around the metal edges to give it grip. I find them a little slippery. I may have to just take a skin for a different phone and cut it with scissors if no one makes one :/

Skinomi is the only one so far.

My delivery date is between the 6th and the 9th and I got the carbon fiber one to cover a very unsightly self made blemish. I haven't used Skinomi or Xtremeguard in a couple years but I do remember the xtreme being really grippy, especially if there's moisture on your hand.

How does it feel? Im looking for something to give me grip on the back and sides.

I don't notice any change in the grip, maybe a little and as you can see I didn't use the pieces and I never do because I occasionally need to use a case. My back plate is the black plastic which is a fingerprint magnet, the skin remedies that.

I did too and I was disappointed there is no cut out for the dimple.

I got and applied the skinomi techskin yesterday myself. Overall I like how the skin feels. The back and the sides feel grippier, which was one of the two reasons I bought the skin. (The other was for some protection from scratches on the body.) My biggest issues with it right now is that the back skin is a few millimeters small in both direction, which leaves a bit exposed. The other is that the screen is pretty tricky to apply properly. It's tackier than the screen, I already know there are going to be blemishes from application. (My own fault.) Also I don't have a heat gun, so it may start peeling.

Does Skinomi techskin require glue to apply tha back skin???
