I had the carbon fiber poetic case for the original fire and it worked great. I picked this bone up and hopefully I will have it waiting for me at my door tonight or tomorrow.

got this case and its junk. The inside two "grabbers" that hold onto the kindle don't fully lock on. So when you flip it open it pops out. Gonna have to buy a new case damn.

I got this case as well and its very nice overall. I don't have the issue with the case mot holding the device firm, but also got the email from Poetic that they are sending a second case anyway. Nice to have two cases for 6 bucks.

I just got this case, it feels pretty cheap but it's worth the $7 and some change that I paid. I have no issues of the device not fitting or being loose inside the case. FYI, The bottom two grips are looser by design so the device can swing out and angle itself on the case.

I know they should be looser, poetics on every tablet I own. What should happen is it shouldn't just pop out when you are holding it on the opposite side of the binding. I don't even squeeze it and it pops out. Trust me poetic is/was my favorite budget case, I looked for it as soon as the kindle arrived.

Poetic sent me an updated version of the case for free. From what I can tell, it has better grips to hold on the body of the Kindle.

Same here great case. I noticed th clasp that holds the cover shut isn't as tight either. Oak completely satisfied now. My wife loves her slim book case from them as well.

The amazon case is the best i've seen. I know they are expensive but well worth it. Very good quality and auto wake/sleep function.
Contact Poetic cases off of amazon. They make killer cases and even copies of the official amazon case for about 20 percent of the price. Great warranty and excellent customer service.

I ended up changing my mind, and going with the stock amazon case.
I'm not really liking it though. Fit is very nice, but when the cover is opened all the way against the back of the tablet, and you're holding it, the edges of the case are kind of "sharp", and dig in, at least the way I hold it.
It looks nice, but I'm not 100% sure I'd recommend it to anybody.
Ive bought this one for $15

Unfortunately it is a knockoff of the Case Crown, also sold on Amazon. It has one flaw (major) and one minor one for me. First, the Kindle is housed in the case UPSIDE DOWN! Didn't know there was an upside down? Shut you Kindle .9 down. reboot with the camera on your right side. Notice that the icon comes up upside down? !!! No big deal? You will find ESPN and Dish (slingbox) to name a couple In the instant of the Case Crown, you can rotate the holder 180 degrees so that the .9 is held correctly. Unfortunately that defeats the magnetic On off feature. The case is MUCH larger than the Amazon case making it just a tad more difficult for those of us who do not have extra large mitts to hold it in one MITT for an extended period of time. The added bulk and weight was just not my cup of (bourbon), Tea.
I sent my Case Crown back last week right after the Kindle case arrived. The Amazon case is expensive I think, could have at least had Plush leather and the sharp ridges on the right side of the case fall just where my thumb sets. but then, it's the only game in town at the moment.

Addition to my last note on the .9 Case alternatives. ANY bifold case will set the Fire, be it 7" OR 8.9" upside down in the case.
The Amazon case is pretty much the only one that puts the camera towards the spine of the case. Its only really an issue if you have to hold the spine on the left. Open it with the spine on the right and everything is dandy. I think of it more a design flaw with the kindle than the case makers. They also decided to put the power port on the bottom when setup in landscape mode (like most folks will use for extended viewing, or using with a keyboard, etc. Some of the trifold cases get the ports off the ground a bit more where you might be able to squeeze the power in, but its something to look for when buying if that's important to you.
I have this one from Poetic http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00AAKLJ8C/ref=oh_details_o03_s00_i00
9 bucks and it's perfect to me.

[Review] Exact Armor Case

Hey guys,
I just wanted to give a short review of a case I'm using, because I absolutely love it. It's the Exact Armor Case.
I bought it a week and a half ago, at the time it was only $3.95, at the time of me writing this it is $7.95 on Amazon. It's VERY similar to the Ionic Guardian Armor Case. There was some concern because I believe that on Amazon this case in the pictures doesn't show a cut out on the back for the speaker, but it does indeed have one.
It feels really good in the hand. I wasn't sure how I was going to feel about the dots on the back, but they ended up not being bad, and really make it so the phone doesn't slide out of your hand/off a table when you are holding it/sitting it down. I also have an i-Blason TPU case and I liked it but wanted something with a little bit more protection. I love the rubbery cover on the buttons on the Exact case, it makes it incredibly easy to push those buttons, which were more difficult to push on the i-Blason case in my opinion.
It feels really good and sturdy in the hand, and I love the way it feels. It doesn't add any more then the i-Blason case does when you're holding it in my opinion, except for on the corners, but you don't really notice those when holding it. All of the ports (mini USB and headphones) are accessible, however when I tried to plug a headphone jack from my car in it was a little too big and didn't fit in the hole cut in the case, but using a pair of headphones fits just fine.
I'm usually rough on phones, and so I wanted to get a sturdy case until hopefully an Otterbox comes out, which I will then buy and see if I like it more then this case. I HAVE dropped my phone twice over the past 72 hours or so using the case, and there was no damage to the phone. Once was getting out of my car and the phone fell onto gravel, and the second was just when I was pulling it out of my pocket I dropped it. (Yes, I'm clumsy, and I need to try harder to keep it safe.) There is no damage at all to the phone.
The front of the case does slide over the front, so you can sit the phone screen down and it doesn't touch whatever is underneath it. There is a small lip there, but so far it hasn't deterred me in anyway touching the screen/typing/swyping.
Please feel free to ask any questions, I'll be more then happy to answer. And before anyone asks, I just put on a Xtremeguard Screen Protector on literally 5 minutes before I took the pictures, so if the screen looks weird that's why, as it has to dry out and such.
If anyone asks, I can also talk about the i-Blason case a little.
I can't post links to the cases above because I don't have 10 posts yet :/ Just search on Amazon, you'll find them all, and after I post 10 times I'll come back and add the links in.

Nobody knows for sure but like most of the stuff in production you can probably expect it will be released before the end of January.
I think chances are you will get this one and then decided (unless you some how destroy it) that you don't want to shell out for an Otterbox.

It's terrific quality, and super cheap, and who knows, even if Otterbox comes out with one, I like this one an awful lot!
I would really like to get this case but the shipping to Canada kills the deal. $13 is more than the case itself. Anyone know if someplace else sells this case? EBay has nothing.

Only there's no Otterbox case in production for the Nexus 4. Alas.
I got this case when it was $3.95 as well, great deal.
My TPU case was causing problems with my Skinomi screen protector but no problems with this case.
I currently have this case on... It sometimes lifts my xo skin screen protector so I have to push the screen protector down. For those who need even more protection there is a case on ebay called the Rugged Hybrid case, for 10-12 buck. The case is a beast but I'm waiting for someone to review on it before I purchase one.

Is the lift because of the slight inward flex around the edges that one gets when gripping the phone? or is it always in contact with the XO?

It's because of the inward flex around the edges when I grip it. It does seem like the case is always in contact with it, but doesn't pull up the protector unless I grip it tight or push on it.

Just received my case earlier today and I have to say it may be my favorite. I own the iBlason in black, Diztronic TPU in black as well as the Cruzerlite Androidified in white. The price vs. protection offered is astounding. I have to say it is very much comparable to my parents Ballistic Shell Gel Series case they both have on their Galaxy S III. The material isn't quite as "nice" as the Ballistic but for a $7 case, comparing it to a $30 from Ballistic or $15 on Amazon, it is certainly a no brainer.

Anyone want to comment on whether the case grips your pocket? That's the only thing holding me back from pulling the trigger on this over the diztronic you case.

Mine is fairly easy to pull out of my pocket. I don't wear super tight pants, but if I did it might be a problem. The rubbery part on the case is a lint magnet when you put it in your pocket but it isn't bad putting in or pulling out.

Seidio Active case

I think it looks really nice in white, the kickstand could be useful. But its kinda expensive :/ Hope they get finished with it soon!
What do you think?

Looks awesome and I've already present ordered one from a website. They are pricey but well made. Plus they make the best holsters. Unfortunately i wasn't able to order the holster for it from the site i purchased from, but will the day they come out. Out of all of them, the red looks nicest to me with that anodized look it has, but being military I cant wear a phone in uniform that isn't black or grey.

Yes, jay above you had it already and he hates it. It's kinda of a touchy subject with him lol. But I never bought a surface case for my devices because I hated the way they have to put on. Kinda like taking off sweats before a shower after working out lol.
But I have active cases for my Sensation, which is my wife's phone now, my Nexus 7 and before the N7 I had one for my Kindle Fire. They are all well made. Even though there's a chemical smell like it was fresh off the mold lol, it dissipates within a weeks time.
I for one can't wait for the Active combo. I love the holsters as well. Right now I am using a Gnex Seidio Surface holster with my diztronic ultra thin shell and it works, but doesn't seat to my satisfaction.

Sadly yes, the Active does not allow it for wireless charging. But I intend to use the Active case on travel. Being it airplane or train, I will be using the kickstand on those trips. And when I am traveling, I am not bringing any of my wireless chargers, so wireless charging would be a moot point.
For day to day use, I use the Cruzerlite XDA case at this point with the Surface holster, so I am good at this point.
A lot of people here might not like to hear me say it but the active can mess up your phone. Not the actives fault... I'd say its the crappy chrome bezels fault. Its pretty easy to get particles under the silicone on this case. It has great impact protection but I did get some scuffs on the bezel above the speaker after using it a week straight. Also somehow the magnet from the kickstand or something with the case pug some strange hazing that won't go away on my rear wet apply screen protector. Something to watch out for. The marks are square in shape etc. I'm hoping it will go back to normal after some time but it doesn't I can just buy a new screen protector for the back. Back to tpu with the surface holster for now.

I have to clarify my last point. The marks on the screen protector go away after a few hours out of the case.

Embedded for your pleasure.
Anyone have experience with a Ballistic Shell Gel case on a previous phone? I know it isn't available for the N4 yet but I'm torn on getting that or the Seidio Active. I don't care much for the kickstand so that's not a huge deal for me. I'm also guessing the Ballistic case won't allow wireless charging either since it looks like it has similar construction/thickness to the Seidio Active.
I think it's the metal kickstand that prevents the charging, not the extra thickness.

Comparing my ballistic galaxy nexus to the nexus 4 with active, the ballistic is much thicker! The silicone on the ballistic is thicker and so is the hard plastic. You need the convert holster if you want to use a holster with the ballistic. I have no doubt it will be an awesome case but it will not let you wireless charge.

[Review]Acase dual layer Case

First, the case's full name is Acase Superleggera Pro Hybrid dual layer Case for LG Google Nexus 4.
Link on amazon.com: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00B4I2GJU/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
FOr me, the seller shipped from IN, I dont know if they have any other branch. IAmazon said it would be delivered on Thursday, but I have received it on Wednesday.
I am not good at English, so I will use a lot of images to review this case.:laugh: I also take picture the case with the Nexus 4 adapter, so you can compare the demensions.
The case fit perfectly to the phone.
The case has two layers which are seperated. One is soft and one is hard.
I have a back, front and body wet-protector, and this case haven't peel my protector yet. Hopefully it won't. However, with a soft cover, I dont think it will peel any corner off.
THe back of the hard part is smooth. Hence slippery or not, I think it depends on each person. For me, it's not slippery. But the fact is it's smooth, so it can fall off your hand if you're not careful.
Buttons can be used very easily.
I dont have a Wifi charger in case someone ask me for this.
Last thing, any grammar error?
EDIT and WARNING: Because this case has a ruber layer (it has two layers: the soft ruber one and the hard one), it collects dust very easy, especially when you put it in your jeans' pocket. This is no problem to me, with a fiber or tape, I can easily remove them.
I also confirm again, this case doesn't peel the corner of your screen protector off.
However, with the Ballistic one, it will peel your corner off very easily because the top and bottm of the ballistic aren't fixed. I have borrowed the Ballistic one from a friend and used it for two days, at the end of each day, I had to apply my screen protector again. If you need some images on the Ballistic one, tell me, I will do some for you.
Test.
Image part 3.
Looks like a good alternative to otter box. Thanks for sharing.

I also got this case in white, i absolutely love it except for the fact that it's white, and gets dirty if not taken care of. Other then that, it's awesome. I don't use it now, because i have lens for my phone camera, but when I did use it, i wasn't afraid of dropping it.

Could anyone compare it to the ballistic case ?
This one looks thinner but still looks strong enough to keep protecting the phone from an average drop . :laugh:

I'm still waiting for the Superleggera to arrive (7-10 days). As soon as I get it I'll update what I find, compared to Ballistic Shell Gel SG.
I tried the Ballistic one from a buddy of mine but I personally did not like it. The build quality is very good with the ballistic and it feels like it's going to protect the phone well. But from day to day usability it's not very practical.
The inside silicone piece of the Ballistic is very soft/loose. It fits the phone well but without the support of the hard shell it tends to come off. That is why some people complain that the top and bottom of this case is not very fitting, since there is no hard shell support there.
The soft silicone with the protruding corners of the case sometimes gets stuck taking in/out of pant pockets.
In the YouTube reviews and the pictures by OP by the look of the Superleggera, the silicone seems stiffer than the Ballistic and the hard shell supports all four sides, hence more form fitting than the Ballistic and should not have any pocket issue.
nice review, looks nicer than the two later one i bough a few months back.

it's not just germany, any country outside the US pays around that much to get most things shipped from US amazon. Try to find it on another website.

Acase's are really good I have 1 on both my S3's and love them. I bought a Diztronic for my N4 as these were not available yet. Will be ordering 1 tomorrow.
Can anyone with this case (Acase Superleggera Nexus 4) comment on whether the case lip interferes with edge swiping (e.g. useful to switch tabs in Chrome). Thanks!

How slippery is this case? I'm assuming the hard case (outer cover) is, but not the inside tpu bit. Is that true? So can I remove the hard case and expose the tpu while setting it on an uneven surface?
Your English is not bad at all!

Ringke flex tpu case

Just saw this pop up on Amazon so I ordered a smoked grey one.
I loved ringke cases on all my nexus phones. Very good quality. I have the Samsung flip cover case, generic hard plastic case from eBay, and the Incipio dualshine pro case. I prefer the wallet case right now. The hard plastic case from eBay fits great and keeps the phone super slow and sleek but provides almost no protection.
The Incipio is a tad bulky since it's dual layer protection.
I'll let u all know how the ringke is.
Here's the link.

I went through two already the bottom left corner of both of them were warped. It fit and felt good everywhere except the bottom left ...good luck with yours.
My bottom left is warped also.. other than that case is good

Mine's expected to arrive on the 1st. Never used this company before but seems pretty slim so shouldn't add too much bulk. I don't drop my phones...seriously! My concern is scratching while sliding on a hard surface.
Do you have a picture of what it looks like and also what the warp
Floss did a review on it and he liked it. I just ordered it from Amazon. Be here by Dec. 2

This Ringke case is nowhere near as good as the similar model cryatal case I have for my note 4, as you can see it only has a 3.5 star rating on Amazon. It has a feel of a $3.99 case. But right now there are only a few cases to chose from, so what can we do.
Really like the ringke
Here it is with full screen protector on
Decent case
I received my case on Saturday and I am pleasantly suprised with it. I needed a case because the UAG case I ordered has been put on back-order. I received the smoke edition and it gives my phone (black) a sleek unique look. I've read a few people had warped cases but mine was fine and provided a good snug fit. Case doesn't add bulk to phone and fits my hand well. Keep in mind it is a gel case so it wont protect the phone from a lot of drops but is an excellent case for me until my UAG case comes in. In addition it was only $12 and free 2 day shipping.
Here are some pics of the case you requested.

I don't know about anyone else but the top of my phone doesn't fit securely into the lip of the cover. I can literally run my thumb across the top of the case to separate it from the phone. That's means big trouble if I dropped the phone. If you get this case you still have to be wary of damage if dropped because no way it'll will stay in this case so this should be temporary until you can get a better case ASAP. Really a shame because Rearth cases are normally pretty good.
Just got mine. Very impressed. Great case. Fits tight. Highly recommended.

Love the concept and look. Got mine last week, power button doesnt line up, spen cant be pulled out inless you pull up on the case directly on top of the spen, ir blaster doesnt line up, barely holding the entire top lip. This thing is worth 2 bucks if that.
One good thing i wrote them an email and they said that i received a fluke and they sent me a new one today for free claiming it will fit better. We shall see and i hope so cause i really like it especially how nice and slim it is.

sounds like you got the same "flukey" case I got, but I didn't even bother contacting them I just chunked it in a draw and put the incipio case back on until I can find something thinner that'll actually fit to use. Maybe I'll give them a chance to redeem themselves with a replacement case.
I had a ringke case for my Note 4 and the first one was warped on one side. Clearly an issue they have. Replacement was excellent.
Quick update . Have had this case for a week now and I have no desire to order anything else except the flip wallet. Nice and tight and feels good in the hand. $13 is a good deal for this.

just received the Ringke Flex S from amazon and couldn't be happier. my son literally dropped my phone 3 secs after I put it on and it survived fine.
