MoKo Ultra-Lightweight SlimShell Standing Case on the left and MoKo Slim-fit Folio Cover Case on the right
At first it seemed like an easy choice. The case had to be thin and light and add little to the Kindle Fire HD but offer a reasonable amount of protection. I narrowed the choice to the MoKo Slim-fit Folio Cover Case and the MoKo Ultra-Lightweight SlimShell Standing Case. Both were available on Amazon from BSCstore for $12.95 and free shipping. I had both open in different browser windows and when I made my mind up for the Ultra-Lightweight SlimShell case I hit the buy it button. The next day I got the shipping notification and to my dismay I found I had bought the Slim-fit Folio Cover. Jim at BSCstore must have been reading my mind because about then I got an email from him thanking me for the purchase and if there was anything that wasn’t right to let him know. Hmmm, nice customer service, I thought. I emailed him back and told him what I had done and that I’d return the case and order the SlimShell. He replied and said no hurry to send it back and he would get the other one out right away. I have no affiliation to BSCstore but I like the way they do business.
The Slimfit Folio arrived the next day and to my surprise it wasn’t as thick or heavy as I had expected and the hand strap which I thought would be large and obtrusive was actually a pretty good fit.
The Fire HD clicked in securely and was held in place by 6 lips (4 on the corners and 2 on the sides) and with the cover locked closed I felt assured that the whole thing could take a few knocks and the Fire HD would survive nicely. The faux leather feels like real leather and the soft fabric interior gives great protection to the screen and case. The cover automatically shuts down and restarts the screen when you close and open it. The edges of the fire are well protected and the case has a cutout on the hinge to allow access to the USB and HDMI ports when the cover is closed. The cover closes and locks due to a lip on the outer edge which clips round the edge of the Fire HD. It really secures the cover closed but is well padded and there seemed no danger of it marking or scoring the edge of the Kindle.
The cover doesn’t fold back completely when using the Fire HD in one hand but it isn’t a problem. Actually it is the fact that the Fire HD is fairly wide that makes one handed holding more of a chore than say the Nexus 7. However, the hand strap does make it easy to secure everything to your hand.
Propping the Fire HD up to watch a movie requires removing it from the bottom 2 securing lips, but it is easy to do and the ridges in the inside of the case cover allows a number of angles.
All in all I was pleasantly surprised with the Moko Slim-fit.
Two days later the Ultra-Lightweight case arrived. Definitely much lighter and I doubt the Fire HD would survive as well if it took a tumble. The Fire HD clipped into a form fitting shell which protected the sides and corners but left openings to access the buttons and ports.
The cover was thin soft plastic which had a certain amount of grip to it when it was doubled back. It also folded in half and hooked into a slot on the back to allow the Fire HD to be propped up to watch a movie.
The cover has the same switching on and off effect as the Slimfit folio but it doesn’t lock into place. However an elastic strap at the back of the case allows the cover to be held closed. It can also be used to secure the case to your hand.
The fact that the cover folds completely back does make it easier to hold one handed
Both cases had good ‘vents” for the speakers and access to the buttons and ports were easy.
The problem now is; which case do I keep? If you want thin and light then it has to be the Ultra-Lightweight but if you want a bit more protection for not a lot of extra weight and bulk then it has to be the Slimfit folio…. Decisions, decision……
In fact both cases are well made and do the job very well and for 13 bucks can’t be beat.

As an FYI the Slim Flit also comes in multiple colors. My wife received the Lime green one from Amazon and loves it.

I ordered "MoKo Ultra-Lightweight SlimShell Standing Case" which is just a perfect case for KFHD. Thanks for recommendation.

Does the magnet help hold the cover in place? or is there nothing that holds it in place (without the strap)?
I'm wondering how it will be if the cover gets bent back alot and used as a stand. I'm thinking the plastic will want to keep that shape and gradually not want to close.

Could MoKo cases be screwing up my Nexus 7??
I need to know if anyone else is experiencing similar problems with the Nexus 7 and the MoKo case.
I am now on my THIRD Nexus 7 (all warranty replacements). Both defective units suddenly went bad in the same way. The units became unstable, bringing up software unasked, then starting and stopping after the initial splash screen leaving me unable to get into the software or my WiFi. Finally, each unit refused to turn off. I tried both a factory reset and a hard reset (working with Google tech support), but both units refused to reset. Crazy, huh?
My Nexus 7s have "lived" in my living room. I've not tried to root them, or to put weird off-putting software or looked at virus-prone websites...and yet both units have gone south in the identical way.
The one constant element with both units has been my use of a MoKo case (purchased from Amazon) with the magnetic closure . . . and I've wondered if that magnet is causing some unanticipated, unwarranted change in the Nexus 7 that would cause such a severe disruption that it can't be reset and can't turn off.
I've asked Google tech support about this, but there are enough notes in these threads indicating that Google is no help.
Anyone experiencing these problems with the Nexus 7, especially if you have your unit protected in the MoKo case? Please let me know. I really like the case--it's the best out there for the Nexus 7--but I don't want to risk having a third unit die on me if the case is to blame.

Quick Review of T-Mobile Gel Protector Case

I got my T-Mobile Gel Protector Case in the mail today for my G2.
I bought it from Daydeal. I guess I can't post a link here cause I'm "new" so here is the exact name info from the site:
OEM T-Mobile Gel Protector Case for T-Mobile G2, Black
Brand/model: T-Mobile SUPA35547
The material is very high quality and feels great in my hand(s).
It fits PERFECTLY on to the phone and does not pull off or slip at all.
It overs the power button/sleep button but has a slight indent/bumper for it which works perfect. It has not affected the functionality of the device whatsoever. This same "bumper" style button covers the volume rocker and camera buttons as well. Functionality is seamless.
The slight added thickness to the back of the phone makes typing on the slide out keyboard even more comfortable. It also makes the keyboard easier to flip back. The finish is not overly grippy but is not slippery.
If you rely on the trackpad some of the edges of the case may get in the way. I personally never use it, so I won't even notice the slight interference.
Overall I am very satisfied with my purchase.
If you have any questions let me know and I will get back to you.
Thanks!
Pictures would be nice.
I agree, this gel case is amazing, I bought it last night from my local retail store.
Best investment byfar for this phone.

I just want to add that this gel case clips on to the phone. It is textured so there's added grip.
Definitely a problem if you use the track pad (who would?? )
In comparison to OEM Blackberry cases, this is more thick, stronger and clips in. The Blackberry gel cases just kinda wrapped around and was flimsy.
Definitely worth it, but adds bulkiness to your phone. Everyone that checks out my phone--that's their first comment.
I like the feel of the gel case, but it is more difficult to remove from my pants pockets when compared to the Body Glove or OEM plastic cases.
I bought this from t-mobile but I may return it for a regular pouch... the bulkiness doesn't bother me... and I love the snug fit of it... however... with BatteryLife installed, it reports the temperature of my batt as above 100 degrees most of the time where as i teeter between 70 and 90 degrees with it off... I'm thinking this might be burning my battery more than I want it to but idk... anyone else experience the heat?
No heat increases for me so far. If so, I really don't notice it. I can get through a whole day of browsing, games, music, and downloading with WiFi enabled and still have 40% left at the end of the day.
I have been using this case since G2 purchase(9/24, I have friends on the inside). LOVE IT. Great grip.
I already dropped my phone (fell off my lap when getting out of the car) and it saved my ass. Just a tad bulky, but well worth the safety. Doesn't interfere with any operation cept for pressing the "P" on on-screen Swype keyboard. (I have fat fingers).
There is almost no need for a screen protector with this case if you are fairly careful when handling expensive gadgets. Unless you put it in a pocket with keys, or drop it in a gravel pit, the screen is very well protected. (I still use one though)
This protector is well worth it if you like saving your device from damage

I like the track pad - provides precise navigation. Thanks for the info - I'll pass on the gel case.

yeah figured out Tango kept running in the background and heating it up.. once i uninstalled that, everything is back to normal. Definitely keeping this case.
I also have this case and it does feel great in the hands, it isn't too bulky as well as protects the phone everywhere...HOWEVER....
I have a question for I noticed a potential flaw or it could possibly be the device.
My hinge wasn't loose or anything like that known hardware flaw. Pretty solid device out of the box and the screen was flush to the keyboard. I got this case from a retail store the 2nd day I had my G2. Used it for 24 hrs and the following day, I took it off to show someone how nice the phone looked without it (I didn't have any issues or struggled removing the case btw). I noticed that the screen wasn't so flush to the keyboard and seemed raised a bit. Also, when I pressed home or search (or any area near the bottom left/right of screen) it seemed to be a tad loose, where it would tap the keyboard. Place the case back on, back to a solid device that doesn't repeat what I noticed with it off.
I also tested 3 different G2s to see if their screen did that and it didn't. They weren't using any type of case/protection....
I did call T-mobile and already ordered another G2 through my buyer's remorse. I'm not so sure if I want to continue using the case "IF" it is raising the screen from its out of the box, snug fit with the bottom of the device. If any of you could try to remove the case, and see if what happened with mine happens to yours. If not, I can call it as a defective device and continue to use the case. As of now, as much as I like it and NEED to protect my phone, I am also considering returning this as well.
Please share your findings, I'm very interested in this potential issue.
Effect on hinge
I noticed this too. The snaps that connect between the front and back pieces of the phone cause a tiny separation. With the case on the hinge is much looser. I removed the front part of the case and it does snap tight again. It also feels much better overall. If you do use the gel case, I recommend not attaching or removing the front. You'll still get the nice grip on the back and the most tightness of the device without it.
On mine, the gel case clips are so thin that they don't interfere with the hinge operation. I actually was reading this post at T-Mobile, talking with my buddy who works there about it. He pulled out a fresh G2 from a box and compared it with mine and there was no difference whatsoever. The fresh out of the box had a small gap already because of the "bumper pads" installed on the corners.
Maybe you guys that are experiencing troubles could take an emery board(fingernail file) and file the down the thickness of the clips. Take the case off and use the file to shave off as much as you need.
Good luck!
I had read about separation on gel cases for other slider type phones, which is one reason I didn't spring for the t-mo gel case. Can anyone else confirm? Maybe take some edge-on shots of the phone with and without the gel-case on to compare the width of the gap between the two halves.

that is how mine is aswell, fits perfect.
Mine fits perfecft as well. Biggest complaint being the interference with the track ball/pad. Just a matter of getting used to it is all.

Seidio Case Review for Skyrocket

I have been using Seidio cases for multiple generations of phones now going way back to the original Blackberry Pearl. I have given a few other styles a shot at times but I keep finding myself coming back to the Seidio cases. They have always held up well and the fact that they have a combination holster that works specifically with their cases was a bonus.
I have to backtrack a little before I get into this review. Had it not been for a miniscule moment of innapropriate anger, I would not have a new phone in my possession. Had it not been for the Seidio case on that phone, I would not have been able to get into it for all my needed information. So, in a matter of seconds I had taken a full pitching arm swing with phone in hand and aimed at garage floor. In all fairness, I had worn that Atrix out to the point where it was on its last leg(maybe subconsciously I was yearning for a new phone). Anyway, I digress, the phone ended up with its screen shattered and the shell slightly bent(I hit the concrete directly on the corner). To the credit of the case, it never came off and the phone stayed on the whole time without rebooting. I put a piece of packing tape over the screen, so as not to get cut by the shards of glass poking out, and I was able to swipe up, down, left and right. However ugly the situation, if that case wasnt on there, the phone wouldnt have been accessible. Now some might argue that having another brands case that rhymes with "hotter fox" might have saved it completely, I find it incredibly uncomfortable to use a phone that becomes 3 times its size because of a case. Nuff said.
I ended up replacing the Atrix with a new Skyrocket. This phone is downright awesome and puts the Atrix to shame in every department. However, we arent here for a phone review, so lets get on with it. I knew I wanted a case on the phone immediately so I picked up one of those slick rubberized cases(skin?) that stretches over the back of the phone and around the sides. This was a decent option but I am part of the 1% out there who wears their phone on their hip at work, I hate putting my phone in the pocket(unless Im wearing jeans). So, I needed a case that had a holster and thats where Seidio came in.
I looked through Seidios options and saw they had two types of cases for the phone and holsters that matched. Since this phone was pretty big, I wanted to stay with the slimmer type case that I had been used to in the past which was the "Surface" style. They also have an "Active" style which is apparently much more protective like the previously mentioned brand but more attractive. With this case I ordered it as a combo with the holster. One of my main concerns was how this phone would look on the hip, in a case, being how large it is in the first place. In retrospect, choosing a black case would have made the most sense for that argument. However, I chose the blue case because, well, I like blue, and I got the phone in white, so I figured I would nickname my phone the "Smurf".
A week or so later I received the package with the case and the holster. First thing I noticed was how absolutely cool the blue finish was on the case. It has almost a metallic hue to it yet is fully plastic. The feel of the case is as it has been in the past; not too grippy but not too slippery. It has a nice texture to it that lends itself to being able slide in and out of a pocket without pulling out lint but also not feeling like it will slide out of your hand when holding it.
I put the phone into the case and the pieces snapped together with authority. Take note, the first time you need to disconnect the two pieces will be a struggle. After that however, it will be an easy task. Just seems that the pieces need to get broken in for a bit before they come apart with ease. As I was holding the phone with the case on it, I noticed that it didnt feel that much bigger with it on. The case is really tight fitting and seems to just barely come off the "Surface" of the phone. There is enough protection above the front bezel though that you can place the phone face down and it wont touch the screen. The only thing that I wasnt too keen on was how deep the cut was to reach the power button. It seems to be at such an angle that you have to get your fingertip in there to press it right. Maybe over time that will change but at first it was an odd behavior.
Next up was wearing the phone to work on the holster. How did it go? Awesome! There is no denying that when you have a phone of this size on your hip, it does get noticed. There is no getting around the fact that nowadays, nobody wants a phone the size of the old V60, and because of that, you are hauling around a nice sized piece of web viewing real estate. I have to say though, I got tons of compliments on the case color. Everyone who saw it said they had never seen a color like that before, or as they held it in their hand, a case that looked so cool. The phone was light to begin with and the case did nothing to hurt that. The holster is very grippy but seems to disappear from the hip when the phone is in it. The weight distribution keeps the phone very close to the body and feels like its just there coming along for the ride. The holster is very sturdy and the phone clicks into it with a loud informative SNAP.
After about a week of wearing the phone daily to work in the holster and a few instances of slipping it into my jeans, I wholeheartedly recommend Seido cases yet again. After saving my old phone the way it did and the new materials they seem to be using, Seidio has a hit on their hands. With how well their manufacturing is and perfectly fit around the phone these cases are, theres really no reason to look anywhere else for something to protect your phone. Oh, and since my original rant, I have had no problems using the power key anymore.
And now the pics:

Thanks for the helpful review. I enjoyed the back story as well.
I think if I do end up purchasing this phone, the Seidio case is the first I'll try.
Thanks for the review, man!
I can second a recommendation for this case.
To be honest I just found I enjoyed my phone a bit more without a case on it, admittedly having to be a bit more careful with it.
If I had any complaint about the case it would be that where the two pieces connect. I can see where that was going to potentially be an annoyance down the road.
I have one and it's to slick for me. I run my phone nekkid now. The case cured me of wanting a case.
my .02 worth.
I got one today and it seems pretty nice so far. As mentioned, it can be hard to get it apart (off the phone) to begin with until you can figure a method that works best. I already have a Seidio Active case and I like it alot, but it is a bit bulkier than the Surface case. I think I will like this one because it works in my phone side carry case that I use at work. The Active was to bulky to use so I had to change over to my Diztronics case during the week. With this case, I think I'll be able to use it in the side carry case as well as in the holster that I bought with it. Just for some information, it seems that the Active holster works as well as the Surface holster for carrying purposes while the Surface case is on the phone. The phone seems to fit into both of them just the same so you might want to save some money if you already have an Active holster.
Why in the heck is there no kickstand??
I LOVE this case and my friends are always bragging about theirs having an awesome kickstand so they can watch movies on their puny S2 screens... Can anyone explain why the big, bueatiful SkyRocket cant stand up like a rocket? A rocket needs a stand to fly!!! Come on guys! Show me how stupid I am and where to get a kickstand case

Indeed it does. Ive been using it since i got my SR in February. I love it. Very sturdy and protective without adding much bulk.
Sent from low Earth orbit with my Skyrocket.
I had this case but, returned it. The bottom part was a tad loose and would shift a bit in my hand. Not much but, enough to notice each time and make me give a grunt of displeasure. Also, the headphone jack area was just not large enough for a couple of my connections( I aux jack into home stereo and car stereo). Finally, the openings around the rocker switches just felt wierd to me. Low on the backside and high on the front side. A friend of mine has an Elago case for his Note. But, that they don't make one for the Skyrocket. That is the style I am looking for. I'm picky I admit. I would rather go naked than uncomfortable.
This looks great. I wanted something slimmer than my Seidio Active case.
Thanks!
Looks good, gonna switch it up.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using XDA
Just fyi, if you have a Best Buy near you, Seidio sells under the brand name Platinum Cases and it's actually $10-15 cheaper for the combo set with the holster.
I've used seidio for a while too now and when I was searching for a case I found this out and saved myself a good amount of cash since I also didn't have to pay for delivery... Same construction, no problems. Although I think the only color they have is black... I did notice the bottom is a tiny bit loose but I ended up buying a ghost armor screen protector and since I was there ended up getting the full body so now the case fits like a glove.
Hyper, with ya on the 1% that like to carry phone in the holster...lol I even wear it with jeans altho shirts always cover it...lol

Are there any SLEEVES that fit the TF700T tightly without keyboard?

This acer case fits perfectly and acts as a stand. Was recommended this from the whirlpool forums.
I have the Targus one from Best Buy. It acts as a stand and has a pocket for a stylus as well. The only thing I don't like about it is you have to leave it open to have access to the port for charging.

Targus Hughes Leather Portfolio, and my Infinity
Was at the Home store / Ross yesterday with my wife and found the "Targus Hughes Leather Portfolio for the iPad" on clearance for $7 (yes - SEVEN dollars). I googled the dimensions of my Infinity and borrowed a tape measure from the clerk to measure the pocket of the case. It's close, but looked like it would work so I figured for $7 who cares if it doesn't fit. Nice magnetic closure tab too (it tucks as into a tab for a more secure fit as well). The real leather surface is amazing, and smells like my old tried and true leather jacket - mmmmmm lol. So far nothing but good things to say about the craftsmanship. Only had it for a day - so I will update my thoughts over the next week of hard daily use.
I am here to say it DOES fit. It is a tight fit but after leaving the tablet in the case overnight it is now a snug/perfect fit! The case is awesome. Check out the reviews online for it here: (Amazon)
Here are some pix:

I was looking at slip cases for my TF700T today... hoping to find one that would work well with or without the keyboard dock. I brought home this leather Targus (Staples selling it for $19), as well as a zipper closed slip case from Swiss Gear (A7) and Targus. Thought I'd compare and then return whichever I didn't like.
The leather Targus case is beautifully made -- I would have expected them to charge something more like $35 for this. No way this could ever stretch to accept the dock, so the only possibility is the tab alone. I tried it -- incredibly tight, and actually needed two of us to get the device back out of the case without risking damaging the TF700T. I had just talked myself into keeping the Swiss Gear, and returning the two Targus cases (leather one you reviewed, and the black neoprene case). Now I'm debating... If I can really loosen up the leather one enough, it really is gorgeous - especially for the money, and even at double what you paid. I can definitely see days when I'd travel or just go to meetings with the tablet itself, and then the leather case would be perfect. Other times, I'll want the keyboard and extra battery capacity from the dock... so I'd need to keep the Swiss Gear too...
Decisions!!!
I bought this one in green.
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Brand-New...ccessories&hash=item256c45681b#ht_5224wt_1111
Looks great, and has nice "thick" cushioning for the tab.
My sleeve is a handmade sleeve (not by me, I'll post the link at the bottom) made specifically for the Infinity. Please keep in mind that I took these shots at an impromptu time as I saw this post and I took it with a crappy camera during the cloudy morning, so although it might look a little undesirable, it really isnt.
Anyways, the sleeve has a frontal pocket specifically for the unattached dock, and both compartments are pretty snug. Even if you don't feel like constantly disconnecting the dock, the main compartment can also hold the dock+tablet. The sleeve is padded and it looks pretty too! I know you asked for a sleeve that can fit snugly without a keyboard, but I was thinking that others might be interested in this. I also don't have a keyboard (yet) so I use the pocket for other random things
What I like about this shop is that the person even accepts requests for customization. What I REALLY wanted to do was pay a little more to add two smaller, cubic pockets on the frontal keyboard pocket so I can fit smaller things like SD cards, cables, etc. but I didn't because I needed to save money (college student). You might think it's a little expensive, but it's well worth the money I spent for it. I HIGHLY recommend this sleeve. By the way, this person make sleeves for other devices as well. Enjoy!

No - at least the one I tried (same model - purchased at Staples) could not. As a matter of fact, the first time I insert the tablet (TF700T) itself in the case, it was so snug that I needed to have someone else hold the case by the edges while I found a grip on the tablet that would allow me to wiggle it out without crushing the glass -- it was that tight.
Per the OP, the case will definitely stretch, and I believe that with a bit of patience you can stretch it enough so that the tablet itself would slide in and out relatively easily. I found an old hardcover book that was a tight fit (don't want to use my $500 tablet as a leather stretching tool!) and let it sit in the case for a couple of hours, after which I found that the tablet would go in easily, and could be removed safely with one hand. Still too snug, but I imagine that overnight stretching would probably do the trick.
No way, though, that I can imagine squeezing the dock in there also. A real pity, as the case is nicely made from what appears to be nice belting leather - thick, tough but soft-surfaced, pleasant but unobtrusive smell like a leather jacket. Certainly appears classy. Too limited in application, though, for my taste. So - back it went to Staples.
Same day I tried that one I also brought home two others to try: 10" tablet sleeves (black microfiber / polyester) -- both simple padded sleeves with a single zipper across the long edge. One from Swiss Gear had excellent cushioning inside -- a rubbery material with raised bumps across the surface; another one from Targus was cheaper, but the cushioning was reminiscent of an extremely thin old-fashioned foam rubber pillow -- the Swiss Gear definitely provided more shock protection.
I wound up trying the Swiss Gear sleeve for a day, and wound up finding it really annoying to have to hold the tablet in my hand the entire time I traveled and walked around NYC. I also realized that simply holding it in my hand wouldn't really protect it if somebody in a crowded situation like that (NY - midtown, and subways) bumped into me, so I wound up holding it with my arm bent so it would trapped between my hand and bicep as I wove through crowded streets.
Hard to juggle this also if you need to stop in a public restroom, if you stop to buy a cup of coffee, etc.
By the end of the day, I realized that there was no way I'd be happy simply carrying the tablet around in a case like that. At most, I'd use the case to protect it in a briefcase, or maybe if I were about to drive somewhere and bring the tablet along.
I wound up returning all 3 cases, and have none right now. If I carry it to another appointment, for the moment I'll simply put it in a briefcase or business backpack. Still hunting for a truly usable case.

[User Review] MyBat Tuff Hybrid protector case

Aloha!
So i've looked and searched, but there doesn't seem to be any reviews of this case for the Google Nexus 4 (LG e960).
I've also had experiences in the past with MyBat cell phone cases, Both good and bad.
So let's get started. I'll try to give you as complete a review as possible.
Where to get it:
http://www.mybat.com/Product/TUFF_Hybrid_Protector_Covers-17-288-0.html
I got mine from: Cell Pro (California, US) via E-Bay: http://www.ebay.com/sch/cellpro/m.html?_nkw=&_armrs=1&_from=&_ipg=25&_trksid=p3686
(Free shipping, to Hawaii and it got here in TWO (2) days!!!)
This one in particular is called: LG Nexus 4 E960 Hybrid Hard Case Silicone Cover Black / White Skin TUFF
Review scoring:
Material -- 8.0/10 - Hard plastic parts of the case didn't feel flimsy and withstood initial installation, removal and re-installation (for the purposes of getting good pictures) without any tabs breaking. The soft ?silicone? rubber inner sleeve was also installed, removed and re-installed without incident, although i will say that the top and bottom portions of it did feel a little thin when slipping the phone into the sleeve.
Grip -- 7.5/10 - As you all know, the Nexus 4 is a pretty slippery phone after a few hours of use, due to oils from your hands getting on it, This case improves that condition considerably, and the slightly raised buttons and ribs make it a lot easier to hang on to. It still slipped in my hands but grip was regained when my fingers caught on the raised soft ?silicone? on the sides of the case/phone.
Buttons: Ease of Use -- 8.5/10 -- Ease for button - Remarkably the button feel/feedback is improved since you have more of a button to push, no longer mostly flush with the side of the phones body.
Fit / Finish -- 9.0/10 -- Snug fit/Hole openings - The cut outs are actually pretty good for a $9.00 case. No real 'seams' or molding artifacts to be seen. All the holes lined up with little attention to "making them line up". The soft ?silicone? rubber fits like a comfy glove over the phone, and after the hard shell is installed, only the top and bottom forward facing sections can be lifted, but it is not loose or 'easily' pulled away from the phone either. In my opinion, it's a fairly snug fit. There is no 'gaps' of significant concern after the hard plastic shell pieces are installed. (no more than you'd expect for a $9.00 case anyway ... )
Appearance / Style - Kinda subjective, but imo it makes it look like a i-Phone 5 (lol) -- [[ http://www.tekbeattv.com/review/mybat-tuff-hybrid-case-review-for-the-iphone-5/ ]]
Protection -- 7.0/10 - This case feels like it'd do a pretty good job protecting the phone from most everyday hazards. raised lip to protect the front screen and completely covers the rest of the phone in about 1/8" of
Price/Value -- 9/10 - My reason is simple. Its a $9.00 case, that realistically offers really good protection for the 'everyday' perils of owning/using this phone (Nexus 4).
Pros: Adds pretty decent protection against the everyday perils, I wouldn't suggest it would survive 500ft drops though. Really inexpensive, Good Fit/Finish. Raised lip around the front screen protects the screen and does not lift or cause any problems with my T-Mobile screen protector.
Cons: While also a "benefit", the raised lip of the case interferes with using my current favorite ROM (Paranoid Android 2.99 Beta NINE.9+ PIE). Since the lip is raised and very close to the edge of the screen it's more difficult to activate the "PIE" than without the case. It also adds a fair amount of width / thickness to the phone, (I estimate around 1/4" (1/8" all around)). It also loses it's "sexy" curvy feel, for a more square-ish feel (ala i-Phone 5-ish)

Not sure what you're asking for here. Do you want a pic of the phone with the display on? trying to see how much of a lip it has?
Show me the lip pls
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda premium
Here's some pix of the raised lip around the front screen:
Hope that helps.
Looks pretty durable
Comparison measurements for those concerned about increased bulk (which is inevitable on this type of case)
Stock measurements: 5.27 x 2.70 x 0.36 in
(quoted from: http://www.gsmarena.com/lg_nexus_4_e960-5048.php)
After case installed measurements: 5.5625 x 2.8750 x 0.5625 in
(no where near "100% accurate" but as measured by my measuring tape .... )
(5 9/16" x 2 7/8" x 9/16")
Very nice review, thanks! Would you say that the silicone on top and bottom is thick enough to offer good protection from regular drops? I am also owning this case http://www.ebay.com/itm/FULL-BLACK-...ccessories&hash=item51a60af104#ht_2077wt_1372 and it did not really impress me, silicone is very thin and it even slipped off the phone while in my pocket.

Aloha Lownita,
Yes, while i can't say "how much of a drop the top and bottom can handle", i think it offers pretty good protection with about 5/32" of silicone rubber at the top and bottom of the phone (estimated by 1/2-ing the increased height of the phone with this case on), and i'd estimate a bit more at the corners (which is what makes the phone look more square unfortunately for those that love the aesthetics of the natural design of the phone)
I have carried this phone/case combination in my jeans pocket and tried taking it out of my pocket while sitting in the car. The case/rubber does not come off. (and I don't wear really baggy jeans).
Overall, I'm happy with the case. aside from the cons i listed in my review, i haven't had any other complaints come up while using it.
I'll probably do a short / long term update on this case over the next few months.
Enjoy! and if you get it, i hope you enjoy it's protection as much as i am.

I have the white black version if this case. I really like it but I am still having issues with proximity sensor while on call. You having any issues?
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda premium
Proximity sensor, hrm I've taken calls and the screen goes blank, but i think i might have seen it where when i moved the phone away from my ear, it didn't wake the display? maybe? Is that what you're referring to? i've only had that happen once. and have used the phone for multiple calls.

yeah i have to be in a brightly lit room for the screen to come on while i'm making a call. I thought it might be a rom/kernel issue, but it seems to work right after I take off the hard plastic cover. otherwise, this is a really nice case.
I have the solid black version of this case as well. I have had no proximity sensor issues so far.
I've had this now for ~2 weeks. So far, so good! That said, I don't use this as my daily case as it's too bulky. This is my "I'm going to the gym" or "I'm doing something rough outside" case.
I agree with pretty much the entire review. As far as how good the protection is, I don't think I can say there is another case available that will protect your phone better than this case. Sure, the protection can be increased, but I'm unaware of any case that accomplishes this for our Nexus 4.
Okay.. well... get into work today, and not 1 hour into the day and my phone took it's first tumble. Only about a foot and a half or so, directly onto the NOC raised floor. Short distance, and not a rough outdoor street or sidewalk but the case did it's job. it bounced once or twice and landed flat, screen side down. no scuffs or damage to the case.
:lol: not much of fall but certainly doing what i predicted it would do. Protect the phone from every day mishaps.

That's exactly what I wanted to hear
FYI, one more piece of info that might be important to some about this case:
I *am* able to charge my phone on my LG WCP-700 Qi charger, but it must be in the absolute perfect spot! It can't move even 1 mm, it seems! Take the back hard cover off, and you then get a little bit of play. Some other Qi chargers have even less of an available area of play with our Nexus 4s in general, so I'd assume they wouldn't even work with this case. Ultimately, YMMV but I'd go with the assumption that you can't charge wirelessly with this case. Larger USB cables will fit in the gap with this case just fine, though (a problem with some cases).
Just a quick question, does the case interfere with NFC operation in any way?
Cheers,

I haven't tried yet but based on the effect reported when using qi charger I'd say it 'might' interfere especially if the other phone also has a case.
Time will tell on this issue as more people get this phone and use it to its fullest capabilities

Update:
Tried NFC transfer today with a buddy of mine and his SGSIII, works fine. his was in case, and mine in this case. NFC detection and file transfer (3mb) worked great.
Hey guys. . .New to the Forums!
Just picked up a N4 from T-Mo, and this thread just made my decision for this case, especially when I'm not going to wait for Otterbox to start or evermake a case for this. As well as some of the posts bout NFC working with this case. . . .
Just curious if there would be any issues with a glass screen (like the Clarivue HD Glass) with this case. Or a best screen protector that will cover most of the glass (cutouts for sensor and camera) without interfering with the sensitivity and screen resolution while using this case. . Like Zagg/GhostArmor or similar thick screen protectors

Best cases for OnePlus 6

I think the included one is better than any of these 3, maybe I'll get the number 2 but from reviews of the same model but for other phones it may not have raised lips to protect the screen when facing down or from a drop but I'm hesitating between the included one or the karbon case (made by evutec)
I'm leaning towards the orzly fusion bumper. Had it for my oneplus 5, really good grip on it plus the raised lip on the front.

Pre-ordered. Gonna ship in June only. Will do a quick review here once it's here.

I will of course be checking as many accessories and screen protectors out as I can and posting videos, but I'd lean towards the Orzly at the moment also as its a true favourite of mine.
I've had great experiences with the Suensan TPU cases for both my Pixel XL and Pixel 2 XL. So I went ahead and ordered the same case for my OnePlus 6 this morning:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07BZLB6N7/ref=od_aui_detailpages00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
At $7.98 with free 2 day shipping, it's an excellent option that I highly recommend.
I also ordered the Nylon bumper case with my phone this morning since the early reviewers all seem to absolutely love the nylon bumper case.

Yeah, theirs are really good usually. It's what I had aswell last time. I was going to go for their wallet case again (as I like having the stand for watching videos),. but then I saw they had a really cheap multipack with all of them, where they've even thrown in a whole bunch of other cool stuff like Type C cables and car chargers etc. (works out cheaper than just two cases for all that lot, so I'm bagging this before they put the prices back up)

I really want a Nillkin Sparkle OnePlus 6 flip case. Plain. Minimalist. It just makes a largish phone easier to hold and protected. Don't need a kickstand (added thickness). Don't need windows. Don't need a card holder (added thickness). Drop protection = about zero, but it is what I have had on 5 or 6 phones and works great.
I've had the best experiences with UAG cases. They don't seem to have one for the 6 yet, but they made one for the 5T so I'm crossing my fingers.
Edit: UAG said on twitter they have no current plans for a 6 case. Blah.

one should never get wallet case for safety reason. My oneplus 3 was just stolen when I was on a holiday trip. I cannot imagine what would have happened if my credit card or ID card was attached to my phone.

good looking out that suensan case looks like the spigen rugged tpu case/.
link for nylon bumper?
I bought this one:
https://www.mobilefun.com/olixar-armourdillo-oneplus-6-protective-case-black-67638
I got the nylon and of course there is the one that comes with it. So those are enough options for me.
I just returned the second one. It looks alright but the grip is quite loose, the tpu case that came with the phone has a much better grip. I am going to order the first one now hopefully it will have a proper grip.
Anyone knows when Nillkin will release its frosted shield case?
Did any of you try the flexicase from Orzly? I see it's quite cheap on Amazon and was wondering if it's worth getting it.

I haven't ordered it yet.
Anyone know a "big" difference between the Kevlar and the nylon bumper case?
For my OPT I had the OtterBox, which I loved, but this one was pretty bulky... I now have the S8 with the silicon case... not that bad, but not that good protection of course...
For the OP6 I do not want the OtterBox, since it's again very bulky and has these connection protectors, which I don't like.
So I balance between the orignal Nylon or Kavlar... Nylon looks great but seems a bit bulkier than the Kevlar, right?
What I also loved from the OtterBox was this smal lip around the front, so you could lay the phone upside down without scratching the screen, does the mentioned original cases have such a lip as well?
Any thoughts? Guesses?

I never actually put my credit cards in them. (the ability to put cards in them, for me, is a totally redundant feature). I know there will be meany that don't agree and actually like that part, but I agree with you that the card feature is just not for me either.
The reason why I prefer the wallet case style though and always use them is for two reasons:
Firstly, I like that the screen is completely covered when not in use, so never gets scratched up in my pocket. (that can be solved by a decent tempered glass screen protector though), but not letting the screen get scratched in the first place stops you having to replace the screen protectors so often. (so I actually use glass screen protectors aswell as this case, which gives me the best of both worlds, and has always served me well)
The even bigger reason why I prefer the wallet case styles is to do with the built in stand. Watching movies in bed, or on a train, (or anywhere for that matter), I just open the case, and I've got as fully supported stand which I can position at pretty much any angle, without having to bring anything else with me to do it. Then when I've finished, I just fold it away, and it's all self contained, so is automatically always with me wherever I have my phone.
But I agree with you, putting cards in the case is not something I find that useful. (aside from how much it bulks the case out, I worry about things like if the magnetic strip of the cards would get wiped by the magnets on the lid). So my cards I always carry in my actual wallet (not in a wallet phone case), and the the wallet case is purely for all the useful things it does for my phone..

I never actually put my credit cards in them. (the ability to put cards in them, for me, is a totally redundant feature). I know there will be meany that don't agree and actually like that part, but I agree with you that the card feature is just not for me either.
The reason why I prefer the wallet case style though and always use them is for two reasons:
Firstly, I like that the screen is completely covered when not in use, so never gets scratched up in my pocket. (that can be solved by a decent tempered glass screen protector though), but not letting the screen get scratched in the first place stops you having to replace the screen protectors so often.

I agree that not putting a card in for safety reasons. I never have, never do. For safety reasons and the well though out response above. The Nillkin Sparkle doesn't even have a card slot. Smart.
Some people don't use lockscreens or use find me applications, even during travel. …
