[Q] Mobi Products Crystal Case

Thinking of getting this case for my G2. Has anyone tried it out. If so, how is it (snug fit, any problems opening and closing phone)? thanks.

So I decided to get the Mobi Case. I had the original T-mobile gel case, I gotta say I like this one much better. I had problems with my G2 opening really easily with the gel case and problem solved.
here's a few pics

I thought about getting this case but I wasn't sure. Does it fit snug? For some reason I was worried about it scratching any of the soft parts. I really love the way the g2 looks naked (haha). How much was it and where did you get it from?

I have to agree with you I also like to see my G2 bare some skin, hell that's one of the main reasons I bought this phone. The case is quite snug on the phone. I didn't have a problem with it scratching either. But after a day of use, I have noticed some scuffs on the body part of the case (from setting it down). I got it with tax, shipping and 10% off for $17.60 @ the Android Central Store.

Cheapest i've found.

Its a decent case...more protective then it looks, I've had it for a few months now

I appreicate the feed back. I almost went with htc's version of the clear case but it doesn't cover the trackpad area like this one. I think ill go for it. I have the hard rubberized T-Mobile version which I think is awesome for the protection, and the price. (17.99 I think). Also, with any clear case there are going to have those scuffs regardless. Im still waiting on otterbox to make a case. I figured they would considering they made one for the mytouch slide Thanks though!

I love the looks of it but... don't you lose the grippyness (if thats even a word, lol) with that case opposed to the popular OEM gel skin?

I dont feel like you lose grip at all. Waiting for my new one to come in.

There is still some grippiness but not as much as with a rubberized case. Its still a decent amount though.

UPDATE: Well after about 8 months of only using this case, one of the clips that hold the case on (on the battery end) has broken off. I guess that's expected after taking it on and off who knows how many times. I gotta say, I definitely got my $17 out of this case and will probably buy another one just like it to replace this one.

Benks Magic Slim Back Cover - Blue

I have say I really enjoy this case. It's got a nice soft matte touch to it. It's not too extreme though where dust gets stuck to it and you feel it. Those cases drive me crazy.
I definitely recommend it if you can wait 2.5 weeks for it to arrive. They come in black, clear, and blue. They all have a slight frosted look.
Also, this case is designed for the international HTC One X. So the camera and speaker hole will be slightly off since the AT&T One X and One XL is slightly longer. It still fits great though and the camera lens is PROTECTED!
I was only able to find them on eBay. Here are the links: Blue Black White
Thank me if you like and buy one too!

It's pretty slick but I'm anal about my cases, if it doesn't fit perfectly than i won't use it. That said, if they came out with one specifically for the AT&T one I'd be all over it like flies on sh*t.

Lol...I love the case so much, I would buy it too

This is one of the better minimalist cases I've seen. Might pull the trigger soon if no ATT version comes out.

It fits perfectly fine. The camera is the only thing off. Either way, the lens is protected. Heck, it's only $12 lol. I'll use it until a proper one comes out.

This is the only case of this type I have seen. Am I missing something or do all the cases seem bulky and hide the design of the device?
I'd buy this if it fit immediately.

Man that does look nice, but it covers up the back which I like so much. Maybe when the back novelty wears off I'll pick one up :/

Eeek, $17. I would love this case, but $17! Wonder if this provides any edge protection. Also, how does it fit? The only other flip cases I know are flaps attached to a replacement battery cover.

Just bought one, when it arrives I will put up a few pics and let you all know what it feels like.

more pictures of the case here: http://www.nillkin.com/chinese/proshow.asp?mid=2&sid=&tid=&cid=&scid=&id=2981&page=
looks pretty good tbh

I was wondering if the slit at the top of the front cover is open enough to allow you to be on a call with it closed? When someone gets it, could you let us know?

Also bought one today....the grey one. I always 'liked' nillkin's stuff. They always have the cases and whatnot first, but they aren't the best quality, but is passable IMO.

of course it is, i don't have one but look at the pics. its clearly there for the purpose of talking with the front flap closed.

Bought this hope it has a soft padded inside so the bezel doesn't get scratched

I purchased one and will be giving feedback when I receive it. Does anyone know if the flip is magnetic? I don't think it is but one can always hope!

Don't think it does. But I think one can tape something to test it out.

Ballistic Shell Gel Series Case Confirmed for Nexus 4

I cant wait! Loved my Ballistic on my Galaxy Nexus

i just wish they make more colors than black, white, and pink cases....a red one would be nice

Can everyone email them to request that they includes inductive charging. I know I will not buy this case without this feature. I would love a heavy duty case but use my energizer charger during the day.

is it even possible to do that? i kind of doubt it unless the charging range for the field chargers is around half to maybe an inch

I shot the CS department an e-mail inquiring about a case for the N4 just to let them know there's people wanting it.

http://www.slashgear.com/qi-wireless-charging-range-extended-to-40mm-20223886/
Should be plenty possible, may depend on your charger though?

Awesome, I love Ballistic SG cases! But if the wireless charging doesn't go through the case I'll have to pass =(
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app

I would think they would have to include some sort of coil in the case to allow the pass through.

Holy ****!! That looks amazing. I just set up the email to let me know when it is out.

I wish their was a kick stand

Awesome! Can't wait for this case to come out!
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app

I just can't wait for this to be released. It looks spectacular in my opinion, and looks like it will be great for protecting the Nexus 4. The SG Ballistic case I had for my Epic 4G Tough was very protective and durable. Without a doubt the Ballistic Shell Gel (SG) series are my favorite cases!

is ther an est, release date?

i think i read somewhere that it would be out by the end of this month... if my memory recalls right, i read it on their facebook page somewhere

i wonder if there is a chance that they might be releasing other colors than just plain black like they did for the galaxy nexus

Forget otter box this my next case

I want this noooooooooow. Why won't they take my money yet? Please just take my money.

Why does everything Ballistic makes have to be so ugly? :what:
They really need to stop with the protruding corners. Those could be round and still offer just as much protection if made of the same material.

Solid plastic/metal cases?

Any recommendations for a solid case? No rubber or soft plastic?
Its for a keyboard mod.
Thin is also a bonus.

Yes, I believe that's the one mackster248 is suggesting.

Bugger, its close but the bezel doesn't go all the way around the phone.

Check out the Seidio surface. It covers the lip and is plastic.

That looks quite promising, is that the one with the kickstand?
The one for the galaxy nexus would be perfect.

And it sucks, because the metal cases can just look so slick. Here's one I just found for the Nexus 4, that looks great. But I like my signal strength.
