Looks cool but the plastic back will get scratches
Thanks for the headsup. I posted on their facebook page as well.
These look to be the best bumper solution BY FAR! It looks like an outstanding product for the iPhone.

Its either the plastic back or the nexus 4 I think you rather have the plastic back get scratched plus they sell them individually and in colors
well, I guess we wont be seeing linear cases for Nexus 4 anytime soon, based on SGP reply on facebook :
"We will be making our Ultra Thin Air in Black for the Nexus 4. Sorry, no Linear case"

You have to make a request basically, once they see a lot of people asking for it they will consider making it.

I got this from them:
"Hi. Probably, because the shape of the phone is a bit more curved than the iPhone. We will be making a snap case soon. ~3 weeks"
Which I don't get. I mean bumpers exist, so I don't see how hard it would be to throw some plastic on the back of it.

I don't see why they can't make this case I think its possible. They can make it a 3 piece case just like the iPhone.

This is what I wrote to spigen on their FB wall
Have you had a chance to pass on to your production team that there's been an overwhelming interest in a Nexus 4 tpu case? It seems like everyone is really holding out for one as there are already a number of "ultra thin" type cases already out and we're all passing up on them. A lot of us are holding out for a truly premium case much like the ones you produce for other phones. Thanks

AND THEIR RESPONSE
Hello. We did, but honestly we are not getting much requests for a TPU case or any specific case. We do get some here on Facebook, but that's about it. We really apologize if the Ultra Thin Air is not what you are looking for. Without a specific carrier to push the device, the device is somewhat only for a targeted market and not the general consumer.

Dummies. Tmobile carries the device
Well their loss. They don't know there are still a lot of people waiting for their phones? I would take advantage of it. Some people only buy one case and stick with it.

Hi Guys,
I recently decided to start reviewing products the I purchased as a hobby, the first being the Rearth Ringke Slim Case.
Hopefully you will enjoy the review and it will help some users to make up their mind on weather the product is something they would like to purchase.
Please leave constructive feedback as this is my first product review:-

Hi buddy,
Thanks for the constructive feedback, unfortunately I have been using my Nexus 4 to take the pictures so was unable to have pictures of the phone in the case!
Nice review. Just bought this the other day as well. Smashing case, and not too intrusive. Still love the N4 naked though

Yes!, Some mates I have spoke to don't like the disco ball finish on the back, but I feel its a change from the bog standard boring plain back. I just don't rep my phone naked as I will drop it the day I remove my case.
Posting my review here, since I'm not sure why it won't show up on the site.
Overall, it's alright. Not great, but good enough for a basic review.
Let me highlight a few things I liked, before I start tearing it down (sorry!)
Format:
- Holy crap, the formatting is beautiful. Top notch in my opinion.
Informative and brief:
- I actually liked reading this. Learned new things and now I'm having second thoughts on not ordering this case before!
Specifications:
- Quite a lot, especially near the end, which is great to see in a review.
However, now the criticism:
Grammar:
- Because I'm a nazi. Re-read it once or twice, and you'll probably notice the errors.
tl;dr:
- The summary should be placed at the very top. It's better to get the general overview before going into the specifics. Most people may just scroll down, see the summary and leave without actually giving it a second thought.
Pictures:
- Read it on your forum post. It's fine for now. Even with a Nexus 4, look for some photography tips. The Nexus 4 can compare to most basic DSLR's today. Takes practice.
Yeah, photos with the phone is nice. If you have any digital camera, use it. If not, and if you're not me (poor as f-) then go ahead, get a camera and get at it!
Overall, I give the review a...
7.5/10
It's great, I enjoyed it. Going to bookmark this site, since I'm most likely going to look for a new case later in the month. Great job!

Hey man, awesome review. You should have a look at some of the dbrand vinyl stickers for the N4 back. I have the brushed aluminium one and it's pretty awesome. Gets rid of the crap disco ball back and doesn't add bulk to the phone

I was told that they where making a third version of this case along with a revised version of the Ringke Fusion, I'm not sure if anyone else know anything about this but would be nice to have it confirmed.

I also find it hard to understand why phone case manufacturers cannot add a little more grip, I cant see it being a hard thing to do. But hey ho I don't design them!
Just to confirm, I have contact Rearth an there will not be a version 3 slim version case. But there could possibly be a 2nd revision Fusion case. Hope this helps!
I just wanted to give a huge thanks to Android Fan Network (Nick) for sending me this case! :highfive: Thanks guys!
okay, so this is the first time I've ever seen a diztronic case.
i wasn't sure what to expect, honestly, i first heard about them a week ago when i saw AFN's review they posted on facebook. Well, I wanted to get my hands on a case ever since I saw that review. So, naturally I was really excited to get home from work tonight at 8pm to find this sitting in my mailbox! Even though the unit I received was pink I still wanted it on my phone, for a few minutes at least! Well, I just want to say that Diztronic really used high quality TPU when they designed this case. It really has a premium feel that a lot of TPU cases lack.
PRO's:
-fitment, honestly it is exactly like it should be. No excess space and nothing is cramped. (the IR blaster is slightly off center, but it still works perfectly)
-button covers. Yes, this is actually a PRO on this case. It is flimsy enough to allow for a tactile feedback of the button! It actually clicks. I don't know why all companies don't make this a priority.
-Lip, it has just the right amount of lip around the top edge to protect your device without going insaine
CON's: These are so minimal, I almost didn't even list them
-No grip on the sides
-camera cutout is not 'perfect' it is slightly raised and causes the phone to rock back and forth when placed on the back, it is also a large square instead of being cut the fit. (not a big deal just something to note)
-My review unit is pink and I cannot be seen with it on my phone in public.
Overall, I would give this TPU case a 5*/5* It is exactly what I look for in a case, and if it were not pink, I would keep it myself! So, if anyone would like a sparkly pink TPU case from Diztronic, I would like to offer the chance to win it, free shipping and all.
I want someone to answer the following question: (Yes, I am a math geek!)
Solve the system:
1) x+2y+2z=10
2) 2x+y+z=8
3) x+3y+2z=11
First person to give me all three numbers that x, y , and z represent wins the case with no shipping charges. Good luck!

I know, I personally love the phone and want to help build a better community here. I got this case for free and really only wanted to review it. I know I love getting something I want for free, especially something that is, in my opinion, good. I'm going to give away two other cases soon, so be on the lookout for those!
I agree though, there is a lot of negative threads here, we need more positive ones for such a great phone.

I have many app ideas, but don't have the skill or the time to learn how to make an app. if you would like to know an idea and attempt to make one, just message me.
I haven't used any of their cases since the Nexus 5, but just looked them up on Twitter and they said the cases are coming.

I just contacted them and they said that they thought maybe the Dilex would be the first case BUT that decision has not yet been made. The employee further explained that the product team was still evaluating their options to decide what products would best make sense.
So it sounds to me that we're at least some weeks away before we can pre-order any Seidio cases.
I saw something on their twitter stream say they weren't going to make OBEX cases for either Nexus, but if they have improved their holster durability and the rubber holding onto the phones isn't so soft anymore I'd be happy to get one again. Great looking cases.

They use a TPU now instead of a silicon so its much better in my opinion.
Oh really??? Hmmm, if they've fixed the kickstand thing (always being off centered so your phone flips to landscape when laying flat) I will definitely look at them.

I asked Seidio on 10/3 if they would be making a Surface case for the 6P, as that is by far the best case I've ever had. Hopefully a case of a clueless customer service rep, but here is their reply from an e-mail on 10/5:
Hello,
Thank You for contacting Seidioonline.
Unfortunately, we do not have any plans for a Nexus 6P.
This doesn't mean that we will not eventually release it for this phone we just haven't got plans to at this time.
We're always in the process of developing and releasing new accessories so I do recommend periodically checking our online store for product updates.
You can sign up to be notified about new releases for this device here: http://www.seidioonline.com/Articles.asp?ID=303
Seidio Customer Service
EDIT: After posting this, I went to their website, and saw that I can now sign up for updates on Nexus 6P products. That wasn't one of the listed choices when I e-mailed them on 10/3. Pretty sure they wouldn't make it a selection choice if they weren't going to make products for it.
Well its not a big loss because if they can't commit I won't miss their cases. I'm rather disappointed by the lack of good cases lately. Oe wish people would take the Nexus line seriously instead of making it an after thought

I love the Otterbox Commuter line of cases. The Galaxy Nexus ruined it with Otterbox. The size differences between the GSM and CDMA versions caused huge headaches with customers who dont know and dont care about the difference. Many sales, too many returns and exchanges, and now Otterbox says "f you, Google". Well I say "f you Verizon" for constantly dictating how phones should be.

Hello All,
It seems to me that none of the big boys in the case market don't think there is a market to make cases for the Nexus line of phones (5x/6p).
I've sent emails to UAG and lunatik, a facebook message to Otterbox and got the responses that there is either no information or no interest in making the cases for these phones.
This is a call for you to bug those companies to show them there is demand for good quality cases for the Nexus line of phones.
Once the reviews come out there will be more demand but for now let's make some noise and email or flood the Facebook pages to let them know that we want the cases.
If we can show them there's people who will buy them maybe they will get their head out of their asses and put in the effort
Post who you have emailed and update with responses. With some luck and effort, we might be able to change their minds

This is beyond stupid. The consumer should not have to contact these companies with manufactured pleas for their product.
If they choose not to appease the Nexus market then so be it, several more will rise to fill in the gaps.
Verus for example has already produced several gorgeous cases while it took Spigen weeks to not only come up with contradicting email replies, but a product as well.
Use your wallet, and don't be a tool to these companies.

Hey all
Since the new nexus devices are getting amazing reviews and selling like hot cakes, maybe we should send another round of messages to the manufacturers again to see if they have changed their mind

I just discovered a US-based company called Carved (www.carved.com) that make wooden-backed cases. They've made cases for the Nexus 6 and 5 in the past, so I sent them an e-mail asking for one for the 6P. Some of their designs are really quite unique; I'd definitely pay a premium for something of quality and made in North America.
In other words, I'm asking people to e-mail these guys with requests, too

This. I'd love to use my phone for fieldwork (and just generally in the rain), but LifeProof is all I know and they will likely never make a case for anything that isn't an iPhone or Galaxy. I just got one of those Ziplock-looking bags off Amazon as a stopgap measure.

Hello!
Jen @ Cover-Up here. We've finally launched our real wood #WoodBack case for the 6P. It's available to pre-order as of today, and is due to ship from 25th January. We've combined a TPU and polycarbonate case with a hand-finished real wood panel, to give the look of real wood with added impact-resistant protection for your phone.
You can find the collection here: http://www.cover-up.com/collections/woodback-google-nexus-6p

Same here.
What is not clear to me, or depicted as far as I can tell, is how the buttons are handled?
Judging by pictures it looks like the fingerprint cutout is quite narrow, and given the overall thickness of this case it looks like one will have to dive his finger deep into that hole in order to unlock the phone. Can you comment on this?
I would also like to see the buttons as this detail is missing on the pictures.
Other than that the cases look good.
Wow. Too cool! I'm gonna definitely have to get one of these soon. Thanks for the share op!

We've tested the case thoroughly here and found no problems with the access to the finger print scanner. The sensor itself seems to be so efficient that when holding the phone in front of you the tip of the index finger is more than sufficient to unlock it, and we've found this just as easy to do with the case on as without the case.
As per my previous post, you can see some extra pictures of the buttons here:

They're fully covered by the case's TPU edges for extra protection, but still easily pressed. I hope these pictures help, but just shout if not - I can always get our photographer to take some better ones in the studio for you.

Thanks, I can discern the buttons. Maybe one of the "multi angle" shots should include this?
thanks

Working on it as we speak @bench_strength Will let you know as soon as the new photos are up on our website.
If you could please post more photos in the hand like you had of the front and back and sides please. Anyway possible to include nexus engraving by custom request? Other companies offer this without posting on their website to go around copyright issues

Ordered a cedar case, and excited to receive it! Don't see many people with wood phone cases out on the street, so I'm glad that you've developed something for this phone.
Like @nexicon I, too, would have liked to have had the Nexus logo engraved by custom request. Toastmade, dbrand, and Slickwraps all offer this option (Toast by custom request) so I'm curious as to whether there's some especially obnoxious, UK-specific law preventing that?

Unfortunately whilst we can't speak for other companies, engraving the Nexus logo onto the case without Google's permission would be enough to constitute an infringement of Google's Nexus trademark and so (for the time being at least) it's not something that we're able to offer, even by custom request.

The case looks way too thick. I'm waiting for reviews. Carved.com looks slimmer

If you e-mail Carved customer support, you'll hear from them that they have no plans to make a case for the Nexus 6P.
Furthermore, both Carved and Cover-Up have two different versions of their cases: the Slim/Snap series (respectively) and the Traveler/Explorer series (respectively). If you compare the products (for their iPhone 6 lineup) they're literally identical (even down to the design of the rubber surrounding the wood back; I wouldn't even be surprised if they sourced the exact same components and materials). The former happens to be more minimalistic, while the latter offers more protection.
At least Cover-Up decided on making a case for the N6P; they're just only offering it in the Explorer version, since it's more versatile. Personally, I'm glad for this decision because the Slim/Snap series leave the top and bottom edges exposed, meaning less coverage against scratches and drops.
Ya thanks to know

Our #WoodBack cases for 6P are now ready! All pre-orders will ship later on today.
I have uploaded a very quick video of the case here. Please excuse the poor quality of the video, I hope to get our in-house photographer to create something a little better later this week but wanted to give you a sneak peek.
I've also added some extra photos. (This particular case is Bamboo.)
As ever, any questions just shout .
The link you provided directs to an old video of the iPhone 6 and galaxy S6.
The case seems to be as thick as the thickest part of the phone, I guess it's not possible to shape the wood to adhere the the phone's shape?
Is there a gap below the camera where the phone is thinner?
