i-Blason Clear Hard Snap-on Case

For those looking for cases, these are pics of my just received "i-Blason Clear Hard Snap-on Case for Google Nexus 4 Smart Phone (Crystal Clear)". Snaps on just fine, doesn't protect the top or bottom of the phone, but protects the back and sides just fine. I love knowing it's more protected than naked, but still able to show off the phone in all its glory and shiny back! Yeah, the plastic scratches easily, but how cares. It was just $10, so I might order more just for spares.
I got the case from here: http://www.amazon.com/i-Blason-SoftGel-Flexible-Frost-Clear/dp/B009Y0ZH6Y

Just noticed this case myself on Amazon, which cued me in that the Chinese are finally cranking these long awaited crystal clear cases en masse. Just ordered mine from here for $4: http://www.ebay.com/itm/251200525677?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649
$10 is a rip for these cheaply made crystal clear cases that scratch if you so much as look at it sidewise. I am surprised that i-Blason didn't plaster their logo all over the back like they did with their TPU cases, at least there's that.

If only it was available on Amazon uk, it's a good price on eBay but delivery will be like a month so I'm not sure, shipping also costs

Was never a fan of crystal clear cases, but they actually look good on the Nexus 4

Every crystal case I've owned in the past for various devices....over time, stuff builds up between the case and the phone. It'll scratch either depending on the content of the "stuff".
Just make sure you clean it regularly.

Good thing i have a full body skin coming in the mail already.

Dang, that looks so much better than the clear S-wave TPU case, it's not even funny.

Is that the wrong link? That one is Frost Clear, not Crystal Clear, and it's a soft gel case, not a hard snap-on case.

That's the correct link, but they have modified their listing. When I purchased mine, there was no "Pink". "Clear" was where "Pink" was. There is a link in this thread to an eBay listing that has the clear case much cheaper ($4).

I got the same case 2 weeks ago- so far, so good! First crystal clear case that I like

My clear case is now scratched up, but who gives a **** because I would rather it get messed up than my beautiful N4. I'll just order a cheap replacement down the road.

[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.

Ringke Fusion ($13.99) vs Official Bumper ($12.95)

I was wondering which case is better than the other?
I'm looking to keep the nexus 4 slim, sexy, and functional.
I narrowed it down to these two cases because of the clicky tactile feels (on the fusion revision) and the original bumper while maintaining slimness.

I got the bumper a week after I received my phone. Well, not the official one, but a replica of the LG one that's sold in the Play Store. The one I received off Amazon seemed fine, but after about a week of normal use, 2 cracks appeared - one on the bottom where the USB is, and the other on the power button.
I think that they appeared because of plugging in the phone and clicking the power button turning it on and off. The material (metal-looking plastic) that surrounds the bumper is flimsy on it's own, and with a certain amount of pressure and heat from the phone, it's prone to cracking.
If you Google around you'll find that a lot of people have had the same problem with the official one. I bought the same bumper for my friend too, but his is holding up well so far, so I'm not sure. The bumper seemed to have a tighter fit on his N4 whereas mine felt a little loose. He has been using it for a couple months as his was the first wave of N4 that were shipped out. I just got mine a little less than a month ago.
Switched over to the Ringke Fusion based on the number of excellent reviews it got both on XDA and Amazon. Took about a week to get here and because it is the revision, the buttons are clicky and give a good feedback. The case also doesn't add much bulk at all. While I do like the heft of carrying around the phone naked, the glass panels scare me. I never used cases on my old phones, but then again, they were plastic and metal. They sure could take a hit!
The Fusion makes the N4 feel more solid as it is, and it works well with wireless chargers. The only complaint I have about it is the back clear plastic tends to dirty quite easily, with scuffs, fingerprints. But then again, who takes time out of their day to gander at the back of the phone. Sure it's pretty but you'll be spending more of your time messing around with the front.

Where'd you find the official bumper for 13?

I remember when i bought my N4, I kept buying different bumpers because either they were too tight [messed up my screen protector], too bulky or did not protect my phone good enough. In January, I bought Ringke Fusion; been using it since then . Its not one of those cheap bumpers, you will definitely feel the quality. Its fits the phone very well and you wont feel the size of it in your hand or in your pocket.

It's a replica. The real ones are sold on the play store. If it says official elsewhere and is less than the price you would normally pay, chances are it's not official. Anyone can say it's official but it isn't.

I got the Ringke Fusion. IT shows fingerprints REALLY bad - much worse than the back glass - and the fingerprints aren't easy to clean off unless you use water. I ended up taking it off and using the bumper I got free before finding another case.

LOL I would personally get the Fusion, and yes, most bumpers online are replicas even if they are in LG packaging. The normal bumpers cost about 20bux (USD) so that's a good gauge in authentic or not.
There's a thread somewhere comparing the packaging but basically, if there's a holo sticker on the back, mine is square that reads "Original accessories by LG".
GL

Bumper
Wider
Looks better
Less protection
Ringke
Better protection
Lets you create custom designs to insert behind the plastic
horrible protruding creases on the back of the case. - rough to the touch
picks up fingerprints and dust way too easily.
I use bumper for everyday use and if i'm going to be somewhere outside for a long while where i won't have a place to put my phone safely away i use the ringke.

I've Gone NAKED!!!!!!!!

I bought a leather backed MX14 and then what did I do? I bought a bumper and 2 cases for it. Why? Because I didn't want to scratch it, lol! Stupid I know.
Then today I was taking the Incipio NGP case off to put the Case-Mate Hula bumper on so that I could at least feel the leather and I scratched the leather back with my nails. I gasped in horror but really it is a good thing b/c now it is not pristine and I can wean myself off of these cases.
The leather is really a nice feel in the hand and it isn't slippery at all. The metal frame is a bit slippery but with the grip of the leather it is not too bad.
I think I may buy a sleeve to put it in when it is in my purse.
The leather is really cool and well worth the extra $25 but the black is so unfeminine. I like it when I am dressed up in black clothes but other than that, it looks like a man's phone. I wish they would do a white leather but then, that would likely get dirty so they would get a bunch of complaints.
I think I will get this sleeve

Yup, that was my issue. I started with the phone naked for the same reason mentioned above (feel in hand, looks, etc.). I've also had both the Galaxy Nexus and Nexus 4 before this, both of which survived multiple drops each other than a slight bend in the metal. With the Moto X, on the other hand, I dropped it once onto a granite floor and the screen broke instantly. I bought a replacement and kept it naked...then dropped it again on some linoleum and broke the screen again. $240 in replacement fees later, I bought a case for the third one. The way the screen is set up makes it break instantly upon hitting a corner, which wasn't the case with my previous devices...I just don't trust this phone to survive any drop.

Yep, looks like motocare is a good investment in this case. Mine was a less than 2 foot drop from my pocket to the concrete steps in the garage. My old Galaxy S3 survived worse than that, in fact this is the first time I've had a screen crack since owning the original Galaxy S, and my phones are always naked. Worst before was dropping my Note from chest height onto dirt trail. All that did was pockmark the screen.
Speaking of naked, we have no proof the OP is actually going naked. So far I've only seen mention of a naked phone

It was $90 after sales tax for me and the deductible being only $39 would bring the cost of a new phone to $140. Even if my phone doesn't break, I am sure I will use it for a new battery when it gets close to the 2 year mark as I use my phone for WiFi MHS and that takes a toll on the battery. By then of course I will have a MX16 but it is still good to have spare phones as a backup device in case you lose your phone.

hahahahahaha, I am going to take some pics of my naked phone soon along with the cases I bought. I have a small dent in the leather now and haven't scratched it again, not bad. I do keep it in a Seidio spring clip holster (S5), so technically it is not naked. I guess I couldn't wean myself completely from my cases but the back is naked!

I really like the Hula Bumper. I bought it after the phone slipped out of my hand. I agree the metal is rather slick. A full case is a bit much considering I want to see and feel the wood on the back of my phone. That was one of the main reasons I picked it up.

I was just about to ask if anyone has found a bumper case for this thing. This phone is already so big and fat that it needs a bumper so as to not make the bulge in the back any thicker.

Sorry i cant post links yet...
Www dot otterbox dot com /en-us/moto-x-pure-edition/defender-series-case/mot2-moto-x-pure-edition.htm
Now has the box in stock. I ordered one today.
I cant even count how many times Otterbox has saved my phone. I wear the belt clip and work outside year round in Florida. Heat, rain, humidity etc. Lifeproof fell apart in 6 months otterbox going strong 2 years later.
I literally drop my phone 3 times a week from the side of a forklift a box truck a loading dock and pick it up dust it off and keep on rolling. They may be ugly but they work damn well.

The real question is where in the heck is the Commuter case!? They just lost my business to this http://www.incipio.com/cases/smartphone-cases/motorola-smartphone-cases/motorola-moto-x-pure-edition-cases/dualpro-case-motorola-moto-x-pure-edition.html

Thanks for the link... I'm definitely not going to get the Otterbox case

I don't think this phone is huge by any means but I did just come from a nexus 6 lol. .
I like the supcases, they are cheap and offer good protection, the heavy duty version is way slimmer then a otter box.

I got this on Amazon for $8 to hold me over until a better case comes out. It does the job and protects it pretty good. I wish it was a little snugger fit, but it'll do for now.

I had one like that for my old note 2, if the case was more snug they would be decent. Hell ive been using the clear plastic bumper that came with the phone until the 30th when I can get my supcase heavy duty for $20
