My First Impressions:
-DOES NOT ADD BULK TO THE PHONE.
-Fits snug around phone.
-Adds a nice firm grip to the device.
-Perfect cut-outs for all ports
-There are no cut-outs for the POWER & VOLUME ROCKERS, but the material still has the springy feeling so you don't have to press hard.
-Nice black glossy design going around the case, with a smoke grey clear back to show off GALAXY S BRANDING.
-Easy to put on & take off.
**MOST IMPORTANTLY**
The lip on the case adds a gap between the screen and surfaces just in case you drop the device face down it will prevent scratches or possibly cracking.
I will definitely be ordering the Clear Back. There are also Red & Blue Backing Available.
I like this case. Being as though it is my first choice I am not disappointed with the material or fit of it. Also i received my case in 4 days. Nice packaging and shipping method.

I don't have a case for my Blaze yet, but when it took a fall out of my shirt pocket I thought maybe I should....
Please update when you get the case with a review!

Just checked the tracking. My case is home. I will take some pics with and without the phone inside of it. If it first well with the perfect cut outs I will be ordering another one but with a clear back.

Case is still holding up. Couple light scratches on it but nothing serious. My phone is still in mint condition so it is doing its job.

Just had mine delivered today. I miss the feel of the back of the Blaze, but that will happen with any case. Slipped it on and it looks and feels great. Thanks for the recommendation.
I got one just like this I think. Except pink and white. Post it when I get it.

No problem. I'm so use to how the case feels that when I removed it to do a batt pull the blaze felt a little lighter than usual. I love the feel the the battery cover.

So my case came in, and I foolishly believed the back part was white, when infact was transparent lol. So I kept the phone paper that came in the cover, cut the holes accordingly, then drew my customization on the white back part. The results are attached.
The cover has a good fit, but I've seen better. The feel quality is not cheap, but I've felt better covers.

I might have to try something like this. I bought a case off Amazon that is sort of a two parter. Internal plastic shell with a rubbery outer covering. Solid case but it tripled the width on this bad boy.
Sent from my SGH-T769 using xda app-developers app
It's a good solid case. Barely any bulk.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using XDA Premium HD app
I love the protection my case offers but the added bulk is driving me nuts! I couldn't take it anymore so I ordered this case. While I'm waiting for delivery I'm temporarily putting my phone in the rubber skin case I bought for it similar to the one that came with my HD2 a couple years ago.
Everyone here seems to like this case and it's at an excellent price point.
Sent from my SGH-T769 using xda app-developers app
Glad everyone likes it
Got my case today and I love it so far! It's the perfect blend between the rubbery skins and the plastic hard cases. Very little bulk added and they did an excellent job of cutting the holes for access to all of the ports.
They did a good job of making the usb port plenty large enough. On the rubbery skin I was using they cut the hole a little too small. It was big enough for the silver part to fit but not large enough for the black part so it would keep falling out.
The one minor complaint I have is that, while they are "springy" as previously described, the power and volume rockers aren't raised enough on the sides of the phone. They need to stick out a little bit further to they can be found and pressed easier by touch IMHO.
Overall I would give it an A-

Yup I was in the same predicament and I went with the case-mate barely there. I love the case. I went white on white. I don't need super protection but just want to protect from scratches and getting dirty.

i just noticed that incipio one covers more edges. so i think i am more leaning toward this...
Good to see they finally got them out, but im not sure if I would pick it up our not. When I had my SGS II I loved my NGP that I had on it, right now im rocking the diztronic tpu which is almost the same exact setup as the NGP.

From the pictures on the site, the feather looks exactly the same except the bottom part looks like it wraps around a bit further and the top has an extra piece that covers the middle section between the headphone jack and the power button.
Just ordered a feather. Will report back when I get it.
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
Just got my feather in and I can tell you that there is a reason they don't show you what it looks like directly from the front. The case is much thicker than they would lead you to believe and is pretty damn ugly when it's on. I will never use this case.
^dang sorry to hear that
Well Im going get mine in the mail soon so I guess I know what to expect

It is almost flush with the camera lens, MAYBE a little bit thicker. If you lay the phone down on its back it definitely does keep the camera lens off the table, there is like a .5mm gap that I can see through. So yes, but not by much.

Got mine today. A bit pricy imo, I try to not spend more than $10 on a case. Keeps the thin profile and the material actually makes the phone easier to grip. I like the fact that the front portion is flushed with the phone(not good for ppl who like putting their phones face down). Probably gonna be switching between this case and the Amzer case. Really liking it.

Edit: Just purchased the Black Feather for my white HOX

Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
They don't have a white case and I couldn't decide between buying the gray or the black for my white HOX. Finally settled on getting the gray one (I figured it didn't really matter since I'm planning on having a few cases sitting around to swap as my mood changes).
I've never been a huge fan of any soft plastc/silicone since they are huge dust and hair magnets. I have a jack russell and this thing loves to attract hair and pet dander.
Not sure where to put this post exactly so I decided to put it here. Just like the title says its a s case for the Nexus 4 but its from China so its going to take a little while to get here.

Usually when I order from China, it takes around 2 weeks for me to get in the mail. I wish manufactures would have made them earlier since all the specs were released...I guess I'll just use some kind of pouch to carry it around till I get something.

Yep, don't want to cover up this awesome looking device!
rather wait for a better one..
Been case and screen protector free on my GNex for almost a year, not a scratch or ding on it.
Next week when my daughter takes it though it will be in a Kraken case
I would pick one up, but I don't want to cover up that sexy back of the nexus 4
I'm probably going to put a full body screen protector and not put on a case though that one looks nice. Just got be extra careful. What would be really cool is if they made a Qi inductive case, that charges your phone, that way you never need to charge your phone.

The Nexus 4 has QI charger built into it. I believe it has a range of 40mm... So unless your case is made of metal you will be okay.

These "S" design back cases are some of the ugliest cases I've seen. Kinda like those clear "Altezza" vehicle tail lights from the early 2000s.

They aren't beautiful but for the price, consistent design, thinness, and especially the grip edges, there's few competition from getting the most for your dollar perspective.

Got the lime green one today, think it absolutely rocks, all I will say is the lime green seems to give the camera a green tint, now I have only seen it once and not sure if it was the lighting conditions, but it is something to think about.

Do you mind posting a picture of the nexus 4 with the light blue case on?
The suction effect is disappointing to me. Otherwise a very nice case.
Would you mind posting pictures on how the phone looks with red Cruzerlite on? Have you seen or tried out the new design (andy-circuit-case) for the Nexus 4? And does the suction effect wear off at some point? Or is it just really blatantly obvious with only certain colors? Sorry for asking so many questions but I'm really curious lol.

I've seen it but haven't review it yet. I am sure I will looking into that
I don't think the suction effect wears off because the back of the phone is glass ..the lighter the color the more obvious it is. I was thinking maybe the old baby powder trick might get rid of that ..gonna try it later on
The colors you see on the video are the only ones I actually have.

Just got the new CruzerLite cases for the nexus 4 and they look incredible and fit snug and perfect holes for all buttons. Attaching pictures of them. They have a nice lip on the top so you can place phone upside down w no worries of touching glass. Definitely with the $12.90 price each.

Not a bad looking case, BUT no protection for the chromed buttons of the N4, so I'll definitely pass on this. The Seidio Active case/holster combo should be available for ordering any day now

What are you talking about? Those volume and power buttons are nicely tucked inside the case openings with a lip around them just like the lip all around the top to protect the front glass.

I have the androidified case on my N4 as well, i love the look of it and the price at $13 was nice. I generally have no gripes about the case, however I need more protection and this is just merely a stopgap until a seidio active case/holster combo is available

"tucked in" does not equal "protected", not to mention the additional large openings provide that many more areas for dust and minute debris to enter the case (and yes, I've had this happen to me so I know it can happen). But back to the buttons themselves, as an example, take the Poetic Atmosphere case. While I will say that one does not provide the moderate shock/breakage protection that classic TPU case does, it does fully cover the buttons, and even more importantly, it goes a long way toward making the buttons easier to find and to press (which on the N4 is very helpful). Either way, none of these cases provide the grip, protection, overall feel of the Seidio Active case, not even a contest in those areas. Over the last few years I've found that this case provides maximum protection, without the over-the-top bulk of, for example, the Otterbox.
Great skins for a great price.
Seems like it might look nice with the LG bumper. Might have to give it a try.

Carbon one looks cool. Anyone tried yet?
A few people on reddit bought it and they said it has been great so far in terms of fitment. One had the carbon one and the other I believe had titanium or leather.

I love it! lol, nexus doesn't slide every where now and it makes the phone look pretty awesome, can't speak for the leather looking ones but the carbon fiber one looks amazing. I'll take pics with my friends phone later.
I definitely recommend this if you don't mind covering up the glass back, I prefer it this way TBH, the effect is cool, but not cool engh I'd keep this sort of protection off.
Just received my titanium skin, it looks fantastic. Haven't applied it yet (I'm at work; haven't even taken it out of its vinyl pouch), but here's a quick picture so you can get an idea of the texture. I scratched at it a bit, it feels a lot harder than you'd expect.
Finally applied it, took maybe five minutes. The fit is perfect and it feels very nice. Photos don't really do it justice.
