Looks like a good case but I don't see a cut-out for the speaker?

thats what i thought at first because of the picture but looking through the reviews i found that it does actually have one and it lines up well. heres the review look in the comments http://www.amazon.com/review/R20DM9...AAKM44K&linkCode=&nodeID=&tag=#wasThisHelpful

Same thing, different branding.. pretty sure..

Ooh yeah! lol.... :silly:

I Just received my: Exact(TM) Armor Case for Google Nexus 4 Smart Phone Black (Amazon.com). It fits great with openings for speaker and both microphones. I already have a collection of tpu cases and Google's Bumper. At just a little under $8 shipped it can't be beat!

Received this case as well. I paid $4 and amazon prime upgraded me to one day shipping to avoid the snowstorm. I LOVE this case! Better than me Otterbox commuter case and also better than the ballistic I used to use. For the price this is a no brainer. Also I have not found this case slippery. The grips on the back catch my fingers. This will be my daily.

Those corner bumpers look like they would provide great protection. Might pick one of these up, just wish the back wasn't so damn ugly.

I just got mine on Friday all I can say is that this is the best 4 bucks I've spent. The case is firm the only problem is that it tries to peel off my screen protector on the side where the proximity sensor is but other than that, this case is very close to what ballistic will be offering

This was $3.95 when I ordered it and I have prime so the shipping was free, now it's $5.95.

Looks like good protection but damn it looks thick!

Got mine today, looks and feels much better than I expected and darn good quality. Definitely will do the job. Will have to see how it lines up with my screen protector.

Looks like it's just a skin. I doubt it would actually act as a bumper and protect your phone if dropped though.

This is the same guy who was earlier offering 5000 n4 like bumpers (which he'd be receiving soon) with a single one costing 50$. I guess he finally got it and it turned out not to be aluminum as he thought.
I strongly suspect he got it from china (alibai etc) where they were showing n4 aluminium bumpers for a few bucks for bulk orders, if I remember correctly.

I believe the question should be "How amazing COULD that be?" I've seen shoddy leather work and I've seen amazing leather work.
Ordered my Nexus 4 on the 13th. Still waiting.
Yes I would like to see implemented leather into a case/bumper like those stylish iPhone cases. Well if he does send you photos post them here.

SUPCASE Unicorn Beetle Case for Samsung S4

Found this cool case on Amazon. Really like the color combination and sporty profile. I may order the yellow/black one. But it seems like a one month waiting time!
Does it offer good protection?
I prefer the Otterbox Defender for my phones, but I am really impressed by this Unicorn Beetle Case. Does it offer good protection?
Looks like it does. The yellow is sleek as hell

looks pretty decent actually.
strange how the yellow one is $1.75, while all the other colors are $14.99
must be a mistake.
grabbed one at that price.
shipping is 2 times more expensive then the case itself
Very cool looking case.

Zerolemon Rugged Case

Just ordered the rugged extended battery case from zerolemon. I'll be posting a full review in this thread as soon as I receive it. Hopefully I can retire my modded Defender now

this is very exciting... having my phone come with me on missions in afghanistan with just the tpu case that comes with the 7500mah battery is making me nervous lol this is what i need!
While this looks really nice, do you think it would make my phone even heavier/bulkier?

Please post pics of the case when u receive it ....
Thanx :good:
I have one of those on my s4, the battery life is brilliant, you can't kill this thing no matter what you do before let's say 4 to 5 days.
It does add a lot of bulk though, but also makes it very drop resistant however due to the tpu wrap around.
Another downside is that when you do have to charge it, better expect 12 to 14 hours charging time...

Definitely best move made by company. ..
Now this rugged case give you unlimited choices to use with any extended battery and making custom backplate should be peace of cake ...
On other hand just go with battery and rugged case and you will have this for life ....
I'm ordering for S3 S4 and Note 3...
I'm now definitely zero lemon follower....
This company is going in good direction. ....one that listen customers and develop finally first time real rugged case&extended battery:sly:
Success is never final
Failure is fatal
Just ordered one for my galaxy s4 and can't wait to get it. Look very similar to otter box case with support for my 7500 mAh battery. And only $20 I love ZeroLemon
Sent from my SCH-I545 using xda app-developers app
If you're into bulky protective cases then I'd go with that.I love their batteries too
I hope the rugged case will be available on Amazon UK soon, because if I order from Amazon US, I've to pay £9.77 for shipping not including the custom fees and the case is only £13.02
I just got it yesterday. No review yet bit I figure some pics at least. The shell feels like tpu material as opposed to the silicon rubber used by most other rugged cases.

Otterbox Preserver

http://www.otterbox.com/Preserver-Series-for-Samsung-Galaxy-4/sam20-galaxy-s4,default,pd.html
Anyone thinking of getting one? I'm torn. I love my hornet defender (though the screen protector has proven itself cheaper than my previous defenders), and am torn on giving up that color combo. On the other hand, true waterproof protection could be worth it.
looks pretty solid but slightly too expensive for me.
i got both defender and commuter

The cost does seem prohibitive, but vzw may surprise and stock it, which means a possible discount...

Not really. I see quite a bit of differences. The only thing that looks the same is how it covers the home button. Otherwise the top by the speaker and sensors is totally different, more the the obex. The back is completely different as well as the sides

I agree, it doesn't look anything like the lifeproof other than it is a case. The back on the lifeproof (both versions) is completely clear.
Also, although there is no top view released pictures of the Otterbox Preserver, it is obvious that the headphone seal it quite a bit different from the lifeproof.
I was set to plunk down some money for the lifeproof, but the clear back and the flimsy headphone seal drove me away. It will be interesting to see more info on this case. But if it is not released soon, it will be irrelevant.
So this is really just their Armor series re-branded.
