Looks similiar to the rearth rinke and diztronic ultra thin cases. Try one and give a review!

Hmmm... you can get similar case for 9.99 though.

If SGP made a bumper, I'd be all over.
The ultra thin case does look similar to those on eBay indeed.

what is up with the cutouts on the render? they are awfully tiny on the volume and power. I hope that's not how it really looks but it's not really worth it since you can get the same thing from rearth.

I'll pass. I can have two different colors Ringke Slim cases for that price.

It also includes a screen protector. That's worth the price. Buying one now.

I hope they make a clear version :fingers-crossed:

not if you already have the screen protector. I might buy it anyways but gonna dig around for a coupon code first.

Only if they made a rugged case...

I just placed my order . I live in Canada so it might be a while before I can post pictures.

A Neo Hybrid Ex Bumper to be exact, and I will gladly pay $20-$30.
Go to their FB page and post that you want a bumper case, their already a few post already doing the same.
Sent from my Nexus 4

posted on their fb wall about having other thin cases out there with way lower price that what they'll be offering. also pointed out the how poetic bumper sales are thriving for their bumper case...
their response was "the price depends on what the package comes with"...so I had guessed they'll include their screen protector with the case...but still cant see why they proceed with the project when you can get the same case for around $2 on ebay..

This case is quite a disappointment...I associate SGP with making unique cases, not something so obviously generic looking. I'd really like to see them release something for the Nexus 4 like the Neo or Ultra Hybrids they had for the Galaxy Nexus, or the Linear Metal or Hybrid EX cases they have for the iPhone 5. Now those all look unique from the other stuff out in the market currently.

they will, it will take some time though because on the limited availability of the phone

I think the quantity of these phones in the market is enough to warrant a good sale...just look at the poetic bumper case :
ebay = 818
amazon = more than 149 (based on reviews number, so the exact quantity should be more than that)
They've raked up more than $10 grand of revenue from a single case model...
and sales from both sites are still counting, since other case manufacturers are still skeptic of the market size for this phone's casing...

received my case today!
feels nice, smooth of course lol.
but it feels a bit loose, but it does hold the phone in. The top part of the case is a bit loose with the phone in it, the bottom part is firm and in place.
Maybe because i have a back screen protector on it, but i highly doubt it.
gonna shoot them a email in a bit about it

this is so going to be a product marketing failure...
throwing something very few wants, in a market already filled with it, at a higher price...thats like 3 flukes in one go
its like selling shaved ice out in the cold, in the middle of winter, at a higher price than in summer.
disappointed in SGP
-sigh-

Did you see if you could bend the corners in for a better fit? Kind of like with the original, non-revised Ringke Slim.

What we really need is a case that only covers the top and bottom and leaves the sides exposed. Would love to take full advantage of those curved edges.

i like the barely there by case-mate better.
Could you post pics of it after you get it? Its always so hard to tell what the color is going to look like from the ad photos - the case mate barely-there case's black color just looks too contrasting from the gunmetal. I'm hoping this will match a bit better.
will it still fit the google dock ????

I doubt it (i dont have one though) as the docks are designed to fit snuggly with the phone, so i suspect the only thing that will fit with the dock will be those shield type cases e.g. Zagg Invisishield.
thanks was waiting for this one and pulled the trigger since it's currently on sale

Good timing isn't it with the mothers day sale on
The only down side is with this one they don't have any screen protectors like they do with the 3GS version
So i just need to decide on one of those
got mine today
looks pretty good gotta say and adds little bulk
i had a gelli case on it before that i liked, but it was difficult to take on and off to put in my car dock.
i'll post pics later for any interested ppl

Please do!
Also.. what kind of feel does it have? Is it a soft-touch finish
yea lets see pics!
x3 on the pix!
Mine arrived yesterday which i wasn't expecting
Overall I'm happy with it, I don't think I would have paid the full $19.99 for it as its a bit flimsy looking. I was expecting the case to be more like the iphone 3gs version which has a rubbery feel to it.
It's easy to pop in and out of the case.
The gap for the volume controls could be thinner.
I don't have any of the google docks but I would probably bet you'd have to take the phone out the case.
Some of the guys at work that have N1's have the Zagg Invisishield so if you are feeling anal the incipio will fit over that
I'll get some piccies today
pix
like bewa mentioned it's not the same rubbery feel to it like the iphone case, which what i was hoping but this is good to imo since often times those cases with the rubbery feel end up peeling at some point. this case is pretty thin, thin enough where if it were made of the same material it wouldn't feel any different than stock.
It's a good light weight unobtrusive case for everyday use, I figure I can slap on the gelli case for the occasional drunken night out.
sorry for the crappy pics
cheers dude
Updated the first post with a link to your post
I'm sure you can find something like this on ebay soon. In Hong Kong you get the same case for $2.00, quality is good too.
thx for the pics. I wish someone would maek this style of case without the obnoxiously huge logo on the back.
i've been waiting for the feather for a long time now cause i thought it was going to be like the iphone's feather, but it doesnt seem to be.
any chance of getting a picture of the inside? is the inside of the case rubbery like the iphone or shiny?
i also dont like how it doesnt cover the corners fully. if you drop it, it'll probably take a toll on your corners.. maybe i should try the barely there
anyway,
thanks a lot for the pictures, definitely helping out my decision

its the same on the inside as it is on the outside i'm afraid :S
I was hoping even that would have some sort of grip on it but no it doesn't!
I just can't understand why they've gone for this approach on the feather for the N1 rather than the same as on the iphone versions! personally that would have been better in my view!
I held out on a case for this one based on the experience i had with the 3gs and i think after a week of usage (or less) i'm pretty dissapointed
I'll keep the case on and search for something similar to the 3GS version and look for a screen protector that doesn't reduce touch screen responsiveness...
case looks alright but I feel it's lacking a decent amount of coverage. Think I'll stick with my Seidio Innocase II

[Q] thinnest case availble

I am looking for a super thin case, what do you guys suggest?

I also have 2 Nillkin cases, which are very thin (thinner than any tpu I've put on), but this one is definitely even thinner.
There are also "skins" you can put on the phone, but if you ever want to use the phone in a dock, then the skin will cause a problem...so I prefer a thin case that's quick and easy to remove.
Here is the ebay link where I bought mine from. The auction is over, but I'm sure if you click around on that page, you'll find another auction with the same case: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=320735735257&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT
Wow!!! That's a thin case.

Trident Aegis Case
lol...trident aegis is like the antithesis of "thin case."
thanks mm... that's exactly what i'm looking for. anyone else sell something like that in the states?
how long did yours take to arrive?
Anything from hong kong usually takes about 2-3 weeks to arrive
make certain that you notice there are areas of the phone that go unprotected with this case...it's light, quick to pop on and off, looks good, thin in your pocket. But if you drop it on the street, you're might have a problem.
what else do people suggest? if i wanted to go the full corner cover.
There is a pretty good tpu case at Walmart for like 15 bucks. Not thin compared to the nilkin, but covers the corners
EDIT: and is also one of the thinnest tpu cases i've seen
what's the brand name and do you have a link?

this is the case I have. Its cheap and its very thin. I have no problems with it. The only thing slightly off with this case is that it is difficult to hit the up/down volume button and the power button but its not too bad.
Ive been through 3 cases.
Thinnest probably is BodyGlove Grasp. I'm using that now.
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA App
Also, if your e looking for good protection, but fairly thin, easy to pull out of pocket, I recommend seidio surface case. It fully covers the case, but is thin and feels good in the hand. Someone here said the case scratched his phone, but I can't even see how thata possible because it is felt lined. I've had it over 2months now, and not a scratch. I got the optional holster with it, and I use it for most of my other cases. I have 8 for this p phone.
You don't wanna know where this was sent from.
do you have link for the body glove grasp? I would like to see that?

My friend and I using that case right now, we ordered 2 different date (different sellers) and I got one with full cover and he got the one look like one on the pic. Btw, good case for the price, fit very good, exept the corner on his case.
I've got the TPU case from Amazon (can't post links, not enough posts yet) -- it really isn't thin at all... The corner is not exposed on the one I have. I mean, it was only $2.80 + shipping.. it fits perfectly, but it is just too thick for my taste, so I never use it. Without the case, the phone is nice and thin, with the TPU case, it is just too thick. The whole point in getting this phone it that it was less than 11 mm thick. With the case, it is more like 13 mm... meh..

Ultra Thin Air Transparency (crystal clear) review.

This is my quick review of Ultra Thin Air Transparency case. (-Crystal clear)
Let me start with the fact I HATE any cases. It's cover all beauty of the phone.
But after seeing this one, I ordered just for the sake of curiosity
You will ask me why SGP case witch is cost $25. Especially if you can find the same style of cases for the chipper price.
The answer I paid for quality. I know SGP for a long time. And during all this time I was not disappointed with quality and customer care witch is superior.
In the package you will find:
- Ultra Crystal screen protector
- Microfiber cloth
- 3 jelly bean buttons !
- Serial number (to verify the authenticity of the product)
- Spam (as usual)
- And case finally

Again I just order it my case. Nothing else, but SGP always pleasing gifts for us.
Even the box looks very detailed guys.
You will tell me who cares about that.
Agree, but again I see a little things where each dollar go....
Ok so I will not install free Crystal Clear screen protector. But if you interesting how the quality is? I will recommended to look my another review or another my review here
The quality of the case is top.
It designed for owners who prefer minimalistist-style protection that servers to accentuate the unique look of the phone while protecting it from damage.
Another good thing about it. All case is UV coated and this is very important.
It do not hide all phone design like with other cases. And most important all the sexy reflections still here. The case looks like made it from glass, not plastic.
Of course, the quality of the cut is impeccable.
It's ultra slim fit and super light weight.
Let's talk about protection. It will not secure your phone like some other cases. Example: "Otterbox". But it will give you maximum protection as it can with minimalistist-style.
As you can see there is a gap. It is safe to put the phone like that.
Lets move to something else. I was smiled when I saw that.
While playing with the phone randomly I activated in accessibility selection "Flash notification".... and forgot to turn off. During the night I woke up because of the fact that some light flashing in my room.
Check this out. (sorry for the bad quality pictures)
guys it's really bright and even if you fully close your flash light, it will still glow
Even at day light you can see it.
Some another picture:
Conclusion:
-$25 in my opinion is worth it ! (many gifts, many surprises)
I definitely recommend this case If you are looking for something more than just protection.
Other colors are also available on the official site.
Beware of fake products

looks nice, would of consider it if the case went around the entire outside edge.
Nice thanks for the pics. I am considering this case too but will probably go with Luvvitt's version: http://www.amazon.com/LUVVITT®-CRIS...=1370581581&sr=8-3&keywords=luvvitt+galaxy+s4
I have Luvvitt case for N7 and N10 and they are very high quality.
Is that "13" in the case or the on the phone?

I also have it
along with about 10 other
I feel that it no fits snugly
talk for my case naturally perhaps in others differ
somehow there is a slight gap
many like it, but do I not use it for that reason
Does anyone have a similar opinion
Sorry for my bad English
I have a Ringke Slim since I bought the phone 6 months ago, it's pretty much the same but not transparent, I love it, but I am looking for a slim case like these, rigid, but that covers the top front and bottom front.
Do anyone know of something like this? I LOVE thin cases but I want something that covers all the surface, not just the sides.
I have this case for quite some time
whenever I put it on I feel that somehow not tightly around the phone
I do not know is it my only, or there are other people who are of this opinion

I had 1 case ****canned it. Don't use cases now, the manufactures go through so much design to make these phones fit and be slim it is almost a shame to put a case on it. I have dropped mine at least 8 times a few little dings, I wash it daily with soap and water and have yet to have an issue..
.lovemeicase.com/goods.php?id=74[/url] I just got this case and it is awesome, plus it doubles as a crime deterrent. I bought it off eBay though for only 25 I only knew about these cases because I had one for my iPhone 5.

Soap is not good on the phone my friend.
Body Glove case. Really nice grip, anti microbial, and feels very high quality. Snugs the phone tight. Also have the ZAGG glass protector and it works fine with it.
Spigen Tough Armor Case - Gunmetal
This case provide good protection and is very compact. I dropped my phone once and it seemed to provide very good protection.
The buttons are easy to press and I actually like the buttons are flat along the edge of the case, so the chance to mistakenly press the buttons is less!
The cutouts are very good. There are 4 tiny bumps at the back corners that prevent the back from scratches and lift the speaker a little bit above the surface you placed on, so less damping to the speaker.
This case feels high quality made, easy to hold in the hand, and looks good.
Agreed

I actually bought this case before I even bought the phone! It just gives the phone a rugged look and feel. With the phone by itself I didn't necessarily care for the look of it and knew I wanted a case for the S5. Couldn't be happier with this purchase. I even like the ridge edges it has and makes it easier to grip.
My newest spigen case in my collection.
Picked this up from a Cellaris kiosk in the mall.. Had one on my note 2 for the last year and it did an excellent job protecting my phone, so I went back and got one for my S5, I love the kick stand, but the one on my note 2 case seemed more durable than the one on my S5 cases.
They will usually mix and match colors to suit you, and I went with this combo, for the heck of it heh.
heres a link to their webpage, they have other colors at the kiosk, but you get an idea. most of the cases are cruddy, but the kiosks have otterboxes, kraken, and some other decent named cases.. this case set me back about $30.. worth it in my opinion.

cheers
I'm using the incipio teal/cyanish with grey. its kind of funny how small the phone is when I have to take it out (like 2 times now) but this thing is durable. I've dropped it and kicked it a few times and it holds up. love how it keeps my camera nice and tucked in. looks pretty cool too but it's built for abuse it seems.
These are my cases up to this moment. unfortunately, i can't use most of them since i'm using the OEM qi.

Slickwraps Natural Leather full back version

I saw the full back version on Slickwrap's website a few months back and really wanted one but couldn't afford it at the time (not a fan of the version that stops at the visor). Fast forward to a few weeks ago and I go to purchase it, only it's no longer there.
I sent an e-mail off to customer services to check I wasn't going crazy and merely imagined the full back version. Cue some back and forths and it turned out they pulled it because they were having issues with it consistently sticking across the top edge. They still had some laying about though so very kindly offered me the option to purchase one for $10 with $5 shipping to the UK. Absolute bargain and superb customer service. Thanks again to Dolores.Was told it would take 21-31 days but only took a week to arrive.
Installation was as easy as any other skin, the hardest part was getting my dbrand off. Heated up the leather with a hairdryer and stuck it on. Easy peasy. The added grip is a massive bonus and I've found the little bit of extra depth helps with one handed use. Now to wait for the patina to develop

It feels like leather because it is real leather. Smells fantastic too

Sorry to do this but you're wrong. I do not have the Leather Series. I have the Natural Series leather. It's the same as what you have, but covers all of the back.

Hmmm, I was looking for a full back version of the natural series leather but I don't see any on their site. What is the SKU of your's?

It was a factory second or something like that, so not publicly sold. OP had to email SW in order get his hands on this.

I saw the full back version on Slickwrap's website a few months back and really wanted one but couldn't afford it at the time (not a fan of the version that stops at the visor). Fast forward to a few weeks ago and I go to purchase it, only it's no longer there.
I sent an e-mail off to customer services to check I wasn't going crazy and merely imagined the full back version. Cue some back and forths and it turned out they pulled it because they were having issues with it consistently sticking across the top edge. They still had some laying about though so very kindly offered me the option to purchase one for $10 with $5 shipping to the UK. Absolute bargain and superb customer service.
