Any recommendations for a solid case? No rubber or soft plastic?
Its for a keyboard mod.
Thin is also a bonus.

Yes, I believe that's the one mackster248 is suggesting.
Bugger, its close but the bezel doesn't go all the way around the phone.
Check out the Seidio surface. It covers the lip and is plastic.
That looks quite promising, is that the one with the kickstand?
The one for the galaxy nexus would be perfect.

And it sucks, because the metal cases can just look so slick. Here's one I just found for the Nexus 4, that looks great. But I like my signal strength.

I am happy with the original case for touch HD.
I prefer to slide the phone out when using it.
My intention is to protect the phone from dust and scratch when in the pocket.
thanks.

I would prefer the below case. Anyone has used it before?
http://www.amazon.com/Monaco-Vertical-Carrying-Case-Sensation/dp/B0058V25ZY/ref=pd_sim_sbs_cps_2
so the name for such kind of case is "Vertical Carrying Case"
The below one seems to fit my needs perfectly. any idea?

What exactly is TPU? is it like rubber? i got the Gel Skin from tmobile store free when i got the phone and it serves its purpose but the case just attracts mad pocket lint and dust. does TPU do that?
i dont get why you guys would spend on a case so expensive when you can get one on ebay for a cheaper price.

Hard rubber. It has a nice feel. Has a nice look to it as well.

I have the Melkco (orange stripe on black leather) and I can tell you a few things about it.
1. It looks great. This case lends the Sensation a genuinely premium look and feel. I was (and still continue to be) impressed.
2. It fits perfectly. The handset is snug and does not budge.
3. All sides are covered. The top covers the digitizer completely. No particulates make their way in.
Get it.

Personally I don't like tpu-like case. That is a cloth on the phone which make it look ugly.
I would like to get the phone out pocket, with leather case, looks decent,
draw out the phone, a shiny baby....
While waiting for the official bumper to get back in stock, I ordered the Sena ultra thin pouch for the HTC One X. The Nexus 4 and HTC One X are within a mm in each dimension so I figured I'd give it a shot.
It was a tight fit to begin with bit after a day or two it began loosening up. I'm digging it. Very sleek cover and quality leather. While I would still prefer the always on protection of the bumper, there is a classy quality with keeping my N4 in this Sena leather pouch.

It's a tight fit but from what I've seen Sena cases are meant to be pretty form fitting.

Sena cases are typically very tight in the beginning from my experience (I have used them on my previous iPads and HTC Desire). After using for a week or two they would loosen up a bit and fit perfectly. The leather they use on their cases are top notch.
The only concern I have with such case is that, unlike HTC phones, the wake/power button of the Nexus 4 is on the side. For a tight fitted case like this, the phone could be woken up by unintentional touches.
Yes, the seam on the sides are sewn inwards. I did have a problem when I first put the phone in with the power button being depressed. The case loosened up pretty quick though and now I don't have that issue. I've been using the case for about four days.

Poetic may become my favorite accessory maker. They are making sooo many products for our phone. I really like the look of this hard case too. The biggest thing for me is how it covers all the corners where most slim cases only cover the sides.

looks exactly like the Rearth SLIM... plus it uses the name "SLIM"
$5 for a case is quite a steal.
I completely agree, except that it covers all 4 edges. For 5, ill take a gamble on it.

It leaves the top and botton exposed, no?
This looks like a really nice case though, and seeing how much I'm loving the bumper case, I'll order one of these.

oh... when he defined edge, i thought he meant the corners
this case doesnt necessarily cover the WHOLE edge, it covers more than the rearth one but not all.. cut out for usb is bigger
aww..wouldve jumped on this if its not because it doesnt cover the bezels...
anyways, having a diztronic & soon to arrive poetic-bumper is enough for me.
unless something really cool comes out, Im a happy camper...for now...
hopefully...
what? $5?...man thats cheap..
must....resist...
i have to say i got one of these cases for 5 bucks and its pretty great. now its a 4.50.. no brainer on amazon for that price.
I have one of these and used it prior to my Ringke Fusion case.
It got thrown from the car once in the SLIM case and it did its job well, protected the phone.
My old case is almost broken and time for a new one.
First case : Xibicen Aluminium, i found it at 30$

I'm using ringke fusion and it's great, the only negative thing is that the back which is transparent scratches and gets dirty easily.
I saw a review of the Xibicen Aluminium and it's written that it causes signal issues and NFC is unusable because the case is made of alluminium

The backplate doesn't come off does it? That would make a killer bumper case if it did
It does but it needs to be held by the two screws. The screws hold it all together. It would be an awesome bumper if it only stayed in place.

I would give this case a 10/10 if it weren't for the yellowing that appears about 2 months in.
Clear TPU cases have shown to yellowing beast no matter the brand.
so 6 out of 10 for me.

Iahve the silver N6P inside a clear Spigen Hybrid - it's shows yellow clearly.
That said, I've gone to the Verus High Pro Shield - a similar design to the Spigen with the TPU & metal band 2 piece design.
LOVE it!
It's black but thinner than the Spigen.
The slimmest and most transparent of them all: Nillkin Nature.

I have the smoked Ringke Fusion and the clear part on the back hasn't yellowed at all.
I prefer the Case-Mate Naked Tough - Clear over the Spigen Ultra Hybrid.
