Has anyone used this one ? any reviews ?
ebay item=261142980675
Sorry cant post links yet!
Haven't used it, no.
I'm not sure I like the look of that brushed finish.
It's also worth noting that silicon will be harder than TPU and (in my opinion) less nice to the touch.

Thanks! they seem to have a soft gel version too but that might attract lot of dust!

TPU cases might attract some dust - but I don't think noticeably more than a silicon case.
Although both types will undoubtedly gather dust between the screen and case edges.
You should try something like the Diztronic TPU case. It has great reviews, a matte finish and is relatively inexpensive.
Anyone know of a quality leather sleeve?
I used to be quite a fan of http://www.senacases.com/ , back with my original iphone 2G I had their slim leather pouch case.
Unfortunately, they don't have cases for the Moto X... However, you may want to check the phone's dimensions in comparison to other phones and maybe you can find one that still fits.
I've found that sleeves and cases for the Samsung Galaxy S5 are a good fit for the 2014 X. I bought one of these: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00L1V9HW4/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o09_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 and it fits perfectly. Even snap-in flip cases work, but you have to modify the cutout for the X's volume buttons.
Depends on what kind of leather sleeves you like OP. I ordered one after a while of debating really... They have multiple colours here.

These don't look like leather. I'd be interested in hearing your opinion on this one when yours arrives.

Thanks. How is the fit? What is the interior like? My biggest concern is that if dirt or sand is easily embedded in the lining, sliding the phone in an out of it could scratch the glass.

So it's more like a soft cloth inside. I've always had a screen protector on all my phones using this (have used the same type of sleeve for other phones as well) so never thought of scratches.
I've been using the Snugg Galaxy S5 Pouch since October and put all my cards in the front. The picture with the card in the front is not the actual color, that's just the flash from the camera.

I ended up getting one from saddleback leather. Its full grain, quality leather with a 100 year guarantee so I can't complain
The iPhone 6 fits perfect its a little tight at first but is great once it breaks in
My leather case
I have this one which I really like.
https://www.etsy.com/transaction/261889011
I'm looking at this seller on Etsy.
They do felt and leather. I actually really like the felt.
Hello,
I've come across this case on ebay, which is a bumper + gorilla glass back cover from what I understand.
~I can't post external links because of my post meter, so just search ebay for "Luphie Metal Bumper Gorilla Glass Cover Slim Case for Samsung Galaxy S6 /S6 Edge".
It looks amazing imo, wondering if anyone know anything about that case.
It pretty much preserves the original looks of the phone which I love, I wonder if it does protect it in case it falls though.
Metal bumpers will kill your GPS completely and (slightly) decrease your cellular signal when it's on.
I don't have this one, but I bought a different metal bumper.
I would love to hear from someone with actual experience with this case if the above statements are true. This is a pretty sweet looking case!
The Rhino Shield will do that for you ~ They have pretty high protection (4 meters free fall!) without any bulk.
You can find here: http://www.evolutivelabs.com/collections/rhino-shield-products-for-samsung-galaxy-s6
Its pre-order but they ship this week
Yes, but the RhinoShiels isn't as pretty! I still wonder about the real world use of this one.
I ordered the case the OP is referring to. I will make a thread when it arrives.
looks great, keep us posted, bro.
BTW, I have a metal bumper case, and it works well.

I can completely verify this. I have a Verus Iron Shield case and while it's a premium feeling case, my GPS signal is **** and I'm REALLY noticing the signal loss problems. I'm actually in the market to find a replacement case because the issue is so bad.

Bummer! I have the spigen neo hybrid, and it's very similar to the verus in looks, but doesn't kill the signal. The "bumper" around the edge is plastic.

I had the metal neo hybrid and it did kill the signal. Not worth it.

I assume that's why they're making plastic now.

No they have two different products, the metal one and plastic. I have both.
Anyone has any feedback yet?
I got one of those metal bumpers for the edge. They are super nice quality. Will impact signal slightly. They look epic but are very sharp, literally. Didn't feel comfortable, but it was also the edge phone so our could have been that too.

Dustin,
Like your reviews, thanks!
Have you come across a case that snaps in to a clip holster like a Seidio Surface or Dilex?
Thanks,

My Orzly Flexislim will arrive tomorrow. It almost 4X more expensive frm my current Nilkin Nature case. Nilkin is good but i missed Simplism Ultrathin for Z1. The material is perfect & super thin. For Z2 & later device, they changed with shame disappointing material. Lets see how good orzly really is
⚅ χρєʀια™ z5
Orzly Flexislim is the best thinnest case so far!
✓ χρєʀια™ z5
Has anyone put one of the flexislim cases on the Green Z5? I'm wondering how it looks
From orzly cases i will only consider the fusion bumper in black if i don't mind covering the sides because it seems like there are better cases for preserving more of the beauty of sony design. Fusion bumper clear sides are matte, not transparent and the thinner one is all matte. For all transparency it seems that spigen ultra hybrid clear or spigen liquid crystal (thinner but with less protection) are better options.
Thanks for the advice! I have one very much like the fusion bumper but with clear sides. It's OK, but the back plastic picks up so much fingerprints. I was considering the Orzly matte "smoke white" one as it sort of looks like the colour might still show through to a certain degree. With the clear one with all the reflections and fingerprints you don't notice the colour too much, especially with the gel part being a little bit rounded. Also I don't really like the feel of gel or plastic, I assume the matte one has a slightly matte feel to it which I might like. I might just have to take the plunge and get one and see how it goes.
Anyone get the Spigen cases for the Z5?

I didnt buy any spigen cases. Those guys are not what they used to be and i dnt feel there cases are that good
I have brought the flexicase shown in the above video. The case fits perfectly and my phone still looks very slim whilst giving it some protection against knocks and scratch's. I would highly recommend it
Please can you tell us how does the real product look like? As you can see in the photo on the official site the cut on the back camera is different from the cut shown on every other site, like Amazon, where the cut gets an oval triangular shape.

Mine are straight off amazon so im guessing the stock photo is wrong
Already have a sandstone feel case from Krusell, which I love. Although they also have a leather case also, it seems too bulky. This being the most expenaive phone I ever bought I want the cases to feel nice in the hand, not rubbery or plasticky. Tried a dbrand skin, but I still felt anxious every time I layed the phone down and would place it ever so gently.
So, anyone got some leather or fabric cases they had nice experience with?
fitbag, amazon, best ones, comes in leather and fabic and I have used both, awesome.
Agree, look at fitbag...
dont spend $25 on fitbag, use an oakley sunglasses sleeve for like $6 and it is the exact same thing

But what about the difference in THICKNESS? The sleeve for my Oakley's are quite thin and don't offer much protection. The fitbag's, on the other hand, don't seem to be in stock so I can't even test the differences yet.
I have a canvas case, it feels very good.
In absence of the official alcantara case I spent hours looking for a leather case, found krusell and ordered leather and sandstone, now waiting for them to arrive... Looks like screen is not protected though in both.. Was hoping the leather krusell was a good replacement so shame to read it is bulky.
Fitbag look nice but rather not have a sleeve case as tend to use my phone a lot and don't want to remove it every time with 2 hands.
Why Samsung don't make premium leather cases like the iPhone cases with a nice small lip at the front I will never understand

After I bought the sandstone from krusell, I also bought their leather one. Don't know if mine was defective or not, but the band that's glued on the margines of the case came off on one side. It's a real shame, cause it really felt great in the hand. I'm still considering if I should give it another shot and buy one more.

I saw someone else on amazon Germany had that issue too, if its a design fault it should be covered under their lifetime warranty

Why did you stop using the sandstone case? I see it has no screen lip whatsoever which is one downside..

I didn't stop. I use(d) both. The sandstone is really thin and has a nice grip. The lack of a lip is not an issue for me, since I never put the phone screen down.
Thanks.. Look forward to receiving mine, I don't want to install a screen protector as they all seem to have issues so a small lip would be great
If the leather case has the same issue you have I'll be claiming on warranty

Just to update you. I bought another leather case from Krusell. And this one feel just as great as the first one but it feels alot more solid. I see no deterioration as the first one had.

Thanks. I received mine too, although have stuck with the sandstone case as prefer the slimline fit and how grippy it is. Leather case from krussel I find quite slippy in the hand.
