True but I rather be "bulky" and have peace of mind than to cry later with a broken phone.

I bought one of these cases when i first got my phone. STAY AWAY. From the white one atleast. The color of the case used to mess with my camera sensor causing all my shots to come out all washed out. Case sure did look good though.

That HTC Sensation Tough Case looks like the OtterBox commuter.
I am using the Commuter and I love how it looks, much better build quality that the one for the EVO 4G and HD2.

The case looks much better in the pictures, but still is a nice looking case. I got it from the link in the op. The free goodies and nothing special. And the case fits perfectly.

I use a FlexVue Case, bought off eBay.... Its pretty cool the way the middle is clear, kinda fancy if ya ask me !

Nexus 4 Bumpers Confirmed [Back in Stock US 12/11/12]

Google's own Dan Morill has confirmed that "Bumper Cases" will be offered for the Nexus 4. This is the first official accessory that we've heard of after the TouchStone charger.
Dan Morrill 1 hour ago
+Dave Ranucci We've actually got some bumpers (ring-like cases that wrap the side but not the back) coming as accessories for Nexus 4, if that's how you roll.
On the back, there is indeed a small raised ridge, which should prevent scratches if not breaks.

Keep in mind this Nexus 4 doesn't have a ridiculous steel frame. Also the back is Gorilla Glass 2.

Nice, I was hoping for this. I love OEM accessories.

Any pictures of what the bands look like?

God I love bumbers on my phones.

cool! I can't wait to see what they look like.. maybe multiple colors?!

As long as they don't add to much bulk around the edges I'll get one. Unless the design on the back is more ostentatious in person, in which case I'll get a case that covers it.

Possible bumper case?
Look at the purple ring like bumper case in the pictures:

Is that really a bumper or is it just the lighting? If the bumper case is indeed that snug then that would be amazing.

That's definitely just lighting.

I definitively want to get a bumper because I love OEM accessories and this phone looks too good to put in a case.

I've never owned bumpers. Do they really protect devices well? As far as I can tell, they leave the front and the back of devices vulnerable to scratches and breaks. But if I'm wrong, please correct me.

They protect the sides and corners and will absorb shock (although not too well) It is a minimalist case, if you are worried about scratches you could invest in front and back screen protectors or have faith in Corning's Gorilla Glass 2.

I think the combination of a screen protector and a bumper will be enough for all but the most paranoid, Gorilla Glass is able to stand up to a lot of punishment.

Bumpers are awesome!
It doesn't add much bulk and protects the device well.

LG Nexus 4 Ballistic Shell Gel SG Series Case Review

Ok I gave this case a good two weeks of use so here's an honest review. Please excuse my horrid writing skills :silly:
I bought this case from a vendor on ebay for $22 shipped to my door step (He only had one in stock). When I recieved the case it was sexy. The materials used to make the Ballistic cases are top notch. This case makes you feel like your Nexus 4 will not die when it falls off of something. It is on the larger side of cases but I like big bulky cases.
OK for the past two weeks I have been using the Ballistic case non stop. I have dropped my phone from a pretty tall height onto concrete using this case. I was on a tall ladder about 12ft high and my phone was on top playing pandora. Well I derped and forgot the phone was up on top when I went to move the ladder. Lets just say it sounded bad when myt Nexus hit the concrete. I picked it up thinking of the worst and what do you know the case protected the Nexus 4 from any damage! So the case paid for itself already! The only negative thing I can say about this case is the rubber used is a little too soft and it does collect dust. Other then that I give this case a 9.5/10!
Ballistic Cases make otterbox's look like cheap plastic snap together ebay cases compared to the LG Nexus 4 Ballistic Shell Gel SG Series Case. I will never buy from another casemaker again!

Thanks for the review.
Do you have a screen protector? How does the case fit with the screen protector?
Does the case cause the phone to get hot at all? I wonder sometimes if these thick cases cause devices to run warmer thus reducing the life of the phone.
Also is that a custom rom you're running? What clock/weather widget are you using?
Thanks again!

No screen protector on my device so I couldn't tell ya. Um no my device never gets hot with or without the case. And I am running the stock rom and the widget is HD Widgets.

What icons are you using on your launcher? Good review by the way.

Nice review. I have this same case and it is great. the response when pressing the power button is really good. The case makes the phone feel solid and secure in hand. I previously had the official bumper and while it showed off the phone it was slippery and I doubt it would have really protected it on a fall. I would have saved myself weeks of angst if I had bought the Ballistic case when I first got my N4.

Casemate carbon fibre case updated 28thmay with review

I dont know why someone didn't staelrt a thread on here about the amazing (but expensive) case. its an aluminium case with a real carbon fibre back and in my eyes it amazing.
ill do a full review on tuesday once I recieve mine
Updated 28th of may 2013
So I've just received my casemate in the post and first impressions was that the box was beautiful

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Just upon opening the box i realised how beautiful it actually is.
The carbon fibre on the back is 100% real carbon fibre.
The black plastic around the sides is a real bad fingerprint magnet. As you can see
And at the bottom of the back piece is a brushed aluminium plate with the casemate logo and bevelled edges around the back speaker but just as alot of cases the case is muffled the sound coming from the speaker when its on a flat surface but its not as bad as other cases I reviewed
What i only found out upon receiving the case that its a two piece case which is a big plus for me and it looks like theres enough of a gap between the screen and case to allow a glass screen protector.
The silver plastic buttons on the upper part of the case are really easy to press
The inside of the back piece is a nice rubbery feeling which would provide a small shock resistant and just protects the phone.
Over all the phone fits extremely well and that i would recommend everyone to get it. The only bad thing is that its a slippy case but that shouldn't stop you from buying it.
Heres more pictures of the phone in the case

That's looks not bad! Is it bulky?
I'm thinking of getting a d30 case though. Apparently it offers exceptional impact protection while maintaining a slim form factor.

Look at the photo above the line beginning with "Over all the phone fits...." showing the inside of the case.
They misspelled "pending" on the inside of the case.

That's a nice case indeed but.. how did they miss that?

Spell-check is also panding.

Nice case. How difficult do you think it would be to remove the logo from the brushed aluminum? And please let us know your results with the glass screen protector (and what one you used).

with the beveled edges around the speaker, does it keep the sound from being muffled when the phone is placed flat on its back? a lot of cases have been having this problem.

I like that one in red it looks slick, doesn't look bulky too. Might get that on my Xmas list thanks

The neo hybrid by Spigen is probably the best looking case for S4 for at least. However the Samsung Protective cover+ isn't bad at all too but not that good looking tho.

Really wanted that case but I got the white phone for a reason: I like to see my white phone. If they had an option to replace the black back with white I would have gotten the spigen. Ended up getting a clear tpu from best buy. Not the best protection but the lip on it covers the screen and looks good/keeps it slim.

UAG, offers valuable protection and durable and sturdy. The looks of it may deter some people but I love mine, dropped my phone a few times and no damage done.

I got a casemate tough case. It works well, its survived a couple of drops onto concrete. Not too bulky, and has good grip. Just don't get the white one. I got the white one, the TPU insert is still bright white, but the hard shell is now a dingy white/brown, and nothing I have tried has cleaned it.

Guys check this one: Kouros Meteor from kouroscases
Genuine leather, alcantara lining, and for a great price. Google for it. Recommended.

Im searching for a cheap fake s view cover with glass/plastic window instead of only a cut out window.
