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

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.

Any 0.3mm super thin TPU cases?

Anybody aware of any super thin TPU cases for the GS4? Something like http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0089KJW3Y/ref=oh_details_o04_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1.
I had one of those for my GS3. It was amazingly thin and very grippy. Absolutely loved it.

Product will be slightly more heavy than 3 Grm but will be super thin ( as you can see on the IP5 demo video )
Thanks

The SPIGEN Bounce is the thinnest TPU case I've ever used or reviewed. You'll want to wait a bit for them to fix the design though. Revision 2 of this case will be killer.

In my opinion it´s overpriced, i have Meifeng case it´s very good quality and cost 6€, see here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2030443&highlight=meifeng+nexus+4
Also have Ringke Fusion but bit bulky for me and now i´m using Meifeng and the texture and grip it´s extraordinary.

I put mine on for 5 seconds and took it off. It fits but it comes off easy. And it's very smooth texture so it's very slippery. IMO Rearthe Ringke Slim is much much better.

Thats great I quite enjoy my original samsung sview cover only thing it lacked was protection this solves that, if I hadn't ordered the spigen clear cover case for my sview I would be all over this

Like space age pod for your phone

Damnit spigen stahp

i'm not that impressed, especially based on what they are charging and i own 3 spigen cases for my s4... then again, i'm also not happy with their marketing tactics when it comes to the neo hybrid frames.

This really resembles the UAG case I got from amazon for my s3. Was going to go with UAG again but this has a front cover too so may try this first.

Everyone is complaining about the frames on neo hybrid. I'm one of them. And they don't seem to care about. Unfortunately

Wow, that is an awesome case. Looks Spigen is going to be taking more of my money.

Well I understand that, but honestly I get the feeling they don't have the inventory for that yet. Considering I still had to wait a couple extra days for a black one, it just makes more business sense for them to sell the full units only until they have an excess of frames. Now, in 6 months if they're still selling the case only, then that would be not cool.

The "customization"
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using xda app-developers app

it's deceptive marketing with the neo frames. i know if the FTC was made aware Spigen would have two choices: a) offer the frames b) stop marketing the product as customization.

dont know about that.
I wonder if they will only make this one on white,because many people may want some other colors.so maybe they could make at least the same colours they did on slim armor normal cases.

Cool case. I may buy one to use at work (I'm in the construction business). However, using it when I'm not at work - no. It's just too bulky in my opinion.

Clever idea but definitely seems that it would be too bulky for every day use

Tech21 Evo Check

Picked up this case from Verizon ended up being $30 after my discount I absolutely love it. Excellent feel in the hands and doesn't seem too bulky. Worth the money in my opinion wanted to share some pics.

Love this case. I have it in smokey black for my quite black Pixel XL

My only gripe about these cases is that they have terrible button feedback/pressing.

Only my power button is tough but seems to be getting better with usage

Yep awesome case but the button feedback is horrible. Especially the power button, have been using it for a few months now.

The buttons are a bit rigid but the case is so nice in hand that it overshadows that negative
