Diztronic TPU Case with Kickstand - Galaxy S 4 Accessories

So ever since I owned my Evo 4G, I have found a kickstand an invaluable part of my daily phone use. Most phones don't come with them so I am always looking for a good kickstand case. Sadly, most of kickstand cases are not to my liking as they are either too thick, cover the sides but not the top and bottom of the phone, etc. The Seidio Surface w/kickstand for the S4 comes close but I don't like the cutouts for the buttons. It just feels awkward trying to push the buttons as I wish Seidio had covered them with TPU or silicone. My favorite non-kickstand cases are definitely the Diztronic TPU cases as they are very slim, fit perfectly, use high quality TPU, very reasonably priced, and provide good protection from everyday wear and tear. If only there was some way to add a kickstand to the Diztronic, this would be my perfect case.
So I then came across the following video where the guy added a Seidio kickstand to an Otterbox commuter and I figured I could do the same to my Diztronic case.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uCb1jNmdS4s
So here is what I did:
1. Found the cheapest Seidio Surface with kickstand I could. Turns out it was a purple version made for the One X+. $8 with free Prime shipping on Amazon. Perfect.
2. I extracted the kickstand by simply pulling back the felt and popping the kickstand out.
3. Used the bottom half of the Seidio case (which now has an empty/vacant slot where the kickstand use to be) and positioned it inside the Diztronic TPU case.
4. Using a sharpie, I utilized the empty kickstand mold to trace the outline of the kickstand onto the inside of the Diztronic.
5. Used an exacto knife to cut out the outline I just traced onto the inside of the Diztronic. This left a hole/gap just the right size for the kickstand.
6. I slipped the kickstand in and secured it with black electrical tape.
7. Put my modified Diztronic case onto my S4 and done!
The kickstand is very secure and props the phone up perfectly in landscape mode. Its slim, covers all sides of the phone, has a nice lip, and buttons are easy to push. Glad to finally have my perfect kickstand case!

Wow.
Great work. I'm with you in that I love the Diztronic cases, but I would for sure mess this up haha.

Diztronix experts: TPU vs hard case?

I'm trying to decide between the matte black TPU case and the hard case from Diztronix. What are the pluses and minuses on each?

Well I have the Matte black Case From Diztronic...Its perfect to me...feels great...fits right and looks very good...but just pick the case you like best my friend bcuz thats all that matters...
I was on their site for a brief moment after seeing the review for the TPU case (ordered one, it looks like a good case!) and saw the hard case as an option, so checked out the pictures.
Biggest difference is that being a hard case, it can't flex to put the phone in, so the top/bottom bits are missing like many other cases. That was the biggest reason I went for the TPU since it has protection all around.
Tpu vs hard case.
TPU is a tad thicker, but provides more protection. All corners are covered.
Hardcase is thinner and does not provide coverage on the top of the phone and bottom.
I have the TPU, and hardcase coming in on Monday. I opted for the hardcase because of the option to put it into my GNex Seidio Surface case. The tpu is too thick and makes the phone too long to fit so hoping this will fit and be my weekend warrior.
Saying all that, I currently got my LG Nexus Bumper. And I have to say I do like it a lot. I actually had one but since sold it when I first got the phone because using the bumper, the phone would not fit in any of my universal cases at the time.
I got the Diztronic tpu and had that and was quite happy with it. Seeing a few threads about the Seidio holster possibility, I went and bought the hard case because I already have the Seidio Surface spring holster. Between all of that happening, I finally got my bumper case and fell in love with the bumper all over again. Thinking I was going to sell it again because I couldn't find a decent holster to house the phone, I tried putting the phone with the bumper into my universal vertical belt holster which fit the phone and tpu case.
To my disbelief and amazement, the phone actually fit! The Diztronic stretched the the case enough where the bumper can pretty much slide in without an issue!
Well sorry for the long a$$ story, but this is what I had personally gone through so far. Not to mention getting yet another case, the Nillkin flip case. Not sure if I am going to keep it though. I may just sell it to another person here or ebay.

[REVIEW] PureGear - Slim Shell Case

I came across this case on Amazon while looking through the myriad of styles out there and came across the PureGear Slim Shell. I was looking for a slim design that had a bit of grip and didn't break the bank. The Spigen Neo case looked nice, but I bought a white phone and didn't want to cover it up with a black back. It also cost $20 more than this one did through Amazon. It's a hard shell case with medium grip rubber surrounding the case. The lip around the top is made from the same rubber. The lip is about 1/16" which is typical for slim cases. The cutouts are well placed and centered up. The buttons are a tad stiff, but they are hours old, so that should change with some use. The back was 3 small standoffs so the back isn't scratched up when set down. The phone fits in snug and it feels good in the hand and pocket. I don't have much experience with cases, but I am happy with this one and would recommend it for sure.
+1 for the review effort.

What's the best case for this phone?

I need to get my self a case but a good durable case any suggestions ? Give me names and pictures of cases ? Thanks

Personally for protection and looks I like the Spigen Slim Armor the best. It's not very bulky, but still offers good protection. For good reviews and pictures take a look at the posts around this section. There are plenty of great reviews.
Ballistic aspira. Not too thick, but great protection. Love the colors too

I'm really liking my UAG Navigator in white:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=41548103
Spigen Neo Hybrid, Dante Red looks pretty sweet. Gets a little distorted from a wirelesss charging pad, but otherwise very nice looking.
I personally use 3 cases, the official Samsung Protective Cover+, Spigen Neo Hybrid and UAG Navigator! All 3 are slim protective cases!
Otterbox commuter has protected my S4 from several drops ranging from 3-5 feet onto various surfaces including concrete! Couldn't recommend anything else.
Really love my Spigen Slim Armor Cases. They are the best looking case I have ever used. I will probably get an Otterbox Commuter or Defender for Outdoor activities. I have used them on other phones and really liked them.
it depends if you want protective case and don't care if the phone become bulky or want non bulky phone and good protection.for the first option i recommend otterbox commuter. for the second option i recommend uag .
I personally prefer the otterbox as well.

If you like not being able to plug in headphones/chargers with the case on, go for the Spigen Neo Hybrid.
If you want the same protection, an OEM look, and wider ports that allow for plugging in with the case on, go for the OEM Samsung S4 Bumper Case.
You can find both (by copying & pasting the names I wrote) on Amazon.
I would wholeheartedly recommend the UAG case. It's the first case I look for when I buy a new phone.
To me, it's the perfect case.

I'm using the otterbox the commuter series, and liking it. Not too bulky.
So my Seidio Convert case for the S3 fits the S4 mostly.
You will have to cut the volume controls a bit if you want to use the inner plastic shell but I just skipped on it.
The rubber shell and exoskeleton together are enough to keep the phone in the case - even if a bit of wiggle is there - and you can use the volume and power buttons, the IR blaster is exposed and works well.
The headphones jack doesn't line up, but the power and camera do - so it'll do for a few days until I get this in:

I used to go for otterbox cases, but after getting my first Seidio case I will never, ever use an otterbox again.
The seidio convert case is far and away superior to the defender case from otterbox - the convert case has an inner plastic shell that slides together, instead of clipping together, and then the rubber shell goes over with a second plastic exoskeleton that keeps the rubber in place.
Not only that, but where the defender is basically a brick-type shape, the convert case is contoured and feels nice in your hand with it's rounded edges and ribbed sides.
They are about the same size when all is said and done, so i'd rather hold a convert then a defender.
That waterproof case is going to be the best decision I ever made for this device, I am sure of it.

I hate to admit it but the new Otterbox Defender is actually pretty nice. It seems slimmer than previous models and feels good in my hands.
I also like the color options now available. I found replacement frames and rubber sleeves on Amazon for like $5 each so I can mix up the colors. I have the Samsung wireless charging back on it which fits in the case and charges fine. The raised edges don't bother me like they did in previous models where they felt like they impeded my typing. I have to say I'm impressed with overall improvements to the case. I tried the Convert but prefer this. On top of all that, this like Seidio are quality built cases so you know proximity and gps etc...all work fine.
I have probably about 15 cases from thin to bumpers to bulky but this actually works pretty well for me. I've gotta calm down on the case venture!!! The Love Mei large case is on a shelf after the issues I experienced with it.
I need to have a phone case garage sale.

What case do you use on Nexus 6P?

Hey guys. I just decided to try Nexus 6P. Looking for some great cases to protect it! But also I don't wanna spoil the original look of it since the design's so unique and beautiful!Just got two clear cases for my former Nexus 6 from AMZ and looks wonderful, yet the clear case get darken yellowed after few weeks using, so just share your N6P case experience here and enjoy!
Long response incoming:
I initially bought a official microfibre Adopted case (in carbon) from Google along with my N6P (aluminium). I paid full price for it, but I thought it was worth the premium for an official case and the design was cool and unique. Massively underwhelmed when I received it, because it's nothing more than a generic TPU case with a thin "sticker" of microfibre on the back, which I sensed would be prone to staining and, over time, peeling. The fit was also really tight and button presses weren't that responsive. I decided in the end that the Nexus branding wasn't worth the premium, so I returned it.
I then ordered a charcoal Diztronic case. I've had good experiences with Diztronic in the past, having used their case on my Galaxy Nexus as a daily driver. It was cheaper than the Spigen Rugged Armor and I appreciated the minimalist aesthetic, not being a fan of the faux carbon fibre pattern on the Spigen. The fit and finish was great, and the buttons were clicky and responsive. My only minor niggle was the cutout for the camera sensor wasn't completely accurate, as it cut off part of the circle surrounding the sensor (100% an aesthetic oversight with no impact on function).
I then bought a Speck Candyshell Grip (in white) during the Black Friday sale, when it was 50% off. Definitely my favourite case of the three I've tested so far. It provides the most protection (being a dual-layer silicone and polycarbonate hybrid), looks striking, and, as the name implies, provides a ton of grip.
I've had a Speck Candyshell on my iPod touch and over 4 years later, it's still kept my iPod in perfect condition. The case itself is scratched up and turned a bit off-white, but I haven't exactly been gentle with it (having taken it traveling and camping) so I'm confident in its protective capabilities.
I'll likely be rocking the Speck case as my daily driver for the time being, and I'll only swap back to the Diztronic when I want a more toned-down look and slimmer profile (maybe if I'm at a fancy event wearing slacks).
Finally, I also pre-ordered a white Crash Guard + Project S from Evolutive Labs when they offered 25% off the first 50 pre-orders. IMO this would be the solution to preserving the Nexus's original design and aesthetics, while still providing a lot of protection (if the demo videos are any indication). I have no idea what Project S is, though (hopefully some kind of transparent skin, though they said it wasn't going to be made of the same material as the Rhino Shield).
I have a tempered glass screen protector from intelliARMOR protecting the front (second generation/first revision, the model prior to production of the two distinct "case-friendly" and "edge to edge" versions). It's been fine with both the Diztronic and Speck cases, though I'm curious as to whether the edge-to-edge versions might also be compatible with the Speck and Crash Guard, as there's just 1 mm between the edges of the cases and screen protector, where I find dust and grease can get trapped in between.
If you're looking for clear cases, there're Spigen's Ultra Hybrid and Neo Hybrid EX cases. The Ultra Hybrid is a single-layer case with a clear polycarbonate back framed by TPU along the edges. I wouldn't recommend it personally because I've heard that clear TPU will stain over time (as likely what happened to your original case), and the visor is completely exposed and thus prone to scratches.
The Neo Hybrid EX consists of 2 pieces: a clear TPU shell and a coloured polycarbonate bumper (essentially, the reverse of the Ultra Hybrid). It looks to be the best clear case I've seen in terms of protection (as the visor is actually covered), but I don't know how the clear TPU will fare over time, whether it will also be prone to staining. I'd wait on reviews for this case before ordering, and for it to be listed on Spigen's Amazon store, which will likely be cheaper than buying it off their main website or eBay store.
To be honest it's the first device that I don't have a case for it although I have a tampered glass and a pouch. But I'm waiting for some skins from dbrand and a wooden skin from toastmade.
Tapatalked with my Nexus 6P
I got the carbon cloth backed Nexus 6P case originally and I really like the look and feel of it, but it's not the most protective. The only issue I've had with it is taking screenshots (the case presses buttons you don't mean to) and it wouldn't work with a tempered glass screen protector (it peels it up).
On the black Friday I got the Speck CandyShell in black/slate and I'm digging it. It's more protective and it makes the button presses a little harder, which I like. I would think it'd work with a glass screen protector as the bezels don't intrude onto the glass very much.
I use a Supcase Unicorn Beetle Hybrid as my standard case. I usually slide it in my pants or jacket pocket. I do wish there was a belt clip for the Beetle Hybrid, but to get a belt clip case combo you typically are into something much thicker and substantial that is, for me, unnecessary. When I'm wearing a suit, I use it bare and carry it in a Story Leather belt clip holster made for the iPhone 6s Plus. The phone has a Skinomi Tech Glass protector on it.
My experience mirrors LuckyDragan a little bit.
My first case was the microfiber case from the Google store. While it looked nice and the in hand feel was decent, I felt it cost way too much for what it was. I ended up returning it because when I pressed the edge of the case by the buttons it would change the volume. Not cool for a $35 case.
Next case is the reg. Adopted case. It's not bad. I really like the textured sides. It's also fairly narrow. Thing is, I paid $10 for it, at the reg. price of $20, I'm not sure if it's worth it. By the pics I've seen, I think it looks better than the Diztronic, especially the fingerprint cut out.
3rd case is the Spigen Rugged Armor. Except for the camera cut out (I don't like how it doesn't leave room for the blueish oval), I think it looks the best of all the cases I've tried so far. My nags are that It's all little wide and slippery. At $13.00?, it's a good buy.
4th case is the Speck Grip. My favorite so far. It's not as thin as the other cases but not bulky. The grip is awesome, no problem using the phone with one hand. At first glance, I didn't think it was the best looking case, but it's starting to grow on me. The protection and how it makes the phone so much easier to handle makes it a winner. @ $20 I paid during the Google store's sale, I think it's worth it. @ the reg. price of $40, idk.
If haven't yet, check out Pilz review thread, so much good info.
White Speck case as my daily driver.
I have tried the Diztronic one, while it does provide protection, did not like how loose the edges felt, definitely not as snug and stiff as my Diztronic Ultra that is on my GS6. It easily bent out edges for my taste, and thought of getting some debris that could scratch up the phone was bugging me somewhat. If you need a very minimalist, fingerprint resistant, and decent lip for screen protection, that is the case to have.
Also have the Supcase Unicorn Hybrid Ultra. great case, snug and firmer edges than the Diztronic one, but damn, is that case slippery. I have a habit of placing the phone on my car seat, and that thing just slides around like a hockey puck on ice when placed on its back. Placing it face down did help... still preferred it over the Diztronic.
But snagged the White Speck Candy Shell Grip case at 50% off, love it. Excellent grip, very tight and solid felling edges, does not slide when placed on a my car seat. Wished they offered a matt finish white version of this, since I am not a fan of shiny cases, but the black rubber lines offset it enough to be likable for me. Sporting the Orzly TGSP,with that case there is a minimal space between the glass and the edges of the case, nearly perfect sealed fit. Hoping the intelliglass ones are a bit more of an coverage so that it could have a near gapless glass to case seal, still waiting on receiving mine...
Currently have the Tudia case which is brill, but also got the Spigen rugged case coming.
Official microfiber case in carbon. No screenshot issues or button issues in general. I love the soft fabric feel. Feels more "welcoming" than the cold, hard plastic/TPU of other cases I've used. Regarding durability, I'm a little concerned, but only time will tell how the microfiber will hold up.
Smoked Ringke fusion is my case of choice, at least for now. I also have the Orzly flexicase and Spigen rugged armor. Don't really care for either of those.
Anyone want to trade a case for the spigen rugged armor? mint condition and hasn't been used other than trying it on once.

I'm also using this case and think it's a good balance of fitting, protection, minimal bulk, etc all for a low price. I bought it off Amazon for $11 but unfortunately it's been outta stock for the past month or so. I wished they had a clear case instead of smoke coloring though.
I use spigen rugged armor, it's a good case that offers high protection to your phone..
i intend to order the verus high pro shield case though, just want to wait for some time until they fully supply the updated case.. the first batches had a defect about the charging port..

The Spigen rugged arrived today and it is SOOOO much nicer than the Tudia one. Better fit and feels nicer and more secure.

I've had a few cases so far.
SR Tech - Typical TPU case. Decent protection. Cutouts were slightly off. Total fingerprint/oil magnet. Got real slippery after a week or so of use and required a wipe down. Did not interfere with my Pleson TGSP.
Spigen Rugged Armor - Soft touch finish felt really good in hand. Very good protection at the sacrifice of some added bulk. Cutouts were precise and buttons had a nice tactile feel. Soft touch got some smudges on it occasionally but not nearly as bad as the SR case. Did not interfere with my Pleson TGSP but it was really close.
Spigen Thin Fit - Very interesting finish on this case. Kinda felt like the back of the Nexus 6. Fingerprints weren't really a problem but oil/smudging was. Case snapped on snugly and provided good protection for the covered areas. Top and bottom of the phone were exposed. Did not interfere with my Pleson TGSP.
Nillkin Nature - This is my daily driver. Pretty much the same as the SR Tech, only about half the thickness. Cutouts are more precise and there is a cover for the Type C port, which I really like. This is literally the thinnest case I've ever used and it really helps make the already large 6P more manageable in the hand. I wish it came in a matte finish so oil/fingerprints weren't so much of an issue, but other than that I'm happy.
Adopted for now until bumpers start arriving and be reviewed.
Ringke smoke and Google Microfiber. Like both and switch weekely

I switch from the official google carbon case and spigen ultra hybrid. They are great cases but the buttons on both aren't the best. I also have speck case but I use it for when I go to the gym. Diztronic case is nice but phone feels loose inside and verus case.. Its whatever.

tough case recommendations?

One of my favorite things about my Sony Xperia Z3 over the last couple of years has been the Case-Mate Tough Case I've had on it. I drop my phone pretty regularly, and that thing holds up to whatever I throw at it (or, I guess, whatever I throw it at). In addition to being a nice protective dual-layer case, it's also really grippy with a nice texture - I've never had a phone that felt so secure in the hand.
I've been looking for a similar case for the Moto X Pure, but I can't seem to find one; most of the cases I've seen that have a decent protective frame around the edges take themselves out of the running for me with a smooth back (often for the sake of transparency, to show off the custom phone), and the one case I found with a nice texture was a Nillkin skin that doesn't protect the sides and has no lip to raise the screen off a desk.
Anyone have any recommendations for a good case that's durable and protects against drops, and also helps make this giant of a phone feel a little more secure in the hand? (I have been looking at the Incipio Dualpro but haven't gotten a chance to see one in person yet so have no idea what the texture is like.)
I actually like the otterbox defender as it has excellent grip. But it is bulky so it may not be on par with what you are looking for. I like the bulk though as it is perfect for my hand size and maintaining firm control of my phone. The silicone has a textured/ribbed back that is nice.

I have the Supcase Beetle -
http://www.amazon.com/SUPCASE-Unicorn-Premium-Protective-Motorola/dp/B0154AQ3QK/
Very good protection, frosted back so you can see the colour/design of your phone. Thick rubber around the sides for grip and protection. The two raised ridges on the back reduce the side to side rocking a bit, which is an issue on our curved backs. Not too expensive. I would recommend considering it.
I have the same problem. I bought the Diztronic Case as well as the Incipio octane.
The octane is surprisingly good looking. It has a frosted back but somehow.. it feels kinda grippy. I can't explain it. It's hard plastic.. but it is gripper than the naked rubber back. It's weird.
The octane is also grippier around the edges (softer TPU) than the diztronic. It's also a little thicker. (enough to be noticeable). BUT the buttons are hard to press (I think I might can fix that but I have yet to work up the nerve to take a razor to my $20 case). The biggest problem here is that the headphone cutout isn't big enough for my ATH-M50s or my AUX cord.... so... yeah. Another thing that could possibly be fixed once I figure out the best way to go about it.
Now, for the Diztronic: This is seriously the best built case I've ever seen for a phone. It fits perfectly. It barely adds any bulk to the phone. I can't speak for the MXP (haven't dropped it yet) but I have carried three phones in diztronic cases and nothing has happened to any of them. There's an attention to detail with Diztronic that you don't get with a lot of other cases. The button cutouts for this case are unlike any case I've ever seen. It's still easy to press the buttons and the buttons stick out from the case the same length that the actual buttons stick out from the phone. It feels like you're pressing the actual buttons. You'll have no problem fitting any headphone cord into this case. The ONLY thing I don't like about this case is that it actually does not add a lot of grip, but overall, its my favorite. I highly recommend it.
Edit: I don't have it but the Incipio dualpro is probably good. It'll add more bulk though.
I'm a fan of the SUPCASE Unicorn Beetle Pro with the holster clip and built-in screen protector. It has held up very well against abuse and saved my MXPE a number of times. Of course you don't need to use the holster, but it does help to protect the screen, especially in a gym bag or whatever. Here is the link: http://www.amazon.com/SUPCASE-Holster-Motorola-Protective-Protector/dp/B0153T7TSI
I have had mine in a Supcase unicorn beetle (with the frosted back) since september 30th, dropped numerous times, easy to put in pocket.
If I needed a holster I'd go with the Supcase heavy duty.
Supcase Unicorn Beetle is perfect
I like the SUPCASE beetle, but like there dustproof/"water resistant " version with interchangeable back plates better

I highly recommend the Case Mate Tough Frame bumper for the MXPE. Perfect fit. Ridged power button on the bumper.
Part 2 of 2
I definitely agree about with you about the Diztronic case. The buttons are actually easier to use with the case on than without it. As far as the grip goes, at first I noticed it being a little slippery. However, I have gotten used to it.

I'm a fan of the SUPCASE Unicorn Beetle Pro with the holster clip and built-in screen protector. It has held up very well against abuse and saved my MXPE a number of times. Of course you don't need to use the holster, but it does help to protect the screen, especially in a gym bag or whatever.
