Anyone know where I can find a lifeproof style case like water proof and dirt and sand proof?

you should check out your local service provider store, they sometimes have construction one size fits all phone cases. Ask for one of the double cases ( a soft case within a hard case) those are easy to put on and off and usually work pretty well.

Not a fan. The silicone is flimsy and our doesn't really cover the lip of the phone that well. Horrible case imo

It's a minimal dual layer, I have one for my gs3, as well as an otterbox. The otterbox has more protection but you gain mass and heft. I like the incipio because it is slim but still offers good protection
I actually had this one on my phone and was paying for it in the store but I scrubbed the purchase before I could even check out. I think it looks really nice and will probably give good drop protection, but the flimsy silicone would drive me crazy. When you push the side buttons the silicone would buckle. The silicone in the top and bottom didn't fit snugly. JMO. Like I said I looked the way it looked. It was the brushed aluminum dual pro shine with black silicone. Just not snug enough of a fit for me.

I have had this case on my S4 since I got the phone thru verizon, about 10 days . Black on black. I wanted a slim case with decent drop protection. This was a good compromise. The soft inner core does over lap on to the front of the screen a bit, wich is good as I can lay the phone face down without damaging the screen. The soft rubber inner core does attract lint where it is exposed, but I expected that.
so far I am happy with the case. But, I have not dropped it .....yet...:laugh:

Any thin rugged cases that have the otter protection. .im sure its a far fetched chance, but that would be cool if a company could make a thin case that has the material to be durable as otterbox defender. ..
I like the cases that have front and back covers that keep the screen inset some for ground impact clearance.

No such thing.
The uag looks pretty thin for a rugged case. Just about to order one

Ya ....looks neat but nah ill pass on that one..
To me it looks like it would keep marks of the edges/bezel if slightly bumped ot dropped but I bet a waist height drop to concrete.... the impact would flow right thru it and crack or worse shatter a screen
I like the cases that over lap the top notification area and home key, and are raised above screen.... essentially like otter defenders do...
I Guess im more into the rugged cases .
I wanna be able to toss my cell on a coffee table or /car dash or drop it from 4 feet " if an accident like that happened as the unfortunate ones that by skinny cases do .....and not have to get super pissed or raise my blood pressure thinking for them two seconds what damage did I do

The uag case has a drop test video you can watch. You'd be surprised!

Yep that's what sold me on the UAG. Hope I don't end up testing it firsthand.
I think your asking for or expecting the impossible my friend....or hoping someone can defy the laws of physics.
There is a reason the otterboxes are so thick, dont you think they would make them thinner if they could?

You may want to look at the Cygnett WorkMate Evolution case, which is slightly slimmer than Otterbox cases.

Wasnt expexting anything thats why I said in op its probably a far fetched idea I knew this , but was worth a shot to ask, im not a noob to phones or cases I have a drawer full, It just pisses me off lol these company's cant think like some of us.. and build a case like we think they should... if anyone can otterbox can.
He'll id pay 100 if a case was thin as the s4 and had the otter protection. . Maybe aome space age carbon or kevlar material. ..
Think if the iPhone beetle shell case that's what kind of design im getting at... I despise open face cases what's the use on protecting a bezel or side when the screen counts for everything ..

Hi Guys,
Do you think thr bumper case for Nexus 4 is good compare to full back case ?
I am currently using Capdase Touch case as shown on the link
http://www.capdase.com/en/product5.php?cid=1&bid=23&mid=3737&pid=34328
However i really love the looks og nexus 4 and dont want to cover the beauty but i also want to protect the device.
To the nexus 4 users who have this dumper case, pls give your comment.
Thanks.

as far as i know a case weakens the signal.
Bumper + dbrand skin ftw :good:
Well a bumper will pretty much just protect the screen and back from laying flat on the ground and a full back case will protect from falls. If you want a little more protection I recommend the full back case

Ringke fusion sounds like the way to go for you. I have both. I am currently on the bumper and dbrand custom skin setup.
I also have the ringke fusion and its good.

This is false.
what is the lightest case for our n4? i have a nillkin frosted case but it added a significant weight to it. so significant that i strained my pinky that supports the phone when i hold it with one hand. i would go naked but i place my phone on the table often so i want to protect it atleast from scratches at the back glass. thanks

I can say Poetic Borderline.
Rearth Slim or Hybrid.
Definitely Rearth Slim...

This works great. However, in my case it eventually started to peel just enough to about me. So I put my bunker back on also so there's no way to peel at the edges.

as of right now I'm using the ringke fusion case but I'm not liking the bulky size, how easily broken is the back when it comes to bumper plus the skin for antiscratch or suck it up and use the case?
also can anyone recommend thinner case for the n4?

If you want true see through case you only have the rinkle and the bumper
If your not looking for true see through look for some transparent tpu cases out this plastic ones

I have the black leather d band skin and a poetic black bumper. Looks great. Prevents scratches. I rarely drop my phone, and when I have I felt the bumper defiantly helped from scuffing up the sides. I hate cases. Hopefully the n5 will not be do fragile, so in can go naked like I normally do.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk 2
all though the bumper will add width to the device.. if you have small hands it might be an issue, like it did for me lol. Ive been wanting to try the poetic bumper but cant seem to find on amazon nor ebay, the color i want that is.
Also, the back is not drop protected with the dbrand skin, even tho you wont see it if its cracked either. So its a win win
