So received the case a day early!!!
It maybe just my instance, but it would appear that the one I received appears to be completely new? The packaging looks totally original (IE not a brown box, but the normal retail plastic box) and not resealed. The case itself looks totally fine to me without any blemishes or even signs of use.
I don't know why this is a "refurb" (probably a return?) but at least for me well worth the price.
----------------------------------------
Update to this update... I found the blemish... The finish on the bumper is not 100% correct. While most of the bumper is glossy, one part is like the laminate (if that is what it is) wasn't applied. Still didn't notice until I tilted it at an angle so it is hard to notice. So this isn't a simple return as I thought but is clearly a second. I still think it is worth the price.

Damn, I think they're OOS on the Neo Hybrid cases...was really looking forward to getting one!

I just got mine today and it seems to have no flaws, I'll let you guys now if I come across any

I got mine in the mail today and it seems to be in great condition! I did a inspection thoroughly and there seems to be only one small hairline scratch but it's really not noticeable but it all depends. I might just got lucky so all in all, this is a excellent deal!

Trident Aegis Case for $13.49!

I received an E-Mail from Amazon this morning saying that the Trident Aegis Case for the T-Mobile G2x was only $13.49! This is a STEAL! I purchased mine more than a month ago for about $25... $29 shipped.
Here is the link - http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0058OIMDU/ref=pe_153350_20925280_pe_vfe_dt2
It will be about $20 shipped.
Yeah, I scooped mine up at this price. Everything came to 19.98 shipped. Couldn't be happier. I ordered last Friday and it arrived today. Great case!

Looks like a nice, very protective case.
Got mine 2 days ago from Amazon. I'm impressed with the quality. I would even dare to say its better than the Otterbox. It does add some bulk to the phone. One thing I do like is the silicon doesn't attract dirt and lint as much compared to other gel type case.

I have a red Trident case on my G2x. It's awesome. It's survived several drops from me. I don't keep my phone in my pocket so I can't comment on how it might add to the thickness.
Just ordered mine from amazon. I bought the red one.
Sent from my LG-P999 using Tapatalk
Am I the only one using this case to have the top of the hard plastic part of the case cracking off (around the lock hardkey, HDMI input, etc)? I haven't seriously dropped this phone in its case yet but I noticed a crack the other day that is sure to break off the top of the hard shell.
That and the hard shell was never flush with gel jacket where the hardshell "clips" along the sides of the device.
Oh yea, and the USB cover just came off today from typical usage.
Let me emphasize that I am VERY careful with my electronics. These realizations are disappointing for aa case that at the time of purchase cost me $35 but no matter, just wondering atm if I'm the only one with these issues? All *****ing on my part aside.

I agree, it looks kind of cheap looking for $13 price tag. I hope Google gets off its ass and start making these Bumpers available. They also need to start contacting companies to get some cases on the market. If they are going to keep running out of Bumpers and we have very limited options, they BETTER expect lots of cracked Nexus 4's coming back to their replacement warehouse. There is no reason for a company like this to have such a poor E-Commerce practice. It's absolutely ridiculous.

+$3.98 shipping for me... booooooo
I haven't gotten the clear case I ordered yet from them, but I can vouch for their customer service.
I preordered the clear case and received a package from them late last week. It had an S case in it.
The clear cases have taken a little longer to manufacture, so they sent me a free S case to make sure my phone is protected until the clear case is in stock.
Note: I ordered the clear case, not the smoked clear. Looks like they took the clear option off of Amazon temporarily.
Yea I ordered it Friday I think its shipping today I'll post some pics when I get it ...didn't notice the back saying Kay's case till after Lol :/

I have their S- line type case on my nexus 4 right now, I know it isn't the same case, but very similar. TBO it looks like the same one that is selling on Ebay from China for less.
I considered buying one off Ebay, but glad I didn't because they sent me a black case when I ordered a clear one. I messaged them and they are sending me the clear one I ordered free of charge. I know it is rare to have an issue like I did, but it is nice to know they have good customer
service.
Here's a link to the one I ordered:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00A72UR7M/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00
what a crock.
i received my kay case:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B009ZNBI2M/ref=oh_details_o05_s00_i00
and it was identical to iblason:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B009Y0ZZD4/ref=oh_details_o04_s00_i00
I mean identical in every way. Even the insert they gave. Both are unbranded black cases.
Do not buy this case thinking it might be an alternative to the iblason.
IDENTICAL
I am looking for a clear shield just for the back. Can anyone suggest anything?

i bought one of these in black. not bad. i dont really like the way the official bumper fits on the phone so this will do until a nicer tpu one comes out.
Got mine yesterday. I like it but it peels up the corners of my Xtremeguard protector. I'm gonna try a thinner protector with it.

I have this case myself and bought it for $10 used. The sides by the power and volume buttons do tend to "warp" a bit, but maybe an 8th of an inch. Very slim and durable case that will take a beating. I highly recommend it, my wife wants one lol.

Its a one piece. I usually put the top in and push the bottom down until its fully seated. Its snug at first, but it loosens up just enough eventually.

I stopped using it and put my "old reliable" (a Diztronic TPU) back on. I can't get over how it honestly feels like you're about to snap your phone in half when putting it in or taking it out of the case.
The case is pretty fantastic. Scary if you need to take the phone out for a battery pull. Feels like I'm going to bend my phone and break it getting this thing off lol. I scored this and a Moshi screen protector for $5 too. BEST SCREEN PROTECTOR EVER. Anti-glare, anti-fingerprint, I'd pay full price for another one.

Just put a Moshi on my Rocket tonight. Quick, easy install. Considering how thick it is, I'm not sure that I should be using tight-fitting TPUs anymore (very concerned they'll damage the edges), but since I've got a new non-TPU case on the way and have plenty of the looser-fitting mesh hybrids lying around, I think I'm set. My wife wants one for her Rocket, too. First screen protector I've tried that she's ever gone, "Whoa, I want one of those."

Spigen Neo Hybrid Case cracks at the usb

I have the say it is the best looking case out for the GS4 but the main issue is the case will crack at the usb area. Top first then bottom. The area is thin. If they reinforce it some how this would last longer then 2 months. I have never dropped my phone and once on my phone it never came off until it now. Am I the only one?
Nope. You're not the only one with quality issues on your NeoHybrid.
Mine had paint chips which appeared from nowhere.
Seems like there are some serious durability issues with the NeoHybrid case.

Yeah, my neo hybrid for the SGS2 last a long long time too. Not sure why for the SGS4 it crapped out on my so fast.
I hope people know about the short comings of the case even if it looks like one of the best cases. I wish they reinforced the area or used the same materials like the GSII case!
I had the same issue. I contacted them thru email and they were pretty fast to respond. They ask me to send a pic of the damage then they sent me a new one and it only took 3 days to get here. Looks like they're aware of the issues because the new one i received is a bit different, the usb insert part is actually a bit thicker and less likely to bend and breaks.

I made a mistake saying is a bit thicker.. It looks the same but the new one with a lip seems sturdy when i try bending it.

Otterbox preserver or lifeproof.

I am in the market for a waterproof case. I love having multiple cases and this is one i dont have. I have been looking at both the lifeproof nuud and otterbox preserver. They both look like really nice cases but I'm worried a bit about sound quality. I really like the fact the lifeproof doesn't have a built in screen protector but read on amazon, like I'm worried about, affects sound quality. I was trying to find the OB on amazon but the only one listed is at 339$ and doesn't have any reviews.
My question is what are your experiences with either case. Thanks for the feedback guys.
Hit thanks if I helped you out. Doing a little bit of reading goes a long way. Sent via tapatalk.
Ordered this thing with some trepidation when it first came out.
Waterproof YES
Great protection YES.
Touch functions work well YES.
Sound out - listen to music or calls Yes and quality is okay.
Sound in - speaking on calls - nearly inaudible to person on the other end!
If you use your phone as, well, a phone you MUST use some bluetooth headset/mic or it's a no go.
I was really hoping that this wouldn't be the case, but figured it would be - as virtually all 'waterproof' cases for any device I have just cannot transmit VOICE sound 'IN'.
But hey it is waterproof and provides superp protection. I'll just have to remember to put the case on before I need it.
Thanks for the feedback. Yeah I was looking at that one as well like I said. I've always had good luck with otterbox. The only thing I don't like about in comparison to the lifeproof is the LP is 6.6ft @ 1hr while the OB is only half an hour and then OB has a built in screen protector. I really hate built in screen protectors.
Hit thanks if I helped you out. Doing a little bit of reading goes a long way. Sent via tapatalk.
I've got a lifeproof nuud and I have no complaints. The first one I bought, I had the sound issues that other people on this forum has had. I replaced it and the call quality was damn near crystal clear. I recently had to get a warranty replacement because my USB port cover broke off, and the new one I have now works perfectly also. Another thing that really stands out is their customer service. I called to see where I could buy additional screen protectors and they sent me 3 for free. This last time I called for a replacement, they sent me a brand new case in the box with really no questions asked. I haven't worked up the balls to put my phone underwater yet because I had a bad experience with a casio g'rock when I tried that. But I'm sure it'll come. I recommend giving the lifeproof nuud case a shot, I doubt you'll be let down. I know I wasnt.
Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk
As much as I like cases I think I'll buy both. I just bought the nuud on amazon for 50 and next day Aired it for like an extra 4 bucks. Stoked about it arriving and once more otters pop up on amazon I'm going to buy one of those as well.
Hit thanks if I helped you out. Doing a little bit of reading goes a long way. Sent via tapatalk.
I've had both. I started with Lifeproof and went through two Frē cases because of the bad audio quality. I then went with the Preserver. I've been through two of those as well. It's an awesome case, but the mesh covers on the speakers tear off within a few days. My second one only lasted a day in tact before getting ripped off just by pulling it out of my pocket. I took the first one back and got a refund from Walmart, and still have the replacement from Ottetbox. I just super glued the mesh back on.
I gave the Lifeproof another shot with the Nüüd case and couldn't be happer. Call quality is great, and no screen protector to get those Newton rings or "rainbows" between the glass and screen protector.
If you go with the Nüüd but want to buy in store, pick it up at Best Buy. They honored Amazons price of $52.99.
Hell I started out paying $100 from Verizon with the water protection plan. After getting screwed around about wanting to return the case because it was defective, I ended up only paying $60 for it. $50 is a he'll of a deal

The Incipio doesn't close properly with the battery cover of the phone on. If you take it off, it closes, but the screen cover doesn't contact the screen properly and loses touch sensitivity. Also, the tempered glass protector has the worst rainbowing effect imo.

So far the Lifeproof gets my vote as the best for me. I absolutely love the overall design of the Otterbox, but the speakers are a big design issue. If they come up with a fix, it'll be a hit. Out of all of them I've tried, I felt the most protected with that one. Speakers and button response though, hats off to LP.

I agree. I love my obex case. Very secure and keeps your device safe. Very waterproof, I literally run my phone under water to clean it. Screen very responsive. Only issue is the capacitive buttons take a getting used to. Require a bit more finger coverage.
About the nuud, I've read countless reviews about people saying it leaks. Totally not cool. Lol. I really suggest the obex case. Had it about a month with no major complaints.

I have the white / grey cause I don't like dark colors on my phone as they absorb sun light and heat up your device. But they are designed very nicely. Only downside is the white rubber seems to absorb the dye from my jeans xD prolly can clean that up with bleach tho.

Lifeproof build quality for the s4 cases are crap. If I could do it over again I'd probably get that liquipel thing done to my phone and get a cheap case and still come out on top.
