Case flaws!

Why can't a company just make a good case?! The Bodyglove NOVA came close, but its lip was tiny. The Diztronic TPU are close, but lacked durability. Why can't anybody make a case that has a nice body, a decent lip, and good buttons? There are so many close ones, but no really good ones! They all have a major flaw. Why can't there be a case without any major flaws?

I saw someone with an extremely thin iPhone 5 case, so thin that it's more like a skin than a case. I searched for thinnest iPhone 5 case on Google and holy ****, you can get cases that are as thin as 0.3 mm for the iPhone 5. I wish you can get slim cases like that for the Nexus 4 too. Ringke slim comes close at 0.8mm, but it's not quite there yet.

My s4 has a just like glass screen protector on it. The new Just Like Glass screen protectors come with 2 protectors. They are very smooth.

First.... PM sent, I would be happy to test, thanks.

PM sent as well. In regards to colors. I love green.

This is fairly what the case will look like. Styling will be similar.

PM'ed. I am not in love with my ifrogz at all.
i will buy if it is a better case.

Cases look awesome, PM sent.
Cheers

If its anything like Note 2 cases I recently received and reviewed HERE, then count me in too! Those were thin, with a decent drop protection, and high quality material. Plus, I really like the idea of mix and match of different PC and TPU colors to keep it fresh.

pm sent! excited to test and review!
Personally I would like to see smoke/black colors and I'm a sucker for carbon fiber and black leathers

I also pmd.

I would think that android green and Ferrari red would look great. The slim armour red is slightly off in shade imho.
Sent from my GT-I9505 using xda premium

Any chance of it coming in white?

I don't know about you all but I'd love a really white (ie no black screen with a white backplate) n5. So far the leaks make the phone look really ugly and cheap. I know we buy the nexus for its guts and software... Not its looks but it may look so bad in pictures because of the matte soft touch black paint. If you examine the pictures closer it has a very clean design.
To get to the point, this phone would look really elegant I think in white. Not since my original g1 have I had an all white phone, AMD certainly not a white nexus. I know beggars can't be choosers, but if Google ever wanted the nexus line to be a commercial success instead of just a Dev line for their new software, options like this would be awesome.
Given that zero of these leaks have revealed anything other than a black phone, I'm SOL.

Well white would be nice however all the leaks show a matte back and we all know matte white doesn't work(HTC One X)

Not that this means anything, but some of the case makers have renders of it in white. Regardless, i think google likes the oreo look of "white" devices, so i dont think they'll make a white bezeled phone anytime soon.

may be released with white as well...

Here's my quick (And bad) photoshop of how the Nexus 5 should really look like in white based on the leaked box's images.

I think this is fake
Even i photoshopped the nexus 5 black picture and got something similar to this.
This is just an inverted pic of original nexus 5 pic and it took less than a minute to do it..

Oh yah lol good eye the white nexus on the box has a black camera lens too.

Yeah the image looks legit as it follows other nexus packaging and the N5 displayed on it as a black front face just like the white version of the N4

Stainless steel strap

What do you guys think of this strap? Thoughts ect.
http://www.strappedfortime.com/shop/item.aspx/solid-link-stainless-steel-pilot-watch-band-strap/262/
I think it would be great as it is the thickest at 4.5mm and heaviest at 120 grams 22mm stainless steel watch band I could find. I like heavy watches also it is the Most expensive one I could find as well, $100 with shipping but worth it if I can put it on the gear 3 and 4 ect.
Was going to go with a 2 tone gold/silver strap but most are polished and figured the mirror like shine would not go to well with the brushed metal look of the gear 2.

I would prefer such one.

What do you guys think of this one over the first one, Which one do you like better? Opinions are very helpful because I'm torn between the 2 on what I should buy. Thanks

Sent from my SM-N900W8 using Tapatalk

I like the first one better just because it looks more massive and manly.

Check which one is massive and which one cannot take your hairs out of the skin. Some of them do painfully.

I just got this today what do u think guys?

Hi guys. What do u think would be a good strap colour for the gold Brown gear 2. Brown or black or silver? Metal or leather strap?

I got a stainless steel strap as well. I fooled so many on facebook that this was a real Rolex.

Pretty sure it's this one: http://gearfaces.com/blacksilvrole/

been looking for one of these, kinda out of my price range though :l

I bought this. But I don't like it. To thin. I have a breitling and omega with a nice strap it I was reluctant to fit that. So after some searching I found this [cheap]. I chose silver When it arrives il upload pics

Metal Strap for Gear 2
I think the black metal strap looks good on Gear 2 Neo while the white works well with Gear 2, a leather strap is also good with Gear 2 Neo but I prefer the metal one looks classy

Which one I need to buy 20mm or 22mm or 24mm ?

New Blue HTC ONE M8 picture.

Just saw this and snapped a quick screen shot. Looks very nice. May have to get one even though I already have an M8! Originally posted on Phonedog.

Sent from my HTC6525LVW using Tapatalk

I've never been one to have a vibrant colored phone either. I normally always go with the gray/silver look. That's also why I went with the 5S instead of the 5C at my last upgrade. Looks pretty, though, if you're into it.

Doesn't interest me much. I like neutral color phones. They work best with cases and the new color scheme of android IMO. I do at times wish I picked the gold model, it looks excellent in an all black case like mine. But hey, silver works fine and looks good
Sent from my HTC6525LVW using Tapatalk

This would go great with my ice blue Game Boy Pocket from many years ago.
But I too prefer neutral colors on my phones.
Edit: on second thought, the new M8 looks a bit more Aqua than blue. Not sure about that song and dance.

Looks a little bright, the blue M7 that was a Best Buy exclusive was the perfect shade of blue. It kinda looks like the glow in the dark slickwrap.

I can see myself getting tired of that color very soon if I got it.. Too loud imo

I think in person it will look really nice!
Sent from my HTC6525LVW using Tapatalk

Looks nice. But I think, I will not let myself use a phone with that color for a long time. Am very much satisfied with my Gunmetal Gray color.

Wish mine was that color as I really liked my m7 that color. Maybe I can give my wife this one when the blue ones out(if I can s-off or course) nice find
