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?
sent via xda premium with nexus 7 while waiting for my shiny new Nexus 4!

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 am looking for a wallet case

What website sells wallet cases for the One S that accepts paypal? I would like but all seem to be for the One X.
Or if there's a case like the BookBook case for the iPhone but for the One S that would be awesome.

Cheers.

There's a selection on UK eBay, you might find something to suit you threr. http://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?_trksid=p3984.m570.l1313&_nkw=htc+one+s+wallet&_sacat=0&_from=R40

i ordered this one a couple weeks ago http://www.ebay.ca/itm/310489946624?ssPageName=STRK:null:IT it hasnt arrived yet so i cant comment on its quality but im not expecting much. it would be nice if a company made a high quality wallet type case with real leather. id much rather pay $40+ on a nice wallet that holds my phone then a ugly $6 one that falls apart. the fact that phones are getting so slim, and alot of people are moving onto front pocket wallets make this a hole in the market...
i ordered it mainly to cut down on stuff i need to carry when snowboarding, or going to a club. i hate bulky wallets!

Thanks for that link!

SGP Slim Armor View

I just happen to be on their site and saw this case, looks pretty slick! But the price is kinda steep. I might wait till it drops also if they get it in black.

Wow that looks really nice. I agree though the price is pretty steep although the OEM S View battery door cover is quite expensive as well.

Haha yeah, I thought somebody would get mixed up, I should have edited it. I'm just surprised because shipping is usually expensive were I live no matter the weight of the item.

Same thing. I ordered mine with 1-3 days shipping. Estimated delivery time is between Tuesday and Thursday. I usually get stuff from SGP quick so I'm thinking I'll get it Monday or Tuesday

Really cool looking. I've never tried a flip cover. I know no one has used this particular one yet, but how are these flip type cases to use? Is it odd to use the phone with the cover open?

quite a descent one and definitely would love to have this .. just going to check out its specs and prices through different online stores to see where is the availability of the same under reasonable cost to pay.. thanks to share..

will it be available in any other colors ??
this is a really good case
Also can any one suggest if a bigger battery can be accommodated in this case ???

You can fold the flip cover to the back of the phone. You don't need to necessary leave it hanging when using the phone.
I'll be getting the white one next week and got the cheap expedited shipping like some people did here. Looking forward to getting this case. Seems to have everything that I wanted.

Incipio DualPro Shine case

Saw this pop up and bought one. Had the same brand/model case for my Xperia Z Ultra and it was very nice and great quality. It was the case I ended up using until I sold the phone.
I think I paid around 20 for the xperia version on Amazon... This was a little more but I wanted a case to be here in time for when I get the phone Friday. Samsung is terrible with releasing accessories on time. Who knows when the wallet will be available in the US without waiting for long shipping times from Korea.

Got mine off of eBay

ya I got the light gray as well not a big fan of the color but really hated the cheap look and feel of the case mate that att had and despise with a passion the flip wallet. So far I really like the case and doesnt impede on the edge use, fingerprint scanner, or heart rate monitor on the back. I am taking my truck in for minor body work and was going to see if they could spray the case same color as my truck when they paint it.

Not sure if any of you care but im a holster guy and just prefer not to put my phone in my pocket unless absolutely necessary. What i found out today is the the Otterbox Defender holster for the Galaxy Note 2 fits like they were made for each other with this case.

Great find. I love holsters too

It just so happened that i still had a Note 2 Otterbox in my closet. You know how you buy a phone and buy the ridiculous over priced case and when the next big thing comes out you buy it and your stuck with that case? Well i have owned every note except for the one to include the Note 4 which my wife got when i got the edge today. I just trying out all my old holsters to see if one would fit and lucky me. I cant imagine that they are even that expensive if you can come accross one on ebay or what have you.

I miss my holster but you know what? I tried out My Seidio Surface Holster from my Note 3 last night and it fits the naked edge perfectly. It is not the spring clip holster model its is the SURFACE case holster model. You have to place the phone upside down because of the power button but it is secure. Seidio has the best cases out there. My note 3 when skidding across the parking lot 60 feet! Not a ding on the case or phone.

Is it possible to get a ccouple of pics? I had my wife snap a couple of mine and send them to me via text. I know some people may only have one phone.

I know I know, it's wild, but stay with me here.
What if, they have another one. *gasp*

I can take use them now with a dbrand skin on. At least I can peel a case off real fast and throw it back on when done. I tried rocking it bare and my back got all scratched up somehow.

That's a generic Amazon response that means other Amazon members didn't answer the question. Probably because the case isn't shipped yet. If you didn't contact the seller directly, then you probably won't get a response. I've had good luck with other sellers going directly to their seller page/profile and clicking the contact seller option (I don't recall exactly where that is without going through the steps).
However, I picked up a silicone bumper for just over $1 on eBay. It's a universal bumper, so not meant for any particular phone. It covers the earpiece too. Can't see notification LED, but the only thing it affects relating to the earpiece is it's a tad quieter. Call quality is not impacted, just turn the volume up one or 2 more steps than usual. Of course, this case is a different material and may play with the acoustics a little differently, but I doubt it'll mean you can't hear callers. If you have concerns, wait for others to buy it and review it.

Relax. I emailed Tudia last week about the case and they verified that the images on Amazon were old and they they would remove and replace them asap. They further verified that the real case does not cover the ear speaker at the top. It's still coming. Here is their reply to my email.
"Thank you for contacting us with your concerns. I have consulted with our manufacturing team and determined that the images are in fact wrong. Rest assured, the case's design will have cut-outs for earpiece speakers. I have brought the issue to the attention of marketing team and we will be sure to update the images right away.
Again, I certainly do apologize for any confusion or concern caused. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any further questions regarding our products."

The case is back up on Amazon. Says it will be released next Friday the 20th.

I bought mine on ebay for $10 from the same supplier and it shipped from MN USPS and i got in 2 days. Thats odd that they are shipping from overseas. must have sold out? but i didnt preorder, i ordered Monday night
