Fake or real Otterbox? - Galaxy S 4 Accessories

Hi. I bought an otterbox defender from walmart.com, and I was hoping someone could help clear little doubt I have.
I would think a vendor like walmart could be trusted, but I heard that fake otterboxes have a seam; there is clearly a seam on
this case so I'm a little worried it may not be genuine.
Does this look right?:Is it supposed to look like this?
thanks for any help!!

Check this thread.

Thanks,
I see no difference between the boxes; but the stamp on the case looks deep and has the periods like the real one in the picture, and the upc number is the right one.
The back feels kind of slick though, maybe it's supposed to be like that?

I have the commuter (ordered from otterbox) and there is a seam just like that on the rubber part. I don't think walmart wouldn't sell fake ones.

Yea that's how they really look lol I can understand why you'd think it's fake but it's real.

Honestly, the best way to tell is the plastic screen protector on the case. If it feels flimsy, its fake. If it feels sturdy enough, its legit

Walmart is as legit as it gets. They don't sell fake **** paper... So why would they skip on Otterboxes? Lol I bought mine from there and it's been legit until I got my life proof.

They could sell fakes because someone bought a real one then returned a fake

Neoprene Pouch/Sleeve for G2X?

Hey guys, figured id ask here since XDA rocks and im having no luck looking for it thru Google.....basically im looking for a Neoprene Pouch like the one given with the Tmobile G1, and the Nexus One but one that actually fits the G2X! If u guys know of one, please let me know, if not, thanks for taking the time to read this post! Thanks!
I'm looking for one myself since I shelved the Nexus One for now. Not digging any case or skinz on the market. The pouch work good since it just slides in your pocket and prevent any dust/lint from entering the phone.

That looks like the Nexus One pouch.
I do use my Nexus One pouch with my G2X. It stretches it just a little bit but not worryingly so.

Do us a solid, and let us know how it fits!
Please!
I ordered the one from eBay as well.
It fits ... ok. Not as tight as I'd like it but I'd not call it loose either. Cheaply constructed though. I've had it about two weeks now and the stitching is already coming undone. I'd like to find a higher quality neoprene sleeve.
Would you be willing to post a few pictures?
Thanks!
i never received any pouch with my g1? i'm still using the same exact pouch i got with my sidekick 2 six years ago
some more pics would be great!
Here is a pic, it fits very snug...I was worried about it not fitting but that's not the case! My only gripe is the material is not near the same as the nexus ones/g1 but it does the trick and is sexy!
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA Premium App
Sorry, I don't have another camera handy to take pics w/the phone in. This at least should give you an idea of the stitching.
Thanks for the pictures!
So...
All in all... Is it worth 3 bucks... ha?
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda premium
I've had the same one for months. Definitely worth it.
Heh, yeah, it's worth $3. Particularly since there really isn't anything else available.

Looks like it's just a skin. I doubt it would actually act as a bumper and protect your phone if dropped though.

This is the same guy who was earlier offering 5000 n4 like bumpers (which he'd be receiving soon) with a single one costing 50$. I guess he finally got it and it turned out not to be aluminum as he thought.
I strongly suspect he got it from china (alibai etc) where they were showing n4 aluminium bumpers for a few bucks for bulk orders, if I remember correctly.

I believe the question should be "How amazing COULD that be?" I've seen shoddy leather work and I've seen amazing leather work.
Ordered my Nexus 4 on the 13th. Still waiting.
Yes I would like to see implemented leather into a case/bumper like those stylish iPhone cases. Well if he does send you photos post them here.

Ooh yeah! lol.... :silly:
I Just received my: Exact(TM) Armor Case for Google Nexus 4 Smart Phone Black (Amazon.com). It fits great with openings for speaker and both microphones. I already have a collection of tpu cases and Google's Bumper. At just a little under $8 shipped it can't be beat!
Received this case as well. I paid $4 and amazon prime upgraded me to one day shipping to avoid the snowstorm. I LOVE this case! Better than me Otterbox commuter case and also better than the ballistic I used to use. For the price this is a no brainer. Also I have not found this case slippery. The grips on the back catch my fingers. This will be my daily.

I just got mine on Friday all I can say is that this is the best 4 bucks I've spent. The case is firm the only problem is that it tries to peel off my screen protector on the side where the proximity sensor is but other than that, this case is very close to what ballistic will be offering

Damnit spigen stahp
i'm not that impressed, especially based on what they are charging and i own 3 spigen cases for my s4... then again, i'm also not happy with their marketing tactics when it comes to the neo hybrid frames.
This really resembles the UAG case I got from amazon for my s3. Was going to go with UAG again but this has a front cover too so may try this first.

Well I understand that, but honestly I get the feeling they don't have the inventory for that yet. Considering I still had to wait a couple extra days for a black one, it just makes more business sense for them to sell the full units only until they have an excess of frames. Now, in 6 months if they're still selling the case only, then that would be not cool.

it's deceptive marketing with the neo frames. i know if the FTC was made aware Spigen would have two choices: a) offer the frames b) stop marketing the product as customization.

dont know about that.
I wonder if they will only make this one on white,because many people may want some other colors.so maybe they could make at least the same colours they did on slim armor normal cases.
Cool case. I may buy one to use at work (I'm in the construction business). However, using it when I'm not at work - no. It's just too bulky in my opinion.
Clever idea but definitely seems that it would be too bulky for every day use
