I like the look of it. Going to give it a shot. Thanks!
Great case, love it on my phone. And will absolutely take a month I learned first hand,I wouldn't bother ordering and just wait for local options once they arrive.

Usually when I order from China, it takes around 2 weeks for me to get in the mail. I wish manufactures would have made them earlier since all the specs were released...I guess I'll just use some kind of pouch to carry it around till I get something.
That case would cover up the awesome back design No bueno

Cant keep living in fear man! Be a little careful about your phone, enjoy its beauty. Accidents might/ might not happen. Thats me! Livin mah life on the edge
Or maybe wait for some bumpers
Yep, don't want to cover up this awesome looking device!
rather wait for a better one..
Been case and screen protector free on my GNex for almost a year, not a scratch or ding on it.
Next week when my daughter takes it though it will be in a Kraken case
I would pick one up, but I don't want to cover up that sexy back of the nexus 4
I'm probably going to put a full body screen protector and not put on a case though that one looks nice. Just got be extra careful. What would be really cool is if they made a Qi inductive case, that charges your phone, that way you never need to charge your phone.

The Nexus 4 has QI charger built into it. I believe it has a range of 40mm... So unless your case is made of metal you will be okay.

These "S" design back cases are some of the ugliest cases I've seen. Kinda like those clear "Altezza" vehicle tail lights from the early 2000s.

I have to agree. They look really tacky.
pretty cheap
For me, I would thank the OP for this. for 4 bucks, I would buy a 'protection' while taking my time to wait for the perfect case...

They aren't beautiful but for the price, consistent design, thinness, and especially the grip edges, there's few competition from getting the most for your dollar perspective.

Does anybody know of any case manufacturer that makes something like this? The only one I ever found for the iPhone was the Griffin Reveal, which had a very weak plastic back. If not, I'd probably just get the bumper case.
Thanks.

Like that? It's not available yet unfortunately, but I've put in a preorder.

iPhone 5 users have been saying that it scratched their device.
Thanks! I will keep that in mind, if the bumper case doesn't come back in stock by then.
I believe that only scratched the back of iphone5 due to the nature of the back of iphone5. Scratches really easy in general. SGP Linear line of cases said they will make it for Nexus 4 if there is interest. Post it on their facebook.

I feel like that is the nature of glass in general? When small particles get trapped and move around, it will cause it to scratch.

Interesting. Is the aluminum flush with the glass?

I believe it is. All the reviews on the iPhone 6 which is basically the same glass are positive. I think the aluminum might look cool but I'm in the same boat. I'm going to wait for some reviews and when the white version comes out
I like the look of this lots but wonder how the crown will effect the fitting of a case, I'll also be waiting for a black version and seeing if they post to the uk

One of the reviews I watched mentioned that the taper of the crown where I case would meet is approximately .1 mm. I would imagine it depends on how much the case wraps around the front of the screen. The one that's on my phone right now actually doesn't even get to the glass.

I'd agree it will depend on the case and my current one a spigen neo hybrid over laps the glass I would say by about 1mm or possibly 2mm, still very tempted once the black version arrives.
Op will you also update when they make the black variant available?

We will only have silver at launch. We are planning to add more colors in the future. Thanks for the inquiry Dave!
Bit vague unfortunately.
Why they would only have silver when the phones are either white, black or gold is beyond me.
'Cause aluminum is silver and they're rushing the product out before they can get a process in place to paint or powder-coat or whatever the aluminum?

They have the "Crown" for the iPhone 6, 6 Plus and Note 4 in Black & White. I believe that they should have the color process down pat by now.

Ok, new theory: They want you to buy the silver one, then buy a new one when the color you want comes out.
See? I'm adaptable.

And I believe you are also 100% correct.
So all this is really doing is using the "silver crown" to hide halos, right? It doesn't sound all that revolutionary, but I guess its one way to get rid of the halo problem.

Correct. Basically the same idea as the tempered glass screen protectors with colored borders. Both are just two different ways with dealing with the halo. The good thing about the crown is that it actually curves with the actual glass. Whereas the edge to edge tempered glass screen protectors have a small gap between the edges of the tempered glass and screen that tends to build up dust.

I bought one for my Note 4 and to be honest I was very dissapointed. After installing the glass and the crown piece (they are seperate) I still ended up with a very slight halo that can be seen all the way around the glass - it was small but you could see it when the screen is off.
The "Crown" piece isn't as smooth as you would hope and my finger catches on it - particuarly around the home button -(at the bottom of the phone)
The concept sounded good - but the execution was slightly off - I complained about it to Body Guardz and they sent me a new one - same thing happened.
I still have it on the note - but I would never buy it again and I won't be buying it for the S6 - but that is just me. Others may have different results.
Fits device perfectly, sensors are cut out. This is the "old" model, the new case friendly one is arriving next week & I'll update this post.

Haven't installed yet. First time using a TGSP so not sure what to expect. All I know is I wish they kept it edge to edge since I plan on using a thin fit case.
Thanks bro

Just got mine yesterday and finally installed this morning. I absolutely love this product.

I got the new model of this over the weekend. I got 2 and both had issues adhering to the lower right hand corner of my screen. Phone's screen was super clean and I even wore gloves to make sure I didn't get any oils on the screen. I left the one on for a day thinking it might lay down flat but never did. It started getting snagged when I put the phone in my pocket so I took it off. Tried the 2nd one and had the same thing happen. Not sure what the deal was but I opened up a warranty claim with IntelliArmor.

No worries. I think I will. From looking into it though it might be a manufacturing issue and the replacement might be warped as well.
Mine adhered OK in 3 of 4 corners. I think the 4th not adhering might have been my fault (when I lined it up to drop it onto the screen, it "air hockeyed" and slid a little bit out of place so I had to gently pry it back up.....the spot(s) I had to pry it back up are the spots that arent adhering as nicely)
I have to say I love the protector itself, just wish I had gotten it to land correctly the first time and wish it hadnt taken so long to get here. I mean, I ordered the iVolar one over the weekend, for $0.95 after coupon, and its scheduled to be delivered tomorrow or Wed.
so my last phone broke with a very small drop in a case, so i decided to just go the skin route for scratch protection and customizability. I Just put it on, it was a long process but I like how it came out. Let me know what you think. Feel free to ask questions
