Excellent Case for a Commuter! - Nexus 4 Accessories

So I'm a university student who has to commute to school everyday. I wanted to get a clear case that let's me show my month pass so I don't have to fumble around with my wallet. I tried looking at the malls but they were all for $10 or more.
I found this for 2 bucks: http://www.tmart.com/S-Pattern-Prot...Nexus-4-E960---Translucent-White_p195307.html
I received it in a week. The case was exactly like the one I saw in stores. The build is good, and there isn't really much to say about it other than that it serves my purpose well! Here are some pics:

cool

This is old as ****, no need for a another case thread...

On topic: for two bucks that's definitely a nice case.

I got the same but in black simply because I was fed up with the phone sliding off desks/shelves/toilet cisterns/the floor.
It's tough and easy to remove at night when I slot the phone into a charging cradle.

[Q] Dropped my skyrocket!

ok so i just got my skyrocket about a week ago. And i dropped it and the chrome around the phone chipped pretty bad. I tried to go into today to say like the phone was laggy and stuff. Then the associate said just restart the phone. Then i asked her about what the insurance policy is and i asked about the chipped chrome and she told me to go to the AT&T service center and said they would swap it out. i went which is about like 30 min away from me and once i got there they said they wouldn't do it. Anybody know what i can do to replace it?
Brick it?

I wish I could like this! Even if you brick your phone they should look at it and deny your claim due to abuse. I would if I were the sales person. It's people like you who drive our prices up.

That, or just don't drop the thing to begin with.
You should have had a case from day 1. They will not replace a phone with serious visual defects unless the defects are from manufacturing. Also, bricking the phone will not do it either since it has been dropped. You're just gonna have to deal with it. Sorry.

Exactly we are talking about a gadget not war or chivalry.....we all make mistakes that's human nature and I'm not saying his reason is the best my rocket has taken some spills and it still works but I will say us middle class people work 5 maybe more days a week and should be cut some slack when it comes to things like this when big companies could care less I say we don't get enough from most big companies just enough for us not to leave. But this makes you a bad person ? Robin hood stole from the rich and gave to the poor but he still stole. There are rapists and killers you can talk to about honor.

How about a $104,000(!!!) Case?

http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/B00B7QGT6U/ref=dp_olp_new?ie=UTF8&condition=new
I don't know if this has been posted before, but I've been looking for a case that is Minimal and still shows off the back of the phone. I came across this one and went to look at the prices available... than I looked at the last option... $104,921.73!!!!! I HOPE this is a seller error... I really do hope... I just thought this was funny and I would share with fellow Nexus 4/XDAers. Have a good one.
Actually it says $13,99.
Or maybe the dollar devaluated again...
Edit: OMG just saw it! What a silly way to say you're out of stock...

Got mine yesterday! Great case i have to say. Highly recomended!!! :good:

Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda premium
I was thinking if ANY case is that much it better have an extra 3,000mh (if that's the right abbreviation) battery built in, signal boosters for both WiFi and Cell Data/Radio, pure diamond and/or hardened steel, light-weight, and have an extra voice assistant that knows you by name and balances your checkbook.
Side note, I am thinking about this case but does it add a lot of extra bulk to the device?

Help, can't put down my phone!

I'm gonna need a rehabilitation center for this phone, I bought it 4 hours ago and every time I put it down it takes 2-3 minutes before I am yearning to pick it up and play with it again. I think that Samsung has slipped some chemical in the phone that creates an addiction. Is anyone else experiencing this? Has anyone found any decent techniques to rehabilitate themselves?

There aren't too many options. Check out store.androidcommunity.com/krusell-sealabox-waterproof-case/4A104A13551.htm but its not specifically s4, so fit might be a bit loose. There are a few more in development, specifically for the s4 so that should help.
Yeah see that's more like a temporary case to use when needed I'm looking for something along the lines of life proof

I thought they said they were not making an S4 case. That's cool. I gotta decide between Seidio, bFree, and LifeProof now I guess. I put my S4 in my dad's otterbox armor and it fit haha but it was snug. Seems like making one for the S4 should be a lot like the S3

I agree. The otterbox is huge and they flat out said no to the S4 to me. I like Seidio a lot though. I had the Obex for the S3, and it was a pain to get on and off, but it worked great.

I actually had that issue with the Obex. I ordered some small monster extenders for $4 I think from Amazon. They were a good purchase, I keep them attached to all my aux cords so that I can just plug that in. Adds about 3 inches to the cord. This bFree looks sweet too, but it's only good for 3 feet 30 minutes like the active.

There's one in every thread that does this. I mean I understand it works, but does the joke not get old? If we wanted to use ziplog baggies why even have the thread. Everyone should know by now that a ziploc will work for the most part. They're too big for the phone, they can rip, and you might not seal it perfectly once, the last 2 end badly for the phone and user.

Can you put up some sort of review online? I just came across this yesterday and I need one bad but I haven't seen any sort of reviews on it... Video would be great or just written. How is the screen protector? Is it a tight fit or is there a lot of space between it and the screen?
