Here are some pictures of the gel skin sold at Tmobile.
PRO'S: Case serves great protection and style as well.
The black color is really nice, compliments the color of the phone.
Its a silicone case, very flexible, that is textured. It is also really easy to install.
The bulk that it adds is very minimal.
CONS: One in particular is that if you like the ease of just pulling it out of your,
the whole case grabs onto the inside of your pocket, pulling the pocket inside-out.
OVERALL:: Overall, I recommend this case to anyone that is looking for some
great protection, with very little bulk adding to the phone.

that looks very nice, fit & finish is excellent!
how much was it and is it available internationally? definately want one....
Not bad, how much did that cost?
Around $17 plus tax but I bought it with some screen protectors so they gave me 20% off. Was about 14 dollars after discount.

I got one also yesterday. Fits great, feels good, easy to get off and on. I use it at home only. At work I keep it naked and sexy!
I also got the screen protectors. Clear type like I like and if put on correctly they adhere 100% no bubbles or air gaps.
The gel skin is a good case until otterbox decides to make a case for it. The screen protector is garbage. I had finger scratching on the screen protector before I left the store. But it will have to do until the zagg screens are out.

Found this original hTC case over at Expansys and the price is fairly good. Also looks like it is an identical color match with the phone battery cover; this is a major plus for a more stealth look!
Going to order one right away!

Really nice find man. Ordering one right now, thanks!
I just got the T-mobile screen protectors. Not bad.
I had the rep at T-mobile put it on, figure if she screwed up she'd give me a free one or something. She had already done a few Sensations and I must say she did a good job. Better I know then if I tried it. There are just a few tiny bubbles that I think I can work out, not really noticeable. She did throw in an extra free one because she bad that she slightly scratched the protector trying to get one of the bubbles out. I can't even really see it. So overall a happy experience.
My Body Glove case is being sent to my home now - so that should be an all together different but interesting experience!
Here's a quick video I put up of the official T-Mobile gel case:

It's a pretty nice case, just very, very linty. :/
I ordered the PhantomSkinz Matt full body skin.
http://phantomskinz.com/htcsensation4g.aspx
Comes with 2 sets and the screen part also comes with 2 sets of Matt finish and Clear Gloss finish.
I use the glossy finish for the display. I think they have the best feel.
There is also a summer discount code for 25% off right now.

Have Tried to find which case do people prefer - Between Rearth Ringke and Diztronic. The owners of both seem to love it, but dint find any comaring one with another - need help in deciding which one to buy( Both available on Amazon)
Those who've used/have Both - Please give the specific details of why/if you like one over the other.
And, Color choice - Grey vs Metallic Black?
Thanks
the Matte Navy Ringke Slim is awesome. Looks great on a N4.

Co-sign. The revised case is awesome, and fits super well. Cut outs are all perfect.

I have Skinomi skin protector on with Ringke. The top-left corner is a little too tight and it pushes the skin protector up a bit. Regardless, I still love the case a lot.
Anyone have any thoughts on Nillkin vs Ringke vs Diztronic?
Have 2 Ringkes and a black Diztronic, of the 3, the white Ringke is by far my favourite. The Diztronic is nice, too but I find it takes away from the visual clean lines of the Nexy where as the Ringkes are so minimal, you don't notice it. Will likely be selling the Dizt shortly.

Of the Ringkes, I have one black and one white. I pondered on the grey as well but did't want to buy too many. The white is simply stunning.
Ringke All the Way!!!
I have both and I'd have to say Ringke is the best of the two. I especially like it because of how clean it is, looking that is. Keeps the phone looking very sleek.
Also, Rearth Ringke has very good customer service. At least with me they have. I pre-ordered the original one, and it had the slight manufacturer defect. I just e-mailed them through amazon asking for a replacement, not a refund. They had the revised edition in my mailbox on December 12th, day after they started shipping. They didn't charge me a dime, and even told me to keep the defected one and how to 'bend' it to correct it. I only sent a single e-mail, and they honored their product. Don't really see that much for accessory providers, at least in my experience.
Edit:
I have an xoskin on my phone with this case, and it doesn't mess with the screen protector at all. The xoskin is actually the best screen protector I've bought so far. I doesn't even feel like it's there. Smooth glossy/glass like movement when swiping.

I vouch for this. Except I contacted them directly towards emails and no response (maybe they dont check those emails? .. not sure, but i got one from [email protected] but I eventually gave in and just called them and the lady was really nice) same case scenario over here. Got it replaced without question, received it Saturday.
Using the Black one here. Eco packaging very nice as well.

Well the Ringke will just protect from scratches. The Diztronic is TPU so it will protect from small drops.

I usually always get a Diztronic cases for my devices, until I replace it with a Mercury Pearl Tpu, as they become available outta Korea.
This time since there wasn't any Diztronic yet, so I went for the Nillikin and I am very impressed.
I may still buy a Diztronic eventually if I don't like the Poetic Atmosphere or a Mercury Pearl doesn't come out soon.
I own both and I would say diztronic ftw.

Same. The rearth is junk IMO. I was disappointed since I love the slim on my gnex but it just feels like they cut a lot of corners on the N4 version.

Cut corners as....? The Slim Rearth case looks exactly the same on the S3. it's their newer model of their cases whereas GN had everything covered on the sides.
Definitely not junk, I prefer the new style over the old. But the old one provides more protection, the new one i like the material of it a lot more.
I searched and didn't see a review for this case. I picked it up yesterday at T-Mobile I had a Ringke Slim prior to this case, I liked the Ringke Slim but I am so paranoid about dropping my phone and not having enough protection, primarily the top and bottom and the corners of the phone.
The Body Glove offers full protection for the Nexus 4. The case is a hybrid hard/soft case. The inside of the case is a "durable gel material" which extends out to the outer edges of the case so that if the phone drops face down it won't land on the glass. There is also gel material on the outside of the case covering the power and volume buttons as well as the back of the case for some slightly added grip and so when the case is placed down the hard plastic won't be touching whatever its laying on.
The case feels rather good in the hand as it does not add any significant weight or thickness to the phone which is awesome. Body Glove did a great job on keeping the ergonomics of the phone while the case is on. My only real complaint is Body Glove could have added more grip to the case. The little groves they added to the back of the case helps some but I think it would help with grip more if the groves were vertical and not horizontal.
Will add more pics of the case on the phone as well as comparison pics of the Ringke Slim.

My review is that it looks hideous.
Great review!!! It really don't look bad in person but I dont think any case really looks great anyway, to each their own I guess.
I also own this case and I have to say it's amazing, I feel like my phone is very protected and looks great. I was looking on amazon for weeks for a good case but I felt everything else was really cheep, the nova is a great looking high quality case and I wouldn't get anything else!
it looks stromtrooper-ish
they have an all black version if this particular one doesn't suit your taste. http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-BODY-GL...969187?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item23284cada3
Sad tht in India, we have less choice to get accessories , as I have got the phone through relative living in India.
I picked up the same case and I love it. Buttons feel good. Full all around protection. Color choice was pink or white and that's the only draw back imo

I just picked this up today. So far it fits great and the buttons feel good I just wish the edges weren't as boxy.
Anyways I took some pictures for you. The one with the screen turned on shows what looks like white splotches around the edge, but that's a reflection of something because the case shows some chrome on top and bottom. I couldn't get good lighting and the tablets camera sucks with no flash.

This case is just like the seidio active just with better fit due to more structure from the shell. The seidio is nice but doesn't have enough points of grip making the silicone underneath move a lot and letting in dust and particles.

How do the buttons feel ?
The inner silicone gel case looks thinner than similar dual layer cases (and i presume it cannot be separated from the outer shell as well) . Does it feel like it will give enough protection for a 4/5 ft concrete fall ?
Ooooh! This case is nice! I wish I would've bought this before I bought my Ringke Fusion.

Got the Spigen Neo-Hybrid case. Rubber shock case with hard plastic frame.
I like it, has the same texture as the S5 on the back. I have the silver, very nice looking. I think they have like 6 colors to choose from.
Weighs next to nothing and doesn't increase the phone size too much. Cheapest I found was Amazon - http://www.amazon.com/Spigen%C2%AE-METALLIZED-BUTTONS-Protective-Protection/dp/B00I3UWGVA/ref=sr_1_3?s=wireless&ie=UTF8&qid=1400088241&sr=1-3&keywords=Galaxy+S5+spigen+neo+hybrid
Nice Case ! :good:
Looks like a nice case, but the cheapest you found one amazon ain't cheap... I mean, in general this case isn't cheap lol
I bought this case for my S5 as I had it for the S4.
Dont know whether its the size difference between the two phones but, with this new case, my S5 seems huge.
I like the case but just prefer my phone without it....

Yeah, it squares the corners, i.e. makes it thicker. I could have lived without the larger screen on the S5. Made it just big enough to not fit a pocket but not enough to really make a difference. When everyone asks me what my phone is I tell them iPhone because it looks like a giant iPhone in this case.
I have that case and my phone looks huge with it.
Been looking for a back door with more protection in replacement of existing OEM door. Best way to get protection without increasing the size of the phone.
Wow, easily one of the best cases I've seen for the GS5.
I just returned thus case back to Amazon, I felt it made my phone too wide. But it is a really nice looking case, I'm ordering the ultra hybrid because I gad it on my nexus 5 and loved it

i have the all black. not the gloss but the matte. its pretty dope IMO makes it the black S5 look super clean..
Just saw this pop up on Amazon so I ordered a smoked grey one.
I loved ringke cases on all my nexus phones. Very good quality. I have the Samsung flip cover case, generic hard plastic case from eBay, and the Incipio dualshine pro case. I prefer the wallet case right now. The hard plastic case from eBay fits great and keeps the phone super slow and sleek but provides almost no protection.
The Incipio is a tad bulky since it's dual layer protection.
I'll let u all know how the ringke is.

I went through two already the bottom left corner of both of them were warped. It fit and felt good everywhere except the bottom left ...good luck with yours.
My bottom left is warped also.. other than that case is good

This Ringke case is nowhere near as good as the similar model cryatal case I have for my note 4, as you can see it only has a 3.5 star rating on Amazon. It has a feel of a $3.99 case. But right now there are only a few cases to chose from, so what can we do.
Really like the ringke
Here it is with full screen protector on
Decent case
I received my case on Saturday and I am pleasantly suprised with it. I needed a case because the UAG case I ordered has been put on back-order. I received the smoke edition and it gives my phone (black) a sleek unique look. I've read a few people had warped cases but mine was fine and provided a good snug fit. Case doesn't add bulk to phone and fits my hand well. Keep in mind it is a gel case so it wont protect the phone from a lot of drops but is an excellent case for me until my UAG case comes in. In addition it was only $12 and free 2 day shipping.

I don't know about anyone else but the top of my phone doesn't fit securely into the lip of the cover. I can literally run my thumb across the top of the case to separate it from the phone. That's means big trouble if I dropped the phone. If you get this case you still have to be wary of damage if dropped because no way it'll will stay in this case so this should be temporary until you can get a better case ASAP. Really a shame because Rearth cases are normally pretty good.
Just got mine. Very impressed. Great case. Fits tight. Highly recommended.

Love the concept and look. Got mine last week, power button doesnt line up, spen cant be pulled out inless you pull up on the case directly on top of the spen, ir blaster doesnt line up, barely holding the entire top lip. This thing is worth 2 bucks if that.
One good thing i wrote them an email and they said that i received a fluke and they sent me a new one today for free claiming it will fit better. We shall see and i hope so cause i really like it especially how nice and slim it is.

sounds like you got the same "flukey" case I got, but I didn't even bother contacting them I just chunked it in a draw and put the incipio case back on until I can find something thinner that'll actually fit to use. Maybe I'll give them a chance to redeem themselves with a replacement case.
I had a ringke case for my Note 4 and the first one was warped on one side. Clearly an issue they have. Replacement was excellent.
Quick update . Have had this case for a week now and I have no desire to order anything else except the flip wallet. Nice and tight and feels good in the hand. $13 is a good deal for this.
