Hi
Anyone here got this case? Looks good, what is the material like? they say its not silicone but still flexible?
http://www.expansys.com/d.aspx?i=199613
Okay, just though what the heck for £2.64 , got this one on ebay, sounds the same, will let everyone know what its like once I get one

Can you let me know how the DC Mugen one goes? I'm a big fan of their cases and they said they weren't going to make any so I ended up buying one from somewhere else.
I went for the Epik cases when I got my Nokia 5800 and they protected the phone amazingly. It wasn't too big on the phone and bounced well lol. Really protected the phone.
Ah. Despite buying one from another company, I'm going to get this.
Cheers

i ordered one of these today to replace my nexus gel cover. it looks like an improvement, will see when it arrives
FWIW - the Nexus one case I purchased as an interim case whilst waiting on something better to come out appears to be an Epik case.
The case I got is the one with the red Nexus One badge on the back.
Cost about 3 quid off ebay...
I just ordered a Mugen Epik specifically for the Desire - I bought the TPU one.
Will give you the rundown once I've recieved it.
Anyone know if there is a totally transparent one available in this type. The only ones that I could find are for the Nexus One.
Reviews of this one (any colour!) would be good though, looks a slightly bulky in the pictures but I'm guessing it will be the same as the silcone cases.
Got this one today.Am very happy with it. £2.28 delivered
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Google-Nexus-...sesPouches&hash=item5191cc07e9#ht_1658wt_1161
I'm getting this one. http://cgi.ebay.com.au/Silicon-Skin-case-cover-HTC-Desire-Bravo-G7-film-/230470479711
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/BLACK-Soft-Ge...essories_RL&hash=item3a5a65d0e5#ht_2273wt_772
mine arrived today, perfect fit. its the same as the nexus gel covers with the red badge on the back, but it fits the desire properly and everything lines up.

How long did the delivery take? Any chance of pictures? The ones on eBay seem out of proportion for some reason, making the case look a bit bulky.

i ordered it on 3rd May, so just over a week. it's not bulky, it looks the same as the nexus gel cover i've been using for a month when fitted to me.
i'll see if i can sort some pics out later.
the screen protector that comes with it is one of the ones with the 2 tabs to apply, also comes with a cloth.

Thanks for that. I currently have a Nexus cover too. Think I will go ahead and order it. I did actually want a TOTALLY clear (Desire specific) case but as of yet, all those that I've seen are either tinted or coloured.

Nice one. Your pictures do the case far more justice than the ebay pics. The smoked black is starting to grown on me.
@str355: That's an actual 'hard case' isn't it? I do prefer the 'soft' ones.
mistake.... oops
Mine arrived yesterday (DC Mugen), it's a perfect fit for the Desire.
Just a tad bit annoying trying to unlock the phone, you have to press on the button harder with the skin on, and there's less of a 'feel' as to whether the button is pressed down or not.
After using a case mate naked tough case on my nexus 6 I was looking at getting a case with a kick stand for media consumption and so far not seen any for the 6p. If anyone has seen one can you let me know. Iv ordered a cheap one for the time being to offer some protection but it is only meant as a temporary until I can find one I actually want and fits the bill for my needs

I've seen a few on Amazon with kickstands.
http://amzn.com/B015K7XRUM
http://amzn.com/B015X6FAE6
http://amzn.com/B014ZJKDEY
Do a deeper search than I did and I bet you'll find more. Most of these seem to be the extremely bulky case types, which don't interest me personally. One case I had for the Nexus 6 which had a kickstand but was also slim was the Seidio Surface case. http://www.seidioonline.com/motorola-nexus-6-surface-kickstand-case-garnet-red-p/csr3mtn6k-gr.htm You might want to contact them and see if they plan on making a N6P case. I'll vouch for Seidio - they make pretty good products. I've even deployed them with iPhones at work.
Thanks, none of those are on Amazon UK as far as I know but il keep looking

I saw something recently about how a lot of the early cases are blocking important parts of the sensor/antenna bar (the black bar on the back of the phone). Does anyone know how much of the bar needs to be exposed to not impede functionality?
And to the OP, I've had a kickstand case with my last two phones, and last two tablets, and I just can't go back to a device without it now. So thanks for starting this thread.

I have found that many of these are preproduction images, so I wouldn't rely on the current pictures to show me anything more than a rough idea of what the final product will generally look like. Several product images have already changed on Amazon's site.
Wait until the middle / end of October for all the companies to get the products finalized. This forum already has several threads with replies from manufacturers saying designs aren't final. They are just trying to ensure they get their piece of the pie on early and preorder case dollars when they list products this early on Amazon.

Gotcha, thanks for the info.
Real interested in the i-Blason case since I'm looking for a hybrid case with a kickstand that gives me peace of mind without Nexus protect.
However I emailed them aobut the laser AF problem and got this:
Dear Customer
I cannot guarantee that will not block it. I have not information concerning this problem.
Thank you
CSR Team
Might try again in a few days...
Once Seidio releases their cases the Surface should have a kickstand. Using that case now on my S4 and love it.

Sigh... No news on these? I only see the the moko and caseformers..... Anything more fancy and slim as i don't think seidio is making one

This one on amazon appears to be slim, and has a kickstand too:

Was thinking of it but looks very cheap
Plastic stand and i hate the silicon wrapped in Plastic.
I've seen nicer ones that are more costly by reputable companies but none for 6p
Bought a tpu for now from tudia.... Nice and slim but would like to have a spare with kickstand so I'll wait a bit more to see if anything comes up
Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Tapatalk
A case with a stand will be ultimately what I get.
As I am getting a silver phone rather than a black one, I would really love a crystal clear case with stand! Although I'm sure this will never happen.
If you guys are wondering the quality of the caseformers, I have one for my Note 5 and did a quick review on YouTube. See for yourself.

Thanks.... How is it when laying flat in a desk. Seems like there is a bulge.. Does it wobble at all?

Spigen has a ring that attaches to any case (flat surface) that works as a kickstand and a grip helper for the phone. They also include a car mount with it. Here's the link

Doesn't it make it wobble when flat? Looked cool initially but I think it's a bit weird to carry 24/7 on such a nice phone. And I doubt it last forever if constantly removing it.
Thanks anyway though
I haven't received it yet, but I know that I will be using it as a kickstand, so what's the relevance of "lying flat"? It looks like if you stick it above center, but still out of the way of the Imprint sensor, it should sit on a table/desk at a very convenient angle in either orientation...

I just sometimes lay it flat and don't always use a kickstand. I enjoy it when I need it but not all the time.
I'd prefer a thin case that has a kickstand if and when needed.... But each use phone differently

So I have a folio style case currently which I like a lot. Fintie is the brand I believe, it does not cover the buttons and I know this isn't really a new issue but I know people had button issues. Well it popped into my head cause I have a Nexus 6p that I bought two different cases for. One case made the buttons so clicky and tactile it was great. I don't have experience with cases that cover the buttons on the nexus 9 but to get the point is there a case for the 9 that covers the buttons which would at the very least give a different feel to the buttons and is also folio style? It seems like all I can find is a cover style or a folio(with a shell and cutouts), I can't be the only one to want or think of mixing the two styles?
Use HTC Magic Cover Case
You should use HTC magic cover case for your Nexus 9. It comes in a variety of colors and its body is also pretty much strong. One of my friend is using it.:good:

You're not. I searched a lot for a case like that and, just like you, never found a good folio that has the buttons covered (like in the Ringke back covers).
And no, the HTC magic cover is not remotely close to what the OP is asking.

Samsung Clear Cover Note 9 Transparent
FYI..
Actually samsung did it with Note9, found it by luck in one of our local online stores here in Dubai. I don't think its available on Amazon anywhere (US, UK & CANADA) YETTTT...
Sharing it here so if others are interested, they can keep an open eye around waiting for it.
This is mostly a plastic snap on case, not a tpu.
Ordered it, & i didn't receive it yet, will update this upon receiving it. If any is interested.
The local online store doesn't ship internationally, so am not sharing it here.
I want this. Keep me updated OP
I’m really looking forward to this case. It is the only one of the official cases that appears to be out of stock everywhere. I had this hard case for my Note 8 and even though it doesn’t seem to offer that much protection it provides a perfect grip and make the withd of the phone ideal to not slip at all from the hand.
Doesnt it come with the phone?

I've bought it today. It looks very nice and slim. Of course it fits like glove. It has a grippy feeling which is good for me. And it is soft not a hard case. I'm glad I've bought it Hope it does not turn to yellow soon.
Could you please upload some pictures? I wonder if it is the same case that came in the box ?
Looks like they tinted it slightly blue/gray which should reduce the yellowing effect.
I want the hard plastic case like they had for the Note 8. Felt like you didnt even have a case on it. Oh well.

I bought this generic one on 8/15, it delivered today:
https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https://www.ebay.com/ulk/itm/292656916441
Real nice fit, ultra slim profile & no rainbow effect.
FWIW, it does not have the raised corners (or any raised edges) like the PC OEM Case for the Note 8.
Protection is as minimal as it gets, top & bottom are fully exposed, oversized cutouts for the buttons.
IMHO, perfect......
@Semantics
EDIT:
Seems the selller has updated/substituted what I purchased.
The one in the link is not what I have,SMH,sorry about that........
@Semantics
EDIT #2
Here's one that closely resembles what I ordered:
https://www.ebay.com/itm/Galaxy-Not...-Cover-Clear/163216970699?hash=item26007d53cb
It has a bit more coverage,but,the buttons are still cut out,vs the protuding button coverage on most cases.
Yeah,a bit pricier than the one I originally linked,but,it's cheaper than the OEM Samsung one & actually available now.

Sorry if this has been asked before, a cursory search didn't return what I am looking for.
I just upgraded to the Note 9 from the S7. With my S7 I had an awesome case from Jaymo PixCase where I could print (on paper) pictures for the back of my phone. (Case is clear on the back). I really want to do this with the Note 9 but I've been unable to find a case (Jaymo said they have no plans for one) or a template to do the pictures and just use a generic clear backed case.
Does anyone know of a site to buy a case that has a template where I can drop my pictures in so I can print at home? Or are there some other options I haven't thought of or found?
TIA

A quick Google search turned up the following results (similar to the Jaymo PicCase):

IDK if the images submitted to these sites are interchangeable or fixed,but,it's something worth looking into.
Thanks. I saw those however they a just printed cases and not quite what I want.

That's what I figured.
Unless there's something else out there,you may have to resort to getting your own prints & trimming to fit for one of the many clear cases out there.
Admittedly,not everyone has the skill/patience to get it right w/o many attempts,yours truly included.
If that's the only option you're left with,most hobby shops likely have cutting tools/punches to get a professional look/fit.
Ringke Fusion cases come with a template to make the right size pics to go in the case. At least, they used to.
