Anyone from the UK found a decent case for the moto x 2nd gen yet? I've been looking for a couple of months now and still can't find a decent looking case. I really want the official moto bumper case sold on the US website but its not available over here!

Amazon have a few now, I've just bought a clear one for £3 (still waiting delivery). I did buy one from the US when I first got my phone, as there were none for sale in the UK. It was advertised as being clear but turned out to be frosted and was also causing issues with muting the microphone when on calls

Can you give us the link to the Motorola bumper on Amzon UK ? I can't find it.
Sorry haven't seem the bumper for sale, just standard cases.
Ok, i thought you were speaking about Casemate Hula case for Moto X.
The only way to get it for european owners is to buy it on US Case-mate site (but it is $13 shipping costs)

Thanks, but this had expired even before I clicked it.
see this one http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=170646411877
Thanks for that. Is there any others available preferably not from china?
I got myself one from China myself. The quality is decent for the $3, I am using the pouch for over a year now.
Or do you have any other reason you don't want shipping from China?
Just received mine a week ago, a bit ruff but, I guess it will soften up with my desire.
Thank you All!
Hi
thanks for pointing this case out, I just bought a really cheap fake leather flip case but ordered this to replace it as its far better looking.
expansys
Expansys has some nice ones....
i have a neoprene pounch bought on netimes.com...good quality and cheap price
For running I use the iGadgetz HTC Desire pouch. Its really good never had any problems with it. Bit more expensive though but worth it since I do a lot of running.
Theres nothing around!! They're just sleeves lol! :crying: Anybody know off any good cases that are out in the UK to use meanwhile. So far the options are bad, and I don't want to use a naked phone lol.
Hardly anything in the UK.
I'm waiting for the S gel cases to appear, it's bound to happen before one from China would arrive for me.
In the mean time I guess I'll just keep it in a sock/pouch type thing I have lying around.
Mobilefun are showing 3 dedicated cases , but these are NOT released yet , probably be soon though.
They have the genuine Nexus 4 bumper and 2 FlexiShield Skin cases here:-
http://www.mobilefun.co.uk/cat/Nexus-4-Cases.htm
Luckily it's almost the exact same size as the GNex so slides nicely into my old PDair case, might get a bumper but I'd like to see one first
Better off going online to find a case. High st retailers have a bad selection of cases.
There is a an s case available from in the UK now http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/TPU-Case-Cover-Nexus-4-LG-E960-/121022906472?var= they also have some 3 ply screen protectors. I had ordered an s vase from China but have got one of these coming now

lol! I posted about this case myself a few days ago. Thanks anyway
Flexishield
I need something until the official bumper turns up (damn! this phone is slippery) so I've ordered the black Flexishield from Mobilefun and will report back with my opinion.
S-Line case is very nice for the N4. Very grippy and looks good too. However, if you're buying this expecting it to prevent scratches on the back, don't. I have 3 or 4 fine scratches at the top of the rear glass after taking the phone out of the case. I'm sure it would help with shattering if it fell, but it seems to have caused a few scratches on the back :/ They're only visible at a certain angle but there are quite a few of them.
Nevertheless, they're just fine scratches and definitely nothing to cry about. I'm going to continue using the case!
I got my S line case a couple of days ago, for 99p including delivery to (and from) the UK - it was 2 days, it's rather great! Grippy, comfortable, not bulky and not scratching the phone either.

Is anyone over here actually receiving their bumper shipments yet? Sorry if there is a thread for this BTW.

It is a ridiculous situation for a piece of injection moulded plastic that must cost less than a pound to manufacture.
I've ordered the tpu s case from eBay, should arrive Monday.

I have the Bumper on order but am getting by with an S- line case and a pouch. I'm preferring the pouch though as the S- line, although grippy, feels woefully cheap.

Ionic Guardian + Spigen screen prot.
Well we (in the UK) can pre-order the ionic guardian ... which I think I'm going to do so my phone can hopefully take a few knocks (shame about no otterbox) ... and combine it with the spigen screen protector, just can't choose between oleophobic and ultra crystal ....
Edit: I can't post links but if you chcek amazon (uk) they are on there...
Anyone got a better/more protective set up that we can get here? .... I'm guessing there'll be a new wave of people in the UK looking into cases now that we were able to order again today (I luckily managed to get in on the 1-2 weeks but aren't counting my chickens till I get a shipping email)

Any body got this? looks very nice for Nexus 4.
Just order N4 so looking for case..this one looks nice to me

I'm in the same position as you. I also noticed how you got around the no URL thing (cunning) and so this is the one I'm considering getting:

Also ordered this, but coming from hong kong im not expecting it for another 2 weeks or so.
Will post a quick review when it arrives.

Just read some feedback on sellers ID and people are happy with it, Quality looks good. Also watched videos on youtube about Nillkin Matte Hard Cover and its positive so going to order for my nexus4 which i will get 1-2 weeks.
This is pretty ridiculous now...I ordered a bumper on 13th November!! Over 3 weeks later and it's still pending...Google Play support phone operators don't have any useful information about it...has anyone here gotten one of these yet from Google UK??
While google gets bumpers. Can you get them at tmobile or best buy yet?

nope. you may get lucky at one of those mall kiosks but i haven't found one yet in any store/kiosk anywhere in town. all my cases have been from the web.
Haven't seen any cases in stores yet. Your best bet would be to use an American eBay auction or to use a generic pouch case.
Ordered a smoky diztronic case. even sounds kinda cool
Amazon has cases available and shipping is rather quick if you the case you order is eligible for prime.
Rearth slim case is a good choice

Very good case and choice...I have the Matte Black one ...I love it...
I just ordered one from ebay from a us seller. fortunately its shipping from la so it should be here soon, this week it says, i just noticed some scratches on the back glass. How they got there.....who knows.
Hi everyone
Most of what I see here in regards to accessories is for America, in the UK I cant find anything really thats any good. If anyone comes across something then please let the rest of us Brits know xD
For the time being I ordered a cheap £4 tpu case from Amazon. Hopefully in a few months ebay/Amazon will have more choice.

The only case I managed to find which is actually in stock and shipping from the UK was the one called "Moto X Case, SUPCASE [Unicorn Beetle Series] for All New Motorola Moto X (2nd Gen.) Phone 2014 Release" on Amazon.
It has a black surround and a frosted back, which unfortunately is a bit too opaque to make out the navy coloured back of my phone. It does however seem to protect the phone pretty well.
When I looked at most of the cheap TPU/Silicone cases which seemed to be in stock they were from US resellers with long (1-3week) shipping times.
Has anyone else has trouble buying a case? I've found multiple sellers on both Amazon and eBay, but they all have the same problem. The shipping for the case is delayed by about 2 weeks+. Most of the delivery estimates tell me it will deliver to me by September 16- October 4. Kind of bummed about this since I just bought my phone yesterday, and would like to use it with a case.
For reference I live in Canada, but when I try to find a case for almost any other phone you can get it fast. I know the phone hasn't been out very long, but it's already been a few weeks, if I'm not mistaken.
I think it depends on how well the phone had been leaked / shown previous to launch.
I don't think many were expecting a x play so perhaps they didn't show it to case companies.
Annoying.
I have a case and screen protector on order and won't be using until I get them.

I know the feeling! I was actually considering the Cruzerlite bugdroid case until I saw the crazy delivery times.
I ended up going with the Motorola flip cover for now. $40 at Bell, $45 everywhere else
For anyone wondering I got a sleo slimline case which came really quick from Amazon.
Decent slimline case for the few quid I paid for it.
I tend to change my cases regularly so cheap and cheerful is OK for me.

Have you got a pic of the phone with the case on?
Reallly frustratingly i got my amazon order cancelled by i-BlasonEU due to 'stock issues' on the day my case was supposed to be dispatched!!! I went for the Supcase Unicorn Beetle in Black/Black http://www.amazon.co.uk/SUPCASE-Uni...w_p_img_2?ie=UTF8&refRID=0EXFJ2YRVVF5WRKZE2AQ . Even more frustrating is the fact that the frost/black version is available for prime AND cheaper!
As requested. Not the best photos but hope they help.

Very nice
When I bought it at the end of August, there was no OtterBox case available. It was important for me to have some kind of protection because I dropped my last phone often. Instead of the OtterBox, I got a slim silicon case and a screen protector, which protect against impact.
Have you tried Telus or Koodo? at my Friends telus they had a case for our phone.

Both Telus and Koodo have cases. The screen protectors are $15 (for the 2 pack no warranty), $35 for the single with warranty. I forgot how much the cases were, but they did have the one where you replace the back cover with the flip one (with the credit card slot on it).
But when I spoke to someone at Koodo, they said that the colored backs were online only. At least that's what the Moto rep told him.
Bell has the flip cover with the card slot for $40 (Telus & Koodo charge $45). They also have a little gel case for $20 but I wouldn't get it (buttons are way too hard to press)
For those wondering what the official flip cover looks like, here's the Teal version. The pattern is the same as the standard back cover, but feels more "grippy."
There are new cases from Incipio available:

You will get a handful of cases and screen guards.
Cruzerlite Bugdroid
The cruzerlite cover its perfect for this moto... I bought for the moto G 2013 before.
I just receive my Incipio Octane case and I'm 100% happy. Nice look and good grip. It feel like the Urban Armor case I had for my Samsung Galaxy phone.

Looks good. Where did u get it from? It's very hard to find a good case for moto play. I am using a transparent one gives a good grip and also compliments the back look of the device
