I Just found some really good one from ebay: -

Thanks

Why don't these cases cover the top of the phone! Is there like a reason for this?! I mean seriously, the phone can fall out, you can drop it on its top, what would make them leave the top part of the phone un-protected and cover the rest of it -_-'

I guess you can see the upper part of the phone so you can take it out with your fingers.
The pouch is only on the phone when you are not using it i.e. pocket, handbag & anyway when you are not using it what the % anyway the chance that its going fall on the upper visible side of the phone.
the only concern is that the pouch has a magnetics...which might mess up you compass.

I don't think the magnet is strong enough to mess up the compass
Sorry too junior to post a link but what about the pull-tab leather holster from shop.brando.com ( use find product on the home page ).
magnets will screw with your compass. I had an N1 holster with magnetic
lid closure. I tested first. Started with the compass app on, with the phone
front of me like normal and held the holster at arms length, and slowly brought
it closer. At about 2 1/2 ft, the compass needle started deflecting, and got
much worse as I brought the holster closer. Got my money back.
I've also had two of my bank payments cards destroyed by magnets on the phone-holster....The magnet-stripe on the cards couldn't take it when I accidently put the phone and card in same pocket....
(of course the chip on the cards is more widely used now, instead of the stripe, but...)

What is wrong with it specifically? How is the quality and fit?
I'm looking for a nicer case than the stock one, mostly to protect it from my keys. I don't really mind if the compass doesn't work when I'm not using the phone.
If this isn't it, does anyone else have a recommendation for a quality N1 case under $40?
I want a real friggin' pouch with leather carved of Virginian grown cows with the Android logo iron-burned into the leather and smooth innside lining.. I would pay top $$$ for one.
None of that fake syntethic leather stuff.. i want to spoil my Nexus..
Somthing like this: http://www.senacases.com/google/htc-google-nexus-one-cases/
I ordered http://www.pdair.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=10100000_900000_11000884&products_id=28053
Looks classy and nice, even though it won't have a flip i hope it will fit it tight enough. Still, i want a cow pouch and would kill for one..
I have the sena flip case with the magnets. It does not affect the compass when the flip part of it is open or flipped backwards under the phone. If you go to flip it closed the needle will twirl as you pass the magnets over the top of the phone. That's the only time though. Nothing while it's in the case.
I hated the case at first. Couldn't grab the pull down bar at the top of the phone. After breaking it in for a week it was no problem.

I've always liked Sena cases. VERY high quality stuff. I two in the past, one for my HTC 8125 and one for my Blackjack II. Never ended up getting one for my Tilt 2, though. I play on getting the Ultraslim soon for my Nexus One.
You can tell these manufacturers do not use a cell phone.
These cases NEVER have a hole for the speaker. With the nexus speaker being so low I can only imagine how those cases will muffle the sound.
I always end up cutting a hole myself, but WHY don't they do that themselves? Would be very easy for them, than we can hear ringtones and music with no problem!

Yeah it is sweet but I gave it away because I use the chrome snap-on case from Case-mate and it would fit anymore now I have to use the pouch that came with the phone which I love anyways. When it comes to the Snap-ons I've bought almost all of them even the new one from Incipio and they are all pure crap except the one from Case-mate I give it a 9/10. Also I submitted a review for that case 5 stars but for some reason they didn't accept it.

There is the original HTC pouch for the Desire. This should work great with the Nexus.

Any cases you guys can reccomend that can hold cards or folded post its?
Thanks
I want to try the CM4 case, but I can't get myself to spend $35-40 on it. Its a TPU case with a leather card holder. The speaker vent is cool too. You can find it on Amazon and eBay. eBay has a $5 off $20 on cell phone accessories promo going on today.

This looks cool, is the door secured enough? It's concerning when it gets bumped that the door would open and spill the cards out.
If secured enough then it's a good deal for $5 only at this time.

i cant open the door at times trying to force it open.. its a great lock system they have on it and bumping it wont open that door. n yeah $5 holler heller cant go wrong with that really. i like it. just trim away the flaps with a blade or they get in the way..
Hey guys,
I've searched around here and amazon for a replacement battery door for my note 4 to no avail. I've seen a few metal ones, but what I'm really looking for is a material that is similar to the back of the Nexus 5--a kind of soft-touch/rubbery/smooth material that has some grip to it.
With the current battery door my note 4 slides all over the place in my car, where the Nexus 5 would stay exactly where I put it.
If anyone has any idea where I could find one of these I would appreciate it. It doesn't have to be white, but that would be best--I could live with black though.
Thanks,

You might consider the Samsung protective cover. The back of it has a nice grippy texture, it adds very little bulk, makes the phone easier to hold, and protects pretty well too.
holycow, did you read my post or just the title?
bourne, thanks for the suggestion, but I really don't want a case, just a grippy battery door replacement. one may not exist...but I thought asking here would be worth a shot.
someone 3d print me one
Try one of those invisible shields on the back cover.. That'll give it grip.

It is a shame to cover that nice metal frame. I split the difference by using the case when I'm working or driving, keeping the phone safe and not sliding around, and take it off when out for the evening or around the house.
I did get a Ram Mount for the car, which keeps it in place nicely, although it is still better off in the case, it fits in the holder better.
You could try some velcro tape or something similar perhaps. Use the hook part somewhere convenient in the car and the loop part on the cover.
I doubt you'll find a custom cover any time soon.
Hi
My unicorn beetle case just arrive and I want to share my toughts with you.
First I order it from Amazon as I live in Chile the final cost was around 50 bucks.
I drop my first moto x 2014 (the one in the pics) and it screen shattered so a case for my new moto X was a must.
The case came in a really simple cardboard box, inside you find the 3 parts of the case:
- Front panel
- Back panel
- Belt clip holster
The plastic bag that contain them have a QR code with a link to a video of how asamble it but is really very easy.
The front panel have a integrated screen protector and only leave the mic, front camera and speaker unprotected (this is why this case is not waterproof).
The backpanel leaves the Motorola, the camera and the back mics unprotected also, but it have protectors for usb port and the audio jack.
The only fail that I notice is the holster, only once I was able to attach the phone to it, I haven't been able to do it again, it should be a lot more easier, but anyway I dind't plan to use it.
The phone dosn't gain a lot of weight and I still feel it comfortable.

But now appears as unavaible.
It don't show up in the company webpage neither I don't know why.
Update:
The holster works great but the screen goes looking inside, the camera face out that is the reason why it dont fit when i tried

I don't know if that will be a great idea, I use mine all the time but for a test that I really need to use wolfram alpha I remove it, I haven't been able since then to use it with out bubbles in the screen protector.
Actually bought one,
Very happy with it, just the hard plastic back is easily scratchable, i already got a deep scracth in it... Tried it on a coloured back moto X too and the frosted back is wonderful !
15€ on Amazon.fr
any updates? i tried the link you posted but had no luck. i got my phone on jan 2,15 and havent yet been able to find a case i like for it.
I've had this case for about a week, and I have mixed feelings. It's a very rugged case, and I feel comfortable about the phone not being damaged. However, there are a few things I would change about this case if I could. First, since the case isn't waterproof, it could do without the integrated screen protector and headphone/power port covers. It takes a little bit of dexterity to hold the cover open just to plug in the charger. Secondly, the power and volume buttons could be more pronounced. I have accidentally turned off the screen many times while trying to adjust the volume.
I don't regret the purchase, though, and I'd definitely recommend it as an alternative to Otterbox.
I've had this case in white for just over a month, here are my impressions.
- sturdy case
- excellent quality
- great price
First thing I did was yank off the screen protector. It is a far better plan to apply something like a BSE skin than to keep using the screen protector that's included.
This means you can take off/on the case with little fuss as much as you want. Its easy to remove and seems up to the task of repeated removal.
The fact that the front of the phone sits in the trim piece is awesome. Makes for a sandwiched and protected feel.
I like the port covers. Yes, they can be a pain to pop open for time to time but again they also seem to be built well enough to take the abuse.
Since we don't have a waterproof phone but only the nanocoating inside I like the added ingress protection that they offer.
I have the white/grey case and it is gaining some darkness on the corners but I'll blame my grubby mitts on that one.
The holster is good not great. Phone sits well in it and feels well made. Too bad its missing the kickstand in the clip.
All in all I give it a 9/10.
For the price it sells for and the protection it offers its a no brainer.

white unicorn?!
@shanedragon, could you please post some pics of the case? I'm about to pull the trigger on the black/blue version, but I'm curious about how the white looks in real life.
I'll do the same, if I get the blue.
Thanks!

I have it in white. Here are a few photos I took. The photo of the front is a bit blurry.. Sorry!
I've had one of these cases for a while. I only use it when at work and do a manual job with dust, grit, grime and angry bovines. Well they're not angry all the time! The case is the dark gray/black and is in not bad condition considering. The Moto X on the other hand is pristine despites drops out of open tractor doors, drops onto concrete and countless excursions onto cab floors.
The built in screen protector is useful as I don't have anything on my moto x 2014 screen. I tried a couple of the glass screen protectors but removed both after a short time with the edges lifting and dust getting under the lifted edges. I also like the port covers though agree both are a little tricky to open. That said I rarely open either when the case is fitted. On previous phones I've has dust and chaff get jammed in the usb port and once somehow managed to get an animal feed pellet stuck in the headphones jack.
When I ordered the Unicorn case, unbeknown to me the mrs had ordered me an Otterbox Defender case so have that as well. It seems to bulk the phone more than the Unicorn case and the rubber texture makes it less easy to remove from pockets. It is also harder to fit compared to the Unicorn but on the other hand you about need a tyre lever to remove the Unicorn. It's a good case but prefer the Unicorn. I say again I only use a case on my Moto X for work. For pleasure it goes bare
I ordered the Beetle case, and it is in my opinion, the best case I have tried for the phone.
Thanks for the suggestion
Can anyone recommend a waterproof pouch to take nexus 6p to the beach and pool.? I don't care much about diving with it or even able to use the camera. Just want a pouch to be able to take phone for swim without worrying about get it wet.
Calicase should have one for your phone.

CaliCase worked wonderfully for me this summer. I was able to take pictures under water and the case makes the phone float. I thought that pictures with the case would come out blurred but they were surprisingly nice.
Android Authority is giving a Calicase pouch away for the Nexus 6p and it looks like Amazon has a promo for 10% off for this case, this week only. Coupon code in link below:
