Where are the cases? - X Style (Pure) Accessories

Pre ordered the Moto X Pure. But looking for a nice tpu or bybrid case. Usually, there's a lot of cases available for a phone before the phone releases. But not the Pure/Style. I know there's a a few on amazon etc... But those cases are junk. Cheap made and will fall apart in a week. I see that incipio has one and ugly otterbox. But never really liked incipio and otterbox. But where are, seidio, Griffin, Belkin, UAG, Spigen???

I doubt UAG will have a case for the moto x pure but I would love it if they did.

Most of the high quality, big name companies didn't make for the previous 2nd Generation model, so they probably aren't for this. Maybe they have some kind of pay to play scheme and Moto isn't paying.

Well, for right now, I went for the MoKo. Less then $10. Hope it will hold till UAG or Spigen releases one. Or Supcase...

Is this case any good: http://www.amazon.com/MOTO-Pure-Case-2015-Style/dp/B01355VPT6

People seem to like the variant of it for the Moto G or whatever. The Amazon reviews are about the best feedback you're going to get for the moment. I bought a number of $3-4+shipping cases myself. I don't feel like buying a $30 Incipio case at the moment... And my old phone is still using a cheap case I put on it back in 2012, so I've had good experiences with the cheaper ones anyway.

It will hold. I have had that case for quite a few phones. It is just a bit bulky. I like it for phones under 5 inches and it was OK on the 2014 moto X.

Has anyone seen any cases like the flip shell for the Moto G? Most of these add to the already bulky look of the phone (and don't protect the screen).

I ordered this one (http://amzn.com/B013HSX5L2). I'm actually looking forward to the transparent back. I got the Ash wood back.

I ordered this case before my MXP arrived and had it waiting. I wish it was a little snugger fit, but it'll do for $8 shipped until something better comes along.
(Yes, the volume buttons are labeled incorrectly)

I just got my Moko. I'm not a fan. So far it seems well made, but the holster is backwards when I wear it on my left side.
In addition, it's off-center, so I'm always putting the phone in the wrong way, and the phone can't go in with screen facing out, which makes the the much more stable holster clipstand useless.

Waiting for my SUPCASE Hybrid to come in. Looking into getting a Seidio Note 4 or Note 5 holster since the Note 4/5 is about the same size as MXPE. I think there is a 0.02mm difference between Surface version and Dilex.

Case
Hi,
Just received the Incipio DualPro case. Fit is good, buttons respond well.
Decent dual layer protection. Back is a little slick/slippery.
I'll use it for a while and see how I like it,
Ken
Here it is: http://www.incipio.com/cases/smartp...ualpro-case-motorola-moto-x-pure-edition.html

I got the incipio octane and i really like it. The incipio dual pro is too slick to hold on to though

Does anyone have a pic of the Incipio Octane with frost back?
I'll give you a thank for it lol

Are there any bumpers besides the one that comes in the box..preferably TPU? The one that comes with the phone is a hard plastic that makes the vibration super loud on a desk, but I also don't want to cover the case with a full back.
Anybody found one?

Case-Mate Tough Case Best Out There! Read my review!

I will start this review by saying that I have owned a variety of different phones ( i get a new phone every 5-6 months) and with each of these phones i buy an expensive case (roughly 20-30 dollars)
The Case-Mate Tough Case beats them all.
I read every review on this board and decided to go with the Blue and Black Case-Mate Tough Case and it has been great.
The included screen protector is a great touch and the hard plastic and soft silicon allows for a great feel and great protection.
The case is easy to take off and looks great (the colors really make the phone unique because you do not see a high quality case that comes in different colors for any phone, many people were impressed when i pulled out my phone asking to feel it and hold it)
Three of my buddies all have Nexus Ones and they all ordered the Tough Case in different colors, two of my buddies were using Otterbox and they both agreed that the Case-Mate was not only more ergonomic it just looked and felt better and did not add the extra bulk the Otter did. Even tho I have never used an Otter extensively I do agree with their impressions just from holding their phones and holding mine and comparing them.
i 7use the tough case too and i gotta say, its great
I'm going to agree that it is an awesome case and I'm glad I decided to purchase it, especially over the otter box. I am going to disagree with the supplied screen protector. It was crap. I love the clarivue ultra clear protector, Its reusable, washable, no adhesive (static based) and You can't even tell I have it on. Ultra smooth, ultra clear, no glue.... awesome.

I have one ordered and it should be here next week. I need a holster for mine. Do you all know of one that will fit this case? Will the Seidio holster work for it? Thanks.
I have the black/black case mate tough case. The only and i mean only problem i sometimes have is that when I put the phone back into the hard shell, sometimes its hard to get the volume down button to work. That can be fixed by doing a little adjusting. I love this case and I wouldn't own anything else...
you guys got me interested in this case. how bulky does it make the nexus looks? the black/red looks pretty hot.....
I want it, but its cheap shipping option says it will take 3-4 weeks to Canada
even the $20 shipping says 8-14 days and with fedex... I pay brokerage..... why can't they do usps expedited?

It does add a little bulk, i'm not going to lie to you. However, in return your getting a sexy case plus a ****load of protection. You just simply can't go wrong with buying one of these cases. You definitely get what you pay for.

i use the nite ize holster with the tough case. http://www.niteize.com/collections/rugged-phone-cases/products/clip-case-cargo-medium
I bought black/blue on Friday. Tracking says it will be here today. I was going to write a review, but you beat me to it!
I report back to say if I like it or not.
To those who ask about bulk. Its adds a little bulk, but not as much as the otter box. Not even close if you ask me. And personally I feel the phone fits better in my hand with the case on. It doesn't feel like it will slip out.
Oh and the tough case gets double props for being able to buy the colored rubber inner sleeves separately without buying a whole new outer hard case with it.
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App
i honestly like the otterbox a lot better. its probably type of protection but i like that the ports are covered. u never know when something might get in there
My only gripe with the Case-Mate tough case and this is extremely minor is that because the hard case does not entirely cover the soft case, any lint that you might have in your pocket is attracted to the soft case.
Whenever I put my case in my pocket, it always attracts a little dust. Not enough to warrant getting a new case, but something that you should be aware of.
I used to use the Seidio Innocase II Surface, but it would keep cutting into my invisibleshield which ended up getting scratched off on the sides.
I definitely do love the case-mate though.

I took a look at the cases after your linked that and im very impressed!
being an elevator mechanic i snag my phone case on just about everything and have spent far too much money on holster. Does the medium size work well for you? i find that since the nexus one is a little longer then most bbs some cases the flap will not fold over at the top.
That case would suck for a nexus

Slim case

I love the design of this phone so I want the slimmest possible case I can find. Can anyone recommend a very slim case?
same as you, didn't really want to cover it up too much since the design is so nice. I went with this and I think it will be a good match. I have the white phone so I ordered the white case:
http://www.obostore.com/nillkin-ultra-slim-hard-shield-faceplate-for-htc-one-x-p-5711.html
lots of folks recommended this one http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B007X4XS3C/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00
I ordered it and it will be here Tuesday
You could get the official ones by HTC. They take minimalism to a whole new level bit the downside is its so expensive for a flimy piece of plastic. Or the feather cases by Incipio.

i ordered the black & gray ROCK cases and the case mate barely there case. the ROCK cases look nice but are definitely made for the International X. although they fit the One XL, the camera opening is about1-2 mm lower at the top. not a big issue for me at all. however, the case-mate fits perfectly and looks best! i like how the sides are angled for a perfect fit, e.g., fits the One XL's angled sides like a glove. the obvious downside is the limited protection, e.g., exposed top and bottom.
i sold both ROCK cases to a friend who has the International X and kept the case-mate. i added a couple of pics that (hopefully) show how slim and form-fitting the case-mate case is...
im going with the amzer tpu luxe arigle case had it with captivate and like it and did its job and looks good

I liked the case for the whole 5 seconds it lasted me
Funny part is that I was planning on spray painting it black cos that case only comes in orange/blue. And while i was taking the case off it snapped on me. Good thing is AT&T warranties out accessories for a whole year. I have a feeling im going to be using that warranty a lot.
You get what you ask for looking for a slim case. They don't offer any protection at all. Which for me is fine. I just don't like how hot the phone gets without a case. I ended up getting the full body zagg.

i broke my orange version of this case too. if you like to swap out cases every other day (like me) this case may not be for you because you will eventually break it, no doubt about it. i've been luckier with my blue case as it hasn't snapped on me yet.
Just ordered an Amzer Shellster case found here:
http://www.amazon.com/Amzer-AMZ9380...PA1Y/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1338902558&sr=8-1
It's not the most "minimalist" case out there but it seems sturdy enough for repeated application and removal (which is important to me since I use multiple cases). It also comes with a holster, which most slim cases do not. It also looks like it offers great protection for the camera.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kMdD2Q35_XA
I'll put up some pics and do a "mini-review" if anyone is interested.
So the case-mate barely there doesn't specify on amazon whether its for the international or att version. However I have heard that it fits ours just fine. Can anyone verify?
And also does it come with a screen protector?
Sent from my HTC One X using XDA
Received my Amzer Shellster yesterday. I can confirm that it fits the AT&T version of the HOX.
Pros
Accurate Fit
Cutouts line up perfectly
Protects camera
Front lip keeps screen from touching when face down
Comes with a holster
Cons
Minamilistic case means it provides less protection than traditional cases
Does not cover top and bottom
Soft touch finish can be a little slippery
While the holster uses "pressure" to hold the phone it does not have an actual mechanism to secure it
Overall, the case is really nice for what it's meant to do. It is advertised as a slim case and it provides all the protection that it entails.
I have included some pics in the attachments showing the cutouts and fit, as well as the holster and front lip.
I got the case mate barely there. Overall I really like it, I wish it was a little thicker because the camera still sticks out a little.

We don't recommend the Ultra Thin Air with the AT&T version as this case was originally designed for the international version. The AT&T version of the phone is slightly longer. While the case my be compatible, it may not be a perfect fit."

http://www.amazon.com/iPhone-Retail...-9&keywords=KaysCase+Slim+Soft+Gel+Cover+Case
Here's a review that is relevant for us from the iPhone variant. The price is just a dollar now with 4 dollars for shipping.
"The seller was one of the first to offer an iPhone 5 case, a full week before the iPhone 5 launch. They ran a promotion for about 85% off their regular price, and they promised launch-day delivery (Sep. 21), which I was very skeptical about. However, lo-and-behold, a few hours after UPS dropped off my iPhone 5, USPS had delivered my KaysCase"
I'm pretty excited about this!!
Very nice, its a shame about the 17th as the release date though. I will probably get the soft and hard cases.
This looks pretty good. I really want one as soon as I get my phone though and ordering this to the UK will take some time.

Anyone gotten the frosted clear one? I can read on amazon that it's getting good reviews...but I'm curious if it really it soft and if you can see the back's design through the frosted clear. Also, if the words "kay case" is really on it (one review says it is one doesn't). Curious.

I have the black version. It's a decent case. The Diztronic (I have the matte back black one) is a little better. The Diztronic is a little more solid, has a tighter fit, and the the cutouts are a little more precise.

I have a case for my Ipod touch that has 2 parts. You sort of stretch this rubber case over and then a hard plastic fits over that. It really provides amazing drop protection because the rubber absorbs the shock and the plastic absorbs the impact.
For now I have ordered a few really cheap tpu cases but I am hoping for one of these. I will serif I can find the manufacturer of these hard soft cases and I will exit this post. These would really be the way to go if possible.

I received my smoke KayCase a few days ago. It's a nice looking case but trying to press the power button is a nightmare. I've considered using a razor blade or xacto knife to cut the case away from the power button as someone else said they did in the Amazon comments but my craft skills are nearly non-existent. I've written to them using Amazon's feedback mechanism so we'll see what happens.
In the meantime I've ordered the Diztronic and should have it Wednesday.
how slippery is the back of this case? I want a gel case that will not easily slide on a table/flat surface.

LG Nexus 4 Incipio Feather

Not sure if this has been posted elsewhere but I noticed that Incipio is now selling the feather 'Ultra Thin Snap-On Case' for the Nexus 4: http://www.incipio.com/cases/smartp...s-4-cases/lg-google-nexus-4-feather-case.html
I think they are too late to the game, if you ask me. There are too many case manufacturers offering the same hard shell snap on cases, and they all look the same. The only possible benefit of the feather case is that comes in more vibrant colours. However, at a price of $24.99, I can't see why someone would purchase this over the $9.99 Ringke Slim...
I also found a video review in case any of you are interested: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-gThV8Ie6Rc
I went with the poetic slim case from amazon. It was cheaper than the Ringke Slim and has a little coverage on the top and bottom (unlike the Ringke and the Incipio).
$25 is too much imo

I do and works great for me.
When I first got my phone, the first case I checked out was the Incipio feather. Saw it online and said to myself, "like hey that one looks good". I wanted to see it in person first so I found it at a Fido store. I tried it on my phone but didn't like it. The sides didn't come up all the way on the phone if I remember correctly. Some slim cases have a bit of a lip on side of the phones incase you want to rest it front face down and I found the top and bottom too open. Then again all slim cases generally look the same anyways. Ended up get the Rearth Ringke fusion but I found that kinda bulky a bit. I got the first batch when it came out and those had problems with the buttons being to hard to press. Using the OEM LG bumper now.

OEM LG Bumper does crack on the USB port.. happened to me without ever dropping the phone / case.
For the Rearth case, simply use a knife and do the cut outs. Mines is the first version and the buttons feel great. Google on the cut outs. It was posted on reddit and its somewhere on XDA (probably main Fusion thread)

It probably will, just be careful. Google will at most.... refund you but it can be a painful process

Ordered Oh So Orange, need recommendations on clear cases

I love the look of this phone, and have always used a case, so I'm interested in your thoughts on clear cases.
I've seen my dad use them and it seems like they can get quite dirty between the phone and the case. I don't know if I'll like the feel of the hard plastic case that you get.
I did also get the cheaper insurance through Verizon that only covers replacement and only $20 glass repair, so I may just go caseless.
Spigen Ultra Hybrid in clear.
I ordered the SunRemex from Amazon with built in screen protector. I don't know if it makes a difference, but only 1 cut out for the front speaker. Not even the camera. . Wonder if it will mess with motion sense.
I would highly recommend the Caseology clear case. It's $10 with the Amazon coupon and I've used this on many past phones but currently have it on my Not Pink 3XL. I'm receiving it today along with my 4XL to make sure and show off the coloring. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07X7JWC3V/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07Y1S4FXG/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 I used this on my 3XL and it hasn't yellowed and it held up quite well. Very pleased with the purchase and the black would accent the orange quite nicely.

Just picked up this one from Amazon:

Getting it in the mail today. I can share my thoughts once I get it. I usually go caseless and use a pop socket but it won't stick to the back because of the finish. Plus I still want to use wireless charging so I can just remove the case every night. I bought a pop socket mount for my car a few weeks ago so I'd like to continue using that as well.
This one has a built in screen protector that sucks... I snatched it out the case and used a TGSP, now I absolutely love it!

I have the Spigen Ultra Hybrid, it's great so far.
Caseology Skyfall. Phone looks more orange than usual because of the warm lighting.

currently looking at two the ESR Case and the Caseology skyfall. Like the grippyness of the the ESR on the sides. The skyfall is a little bit more bulky and takes a bit of effort to take off after. not sure which one I like more.
ESR is in this thread with coupon codes

The Skyfall is on the bulky side but it does get easier to take off after a few tries. I take it off from the bottom first then peel off the rest easily.

I can tell you that the ESR Mimic is a great case.
I had ordered the ESR Mimic, the essential zero and the Spigen Liquid Crystal and ultimately kept the Mimic and returned the others.
The Mimic is slim, has the tpu bumper for grippiness and the glass back looks and feels great.
I got it with the above codes and before they raised the price a little so I paid approx. $14, which is a steal.
I know it'll yellow eventually with the tpu bumper, but I'll enjoy it until then. I've already got the google fabric case, which is bulkier but feels and looks great too. And, whenever rhinoshield gets their act together, I'm all over their bumper case.
Have been wanting to see this on a device. Using a fabric case myself, but this will likely be the next.

best one!!!
Spiegen Liquid Crystal Clear. Looks glorious. Usually go with Rinke Fusion but glad I switched
I have the spigen ultra hybrid and the ESR essentially zero case. Both are great depending upon how much protection you feel comfortable with. While the ESR feels great and fits great, I feel better with the additional thickness of the spigen. But they are both great as far as clear cases go.

Yep. I'm still very much enjoying my esr mimic. Really nice case and as I said above, I also used the discount code.
I just yesterday ordered the Totallee thin case (also with nice discount) in my pursuit for a super slim case. Should have it Monday and I'm thinking I'll like it after reading some reviews. And I'm still waiting for the rhinoshield bumper case.

How's this case working out for you? I've been through a couple of clear cases so far but not completely satisfied yet and came across the TORRAS as well so I'm curious how it actually is.
I have the Spigen liquid crystal on right now, but the excessive branding along the edges is pushing me towards another case and I believe one of the ESR clear cases is the same way. Does the TORRAS have a lot of branding and text along the edges? I don't understand why they put all that on clear cases to begin with.

I'm liking it so far. I remove it every night to charge it wirelessly and it's not a problem. It doesn't add too much bulk and you can still see the design of the phone. There is absolutely no branding on the sides. The edges around the front aren't huge and don't bother me one bit. You can still easily call up the assistant with gestures.
