Spigen won't be making any cases or accessories for the Nexus 6P. I hope this changes, maybe if we email them enough and generate interest they will change their mind.
Spigen decided to make a nice line up so far of their cases!
Here is the breakdown of their accessories so far:
-Rugged Armour (Black)
-Slim Fit (SF Black)
-Ultra Hybrid (Crystal Clear)
-Crystal film (plastic screen protector)
-Glass.tR Slim (temprered glass screen protector)
-NeoHybrid EX (Silver, gunmetal)
Their loss.

Well accoridng to their email they aren't. They have the 5x cases up already
Darn, I really like their matte black thin cases. Hopefully ringke comes around with those then, I would think they will.
Edit: Well never mind. I contacted ringke and they said they had no plans, but may consider it.
I just tweeted them. I really need a tempered glass screen protector. I've dropped my Nexus 5 and had the protector crack, but the screen underneath hasn't. I _really_ need their protector.

That's true I bought a Verus, 2 of the Google knes and some random TPU one. If they don't want my money I know many other people that do.
I love the Nillkin frosted cases. Using them on my OPO and OPT.

PC, I never liked tpu cases for some reason. The Nillkin frosted cases don't offer 360 protection though but I like the grip and that it protects the back so I can lay it down on surfaces.
Their loss. No worries, China case makers will gladly step in.
My guess is that these companies have to redesign their "series" cases to adapt accordingly to the black bar on the phone.
I really do hope Spigen, Ringke reconsiders and if we want it to happen then we should make some noise on their social medias to let them know that we're interested.
Diztronic might be making a case for the Nexus 6P. https://twitter.com/Diztronic/status/648967216998711297 -- always was a fan of their TPU cases on prior phones.

I don't use twitter buy I'll make one to help promote interest in these cases. I think people underestimated the popularity of the 6P
I also created a poll on G+ just search for Pilz XDA I don't know how to share the poll in a link from my phone. I'll try to post it here when I get home
Attempt 3 here's the link to the poll: https://plus.google.com/116793113910673645093/posts/hugK6fuvB14

Hey guys I ordered my N4 about some time ago and it's gonna be here soon. Meanwhile i was going through the accessories thread and i found many cases here but I'm unable to decide on what to get. Need your help.
Firstly, should i get a full case with a front screen guard or a bumper with front and back protection? I really want to show off the back of my phone but then i don't want to screw it up either so i need your help in deciding for a case combo that will offer good protection. I really don't want flip cases or pouches so that's out of the question now. I've found a few i like and if anyone is using any of them currently, a small review will be appreciated! Here are the ones i liked

I bought XO skins for the front and Xtreme guards for the back.
Also bought Poetic Atmostphere for more protection.
And bought the Ringke Slim and Nillkin cases for a slim and good feeling/looking case.
So IMO, I recommend those.
you think you could edit out the code tags?

no trouble at all. im just lazy but no doubt you will get more responses if peeps can just click.
edit: i got a thing for the robot and i am not ashamed to admit it.
what i would like to see in a case is a way to allow for the sound to come out. my att gs2 speaker is slightly curved to allow for it to bounce. everything i see does nothing but smother that which is already smothered. i think i am going to do nothing more than stick a couple of milimeter wide and tall lumps on the bottom corners and call it good.
I bought the Ringke White Slim Case and I love it! It looks awesome and feels awesome. I also just purchased 3 full body xtreme guards. Total was 6 bucks! So i recommend those! :good:
All of them!!! lol
I got BSE, x-line case(i think), a Rearth case, and a Poetic bumper case but I know I will be getting the official bumper and hopefully a curved screen protector from SGP in the future to replace the front BSE if they make one. Same goes for the SGP Bumpers too. I'll be posting pics of Rearth and BSE soon. Someone should make a thread with a first post containing only user submitted pictures of accessories.

I actually didn't like the look of the atmospheric case. It's just the matter of personal preference although! Let me know about the xtremeguard when you can i heard they have orange peel effect which is why i'm undermining them.

Looking forward to it. Does BSE have cutouts for proximity sensor? Which is better BSE or Xtremeguard? Considering either and which is better among diztronic and rearth?
Xtreme guards are pretty good. But you can tell the quality difference with that and XO skins. XO feels much more premium and smoother. And little to no orange peel effect. So I would suggest XO over Xtreme if you don't mind paying a couple more bucks.

Wait it out if you don't like what you see.
I'm waiting for tech21's Impact Band Cases to come out for the Nexus 4. They replied to a PM on Facebook, and on their official facebook page, that cases for the Nexus 4 are coming, and check it out for yourself, those cases will be better than anything out so far; a good amount of protection from drops, and a detachable clear backplate for showing off the backs of our phones. Here's a link to their Impact Band for the iPhone 5.
I've been using the Ringke Slim as a stopgap for the time being and while it's very good for the $10 total that it cost, I've been wanting to show off the beautiful design of the phone and it's a shame to lose that with the cases out now. The best of both worlds will hopefully be here soon! If you guys agree, pester them on Facebook and their customer service so that they know we're waiting!
Here are pics of the Black Rearth case, its really thin but pretty hard. If your looking for drop protection get something else. On a scale of 1 to 10 for protection with 1 being no case and 10 being something like Otterbox, I give it a 3 almost a 4. I'll be using it for now until I get adjusted to holding this bigger phone but I can imagine myself taking it off soon.
Here is my post on BSE screen protectors as well.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=35194441&postcount=408
Poetic Atmosphere or Diztronic. If you're looking for a slim hard case, I'd go Nillkin
I wanted an otterbox commuter but since that wasn't possible, I just ordered a diztronic. My wife got one for my vivid and the quality and fit our perfect and it adds a much needed grip to the phone and adequate protection without sacrificing the phones good looks.

Yeah from the pics I would go with Diztronic. Rearth didn't cause the protector to peel but it did cause these two small creases on the bottom back BSE that are slowly going away. In the inside pic you can see two lines that go from the top edge to the bottom. That's what caused it.
Oh yeah, my BSE doesn't have a cutout for the proximity sensor but it works just fine.

Looks ok, probably awful protection for the front. You definitely need a screen protector with that. But yea let me know how it is.

I am also a Diztronic customer. Used them on my phones for the past few upgrades. I contacted their customer service and they said sometime in November. Delayed because of issues with multiple phone models on the note 4.
In the meantime I ordered the Spigen. It is okay but not as thin and smooth on the edges like my past few Diztronic tpu cases. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00MAWRQR6/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

That case looks as big as the body glove I have on my note 4 and its no good. My headphone jack doesnt fit, I have to pull the case out at the headphone jack to plug in my headphones.
Was waiting for Diztronic TPU cases, but they never released anything.
I think your best bet is to use Ringke
The Diztronic is reviewed here.
The same poster then reviews a Body Glove -Satin, which cut outs...
I like the look and I appreciate cutouts on the Body Glove, as sometimes cases get in the way of the USB charging port.
But it seems the Diztronic might be a tad smaller.
I really which the reviewer would have made some comparative comments.
If anyone has either of these -feed back would be appreciated.

Guys, I am a massive clumsy git!
Had/have an S5 currently in a spigen tough armor that I've needed to re-screen once in past 2 years.
I'm VERY nervous about destroying the lovely 6P that'll be winging its way to me in a week or so...
Is the Spigen offering the most productive? I saw a drop test for the iphone 6 + and it was damn impressive!!

I'm a little out of touch, so is there a better more protective case available for this 5.7 inch beauty?

I don't have any experience with either the Crash Guard or Spigen cases, but I've watched several tests of the Crash Guard and they sold me on their product. I'll be getting it when it becomes available. I'm still up in the air regarding a screen protector, however. I've always had tempered glass and really like them, but after watching the Rhinoshield videos of their screen protector, it's gotten a little more difficult to make a decision. Here is a link to their product page for anyone who hasn't seen the torture they can take.
http://www.evolutivelabs.com/pages/rhinoshield
In particular, check out the ball peen hammer and ball bearing drop test vids:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2i1bVTJioGE
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jQY04Ohqoz0
I'm definitely buying the bumper from evolutive labs. I like bumpers, but the videos have really sold me onto the product. I'm unsure about the glass/screen protector. Again, the rhino shield videos look very impressive, but I haven't heard enough about it. People use tempered glass often enough and don't complain either.
Spigen is where I will get my tempered glass if I do decide to purchase it instead of the Rhino shield though.
The Rhino shield glass cover has me sold, need to find eviews on how it feels in action!

I would probably throw the Supcase Unicorn Beetle Pro into the mix as well. The regular Unicorn Beetle is damn tough too. Evolutive Labs has confirmed a Crash Guard Bumper for the 6P, but not a PlayProof case.
is the playproof case stronger/more protective than the bumper case do you think?
i ahve my unit arrived and have barely taken it outta the dam box!!

Never had a problem with any of Supcase's cases.
To be totally honest, all you would really need is the standard Unicorn Beetle case (Not the Pro) and a tempered glass screen protector... Nothing more. It's seriously THAT good. I work in the oilfield and this combination has saved my phone so many times... even times where I thought it was doomed and the tempered glass broke. You could literally drop your phone's screen on a rock from 5ft and it would only break the tempered glass protector. The actual screen will be fine.

Me too other than a lack of a belt clip. That is the missing piece to all the cases out there. How do you carry the phone? Until I get my leather holster or a belt clip/case, I've been putting my 6P in my front pocket. Works for work slacks, but not for jeans.

I usually just put it in my pocket. For me, belt clips have always been more annoying than anything especially when sitting and standing repeatedly. I wear jeans and don't have an issue. I'm guessing you may be smaller than me or at least have smaller pockets lol.
Can some one edicts me as ro why a tempered glass would be superior to the rhino shield?
That rhino shield seems amazing

Rhino Shield's videos don't show comparisons to other forms of protection so it's hard to know the difference without testing it yourself. I've personally never used a rhino shield so I cannot say, but there are things we should consider.
1. Is it better than a standard tempered glass protector?
If yes, by how much?
2. How does it feel?
3. After all this, is the difference, if any, worth the cost and/or really needed?
I can only say, from experience, that a standard tempered glass protector has done it's job at protecting my device... even in some extreme conditions. It has never failed me. With this in mind, and if the Rhino Shield is much better, why should you need it if latter is proven to be good enough. Again, this has been from my experience. The only time I could see the Rhino Shield winning, if it is truly better, is at excessive drop distances, but does that ever really happen?

Haha, yeah I've got about 5-7 inches on you. What kinds of cases have you used in the past? These Supcase cases don't stick to cloth material like Otterbox has been notorious for.

They work differently. Glass breaks to dissipate energy while the multi layered plastic supposedly reflect some of the energy back. Both help spread the energy across the surface. Not an expert. But a lot of people like glass because the glass ones maintain the same FEEL on the screen while the Plastic ones have a more mushy feel.

Otterbox defender mostly. I love my 6P and think the design is pretty to look at, but slippery as all get out in my hand. I like the Beetle but wish it had a belt clip with it. I bought a leather holster made for an iPhone 6s Plus and hope it will fit the 6P with the basic Beetle on it.

Yeah, that's your problem. Those Otterboxes use like a rubber material that can be very clingy. I don't think you'll have any issues with the standard Supcase case, but the Pro model does come with its own clip so you may consider that one too. Only downside is it's a little bulkier and it hides the beauty of the device whereas the regular model kinda accents its beauty.
You also make a really good point about the glass vs rhino shield. The rhino shield won't break because it's not glass, but the tempered glass will. There are many manufacturers that provide lifetime warranties on their glass protectors though so you could essentially buy 2 for the price of the rhino shield and get one replaced if it breaks while your backup protector takes over. That would probably be the best way IMO... I just don't trust or like the feel of anything other than glass, personally.
Thx all for the great info... amazing insights. What tempered glass system would you endorse?
Do they stick on the screen or are they part of the case? Sorry for being dumb, as I said am out of touch!
Hey all! I am almost ready to buy the Mate 9 and I was would like to know if anyone has it in black color along with the UAG case.
Design-wise, the case itself seems to be a little over the top for my taste but since it's semi-transparent I was wondering if the black color of the phone tones it down a bit.
Any feedback is welcome (maybe along with some photos if anyone actually has the combination? )!

Thank you very much for your reply! It is as I hoped it would be, more stealthy and sleek!
If I may ask, is this the case you are actually using with the phone or another one?

I actually use just 2. I switch between the UAG one and the Spigen one. The Spigen one is a lot thinner but the UAG is good too. Gets more attention. Lol

I have read mixed reviews about the Spigen case, some say it's great, others that it's flimsy. What's really weird though is the fact that there is no case for the Mate 9 on the official Spigen site! I think I will go with the UAG case, it's a big and quite expensive phone to risk dropping it...

It is strange. I never saw it on their site either. I got mine on Amazon.... Unless it's a fake lol. Heres a pic of the Spigen. I actually like it a lot. I don't find it that flimsy though but I guess everyone has different preference. The Spigen definitely gives it the Blackout look
I use the UAG it is realy nice.
How raised is the lip around the screen?

On the UAG, it's much higher which makes it much more protected than the Spigen. The Spigen also has a lip but not as high. Still good though. I do notice the Spigen has a lot more room for the screen protector edges than the UAG one which gets a lot closer.

It does look stealthy and I really like that they went with 3 cutouts on the back rather than 1 big one.

You mentioned the screen protector and I was going to ask you about your personal preference. From what I read in other threads, there are 3 main products that people use and are generally satisfied:
1) Brotect Airglass
2) Supershieldz Tempered Glass
3) Nillkin Tempered Glass
Any other suggestion?

Actually, I wish I knew too. I still have the original screen protector on when I got my Mate 9. I've wanted to move to Tempered Glass but never knew which one to get. If u do find one, keep me posted too
I recommend that one.I am really satisfied with that one.

Well, since I am probably going with the UAG which has more protection, I will first check the Brotect Airglass which is thinner (and hopefully less likely to peel along the UAG case?). If I decide to go with Spigen or Ringke (I like the Ink Black), I will problably check the Tempered Glass options.

The pzoz screen protectors are pretty good as well. Cheap to at about 3 bucks a piece.
Hey,
Just ordered a screen protector, and letting you guys know they already have oneplus6 products.
https://rhinoshield.io/pages/shop/OnePlus?device=oneplus-6
I'm thrilled!
Rhinoshield case looks awesome on the picture.
Yeah but only the RhinoShield Impact Protection Screen Protector, rest if for either July or August.
Which screen protector is the one to go for, as they offer two types ?

I ordered the impact protection ones. I personally liked how they hit it with a hammer several times, and it didn' break

From the pics it looks like it leaves some uncovered estate near the edge of the screen. Is it?
That'd drive me mad (I know, I'm a nerd!).

Impact protection is a film but not a rubbery one. Doesnt 'self heal' more prone to scratches than glass but does offer some drop and impact protection. It is also smaller and will leave a gap around the edge. The tempered glass is like a regular TGSP, probably quite like the Orzly.
I didnt order a screen because I am happy with what I have (official TGSP and Orzly) I did order a white solidsuit though.

Which screen protector are you currently then Official or Orzly ?
Was installation relatively hassle free ?
Will it fit pretty much perfectly with the white solid suit ?

I was using the official one which I liked and was fine with but installation was bit tricky. I wasn't 100% happy so switched to Orzly which is marginally smaller but separately an easier install and feels slightly better (and you get more than 2 for price of 1 official). Orzly will fit with Solidsuit I am confident of that. Both Rhinoshield screens work with their Solidsuit. Not sure about the official TGSP fitting with the Solidsuit. The official bumpers and cases do, as I have some of those, but otterbox (which I do not have) doesn't appear to.

I already have the nylon case from OP, i like it a lot. So...probably i'm sticking with it
I can't choose... Rhinoshield SolidSuit work 2k.... or the nylon case 1.5k+nilkin tg 400 = 1.9k.... or the spigen rugged armor case 900+nilkin 400 = 1.3k.... what to choose? nvm the price... but if you can choose the worth the buck or depends on protection from drops, usage, grip or anything. pls help i need advise what to choose.
Your thoughts in terms of:
Protection:
Grip:
Design:
TG fitting:
Price:
Thanks!!!!
Haa anyone tried the impact protection for the OnePlus 6 yet?
Curious to know this as well ^^^
Mine (impact protection)arrived at my country already, maybe i'll get it by monday. Ill post pictures as soon as i install it guys
Amazing that there's not a single bumper case (not the official one, which is only called bumper but is a full case) for OP6. And this one is gonna be available in a month+.
