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.

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

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.

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

I found a case with code HC C740 in a shop in my country...ordered after looking on many sites and pictures with that case...I also found an youtube video about this case..received today....WOW!...AWESOME!...superb finish, personally i think that is the nearest finish to the original...I will post some pictures later, when I`ll be at home...I think that is the best and beautifull case for our lovely device.
Edit: I have the black version of OneS.

I just saw it today in the store, it was a black one.
The kickstand didn't feel too sturdy and the case was a bit bulky, however, I thought it added some substance to the phone being it's almost too thin.

Do you mean this one: http://www.clove.co.uk/htc-one-s-hc-v741-hard-shell-with-cover-and-stand-black
It's the one I got with the phone and from the looks of it, it's actually the same hardshell as the C740, but with an added leather cover for the screen which can also be folded over to use as a stand. Excellent quality and really like it. Two niggly things to note with it are you can't have it plugged in while using it as a stand, and as the leather on the outside is facing whatever surface you have it on while using it as a stand, it can slide about quite easily when trying to use the phone on smooth surfaces (to be clear this is when trying to interact with the screen - e.g typing - not while it is just sitting playing a video). Both minor points for me, and I would recommend this case over just the hardshell due to the screen protection and stand function.
tl:dr version
+excellent htc quality
+screen protection
+stand
+doesn't add much bulk
-can't charge while using it as stand
-can move about on smooth surfaces when using as a stand
i think these are the cases that some are looking for, but they don't seem to be available yet.
I saw those original case and the kickstand in a mall in Toronto !!

I bought the Original HTC Clear-Hardcase and Screen Protector yesterday.
For each I paid 11,99€ which is f*n expensive in my opinion, but I think its well worth it to have original accessories on my baby.
( Original ) Screen Protector
I know this is not the thread for this, but I´ll show it anyway
HTC Clear-Hardcase
Both Products are Tripple-A Quality.
The Screen-Protector Package includes 2 "films". If applied correctly you wont every recognize that theres something on the screen ( like on the photo above ).
I also really like the Hardcase, the only problem with this is that its a little slippery on smooth surfaces.
EDIT:
Both Images are a little bit out-of-focus, since I used a 50mm Objective to take those.
I can take new pictures with another one, if requested.
I got the black case the day after I got my phone, around 5 weeks ago. The finish feels very similar to the black phone itself, with the colour matching.
The case is very slim, and you really wouldn't notice it was there. It adds no real extra size to the phone.
My only small issue with the case is that the top and bottom of the phone are exposed still. I'd prefer a little more coverage, but overall, the case is pretty awesome.
looks a LOT like my case
casemate barely there:
http://www.case-mate.com/HTC-One-S-Cases/Case-Mate-HTC-One-S-Barely-There-Cases.asp
very satisfied with it
http://shop.htcpedia.com/htc-one-s-hard-shell-case-hc-c740.html
here is the case being sold for $19.99
this looks like a great case; I placed my pre order today...Anyone have experience with this case?
thanks..

This is great. I accidentally dropped my device while using the STM Cape case and it doesn't protect the bottom corners well. This looks like it will cover it up.

I've pre-ordered from then before. It's a bit like of a hit and miss. Last time they missed their arrival date by two weeks because their shipments of their stock didn't come in on time, but they're very friendly and responsive. They updated me with the next expected date as soon as it was available.

Wow, that looks like it provides great coverage! I guess you have to store the S-Pen separately though (doesn't seem like there is a slot for it)? I also wonder what it will feel like to write on it, regarding both the "touch-sensitive, water-resistant screen-guard" (and how that will feel with the S-Pen) and also with the raised case edges.

people who have gotten this case for other devices suggested that you pop out the screen guard, and use your own, so I have a new Spigen on mine, so I dont want the one that is on the case; plus, I am sure there is a slot for the spen; that would be a major problem if there isnt one...raised case edges are a good thing for putting the tablet face down...

I think it's a fall where you pull it out. It looks like all the ports have it and I think it's to protect openings from dust.

Wow.. this changes the Galaxy Note 8 into completely something else
Very nice. I much prefer non-portfolio style cases due to their immediate accessibility. But I also prefer one with a built-in stand for video viewing and this one seems to be the first one like that for the note that I've come across (and a more premium model at that.) Based on the reviews for other tablets this seems a good possibility. Added to my wishlist and I'll be eagerly checking this forum/thread for a review once it's available.
Otterbox has already said they have no plans for a Note 8.0 case unfortunately. Odd since the Note 8.0 seems to be selling very well (at least according to my local Best Buys) and people who would pay $400 for a premium tablet would seem the most likely to not balk a premium case. I know I wouldn't. Oh well....

This case looks just like what I was after. I got a cheap folio case to start with while I waited to find my ideal case. I like the rased bevel. wanted one like that to help prevent me clicking the capacitive buttons by mistake in landscape mode. The raised home button will also prevent me accidentally pushing that as well. Happens sometimes when playing multiplayer fps games.
I've still not decide if I'll get a screen guard or not. Dont intend on using the one provided though.
Look forward to your feedback. Not available until June 30th in the UK.

I had the same thought too when I first saw the case. I was happy to find out there is no need to store the stylus on the side - there is a slot for it in the case! As for writing on the screen protector, I haven't noticed any difference from writing on the Note 8.0 screen with the stylus. I posted a pic in another response if you're curious to see.

well, got this case yesterday, and I have to say its everything I had hoped for and more; sort of like an otterbox, with a built in stand, which works in portrait and landscape.
HD rubber around the screen edges, fully protect port openings, and even the camera has a flip off protector, which,even has a little "slot" that holds it back when you want to use the camera; very nice high end touches like that, and a very solid feel to it as well.
You insert it inside a plastic bottom frame, then snap the top cover over it, which has a very nice clear protector built into it, which, when used in conjunction with my current Spigen Ultra Clear, provides a fantastic surface to easily use my spen/holder on, giving you the identical feel as if you were writing on a legal pad, with a pen...very nice!
You then wrap the rubber cover around the frame, and after a few minutes of adjusting, you have basically a giant "otterbox" like protected tablet!!
Its probably not for eveyone, but I love holding the tablet in my hand, like a giant G-Note 2, and writing on it and using it now is so much nicer...I think it would easily survive a major fall, but dont ask me to try that!!
Definately more useful, and much better protection than any of these folio/notebook fabric covered cardboard cases that are all over the place..its just a little bulky for those with small hands...
Amazon price was 60% off the price from Poetic, so I would suggest you get if from Amazon if you are interested..

I was wondering if anyone could give the exact size of the case in inches. I am considering a swap to the note 8 from my nexus 7. Size is a concern because I keep it in my flight suit pocket. The Note 8 without a case is the same size in H and W as my nexus 7 with an otterbox installed. I was wondering how much extra size the poetic case adds. Thanks for the help!

Looking at the pictures and video is there any chance of the kick stand brace scratching the back of the note when it's folded? It appears to me metal. I'm close to ordering but I'm also nervous about the addition weight and thickness, how bad is it?
Going to have my N6P shortly and plans to have a nice case to have it get protected,however,most are now focusing on iPhone and Galaxy Mobile covers and get few choice from SGP and Amazon, so here please share your case founding and have fun.
I ordered this generic TPU case http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B015GBA8AE?redirect=true&ref_=ya_st_dp_summary
It says it has shipped already.
I ordered the same but the clear option.
I ordered the MoKo case this afternoon, and it already shipped. Should be here Thursday. Just a placeholder until some nicer cases like Spigen come out.

Ultra Protective Case
I'll be waiting for the second batch of the device, because I want to see reviews, and to avoid any possible quality control issues that might initially exist. With this in mind, I obviously want to protect my investment, what with being a student on a budget. As such, I want to really protect my screen. In fact, just last week I shelled out an unplanned $120 to replace the screen on my S3 i9300, which fell face down in its ZeroLemon battery case. The screen wasn't cracked, but it was damaged in terms of the pixels. It started out with a purple spot, and got progressively worse overnight, to where it was totally black, and unusable. Does anyone know if a Ballistic, Trident, or UAG case will be made available for the 6P? Are there any other ideas as to the type of case I'm looking for, besides those I mentioned?
Thanks!

I sent an email to the manufacture today, I didn't yet get a response. One other buyer on Amazon (via a review) reported he got contacted back by the manufacture, and he pasted an email from them stating the photo is only a prototype. It makes sense as the case won't mail out for a full month. The month delay is OK with me because my phone won't be here before then.

Just FYI. It looks like Verus has updated the render on their Amazon listing: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B015GHQGM2?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00.
So glad I picked this up for $2 a few days ago.
Got my clear case today: http://www.amazon.com/LK-Scratch-Re...443751243&sr=8-4&keywords=Nexus+6p+clear+case
Looks easy to make a template to cut an opening wide enough. It's crystal clear, may not effect IR anyway.
Edit: Manufactures just sent email. Said to toss what they shipped and will send replacement that doesn't block the laser focus in 2 weeks (before the 6P arrives).

I'll be waiting for the second batch of the device, because I want to see reviews, and to avoid any possible quality control issues that might initially exist. With this in mind, I obviously want to protect my investment, what with being a student on a budget. As such, I want to really protect my screen. In fact, just last week I shelled out an unplanned $120 to replace the screen on my S3 i9300, which fell face down in its ZeroLemon battery case. The screen wasn't cracked, but it was damaged in terms of the pixels. It started out with a purple spot, and got progressively worse overnight, to where it was totally black, and unusable. Does anyone know if a Ballistic, Trident, or UAG case will be made available for the 6P? Are there any other ideas as to the type of case I'm looking for, besides those I mentioned?
Thanks!

I emailed UAG already and are not planning on making a case for the 6P.

Anybody find any photos of the Nexus 6p wearing the official cases yet?
I ordered the carbon, would be nice to see how it looks on the device.
My clear case from Amazon. Should be a simple exacto fix once I know how wide to cut. I'm going to love the 6P, only slightly wider than my N5, and who cares how long it is (especially with superior speakers on front!).

Hello!
Jen @ Cover-Up here. We've finally launched our real wood #WoodBack case for the 6P. It's available to pre-order as of today, and is due to ship from 25th January. We've combined a TPU and polycarbonate case with a hand-finished real wood panel, to give the look of real wood with added impact-resistant protection for your phone.
You can find the collection here: http://www.cover-up.com/collections/woodback-google-nexus-6p
Get 15% off your pre-order with "NEXUS6PXDA".
Any questions just shout!
Ordered the Cedar one myself. Anxiously awaiting it!
Ordered Carpathian elm burl. Thanks.

Same here.
What is not clear to me, or depicted as far as I can tell, is how the buttons are handled?
Judging by pictures it looks like the fingerprint cutout is quite narrow, and given the overall thickness of this case it looks like one will have to dive his finger deep into that hole in order to unlock the phone. Can you comment on this?
I would also like to see the buttons as this detail is missing on the pictures.
Other than that the cases look good.
Wow. Too cool! I'm gonna definitely have to get one of these soon. Thanks for the share op!

A wooden and plastic case for the aluminum phone. Now there's a concept.

They're fully covered by the case's TPU edges for extra protection, but still easily pressed. I hope these pictures help, but just shout if not - I can always get our photographer to take some better ones in the studio for you.

We've tested the case thoroughly here and found no problems with the access to the finger print scanner. The sensor itself seems to be so efficient that when holding the phone in front of you the tip of the index finger is more than sufficient to unlock it, and we've found this just as easy to do with the case on as without the case.
As per my previous post, you can see some extra pictures of the buttons here:

Very nice indeed.

Thanks, I can discern the buttons. Maybe one of the "multi angle" shots should include this?

Working on it as we speak @bench_strength Will let you know as soon as the new photos are up on our website.
If you could please post more photos in the hand like you had of the front and back and sides please. Anyway possible to include nexus engraving by custom request? Other companies offer this without posting on their website to go around copyright issues

Ordered a cedar case, and excited to receive it! Don't see many people with wood phone cases out on the street, so I'm glad that you've developed something for this phone.
Like @nexicon I, too, would have liked to have had the Nexus logo engraved by custom request. Toastmade, dbrand, and Slickwraps all offer this option (Toast by custom request) so I'm curious as to whether there's some especially obnoxious, UK-specific law preventing that?

Unfortunately whilst we can't speak for other companies, engraving the Nexus logo onto the case without Google's permission would be enough to constitute an infringement of Google's Nexus trademark and so (for the time being at least) it's not something that we're able to offer, even by custom request.

If you e-mail Carved customer support, you'll hear from them that they have no plans to make a case for the Nexus 6P.
Furthermore, both Carved and Cover-Up have two different versions of their cases: the Slim/Snap series (respectively) and the Traveler/Explorer series (respectively). If you compare the products (for their iPhone 6 lineup) they're literally identical (even down to the design of the rubber surrounding the wood back; I wouldn't even be surprised if they sourced the exact same components and materials). The former happens to be more minimalistic, while the latter offers more protection.
At least Cover-Up decided on making a case for the N6P; they're just only offering it in the Explorer version, since it's more versatile. Personally, I'm glad for this decision because the Slim/Snap series leave the top and bottom edges exposed, meaning less coverage against scratches and drops.
Ya thanks to know

Our #WoodBack cases for 6P are now ready! All pre-orders will ship later on today.
I have uploaded a very quick video of the case here. Please excuse the poor quality of the video, I hope to get our in-house photographer to create something a little better later this week but wanted to give you a sneak peek.
I've also added some extra photos. (This particular case is Bamboo.)
As ever, any questions just shout .
The link you provided directs to an old video of the iPhone 6 and galaxy S6.
The case seems to be as thick as the thickest part of the phone, I guess it's not possible to shape the wood to adhere the the phone's shape?
Is there a gap below the camera where the phone is thinner?

Anyone seen any indication of when these will be available. Just says coming soon on the site.
No idea but should be out by when the phone comes out?

Haha I was thinking the exact same thing! I got the protection plan too... First phone with no camera bump - Woooohoooooo!
I've also only had a Galaxy s3, Note 3, Note 4, Note 5, and now Note 7.
Can't wait to get me some Google goodness! Some complain about the price point, where I say "finally a premium phone rather than 6 month old mid range specs phone .... Oh yeah that offered vanilla Android - which is awesome, but it's still a mid range phone..."
Haha /endrant

Interesting case, but how much is it? I can't see the price but if its 30 quid then I wouldn't get it!
Much rather pay that for their photo cases which i really like and thinking of getting it as an add on gift as buying the phone for the lazy half's birthday. However not sure he'll like it. Torn....
I'm worried that it won't be available until after the phone releases. I really want one, but would prefer to get a case for it immediately.

I want it immediately also, I do not want anything to happen to it... When I got my S6 Edge+ I put the Otterbox on and while at the store, before it was even activated it got bumped off the counter onto the floor.
I do not like the Otterbox I have on my S6E+ because is it a smooth hard plastic and will on its own slide off of counters and other smooth surfaces... I much prefer the silicon or rubberized cases that grip.

I love the photo cases, like $40, there is a store nearby that sells phone cases, and can "print" onto Otterbox cases, but for either I am not sure how it will hold up... the problem for me with this, is that he charges $30 to print, plus the $60 for the Otterbox, and then the Otterbox has design pattern and their name embossed into the case so the picture may not look as good as on the smooth silicone case in the Play Store. Oh, and they can only print on white, and Otterbox does not have white cases yet for the Pixel.

Thanks, I didn't catch that and thought it was a TPU case. I am deciding between this one as it looks thin or a Dbrand Skin instead. I want to get the phone in hand, feel how slippery and/or fragile it feels first. The more naked the better if the phone can take a "whoops"
if only these cases would be freely distributed to first buyers... haha, just like Coby phone.

Still available to order the Clear case from Google in both sizes.
The phone has shipped but the case is still not available :-/
Google can still learn a few things from Apple. Official iPhone accessories are available and usually ship well before the phone ships.
Has anyone found anything similar outside of Google. I'm paranoid about dropping this thing particularly as I'm in a country where this is not available so will not be able to service in case of a drop.

Amazon is your best bet. I ordered my case a week ago and it should be here tomorrow. Two clear cases for 7$. Can't beat that.
Kind of pissed. I ordered three cases (around the 12th), one of the being the google clear case and they all said in stock. Then i either get emails from the companies saying sorry the case will ship out on the 28th or the arrival day is 28th-1st. Now i have a naked phone from the 20th- and i don't want to **** it up.
Spigen
I ordered the Spigen Rugged Armor from Amazon and it came a few days ago. The phone comes today. I am terrible about dropping things and recently broke my hand, so it is now worse. I prefer no case, but I drop things way too often.
Anyone know how thick the silicone is? I find it very hard to believe its 19mm which would make the case height on both sides 10.4mm which in theory makes the back a 6mm ish case. That would be otterbox big.
The other reason why I think 19mm is incorrect is that it's the same dimensions for the clear case which is noticeably thinner than the live or silicone cases.
