Are the volume and camera buttons totally uncovered? I have a case that I bought with the phone that has grooved covered buttons; the volume button is nearly nonfunctional; the camera button is worse.

yes they are, but it could do with a bit more access to the buttons

I didnt have an issue with the camera button, but yes the volume buttons were harder to access. Didn't notice much issue accessing the power/fingerprint button.

I just got the Orzly Flexislim case. I love it a lot because it looks like the phone is naked.
It is really thin, and the Black Smoke color one, is roughly the same color as the so called "Black" Z5C (which in reality is more grey than black). The only protection this case will give you is light scratches from keys\coins in pocket or placing phone on table\cupholder\w.e . It won't protect against a drop. It is actually slightly more "slippier" than the naked phone, but not by much.

I've decided to go completely naked
By the power of Sony Xperia Z5 Compact

Hello!! I'm between a bumper and a full case...I tend to drop the phone a lot and I have the impression that bumpers won't work...but since I never used one I wanted to ask the experts
I'm between the orly and this full case which it's going to provide a nice protection but looks like it's going to make the phone bigger...I don't know :
Sony Xperia Z5 Compact Case, INNOVAA Smart Grid Defender Armor Case
What would you recommend?
Thank!!

I have the Sony SCR44 case.
Good:
It works as advertised, with a small app on the windows, were you can check email, calendar, control music.
Quality material.
Bad:
Not magnetic, keeps opening.
Window gets dirty very easily.
The fit does not look secure, you can take out the phone too easily.

I got a Nillkin hard case, sold here under a different name.
Quite frankly I prefer the phone with this case on it. It's that good. Everything is cut out and shaped perfectly, plus it has a wonderful texture on the back.

I've just picked it up too and agree completely. Do you have a constant alert on the main widget saying you have receieved a message? I haven't, but it wants me to think I have. I'm using Google's Messenger as my default SMS app so think that may be related...
EDIT: Scrap that. I added the Sony Clock 2 widget and moved it to the far right position, then removed the default widget. I don't get the weather update any more, but it's good enough.

Naked is best ... until you break a 700$ phone. Happenend to me. I'm using a tempered glass screen-protector and a very nice transparent backplate now. Won't save it from a fall on concrete but at least it's less slippery and i can put it down without scratching the back.

Happened to me too. But I still won't use a case or protector
Scratches are for me a total non-issue and slipperiness can be addressed by a vinyl back without increasing the phones size.
I find it silly to pay $$$ for design and thinness and then put it in a case. But preferences differ.

Thank you
I have the white one and I went with the clear case

Just got my Nillkin case.
One word, fabulous. Very, very good.
I got the brown one, to match my black(?) Z5c, and it matches very well!

Looks like a great case, but the seller on Amazon didn't ship to Sweden :/ And I can't find any other who sell the same case, you said that it's really a Nillkin case, do you know the full name?

I think you'll have to await for Devil Case to come up with the goods for this. Going by my z3c experience it took over 6months from the phones availability for the case to become available (albeit not in its masses.)
DevilCase Sony Xperia Z3/Z3 Compact Aluminum Alloy Protective Bumper (Sony Z3 Compact, Black) by DevilCase http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00SUWYDSK/ref=cm_sw_r_other_udp_awd_3J4gwb9Z7EXYR
(Mind you its not rounded as such, edgy, but hands down most superior protection amongst all competitors in this category.)
For now, the Fusion Orzly @hispanico mentions above is the nicest for the limited choice you have currently. I tried this on my z3c.. Offers great protection and prevents the phone slipping drastically compared to the naked device. However I personnaly found it made the device a little too clunky for my liking. But its a great choice offering the best protection for now.
I'd like a TPU bumper, something to add some grip and protection without having to cover the rear of the phone.
If somebody knows about one, please tell me.

I just bought a bumper case off eBay (Sorry can't post links yet). Search for "Aluminum Metal Push-Pull Bumper Frame Hard Case Cover For Sony Xperia Z5 Compact". It's from Hong Kong so there's that. Haven't received it yet so I can't really say how good/bad the case is.

If so,
How is the grip compared to the phone naked? (Never has aluminium bumper before).
And what about the size? Is it slim?
Sent from my E5823
Yes, that's the case. I'll try to update when I get the case. I should get it in the next couple of days.
Definitely agree. Like I mentioned in the other thread, the phone is too slippery. I like to use the phone one handed and have to balance my hand between gripping it tight enough so it doesnt slide (which is fairly tight) and keeping it loose enough that my thumb can reach the left top corner. ust over the past few days, I've noticed some strain on my hand from having to maintain the grip (not too tight, not too loose).
I have the Orzly Fusion. I wonder if I could take off the back plastic some how. It would be good to have some protrusion out the back to protect the back glass too. Ofcourse, this sounds great in my head, but I bet if I try to modify the case it will turn out ugly and ruined.

I have the same case and going to try to remove the plastic back when i get my balolo back skin. if it don't work ill just buy a new one will report back.
Thanks, I look forward to hearing. the issue I see is it will leave too much of a extra hanging over the back due to the thickness of the plastic. Unless you plan to just slice through the bumper to get the back off.

So today i recived the balolo back cover, unfortunately they messed up and made the cut outs for the z3 compact... But i cut of the top part of the cover and applied it anyway. Now to the orzly bumper, i did remove the plastic back and it does fit around the z5 pretty good. The only problem is that it's clearly not made to work just as a bumper cause it is a little bit loose around the edges, so i don't recommend removing the back but it does work
I guess they have a smaller lip in front to keep the phone from falling out the front but dont need one on the back since the backing holds the phone in.

There is a lip at the back as well so it stays on the phone, but the "frame" is a bit too big.

i have that case, it feels alright, but it makes using the fingerprint scanner hard as the bumper causes the scanner to be even more depress and harder for your fingerprint to fit and be scanned easily. the buttons are just attached to the tape/cushion on the bumper and it messes with my already bad reception
also does not have a lip to protect the front of the phone in the event of the phone landing face down

Solutions to slippery Mi4C

Not sure if others concur, but I find the phone very slippery due to the smooth plastic back cover (referring to white version here, though not sure if colour makes a difference).
Other than installing a 'bumper' style cover that makes the phone much larger (and noticeably heavier), what solutions do you suggest?
Can the back cover be replaced with a Nexus 5 style back cover (if available)? Or are there thin stickers that can instill more grip (e.g. sandpaper finish)?
I got the darker version and yeah, the back is kinda slippery. I also looked for backstickers, like what slickwraps and dbrand are offering, but I didn't find anything.
Today I ordered the official xiaomi plastic cases and I'm curious how thick it will make the Mi4C. Maybe still thin enough that I'll keep it...
I have to admit, I am happy I ordered a case with the phone, in my situation, the Nillkin Frosted Shield. Big improvement, but if dbrand had something, I would be happy!

I hope you give a little feedback after you have it thinking of buying the same...
Yea no problem, I ordered one from China but its still not here so ordered this so should be here next week
I did he same as TheNacho. I bought a Nillkin Frosted Shield and I really like it. In my opinion the case is very thin and gives it a good grip, it also feels like a good quality case with perfect fit.
It do also give a small small edge around the screen, which covers the screen a little bit if you put the phone down with the screen downwards (or if you drop it)

I've already forgotten the hardcover Yeah, I had both. The hardcover began pretty fast to crack at the corners (because of the pressure?).
The TPU was a bit more stable, but it began to crack near the headphone jack after a while.
@rob rich got it today (came in 3 days) and its bulkier than the image on ebay. The back is not completely transparent like the rest of the case but a foggish white. But I can grip it easily and thats good for me.
Ok, I'm searching for something really really slim
I'm not afraid of let it fall (never happens to me) but I'm afraid of scratches on the back and on camera lens without case...
I'm sure there are some cool cases in China, so i would be happy if someone could point me in the right direction.

So you're not happy with the Nillkin case you got? I would suggest taking a look at AliExpress or eBay, loads of cases available there and I'm sure you'll find something good.

Case included with phone

So first off loving my 1+6 (8/128). Super fast and just plain awesome! Puts my S8+ in the dust
But my main reason for this post is about the included phone case that came with the phone. I haven't seen anyone mention it on here, so wasn't sure if anyone was aware. But inside the box the the phone is attached to once you unbox it, there is a basic style phone case inside. It's nothing fancy, but it's a case. And it's FREE. I actually like it, and was so glad it was there as I didn't want to wait several days for a case to be ordered and delivered. Granted, I completely bypassed that part of the unboxing as it usually just includes the "paperwork" that nobody reads. But after a day, I was hurting for protection on my phone. Always carefully putting it down somewhere where it wouldn't slide and scratch the backing. Or on something super soft. So, I just so happened to re-open the box and look inside and to my surprise, there was a case.
So, this phone is not only awesome in speed and performance (minus a bit of battery issues at the moment), but they also include a pre-attached screen protector AND a phone case! WOW...hats off to you OnePlus! More OEMs should be taking a page out of your book...ESPECIALLY for the prices we are asked to pay for these "premium" phones.
It's a high quality case and I like it a lot.
I knew about the free case inside the box but I bought other 2 cases from Oneplus, I like the one from the package more.
It doesn't suck, and I'm glad not to have to go naked with a glass phone while I wait for a real case from UAG. Nice gesture from OP, though these TPU cases cost about 50 cents to make.
Compared to other TPU cases ain't bad.
I jsut hate transparent TPU cases, with dust getting between the case and the phone
I really like it for indoor environment, pretty slim, grippy, light weight raised bezels, especially on corners, good quality material and air bags on corners
I don't like it. But I don't like gel cases full stop. They're too sticky for me. I've bought the silicone case though which is amazing.
Indeed, I was glad to see one included, though I did know about it beforehand as it was listed in the "What's inside the box" portion of the web site. I am putting on a rugged case in a couple of weeks but for now am happy my OP6 is protected to some degree.
Uh... They've been including a case since the 5T and have had the even pre applied even protector for quite a while now. And I would suggest getting the nylon bumper case it's much safer and doesn't make the device bulky. Didn't look through the whole box lmao.
Let me share my OP6 experience. I used the included case for a good 3 days and I think it's a decent option. Coming from OnePlus One, I decided to buy the sandstone back case for my OP6 and boy oh boy, it's premium! Although there is compromise with safety as it doesn't wrap up the phone completely but for someone like me who doesn't drop his phone much, this premium case if pure gold! Totally recommended ♥
Edit: Adds zero bulk to the phone, fits like a glove and even covers the camera bump with ease. As I've already mentioned a few times before, it feels and looks premium!
it's a good case, i'd just prefer a black rim because it looks a bit grayish from the front while the back looks grat transparent.
however, it's not only free, it's also decent ?
I have the silk white and when sunlight hits the case the whole surrounded areas of the phone glow a pinkish light. Super cool effect.
Is the camera bump really protected? I've been using the included case for a couple of days and I cannot tell for sure if it does. I really love slim cases as dropping the phone is quite improbable in my case, but getting the camera glass scratched for putting the phone on a table would be a bummer.

My search for the same answer brought me here. It looks like it's flush with the case but it's so close it's hard to tell. The case is thin and grippy and the buttons are easier to press compared to the nylon case. If I knew the camera was protected I would use it as my main case.

Thanks for that info. I guess I won't use this case on a regular.
I prefer cases that are as slim as possible. The phone is big already, and adding even more bulk with a sturdy case makes it even more cumbersome. I'm considering other choices as I don't want the camera to get scratches, but I haven't seen transparent/flexible with enough thickness to guarantee camera protection. OP cases are also compatible with the tempered glass, so I guess I'll have to go with one of the official cases (have an unopened sandstone, but again, I don't know how it fares regarding the camera).

Yep that's indeed the case
Didn't realize it until I checked the box when I selling the 5T. Then I realized I had one with the 6 as well. Definitely great that both a pre-applied protector and a case are included in the box.

I usually protect the lens with Dbrands along with the body of the phone. You can also instead opt for lens glass protectors which can be purchased pretty cheaply.
Where can I buy this case?
Would love to know this as well. I've been thinking of buying the same thing with the same colour and I've never been able to find one

What are the best cases for the red OP6?

Hi all, I bought the red OP6 a couple of weeks ago and have been using the clear case that was included. I have some mixed feelings about it, the positives for me are the raised corners to protect the screen (I just wish they would have done something similar for the camera), all buttons work perfectly and is clear to show off the amazing red color. I just have one negative issue which for me is very annoying, just at the middle in the back it sticks to the phone like if it is wet, which looks very bad, and creates the rainbow effect to the sides. So with this in mind, I am looking for a new case which hopefully doesn't have this issue.
Which would be the most recommended? And if any of you are using them please post some pics, I can´t seem to find any of the red OP6 in a case.
Thanks guys!

Pretty unclear and confusing as their images show the volume switch on the wrong side Also don't think it would do much in the way of protection.

It's not bad at all. There are cases with higher raised edges but the case is pretty nice and does offer decent protection. The Ringke fusion is also a great option.

This case looks good! Yes, I have been eyeing the Ringke, although I have read in several posts that it scratches very easily, is this true? And dothis Orzly scratches as well?

There are little nubs on each corner of the Ringke to prevent it from hitting the desk or table when you put it down which eliminates a lot of the scratching. I used mine for a week and don't see any scratches in it. In the second to last photo the Orzly is on the left and Ringke is on the right. The last photos is the Ringke on the phone.
I have the Ringke clear also *I'm kind of a horder with cases lol* and because of the back being such a hard plastic it has grazes all over it. Dunno if its from being in the pocket with something else or whatever really. Also the cut out for the volume notch is totally off placement. I just can't find one that I'm like wow awesome atm. Although the Spigen case is pretty dam good but I have a dbrand skin on and it isn't a clear case unfortunately as you also would like. Would you consider a bumper case like Rhinoshields? I am awaiting mine to try out.

The Rhinoshield looks similar to the Orzly. I'm also a case hoarder and have 7 cases for the OP6. Every time a new one comes out that looks good I buy it. So far the Orzly is my favorite.
i dont think you should use a case on a red oneplus but no doubt the official red case is nice but my most used case if the nylon case which is so damn perfect... looks nice but also adds lots of grip and protection
Check Ringke Fusion case

Would not recommend it. I bought it, and the back doesn't sit close enough to the phone. At the camera cut-out there is about 1-2mm of space between the back of the case and the phone. If u don't have any skin on it you will scratch the back of your phone from all the dust and partials that can get through it.
Recommend these for the RED OP6. I own the first one.
# Good Quality. Fits well.
# Rubberised in and out.
# No room on the inside to cause scratches.
# Transparent Back.
# Decent lip on the front. Not the best raise, but certainly helps when flipping the phone over without having the screen touch the surface. Might be a problem for phone with a tempered glass. Check comments on Amazon for more info.

Thanks for the feedback, I too heard that the scratches in the Ringke came from evryday use and just having it in your pocket, whic is what worries me.
I do want to try the Rhinoshields bumper, I had one in my iPhone and an S7 and really liked them, but I am not sure how it would look since there is only black or white, and I think it takes away from the red phone aesthetics.
The Supcase might be the one, it looks pretty cool, except maybe for the black bumper. If ti were red or clear it would be a total winner.
Anyone has any experience with the Nillkin Nature Series? It looks nice !

@angelmex check this out might be useful. All clear back cases but with red edges could look cool:

Imo the TPU one looks dam sexy lol

Thats very true, my ringke fusion get all scratchy and I just kept my phone in my pocket. To cover the damage of ringke i covered it with the carbon fibre skin and now it looks more like a bumper from oneplus except for the logo.
nylon case is best as for me

getting mine tomorrow! how does it fare? i usually have a military grade case and as an added security, i stick one of those ring things to hold it with finger securely.
But since it has a nylon back, i cant do that, i hope its really protective since i drop my phone alot :laugh:
i might be getting a clear case in a few weeks, i feel it is cruel to hide this beautiful Red beast.

Cases for the XZ3

Anyone thinking or get a case yet for the XZ3? I was looking towards a thin and transparent case. I got the bordaeux red one, so if anyone could recommend a nice clear case, that'd be great.
i will probably go for the official one, the Style Cover Touch CT70 for Xperia XZ3 but i am waiting for a review. I am really concerned about the strength of the transparent part being glued to the back part. I used to have the original for the compact x. It was super functional and beauty but after a couple of months the transparent cover detached (no hard use). On Monday i will go for something like this
https://gr.mobilefun.com/olixar-sentinel-sony-xperia-xz3-case-and-glass-screen-protector-68745
from a local store (much cheaper) until i find out more about the original, the only descent bordaeux red so far. I got a black phone by the way.
Check this, if you have not already

Lucky mobilefun has a US website.
Anyways, I was looking to get the Olixar clear one, but only the snap on case is available in the US. I might just get the Roxfit case instead, however it's not yet in stock; have to wait a few days. Thanks for these!

I have the ct70 and it's my first cover case... I'm torn because the cover blurs the beautiful screen.
Can't find many in stock options and ringke already told me they won't make one. Spigen were vague so... Waiting for now

That sucks! I was looking forward to Ringke cases. Hopefully skinomi will come out with techskins so I wouldn't have to use a case anymore. I did, however get this case on amazon: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07GNFDXLK/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
It's a nice, slim, and cheap case.

I purchased a glass protector from mobilefun, made the screen really unresponsive. So back to no protection.

hi, does it fit well, and all the ports and holes are well centered?
i bought a cheap the same kind of what you bought and it's terrible... doesn't fit well, and all ports and holes are not well centered!
i want a perfect one, if you can do me a favor take pictures to your phone with that case from all sides PLEASE!
thank you

Yep! It fits well. I ended up buying the Ringke Fusion X case. This case fits better. It's more snug, so hopefully no dust will get underneath the case. The front is raised too so you can place the phone face down. Corners are also well reinforced.
Just get the smart cover

if it was exactly like the one of XZ2 Premium... look how beautiful it is, and also it has 2 color options: clear and smoke black!
Why are there so few cases? And like no screen protectors at all? I got the impression the XZ3 was a public success.
I have the silver model and it's hard to find nice looking defense for it. Idk about the official flip cover, it doesn't look that safe really. And I've like never ever had a flip case, it might turn out being unfit in some circumstances.
I like original Sony Style Case Touch 'SCTH70' with Window and really love it
Happy New 2019 guys
I ordered the official Sony flip case from Amazon.
I posted in another thread... but I hope it works with the full screen protector I ordered. Also, as protection goes, it's hard to tell just how effective it is when dropped.
I got a Roxfit 'made for Xperia' hardshell - protection is fairly minimal tbh but it stops the phone sliding off everything!
