Cruzerlite Androidified Cases

Just got my white, clear and black ones in today. Cases fit like a glove. Tighter than any other TPU case I've ever used. Not sure if it's the case or just this phone design. It is very slim and minimal. White on white is perfect for me. It doesn't take away the phones look at all. At a quick glance someone wouldn't even notice there was a case on the phone.
Highly recommended...make sure to order the OneXL version.

Here's the link. Pics will come soon.
That link is just for the white. They have all colors and still have the buy two get one free. $20 for 3 cases shipped.

Just ordered mine today! White, Transparent Teal & Green. I didn't see the clear one on Amazon. Wish I would've got that one.

Where is the clear one for sale at?

But only thing is that the camera lense looks exposed. If you set it down flat on the table, it sits on the lense. Here is comparison between my clear case which protects lense and the one I have which is like this tpu case.

I got my clear from Amazon. I don't think it had the picture though. Found it by name.
To the guy above I do wish the camera lens was protected...maybe a little bit thicker just around that, but I can't say enough how slim the case is and it doesn't add any bulk to it really.

I like slim, thats what I was going for with the casemate barely there case, but without that protection around the lense, it doesn't truly serve its purpose for being a case.

To each his/her own. Since when does protecting the camera define the purpose of a case. That's like saying any case besides a OB Defender doesn't serve a purpose because the screen is exposed.
I like going without a case so having this is better than nothing. I'm not worried about the camera. Pics taken with my phone serve no purpose besides maybe FB.

I went for the "Buy One Get One Free" deal on Amazon and picked up the Black, Clear, and Smoke colors. The Clear looks best to me on my white One X. I usually change cases every other day so the other two are back up

[HTC Sensation]Carbon Fiber Finished

Today i decided to make my sensation a little bit sexier, so i bought some carbon fiber and attached it carefully and patiently :silly: to the back cover's alluminium. It's simple but it requires a lot of time to make it perfect! It took me about 4 hours my fingers are tired and so am i...but in the end it looks so freakin awesome!
these are the only things you will need

before applying the carbon fiber you would better clean the entire surface of the battery cover and then just apply the carbon fiber
to fit it better i've also used a hairdryer to heat it and spread it better
this is the final product you will get
oh, i forgot the hardest part now, when you've finished, you have to create all the holes for the volume bar, front camera, speakers, light sensor and finally the on/off switch
hope you like it

Is that proper carbon fiber, or vinyl wrap?

Looks great! Where did you purchase the carbon fiber? Cost ? Thanks in advance!

I wonder how it would look on that white chrome back cover

it is a carbon fiber film, the 3M by di-noc...i've spent 25 euros for 75x15cm but it doesn't require so much film...you will probably need only 15x15,,,that will be good

looks great
but i like the chrome finish, maybe the elastomere parts should be wrapped to make it more exclusive. i know there are many holes like camera, flash and mircrophone...!

very nice! beautiful, indeed
where can u buy this carbon fiber?

Would this work just as well without the chrome back?

Cruzerlite Persona's for the One S

So I saw these became available over the weekend and had to order them. I got 3 of them. I got the Black & White Abstract (Inverted), Camo Light Green, and Andy Scratched. As I have said in the past, I had this series on my Gnex and that is why I rushed to get these. Let me say again, not disappointed. Highly detailed, great TPU feel (not plasticy like some would think by the looks) and kickass designs. It doesnt have the volume cut out but as I have said before, I actually am happy it isnt. I dont click them on accident with any of my Cruzer Lite cases on. All other cut outs are perfect. Ive become a pro on putting on these cases. FYI, there is a wrong way to put them on. Start from the top and then the bottom right side and then finish up with the bottom left side. This way, all the cutouts match up 100%. I have a crappy cam in bad lighting so the pics are crap. Im sorry. Check out cruzer lites site or amazon for high res ones.
I thought the Andy Scratched was going to be my fav but once I got the camo one up close and noticed there are Andy's hidden in there, its now my fav.

I'm talking about the andy scratched case. Do the green scale looking part feel different to the rest of the case or is it just glossy?

It feels like the rest of the case. The persona line is just fancy designs. They dont add any different feel.

What's the difference between the 'Persona,' 'A2,' and plain TPU cruzerlite cases?
I like the design of the 'Argyle' type, but if it's not as good quality materials I may opt for another.

Persona is their fancy line with all the different designs, the A2 is what got them famous with the Andy in the case design, which also adds to a better grip I think and the plain is just a plain tpu one with no grip. I have the persona and A2 and I have the A2 on my phone 90% of the time.

Nexus 4 Bumpers Confirmed [Back in Stock US 12/11/12]

Google's own Dan Morill has confirmed that "Bumper Cases" will be offered for the Nexus 4. This is the first official accessory that we've heard of after the TouchStone charger.
Dan Morrill 1 hour ago
+Dave Ranucci We've actually got some bumpers (ring-like cases that wrap the side but not the back) coming as accessories for Nexus 4, if that's how you roll.
On the back, there is indeed a small raised ridge, which should prevent scratches if not breaks.

UPDATE: Here's the link and some pictures, available only in black for now for $19.99.
They are back in stock in the US as of 12/11/12 2:15PM EST

Keep in mind this Nexus 4 doesn't have a ridiculous steel frame. Also the back is Gorilla Glass 2.

Nice, I was hoping for this. I love OEM accessories.

Any pictures of what the bands look like?

God I love bumbers on my phones.

cool! I can't wait to see what they look like.. maybe multiple colors?!

As long as they don't add to much bulk around the edges I'll get one. Unless the design on the back is more ostentatious in person, in which case I'll get a case that covers it.

Possible bumper case?
Look at the purple ring like bumper case in the pictures:

Is that really a bumper or is it just the lighting? If the bumper case is indeed that snug then that would be amazing.

That's definitely just lighting.

I definitively want to get a bumper because I love OEM accessories and this phone looks too good to put in a case.

I've never owned bumpers. Do they really protect devices well? As far as I can tell, they leave the front and the back of devices vulnerable to scratches and breaks. But if I'm wrong, please correct me.

They protect the sides and corners and will absorb shock (although not too well) It is a minimalist case, if you are worried about scratches you could invest in front and back screen protectors or have faith in Corning's Gorilla Glass 2.

I think the combination of a screen protector and a bumper will be enough for all but the most paranoid, Gorilla Glass is able to stand up to a lot of punishment.

Bumpers are awesome!
It doesn't add much bulk and protects the device well.

Custom dbrand Install

So I decided to get a little creative with some dBrand skins. Installation came out pretty good. Edges were challenging but manageable if you take your time.
I have the phone in a Spigen liquid crystal case.

Really nice. I always hesitated to get a skin because of the lack of drop protection. Very cool idea putting it inside a transparent case, I think I might go for a similar setup :good:

Appreciated. I do get quite a few "I like your case" comments. I gave up on explaining it's a skin, I just go with thank you now. I'm enjoying it a lot though, the install went well and I like the feel of the case more than the carbon fiber skin.
Post some pics once you decide on your setup.

This is a really nice skin so i'll be doing the black red variant, thanks for sharing this

This is kinda what I'm thinking.

Did you apply the blue (glass) piece over the white vinyl? If so, how's the added thickness feel? I don't believe dbrand has the glass cutout available?
