New Affinity case by Poetic - Galaxy S6 Edge+ Accessories

OK here it is . After 1 week of using the clear poetic affinity case I must say it has held up better than I thought it would. My daily case was the UAG clear case so I could show off the beautiful gold glass on the back of my phone. The poetic affinity offers very similar protection but feels much less bulky. The clear plastic is wrapped in a hard black tpu that runs around the bezel of the phone and covers a section of the back. All of the ports are easy to access however their is no opening for the noise cancelling mic at the top of the phone. ( Could just be because it is a test model ). I feel the case provides a good amount of protection and I like all of the options for design and style they offer on amazon. The buttons are easy to feel and don't stick out really far. If I were to buy one for my self I would stay away from the clear affinity only because of the fingerprints it picks up. I am way too ocd for prints all over my case. I prefer a clear textured for fingerprint prevention. All in all I would say this case provides protection and a nice look in a less bulky package than the UAG case and the Poetic Affinity is half the price. I would rate this case an 9 out of 10. I must say the case looked fantastic with a skin on my phone. I would definitely consider this a go to case if you are in the market.

Hey, can you get some photos with your phone in it? Front and back, if possible?

Sure , I will take them in a few hours and upload them.

@Intub8 thank you for starting this thread.. I have the case as well.. It's a nice feel in hand..and keeps the phone slim.. I personally would like the front top and bottom to cover a little more since I can see a hairline of my phone bezel but that's my OCD. And having AT&T phone the back on my phone looks too busy..

Yea AT&T and that silly death star. I know this pic is off topic and I got rid of the skin before I took a pic with the new case but I would imagine the skin would still look good.

I got a test product of this case last week and it quickly became one of my favorites! Feels really good in the hand.

I am also using the Affinity case by Poetic. Very nice case but because of its highly smooth shiny gloss construction it does show every tiny mark. I had just fitted it and cleaned it with a proper spectacle cleaning cloth and even that made minute marks on that lovely finished high gloss plastic. Superb looking and shows off very well the beauty of this magnificent mobile.

A fast review of my Resin Skin Case

I ordered this on Feb 12 and got it today Feb 16, would of probably been faster if it wasn't for the weekend and Presidents day.
Unlike my first of the same color with checkered marks, this one is clear and smoke colored, Fitment is fine, putting it on for the first time was a tight fit but it will give you the peace of mind that once its ON, its ON forever and this sucker isnt going anywhere. Fitment is perfect and all holes line up. What I like most about this is that it extends over the Camera lens unlike the previous one in which there was no protection at all.
I like it and will be ordering from these guys in the future.
www.googlenexusoneaccessories.com for $12.99, price might be a little high but I am very satisfied.
Not a bad price for a perfect fit & good protection!
Is this actually a crystal case? if so then I think it's a little too steep on the price.
But it does have an acrylic / rubbery look to it compared to a normal crystal case, but then again, also the pictures are quite blurry.

No its not a crystal case. Its a silicon resin case thats somewhat elastic. Yeah those pics are blurry but thats the best I can do for now since I used my G1 to take the shots.

Just looked at the invoice and its listed as :
NEXUS ONE CANDY SKIN CASE - TRANSPARENT SMOKE
you will not regret buying this.
How does the feel of the case compare to the Checkered/Argyle smoke case? That's the case I have right now, and I would definitely be interested in upgrading if the material feels the same.
Ordered yesterday and awaiting ship notification.
Does this still work if you put it in the dock?
Just ordered. Waiting for shipping conf. I got the clear candy one. I like the look of the N1 so if I can show it off as much as possible great.
I am getting this mostly for the grip and feel. Though it is nice it will protect it.

No it will not work on a dock, if you have no plans of using a dock then this is the way to do. I dont think that there are any cases out there that will work with the Nexus dock.
Would the case block the camera lens?
The case does not block the camera lens. There is a small opening over the center of the glass lens so while the lens is protected from most scratches I haven't seen any effect on pictures (thought I haven't taken many). One thing i noticed though is that the small opening seems to attract dust which is hard to wipe off. A can of compressed air solves that problem though.
Think I might just order this one, using the checkered case right now and would love the cover for the camera lens.
BTW, there's a 15% off coupon for this website. Just use the code "nexus15". (w/o quotes).
Makes the total $11.04.
Is this better then the crystal cases?
How much thickness does this add to the phone? I am interested in some protection for my nexus, but don't want to double its thickness like many of the rubber cases do.
Just received the case. Here are the goods:
Fits perfectly
Protects the camera without ruining pictures
Flexible rubbery plastic provides good protection
And the bad:
Couldn't get it to fit properly with my phantomskinz
Harder to get the charger to plug in (inserted at slight angle)
Overall it's very good. It'll protect against most falls but you'll still need a screen protector. It fit over my phantomskinz snuggly but the skin and the case kept rubbing and sticking together making it difficult to install properly (some of the alignment was off) so I opted to remove the back parts of my skin - now it fits perfectly.
-And the bad:
---Harder to get the charger to plug in (inserted at slight angle)
I can confirm this. Nothing a little exacto work couldn't fix though
It looks so good, does it fit to the phone?

Imak Ultra Slim Flip Case Review

http://www.ebay.ca/itm/IMAK-Genuine...ll_Phone_PDA_Cases&hash=item35c4060221&_uhb=1
http://www.aliexpress.com/wholesale?SearchText=IMAK+nexus+4&catId=0&initiative_id=SB_20130701083452
Aside from the hilariously bad English on the back of the front cover it looks really good. I ended up buying one today, will see what happens when it comes. Basically it's a VERY slim flip cover that doesn't even use a standard hard shell. It uses some sort of sticky thing from the looks of it.
Go to ebay for pics. Has a lot of pics of the product there.
--------------------------------
Edit:
Got it today:
http://imgur.com/a/Krorg
Pros:
Glue is strong, if you remove it the glue doesn't stick to the phone.
It's slim as they say.
The cover feels pretty nice.
Magnet keeps case closed
Doesn't add much weight (178g with case on (nexus 4 official weight is 139g) and a back screen protector)
Cons:
If you keep removing the phone from the case the glue bubbles a bit (like it doesn't look flat like out of the box. It's still sticky though.
If you lineup the camera/speaker at the back the speaker cutout at the front doesn't lineup properly.
Bad translated English on the back of the flip cover.
All in all, I'd say it's a pretty good case if you don't care about side production and don't need the speaker thingy at the front. Since it's pretty slim it not really a hassle to just open the cover up and talk on the phone that way.
Edit: Managed to line it up halfway where I can use the speaker port on the front and not block the camera or speaker.
Edit: I tested the stand functions of this case. One works, the other does not.
http://i.imgur.com/KULYvS7.jpg
Top right and bottom right works, the top left just slides down.
http://i.imgur.com/20ObViMh.jpg
White balance in that pic is terrible. The background is actually white and the cover (inside) is gray.
Edit:
Updated Ebay link as with another listing as the old one has expired.
Looks pretty nice for a flip cover. No edge protection for drops, but scratch protection seems fine.
Bookmarked to see what an actual owner thinks of it.

It's saying that the half with flip connected to it, is not connecting to the phone, so you could use it as a stand.

It's like rubbery with a leather like texture (I think they are calling it "snake skin leather" or something?). It doesn't really feed bad. It adds nice grip to the phone and it's not rough to hold.

The king of ultra slim cases is actually NOT Spigen as I initially thought... RINGKE!

So as many of you waiting for your pre-orders last week I went ahead and looked for an ultra slim case for everyday use. Spigen seemed to be a household name and went ahead and bought their Ultra Fit for $10:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00I3ULRZG
I was satisfied with it, matte white, fit perfect and snug, protected the back camera and sensors when placed on a table, nothing to complain about. I had thrown out the screen cover because the cut outs were not precise at all, in fact there was no cut out for the upper sensors, only for the home button. Why would i ruin front camera quality with the screen protector over it? yuck.
I then came across Ringke Slim. I have never heard of them before but judging by their high number of reviews, it seemed that they were well versed as well in the case game. at this time i also wanted to get an electric blue case because i got tired of plain white super quick. Also, the screen protector actually had the PERFECT cut out for all sensors and front camera. This was super impressive to me and I gladly put it on even though I don't care much for screen covers in general. This is what i ordered for $9 including shipping:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00IPKHP64
Well i received it today and WOW it was made of a far superior plastic. It wasn't because it was thicker but it felt very different. it felt more denser, less paper like. i compared tapping each and the Spigen was very "airy" felt cheap and very "hollow" (best way i could describe it). The sides were completely covered as opposed open which isn't a bad thing but it did feel more complete as a case. Cut outs were perfect as well and charging hasn't been a problem. I quickly realized the Spigen case is actually not as great as I thought now that I had something to really compare it to. I started seeing on the Spigen where the plastic was punched out of the mold (check picture).
Anyways enough talk here's the pictures:
http://dl-1.va.us.xda-developers.co....jpg?key=nBsLK_haY5suFrjdcOa0hA&ts=1397604778
And the gallery plus the Spigen white case for comparison. Notice the inside of the Spigen, wasn't even spray painted completely most likely because they used a clamp to spin it while spraying

As you can tell Ringke > Spigen in the affordable ultra slim case category.

Agreed, i bought both through amazon, and while i didnt care to use any of the screen protectors the Ringke is MUCH better and really sleek looking. Material kind of feels like the back of the phone and even looks like the back. Only downside is i hate trying to get the freaking waterproof flap out at night! Grrrr
I too have this case and am liking it.
It is hard to hook your fingernail to get the charging flap open although I assume most cases will be similar.
Ok...I'll jump aboard. I bought two cases before I got the S5 in my hands. One was the Ringke and the other was the Spigen Tough Armor.
While the Tough Armor is a very solid case and looks great, it makes the S5 feel like a brick in my hands. On the other hand, the Ringke Slim has a similar texture and gripability as the S5 naked. It doesn't even feel like the device has a case on it at all.
Nice! Defo would give Spigen a run for its money! Great to see competition here and there. At the end, we, the consumers, would benefit on it. More options, right?
Yea I just orderd 2 new Ringke cases. Ill post em up when they comr in tomorrow

I got this case delivered today.. It is AWESOME and for 5 bucks it was a steal.. I crumbled up the useless screen protector and threw it out
I should have gotten white though, because my phone is white and I got the blue color. It kind of looks funny.. I thought blue and white would look good.
It doesn't

I like the case. It feels good in your hand when you hold the phone.
One thing though, on my case the lip around the chrome front trim sides covers more than the lip on the top and bottom. At first I thought I didn't snap it in all the way but it seems like that's just the way it is? Is that how it fits for the rest of you that already have the case?

That's how they all are. Actually I really like this design. It's almost as if its spring loaded, its smaller than our phone, it doesn't just fit like a glove, its actually too small. But the cut outs on the top and bottom allow the plastic to "flex" basically its as if its gripping the hell out of phone, holding into place.
The Spigen hybrid I had for my GS4 was awesome looking, but broke all the time (plastic by the bottom) in anycase, this one is just as nice IMO.
Doesn't add much thickness at all, but will save it from a drop and the camera while on a desk.
If anyone is wondering, I just dunked my phone for 30 minutes with this case. So it doesn't effect the IP68(yea, I said 8, because this thing is pretty much water PROOF) rating.

i can only say i've had to take the case off and on many times to show off to my friends how thin the actual phone is. i mastered how to take it off by pressing outwards the top left corner. you push it out enough so you can fit a finger through and i just slide it down the side and the whole case pops off. this is the easiest way i found. at first i had a problem because i didn't try a corner but started from the middle of the long side. but to answer your question, no scratches.

I'm 100% sure they are fake. Look at the feedback page, it's full of "Excellent!" and "good quality" multiple times by the same few user accounts.

Poetic Affinity Case Review

Hello All
I just received the Poetic Affinity Case for the Moto X Pure in the mail and wanted to do a review.
The case is dual material clear see thru tpu with hardened plastic black bumpers. It's perfect for the Moto X Pure because you can still show off your personally designed backing/color because its clear see through, while providing plenty of protection.
The fit is firm, but does not add too much bulk. The bumpers on this case are the perfect combination of grip with ribbed edges along with specific corner drop protection.
Ports and cut outs fit just right. The one thing I specifically look for in a case is to see if the power and volume buttons are too hard too push. This is NOT a problem with the Poetic Affinity Case. The buttons are probably the best iv seen on any case iv ever owned.
Branding wise, There's a small Poetic emblem in the very middle right below the Moto X camera dimple cut out, 'POETIC' very small on the bottom edge, and the words 'AFFINITY' a bit bigger on the side edge. Not overkill at all, however.
This was the first Poetic product iv owned and to be honest, Of the 4 cases I have for this current phone, plain and simple, its the best.
Here's the link if you want to check it out.

Would you mind posting some pictures of the phone in the case, or just the case?
Love mine but after time it's turning yellowish as most clear cases ...

Just got one based on your review and I'm pretty happy with it. I hope it really protects the phone when I eventually drop it. I got the all-clear one, I like to personalize my phone by printing out graphics and attaching them to the back of the phone. This makes it easy and I don't have to worry about the printed graphic wearing because it's under the clear case.

If you go to the Amazon post, there are pictures on there, or there are some reviews on YouTube you could also check out
I just ordered one of these last night myself. $9 on ebay. I'm excited.
Pretty happy with it myself. It's no UAG, but decent protection. The rear side is however very prone to scratching, and after a while looks dull.
I'm happy with mine as well. As mentioned the back does get fine scratches fairly easily but I've dropped mine a few times now with no damage whatsoever.
How well does this case protect the screen during a drop?
My wife had been carrying her MXPE with teh OE bumper but when it broke she just carried it as is, and it finally made her regret that decision.
She likes this one because its clear and allows you to see the color/material she chose when she ordered it.
Thanks Sheetzie for sharing this review of Affinity case!:good:
I was looking for a durable transparent case for my X Style, will now order this soon.

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!

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!

I've been using this with my OP6 with carbon fiber back skin. The sides are black and have grips and the back is totally clear and the fit is perfect.

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:

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.
