"Hybrid TPU" case that shows the back of the phone....

I had this case for my Vibrant and loved it. I was excited to see that it is available for the Sensation so I thought I would pass it along. I love the look of the back of the phone so it is a shame to hide it with a case.... This one is the best of both worlds.

Wow...perfect! I have a TPU case from Amazon and I love it, but this case looks to be way better cause it shows the back of the phone! Thanks!!!!

That's a neat case! I've never seen one like that before. So I was reading from the link... The back is hard plastic right? Wouldn't that eventually show marks on the back, or no? Since you've owned this case before, were there any signs of rubbing from the case or did it ever leave marks?

Nope... I have had the case on the Vibrant for months and it hasn't damaged the phone. My wife is still using it and the case still looks great. Here is the huge thread on the Vibrant forums titled "Officially the best case in the WORLD". Hyperbole aside, it is a good case.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=772826
I can't speak to this one (yet) but the one for the Vibrant fits great and held up well without messing up the phone.

That looks good & shows off the Sensation well!

Nice! Thanks man. I had it on my Vibrant too and I loved it. Getting this one, for sure

I'm getting this one....

I bought a similar case that looked to be somewhat clear but when it arrived it was way more opaque than it showed to be in the picture. When you receive it let us know how it looks.

I think this case looks awesome. I don't wanna be cheap but are there any like this on eBay for like 4 bucks.? I checked and don't think there are so ill just order this one.
Anyone have one already for sensation and could confirm if the fit is good?

I checked out eBay but they haven't made it there in mass just yet. There is at least one seller that has them but it works out to about the same price as the original link in this thread when you add shipping.

Hi guy! Stop spamming this forum with products that you probably sell yourself. Its not funny anymore. You keep on linkin to the same ebay seller. I wish moderators would see this!

So I gotta decide bewteen the white or black one. What to do...
I think ill do black cause I kinda dislike how the white clashes the black on the front of phone while the black one makes it seem all as one and flow together.
That's how it looked on my hd2 that is with a white case.

The back plastic is hard (not foldable).

I ended up just getting the one from tpu-cases . The reviews are great and its just under nine bucks shipped.
The ones in the op have the case covering the power button and I just rather it be open. If they were I'd probably get them since I know someone who has one and she's more then happy with it.

I might as well wait for the official bumper to be on sale again until the end of the month since the Poetic one won't ship till then.

Actually, I think the Poetic one has more appeal thanks to price, not availibility If I wanted to spend $20 to protect my phone, Id rather get a full case. $5 to offer small protection while still showing off the beautiful back is two thumbs up and a customer
(Keep in mind I also bought xtremeguard screen protector+skin so I am fully protected)

To each his own, I agree the Google one looks better (that metal-like design is very nice), but the Poetic one still has some flare

I ordered one but will ordered the official when it becomes official. $6 is negligible.

I'm really surprised no one had had a bumper case out yet since there are a ton of cases. I think I'll try it for 5 bucks.

I was going to order one just to see, but then I noticed the in-stock date. Ehh, maybe I'll wait to see if Google's offering comes back in stock before then.

I'll be purchasing both.

"Google" branded desktop stand for Nexus 4

I just spent 3 days at an annual client conference with our Google support team. Every year the Google reps bring cool swag for us to give away. This year they had these branded phone/tablet stands. As you'd probably guess they went like hot cakes but I made sure to snag a couple before the crowds had their pick. The design is extremely simple but works perfectly. One of the Google reps and myself spent some of our down time trying to see how much weight these things could handle. We were surprised to see how well it held up with 10lb objects.
It works perfectly with every phone we tried as well as the Nexus 7 and an iPad. I never thought I'd use a desktop stand but this works so well that I'll definitely use it at the office.
Anyway, here are some pics...

Oh, and for the record, even the Google reps were jealous that I got my hands on a Nexus 4. So feel special because this go around even the Google employees didn't get one. :highfive:

Cool. A drag that it's not available to everyone.

They were actually surprised when I told them that people would probably pay for these. I told them they should throw them up on the Google Play Store but they didn't think there would be any real demand.

That's nice me like

I totally want one of these!

Tons of companies were giving out this at CES. Obviously with a different brand name on it. There's a couple different ones, this style white/blue with the triangle style folding, also there's a more simple gray/black one that the stand rotates 360 onto itself so it's flat, I got that one.
I'm sure you can find these dang cheap on eBay.

Not to pooh pooh the excitement but these stands are pretty standard giveaways in the promotional swag world. I've got one myself but not "branded" with Google on it.

It's funny you should mention that. I was at a party a couple of weeks ago and this guy there was telling me he works at Google doing some Android stuff, so I pull out my phone. Then we head a super geek moment, talking Android and the Nexus 4, and he was saying how pretty much nobody at Google that he knows has the Nexus 4 and he has only seen his supervisor with one.

$10 Flip Case for Nexus 4 - Awesome for Price

Got myself a $10 Flip Case for Nexus 4, worth for money
I got two, one black and another white, the white one comes with a magnetic lock to keep hold of opening flip.
I found them much better as compared to bumpers, its light weight and gives much protection.
Although I wished for something like Samsung Note case, where one can replace the back panel and the panel has flip with it. None the less as of now this is doing good job for me

Looks a lot like a Nillkin case
Sent from my Nexus 7

Few questions about this.
1. How ridgid is the cover, like is it capable of supporting the phone to stand up 1.1) vertically 1.2) horizontally. That is if the actual case doesn't just slide on a smooth-ish surface. Like the samsung official case for s3/note2 are capable of such things quite easily.
2. (Might be too early to tell) How is the case after some wear and tear as I have a nilkin case (fresh series) and the quality isn't great, typical for chinese brands to be honest. The boundary starts to flake and come away and that's after 3ish weeks.
3. How does the overall feel of it feel like. Care to direct us to some reviews or even create one yourself on youtube?

Correct me if I'm wrong... But don't magnets on a case **** up the GPS and/or radio of a cell phone?

Yeah, emergencies can't arrive out of nowhere or anything. Nobody knows what the OP is even doing, or if he intentionally left you guys hanging or not. Maybe his computer blew up? House fire? Work? I know if any of those happened, checking a thread I made about a cheap case wouldn't even cross my mind...
Give the person some time, or.. go track it down yourself. You have a picture of the case, and a price. Get to searching

Err...perhaps it's you that should be doing the searching. In case you missed it, I already pointed out that he has been active on the XDA forum as recent as today (posting and not just observing for that matter) so I think we safely rule out a blown up computer or a house fire. The OP's absence definitely feels intentional.
Look, I'm not saying that he's obligated to respond to our queries but it's only common courtesy to help out. If you don't appreciate that, then perhaps you don't understand the meaning of community.
And FYI, some kind and helpful users here have pointed to possible cases but note the bold word here, possible. We will never if this is the exact same model as the OP's which makes a difference in someone's purchasing decision (certainly mine).

I had UAG on my:

It just doesn't seem right not using a UAG case! They're ideal!
