I received this case a few days ago, this is the first Poetic case I've owned. I have heard positive things about them and decided to give them a try.
This case is really nice, feels good in my hand and most importantly the volume/power buttons have a nice solid feel to them. You know when you press them unlike some other TPU cases I've had.
The cut outs on the bottom are spot on and the edges are nice and smoothed.
Only issue I had was the bottom left corner. As you can see in the pics, it didn't seem to fit the corner of the phone properly. It could have just been due to the fact that I have a full body protector on the phone and that was not allowing the case to seat properly. Either way it doesn't hinder the usefulness of the case in any way.
For those looking for a clear TPU style case with solid rocker buttons and a really good feel and protection, I definitely recommend this case.

Phone is perfectly fine, look again and you can see the actual screen above the case.
Yes, really. I highly recommend this case.
The "goober creature" you see if you had any reading compression, is because of the full body skin I have.

not sure about that model but the only i had for my old himalaya had plastic all over
I have this case for my trinity and it doesn't protect the screen
The one you might be looking for is also found at e-bay. It is a silicon case that has a hard cover screen to protect the phone screen.
See here : http://cgi.ebay.nl/Capdase-Silicone...tcZphotoQQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
I myself bought the aluminum case. Good thing is that I can use the phone while the screen stays protected. Big downside however is that the aluminum case completely blocks the GPS signal. Bummer.
I still look for a crystal clear case that has a flip to open screen protection like the silicon one.
Personally I find the silicon version look like you just put your phone in a condomn.
The shop where I bought the phone from said that leather cases also block about 60% of the GPS signals.
those crystal screens are not hard at all..
I've gone through 2 of it.. most of the time it crack from where the bottom is due to weekly removal of the top to clear all the dust.
Personally I've always been a fan of having my phone in a belt pouch instead of in my pocket. With the size of the Nexus 4 and the large plates of glass on both sides I'm seriously afraid of breaking it in my pocket. To that end I've tried two different belt pouches.
First up was a trip to my local BestBuy. Their options were limited so I left with a Eddie Bauer generic large phone case.
This case is definitely built to handle phones that are much thicker than our Nexus 4. The back is also segmented which could allow the closure to adjust to accommodate phones of a range of widths.

The intent is nice, but the result is a case that feels like the phone could fall out easily as the closure is opened.
Needless to say I did return that case.
Next up was the Luxmo LU8HBK. This is advertised as a case for the Galaxy S3 which happens to be just around the same size as the Nexus 4. The fit here is MUCH better. While the closure is a bigger flap than I'm used to, the phone fits securely while still being easy to remove. It looks like this pouch will accomodate a thin case such as the Rearth Ringke. I have one on order but its still in transit.
I had a hunch the Luxmo would fit better, and at $5ea (at the time I ordered) I figured it best to get two.
Thanks OP. I have the same worry about my pocket as you. I read water meters and, as such, squat and kneel a lot.
Ordered my Nexus 4 on the 13th. Still waiting.
Bought this screen protector off eBay, the only cheap matte one I could find. Don't fancy paying £10+ to mess it up.
The top quality Japan PET material is imported from Japan : high transparent material and frosted material. Transparency:99%, Anti-Scratch, Anti-Dust.

Some photos of it fitted, as you can see the edges don't stick down very well.

The case if anyone is interested,
You can't really tell from the images but it does make the text soft and it has a hazy effect like you'd find on a old touchscreen computer. I do like the matte finish as it also doesn't show greasy marks as much.
Overall the cost of £2.39 for 6 I can't complain and it will hold me over until I find a better replacement. I don't want to post the eBay link up but you should be able to easily find it.
This has been my experience with 95% of the matte screen protectors I've tried. The *only* one I've been happy with was an SGP one on my Droid X.
Which case is that you're using?
You're going to have problems with your phones proximity sensor because from the pictures above, the screen protector is covering it.. I would suggest you cut a hole on the top left corner of the protector before application..
With this current setup, your phone screen will not come on whenever you receive a call...
Woah, that looks really nice! I just wish matte protectors didn't ruin the clarity.
Hi all,
Around 2 weeks ago I found the following cover on the internet. It was only $2,40 so I decided to buy it and try it out. I was kinda skeptical to the quality since it was so cheap, but honestly the quality is rather good! I have been using it for a day now and I have to say, for a case this cheap it feels great. It's nice to have in your hands, I personally like the design. Also it has quite a rubbery feel which feels nice in your hands and also helps it laying on slippery surfaces. Also it is flexible, not too much though. I feel like it will definitely protect my phone if I might drop it or anything like that. The only thing I don't like too much is that the hard buttons are also covered by the cover. However this is not that a big deal, they still function nicely.
Here are some pictures of the cover itself.

Here is one of the cover used on the phone
If any of you guys would like to order this here you have a direct link to the cover:http://dx.com/p/protective-soft-tpu-back-cover-case-for-samsung-galaxy-s4-i9500-transparent-201232
This link is for the transparent one I am using, they also have it in black if you prefer that. So if you are looking for a cheap, but good quality cover for your phone I would definitely recommend this one! Also the ordering process is quick, and delivery to Holland only took around 10 days. You also don't have to pay shipping fees so you have a cover for only $2,40. Worth a try right?
For anyone worrying it says GT-I9500, this also fits on the GT-I9505 version since the phones are exactly the same in size etc.
So I had just gotten the slim armor case today (dodger blue). My first thoughts when I opened the package was "wow is blue, really nice blue". The overall feel is absolutely amazing. I haven't ever held a phone with a case with so much comfort. Its lightweight and seems to offer a great deal amount of protection with the least amount of bulk. Also they are nice enough to add free home button colors to go with it black, orange, and white.
The look of it is outstanding. every hole was cut out with perfection and not rough edges or color misplacement. The buttons are,as others said, a bit tough to press, but not discouraging as they are comfortable and wont allow for the "accidental" presses.
The one downside that I have noticed is when taking it off and putting it on that sometimes the lips catch and you have to pull on the little rubber to get it flush. But that is the only current issue I have.
I know the review is small right now but I just got it and have only used it for 4 hours so more will be reviewed when I use it more.

The major problem is that I have anker batteries that are a tiny bit thicker but the blue shell pushes out a little when I have them in :/
