Google Nexus One Pure Crystal Slip?

Anyone used this case? I REALLY don't want to put a case on my Nexus One, but it's also so slim and thin that I am going to drop it eventually.
Silly as it is, I don't want the whole phone covered up, so while the Innocase Surface II looks decent it also covers up the phone.. The Boxwave Pure Crystal Slip doesn't, but I can't find any reviews on it.
Anyone used one of these things? I don't use the dock, although I do use a horizontal belt case so I might have to get one that's slightly bigger as the N1 barely fits in the existing one, but I can deal with that.. That would happen for any case honestly, except for a skin.. I do like Best Skin Ever, but the last two I've bought seem to not be quite as "tacky" as the first few I had, therefore the grip wasn't quite as good. Maybe my imagination..

I bought the Boxwave case off amazon a month ago probably. its a nice case but save your money and buy a resin case from dcmugen on ebay, exact same thing with a different logo. its a nice case though, not too thick and easy to take on and off (I use both docks) so it fits my needs quite well.

Boxwave here. Nice thin and classy. Has rubber feel but not too soft either. It's a pretty good case makes phone look ten times better in my opinion. Is easily recommend it, but I don't use docks, so can't help there. Never the less, happy casing.

DC Mugen FTW. eBay - Epik Case. I got two cases for $8 including shipping and two screen protectors.

Ah, I see.. I still think I prefer the Pure, no patterns on it, but otherwise the same.. Looks like Boxwave has the Cyclone (circle patterns), diamonds, a matte finish, some others..
Still haven't decided on which case.... I've always been disappointed in silicone cases, but I've almost always bought cheap $2 eBay ones..

I went with the Boxwave Pure Crystal Slip, we'll see when it arrives! God knows when, I had two shipping options.. 5-10 days ($2) or 1-3 days ($23!!)
So I'll see in 5-10 days

I got the Clear Pure Crystal Slip yesterday. Here's a quick review:
Overall, I like it and will likely use it when I'm out and about. It gives a much more secure grip on the phone without adding any weight or feeling larger. Although honestly I still think the Nexus One is a little TOO thin and a little slippery. This makes that better.
It feels like a cheap case, it's rubbery and smooth. If your hands are wet or oily it might be MORE slippery, don't know yet. In reality it seems pretty well made, and fits well. The Clear Pure version is crystal clear, no tint, no patterns, and you can clearly see the phone is a Nexus One.
I'm not doing any drop testing, but I think if the phone landed on a corner or an end this case could protect it. It's firm but pliable, not squishy like a silicone case and not a hard case. Primarily I think it'll protect it because it'll be LESS LIKELY to get dropped because the surface is a tackier and more surface area on the sides. I can pick up the phone with two fingers securely now, where before I'd have to tilt the phone up and get fingers under it to pick it up.
If anyone wants pictures I can do that, haven't yet...
Price summary: If it were $15 it'd be a deal. $20 seems too much.
Pros:
You can see see it's a Nexus. Google branding, colors, body build
It's thin, firm, and fits tightly
Covers up the power and volume buttons, but made to fit over them. Maybe a little rain resistance?
Adds better grip, more confidence holding the phone
Does not interfere with any ports (except a little on the power plug, see below)
Does not interfere with any openings (speaker, mics, camera, camera flash)
Does not interfere with the screen, particularly near the edges
Does not obscure the speaker when phone is on its back
Lets you lay the phone down face-down without resting on the trackball
Covers all corners, edges, entire back.
Cons:
It has a molding line all around it.. It's not that visible but you can feel it. Sides aren't smooth
Covers up the power and volume buttons, but made to fit over them. Makes it too easy to hit the buttons, and you can't feel the button very well (to feel it when touching) nor feel the action of the button itself.
Seems to make the stock charger plug (maybe others too) not feel "in", I think there's too much material around the plug
Takes away the nice texture and feel of the Nexus One
Thumb hits the case a little scrolling down on the trackball, but it doesn't make it harder to use
Other notes:
Does not protect the camera lens or the screen at all
Mine was clearly used, fingerprints all over and in the box backwards :/
A slim belt case intended for the N1 is too small to fit with this case
There is a weird cutout to the left of the HTC logo in the case, like maybe a hand strap could go there?

That case does look nice but 20 dollars seems a bit excessive. Look at other Amazon items. I found one for 5 dollars shipped that is pretty similar and doesn't have the hole in the back. http://www.amazon.com/Google-Crysta...X1DSC0SAJ94E&s=generic&qid=1275242975&sr=1-27

I have that case as well as the Crystal Boxwave slip.
The Boxwave one:
- Is clearer obviously (not the "smoked look").
- Fits a good deal tighter.
- Has a full cover for the lip, not the chin strap method of attaching.
- Has Boxwave written across the back.
I actually prefer the patterned one because it's more interesting, both detract from the Nexus, so it might as well add some flavor, right? The Boxwave one is far tighter fitting (and slightly thinner) but neither is going to come off in any kind of normal use. I also own the desktop dock, so I need to take it off on occasion to allow the phone to fit. Both cover all the buttons, so you have to get used to pressing them through the rubber. They also both have that edge around the edge of the case from being molded.
Anywho, just my $0.02

Speaking of 2 cents...there are a lot of auctions for the patterned Nexus One cases for 99 cents. http://stores.ebay.com/Cimo-Cases_G...15QQ_sidZ192097565QQ_trksidZp4634Q2ec0Q2em322 I wish I knew about this before

And those are probably worth at least $1.10...... Sometimes you really have to make a minimal investment to get something useful.

Kommandant vs Spiegen

Hey, everyone!
I've seen video reviews for both cases, but they didn't exactly cover the points that I really wanted to know.
The Kommandant Ultra Thin Aluminium Metal Case (Just Google "Kommandant S4 Case". The link to the case goes straight to Ebay)
OR
The Spigen Neo Hybrid Case Case (http://www.spigen.com/cell-phone/samsung/galaxy-s4-cases/galaxy-s4-case-neo-hybrid.html)
If you have either of these cases, I need to know just a few things:
1. If I lay my phone flat on a table, does the camera lense touch the table? Or does the case come out enough to stop the camera from touching the table? (I don't want the camera lense scratched)
2. When the phone is in the case, how sturdy does it feel? Does the phone wiggle at all if you shake the case a little bit?
3. Does the case feel solid? Does it feel like it could fall apart at any moment? Or does it feel solid and well built?
Please weigh in if at all possible!

I have both cases, so I can answer your questions..
1. Neither case lets the camera lens touch the table.
2. The aluminum case is a lot more sturdier, however sturdiness does not equal drop protection. (Aluminum case would transfer the shock of the drop to the body of the phone and screen, but the TPU in the Neo Hybrid would absorb some of the impact, although not as much as a silicon-poly-carbonate combo case like the Incipio DualPro).....
3. Same thing...neither of the cases will fall apart.
PRO TIP: The Kommandant case from CaseFanatic is actually a slightly remodeled Chinese aluminum case which can be bought from eBay for ~$12-16.. (I also have a aluminum case from eBay for $13, it looks, and feels almost identical to the Kommandant)
Search "Bumper aluminum case galaxy s4" on eBay, you should be able to find some.
By the way, aluminum cases that have a back plate tend to lower your cell, WiFi, GPS reception by about 1 bar, but you could get a aluminum bumper which doesn't affect reception at all.

Spiegen case is great. I don't have or want the other. I did some research on the case before buying, the ones listed on eBay for half price are not real. I bought from the manufacturer got a screen protector for half price.
Lense won't get scratched laying flat on the table. Very well engineered to fit perfectly around the camera and flash.
Case is very snug and buttons are really easy to push. Great phone Jack is small but fits stock head phone fine. But my computer speakers Jack won't fit. Also 3rd pray chargers that are bigger on the end don't fit. Example being my Motorola car charger from a few years ago.
I have dropped my phone several times and the plastic around the phone is jacked up but the phone it's self is perfect. You can buy replacement for 10 on there web site. Or different colors. I have metal red and yellow. Digging the red... I have a white phone.

Galaxy S Relay Cases - Issue with durabillity

There appears to be a limited number of cases for Galaxy S Relay:
Incipio SA-316 Feather
Incipio SA-321/322 Dual Pro
Tmobile D3O
No name brand rubber case (but is actually hard plastic).
I went through the review and it appears that all of them have the same flaw. The front plate attaches to the screen using tabs, which then breaks after several months because it was dropped or bumped. So any case is likely to have this issue?

that's true of pretty much every slider phone case. i had a couple different cheap hard plastic cases on my droid2, droid 4 and now i have one on my relay. for me, having that extra lip on the front face makes it less likely for me to drop it when pulling the phone out of my pocket. and the cases are so cheap, it's no big deal if it breaks. just spend another $3 on amazon/ebay and you're good. or buy 2-3 at a time so you always have a spare on hand.
the shortest time i ever had one last on my droid2 or droid4 was about 6 months, and it was due to a particularly bad drop onto the concrete driveway. but the case did its job perfectly - sacrificed itself to save the phone. if i hadn't had a case, i'd have had a shattered screen for sure. well worth the $3 investment. that said, i only go thru 1-2 cases per phone, and i usually keep my phones about 2 years. i just got my relay a month ago but case construction seems identical to what i had on the d2/d4 - thin tabs to grab the edge of the chassis - so i expect similar performance.

I'm using T-Mobile's OEM cases for the Relay. They are thick and have that rubberized feel to them. They are durable and work just fine. I found a deal on eBay and got two for like $8.00. Not may other choices really.

I quit buying the ones with rubberized fell because they start peeling after a while plus the rubber picks up all kinds of lint and dust from my pocket. Also don't like how it feels on my ear and face during a call.

I originally got the D3O case that was the original Tmobile case. However the seller on ebay sent me a broken product with broken tabs. The texture was also kind of terrible like it had some sort of rubber fizz and it did add quite a bit of bulk. On the plus side, the buttons were covered.
I then got a second case from a vendor everydaysource for $3. This time case fit perfectly and did not have broken tabs. Durability of the case is rather suspected since it appears to be spray painted on rubberized pain, but it's worth $3.

Poetic Affinity Case review

Okay so I am sure a lot of you have received Galaxy Note 7 by now as I am. (T-Mobile user) I would like to update on the case I have with this beast with pictures and hopefully help some of you out there looking for a good case.
I think the blue coral color on this case is beautiful!
Poetic brought their famous Affinity series case for Note 7 in a perfect time for the phone's release and they came back with near-perfect case. Well, the word perfect is very subjective, but if you are like me who is always looking for light, thin, see-through material (to show off the Blue Coral color of my Note 7), sturdy and protecting four corners of the phone, you will absolutely love this. And plus, this time, they fixed two imperfections that I have talked about for a while on this case and I will mention them in the end.
Look - Superb
Honestly, I do not like thick cases where you can't appreciate the thinness of your phone for the sake of phone's protection. To me, phone's design is very important as I have with me all the time and I hate to see the beautiful designs (ex. Galaxy Note series, Iphone series...) to be later covered by ugly bulky cases once you have it. Affinity case makes their case cover very unique and they do it with high quality material. As you can see from the pictures, most of cases are see-through polycarbonate material where you can still enjoy your phone's natural color. From the four corners, they connect each corners with soft shock-proof TPU material that will cover the back of the phone very minimally and with unique pattern that they call X-FORM. I also like their logo with silver color in the middle of back.
Protection - Excellent
Like mentioned above, they covered the four corners with X-FORM soft shock-proof TPU material that feels VERY sturdy. If you think of cheap chinese import TPU material, you will have to see/touch to feel difference. Once you feel/touch it, you won't worry about four corners anymore. Also, TPU material (including strips around back and corners) are scratch proof so you wont see ugly scratches. Most of back is polycarbonate, which is plastic. First, I worried about the back portion being easily scratched due to the nature of its material, but I found out that is not the case. The strips that run through back of the case are actually RAISED so it doesn't get scratched much just like most cases front sides are raised to prevent any normal wear-tear scratches from everyday living.
However, if you happen to carry your phone in an enviornment where lots of sharp materials flying around your phone, you may be better off going with more less-plastic, rigid material of other Poetic product line.
Added feature - Superb
As you can see with my pictures, this case has anti-slip side grip on each sides and this gives me such a relief. I tend to drop phone quite often and not only I need a case with good protection, but also this kind of added feature that will help me not to drop as much. Also rugged TPU strips on the back and corners help a lot as well.
Holes/Cuts - Superb
Their holes/Cuts/Buttons' positions are perfect and I cannot say any better than that. One of the imperfection this case had in the past was a little hard buttons. To me, it seemed like it requires a bit more pressure to press buttons and it was discomfort in the beginning. (You get used to it soon so it doesn't bother much later) However, they fixed it this time and it is breeze and actually fun to press them. They listened to their customers and that is a rare thing in the market. I love it!!!
Taking off the case - Awesome
Last imperfection I probably thought it would have been very hard for any owners with battery changeable phones was taking off the case. I departed from the phones with battery changeable ability a while ago so I did not have to take it off that often so it wasn't a big issue, but nevertheless, when I do need to take it off, it wasn't a pleasant experience. It was too tight to prevent any fall off from dropping your phone.
However, they fixed it, and they did it perfectly. Now, you don't have to put much pressure to take it off one corner to the other. A little bit of force and it comes off easily. It is very good that it holds the phone steadily with you worrying about it falling off on its own, but when it needs to be taken off, it does VERY easily. I seriously recommend to anyone who is looking for a case with thin, see-through, protective, good design and good features, look no further, this is the case for you.

THX for the very thorough review! :good:
I'd held off on pre-ordering this case for the latter,as on the HTC 10,this case was extremely difficult to remove,to the point where you could damage the phone if you're not paying attention,either by bending the phone,cracking the display,or,damaging the camera lens while gripping for case removal.
It was so bad that I actually made relief cuts on each corner,on the diagonal,to facilitate ease of removal.
This in no way compromised the snugness of the case,so,I suspected a design/engineering change was in-store for future versions of the Affinity case.
Glad to hear the changes were made,I just ordered a Clear/Black version for my Black Onyx Note 7.

I feel you 100% as I had HTC 10 with this case as well as LG G5 and it was pain to take it off, especially on HTC 10 as you mentioned. But, it is a night and day difference now.

Is this available for purchase yet? Only place I'm seeing it available is ebay and I'm not sure if those are third party knockoffs or not.

I can assure you, the ones on eBay aren't going to be knockoffs. The design is too intricate to bother with imitating & risking the backlash from buyers. The volume of sales isn't gonna be high enough to warrant anyone to make a knockoff.
Besides, you're protected against fraud/etc. by eBay &/or PayPal.
If you're still not convinced, you can purchase direct from Poetic or go to Amazon.

I've got the same case although my phone hasn't arrived. It's ok imo, the black plastic design on the back protrudes and trends to not feel great in my palm imo but if you don't mind that I guess it's a nice thin case. Well probably rock this until I get a replacement

I also have this case, but I am bit scared to out it on since I fear the hard plastic might scratch my phone on back. I was thinking that there is going to be some sort of cushion or enough place between them. Any comments??

Yeah,use a liquid sealer & a clear/matte body skin (in addition to the Affinity Case) for extra protection,without sacrificing the looks of the phone:

@jkforce
The Poetic Affinity Case for the Note 7 is everything you described/stated in the OP of this thread,so much that I almost regret buying the OEM Samsung Leather Case.
Both have a great feel/look/functionality,but the Poetic shows off the phones good looks & the clear w/black trim on Onyx Black looks as if it shipped from the factory w/the design,akin to a Note7 Active,if you will.
A strong recommend here & @ $7.95 shipped on e-Bay,it's an inexpensive case to add to your rotation.

Case or cover

Availability seems to be low on cases for the Nokia 8 so far.
I'm a cluts so not going to take my 8 out of the house before I get a sturdy case for it.
I saw one article that listed 5 cases but availability seems bad so far.

I bought a lenuo (I guess it's called that) case from ebay and it feels good enough for now. A smart case of some kind would be nice to have though...

I ordered Nokia 8 in Tempered Blue and official Nokia leather flip case in brown color. We will see if it is any good. I will post the pics after weekend.

i got Nokia 8 in polished copper and 2-3 tiny TINY scratches bother me and i am looking for a clear case any ideas?
p.s. anyone that uses cases has issues with the power and volume rocker buttons?

I received oem Nokia Leather case (CP-801)
The quality is top of the line if someone likes this type of covers. I am not a fan for it but it was a gift for family member and I rate the quality 9/10. The only thing it lacks is like magnetic attachment to the screen like ipad cover. Nokai cover is slim, well cut out and really well made. I was a bit skeptical, I am not a fan of leather cases but you will probably not be dissapointed spending 40EUR for this.

I got this case off Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B074347Y6M/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I've always gone for clear bumpers on my phone, rather than opaque or solid cases. This case adds a neat textured pattern over the back of the phone, it blends very nicely with the edge of the screen, and all the buttons/connectors are easy to use. The clearance on the rear mic could be a bit better, now that I look at it, though. There's one spot where I can feel the injection port from the mold, but it doesn't bother me that much and would be easy to smooth out if it did. That link is actually for two pieces, so I have a spare if I need it.

I don't use cases ... No sense in buying beautiful phones and hiding them in cases ... Got transparent full body polyurethane protection installed ... Even makes the phone more grippy

Totally agree with that sentiment. My brother has an SG7 installed in some sort of brick and it looks awful. Enjoy your phone as it was meant to be.

I just ordered the cc801. I find this phone to damn slippery without a case.

Of course it makes perfect sense.
First, not everyone really care about the phone looks. Some people and this may come as a surprise, buy phone to use telephony, messages, audio or video, web browsing.
Second, beatiful phone is meaningles if you can not protect it and scratch it or worse, damage your screen. So much for staring at naked aluminium unibody with cracked screen.

one of the cases which looks to me like it may provide more protection is this following one: (I haven't tried it myself and I don't even have the phone but interested in it so did the research)

I got my Nokia 8 last night and ordered a couple of cases to try out.
This one is incredibly slim, barely a few mm thick and has a slightly raised lip. Not sure how it would handle a fall onto a hard surface, but certainly does not add much bulk whilst still offering some level of protection. It is a hard case - not a gel so a bit tricky to take off. The one thing I really dont like is the ugly J&D logo on the back.
I also got this one - which is more substantial gel case - looks nicer and feels more protective. But then it adds that bit more bulk.
I am a bit butter fingers so whilst I see the argument about not having a case - if I did not have one, my current HTC 10 would have been smashed by now.

HTC 10 is a tank it'd take a sledge hammer to damage it.

Update: In the end I settled on this cheap and cheerful clear gel case. Sent the other two back.
I think it will do the job well, provide reasonable protection without being too bulky - and lets the nice Silver colour of my Nokia 8 shine through.
And when it starts yellowing after while I can just order another - given the low price...
The Official Nokia 8 Soft Touch Case Black - CC-801 - looks great - but currently costing around £25 to £30 - which is over the top for what it is....

:good:- I spotted this also last night. But it was out of stock, but I found one in stock on Amazon UK. Ordered it to check out - as I often find official cases are slimmer / better fit than 3rd party.

Just arrived, two original Nillkin cases for Nokia 8. Paid $15 for both (purchased from AliExpress).
The red color is a bit darker than the tone visible in photo. The official renders from Nillkin also shows the red color to be bright but in reality it is a shade darker.
I have used other cases as well but this is hands down the best back cover for Nokia 8 because of one reason. The case is curved from edges exactly the same way as Nokia 8 is built. The curves start from frontal edges of the case and goes to the backside of case. It is hard to explain in words.
Other back covers make Nokia 8 blocky as they have standard squarish edges. But this one feeks like a second skin for the phone as it preserves original curved design of the phone while being slim, lightweight and sturdy.
I always get Nillkin cases for my phones because their quality is top notch and their attention to details is exceptional. They also have been unbreakable for me so far.

Hello guys is there anyone using this case? Or anything to say about that?
https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B075...er+nokia+8&dpPl=1&dpID=41O0-3xnbqL&ref=plSrch

I always buy Nillkin cases for my phones, but it wasn't available for the Nokia 8 when I needed it. After trying a couple of cheap ones I ended with the an official Nokia 8 cover which is fantastic:

I got leather flip case from stilgut.de. very nice.
