Purchased original in November. Charging port door split into pieces, just got my replacement in the mail last week. Then I had it in my pocket playing music last night and the rubber stopper came completely out. This is just ridiculous. I regret my purchase. Thought I'd share for anyone debating purchase.

I had mine a week before I returned it. I don't make many calls so the ones I make are usually important. Got sick of people saying they couldn't hear me.

Oddly enough I never had that issue, just crappy build quality issues.

Mine is the fre. I believe they both have the same rubber stoppers though. My husband's fre also had the charging port door split into pieces.

Not sure if this will help you but the rubber headset stopper can be reinserted with a needle if you tie thread around the plug and pull it through with the needle. That headset plug is definitely a problem if you intend to carry your phone in tight spaces where something is likely to pull on it; other than that it works fine and does provide the water protection.
Oh yeah we learned that last night. My hubby ripped the first one in half pulling it through but we scavenged the stopper out of the case with the split charger port. It's much more fragile now though, but at least the case is usable once again. I'll just need to make sure I bluetooth music, really limit my headphone usage.
I never was too fond of lifeproof, it just seems too gimmicky. Living on the beach in Miami, I never needed to being a phone in the water (not the typical facebook/Instagram addict or whatever they use nowadays). Not sure why I even need a phone when in the water? Maybe for underwater pictures? Lol
It's just a trend that I'm sure will die out soon. Best bet would be to go after the reputable brands like seido or Otterbox. Thanks for the headsup.

Another thing to keep in mind is that if your case breaks, even though it's related to build quality and not being manhandled.... Is that you must return the defective case back to Lifeproof *at your expense*. Perhaps I've just been spoiled by Amazon and otterbox but for the price of the case you'd think they could not nickel and dime the return process.

Your welcome keep in mind I had a positive experience with my iPhone 5 Lifeproof for a solid year. It was solid and even though I complained about losing that screw 8 million times it was vastly preferable to this new rubber system. I think they cheaped out with the galaxy cases but kept the prices the same.
Had some of the same issues. Deployed a handful of these cases to my group and they were pure trash. The sound quality was so bad one of our executives was on a call and had to jam a pen though the membrane in order to hear and be heard. It became the norm that before you made a call or answered a call you had to open the charging door to at least stand a slight chance of the person on the other end understanding you.
A couple connections from Lifeproof told me that the defect is known about. One has been holding out on upgrading to the S4 because their case is having so many issues. Their products have unfortunately degraded quite a bit over the last couple years.
I got the LifeProof Fre during the Thanksgiving holiday. I returned it about a week later. I don't think it is a very good quality case and the top layer is very flimsy and the plastic distorts the pixels. The rubber earplug is also not as durable as the iPhone version. I think the case was rushed out the door. Mine also started leaking water after about a week. Buyer beware.....

I haven't tried the Otterbox but I had a lot of problems with Seido and returned it.
My son loves his Lifeproof so I hope he doesn't have these issues down the road. I don't need the water resistant feature and am very pleased with my Body Glove case.
2/16 Update, my replacement case has fractured in the same area as the original case. Makes no sense whatsoever why this case can't handle daily use in this particular area. Again, my iPhone 5 Lifeproof case did fine for a whole year, but it was made of more flexible plastics, I'm thinking maybe whatever material they switched to do for the galaxy series is more brittle? Just sent another warranty case to Lifeproof, this is getting ridiculous.
Going to have my N6P shortly and plans to have a nice case to have it get protected,however,most are now focusing on iPhone and Galaxy Mobile covers and get few choice from SGP and Amazon, so here please share your case founding and have fun.
I ordered this generic TPU case http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B015GBA8AE?redirect=true&ref_=ya_st_dp_summary
It says it has shipped already.
I ordered the same but the clear option.
I ordered the MoKo case this afternoon, and it already shipped. Should be here Thursday. Just a placeholder until some nicer cases like Spigen come out.

Ultra Protective Case
I'll be waiting for the second batch of the device, because I want to see reviews, and to avoid any possible quality control issues that might initially exist. With this in mind, I obviously want to protect my investment, what with being a student on a budget. As such, I want to really protect my screen. In fact, just last week I shelled out an unplanned $120 to replace the screen on my S3 i9300, which fell face down in its ZeroLemon battery case. The screen wasn't cracked, but it was damaged in terms of the pixels. It started out with a purple spot, and got progressively worse overnight, to where it was totally black, and unusable. Does anyone know if a Ballistic, Trident, or UAG case will be made available for the 6P? Are there any other ideas as to the type of case I'm looking for, besides those I mentioned?
Thanks!

I sent an email to the manufacture today, I didn't yet get a response. One other buyer on Amazon (via a review) reported he got contacted back by the manufacture, and he pasted an email from them stating the photo is only a prototype. It makes sense as the case won't mail out for a full month. The month delay is OK with me because my phone won't be here before then.

The post shows a reply from the company saying those were pre release mock up images... They should update the images but as long as they don't really cover the LAF no biggie. Especially considering I got to order the case for $2!

I ordered a clear one that needs the opening trimmed (or sent back). I kind of like this one with red accents, looks like the opening is wide enough.

Posted this in another thread here earlier today, but figured I'd put it here since it pertains to the Verus case render:
Just FYI. It looks like Verus has updated the render on their Amazon listing: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B015GHQGM2?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00.
So glad I picked this up for $2 a few days ago.
Got my clear case today: http://www.amazon.com/LK-Scratch-Re...443751243&sr=8-4&keywords=Nexus+6p+clear+case
Looks easy to make a template to cut an opening wide enough. It's crystal clear, may not effect IR anyway.
Edit: Manufactures just sent email. Said to toss what they shipped and will send replacement that doesn't block the laser focus in 2 weeks (before the 6P arrives).

After using a case mate naked tough case on my nexus 6 I was looking at getting a case with a kick stand for media consumption and so far not seen any for the 6p. If anyone has seen one can you let me know.

Do a deeper search than I did and I bet you'll find more. Most of these seem to be the extremely bulky case types, which don't interest me personally. One case I had for the Nexus 6 which had a kickstand but was also slim was the Seidio Surface case. http://www.seidioonline.com/motorola-nexus-6-surface-kickstand-case-garnet-red-p/csr3mtn6k-gr.htm You might want to contact them and see if they plan on making a N6P case. I'll vouch for Seidio - they make pretty good products. I've even deployed them with iPhones at work.

I saw something recently about how a lot of the early cases are blocking important parts of the sensor/antenna bar (the black bar on the back of the phone). Does anyone know how much of the bar needs to be exposed to not impede functionality?
And to the OP, I've had a kickstand case with my last two phones, and last two tablets, and I just can't go back to a device without it now. So thanks for starting this thread.

I have found that many of these are preproduction images, so I wouldn't rely on the current pictures to show me anything more than a rough idea of what the final product will generally look like. Several product images have already changed on Amazon's site.
Wait until the middle / end of October for all the companies to get the products finalized. This forum already has several threads with replies from manufacturers saying designs aren't final. They are just trying to ensure they get their piece of the pie on early and preorder case dollars when they list products this early on Amazon.

Real interested in the i-Blason case since I'm looking for a hybrid case with a kickstand that gives me peace of mind without Nexus protect.
However I emailed them aobut the laser AF problem and got this:
Dear Customer
I cannot guarantee that will not block it. I have not information concerning this problem.
Thank you

Might try again in a few days...
Once Seidio releases their cases the Surface should have a kickstand. Using that case now on my S4 and love it.

A case with a stand will be ultimately what I get.
As I am getting a silver phone rather than a black one, I would really love a crystal clear case with stand! Although I'm sure this will never happen.

Doesn't it make it wobble when flat? Looked cool initially but I think it's a bit weird to carry 24/7 on such a nice phone. And I doubt it last forever if constantly removing it.
Thanks anyway though
I haven't received it yet, but I know that I will be using it as a kickstand, so what's the relevance of "lying flat"? It looks like if you stick it above center, but still out of the way of the Imprint sensor, it should sit on a table/desk at a very convenient angle in either orientation...

I want it immediately also, I do not want anything to happen to it... When I got my S6 Edge+ I put the Otterbox on and while at the store, before it was even activated it got bumped off the counter onto the floor.
I do not like the Otterbox I have on my S6E+ because is it a smooth hard plastic and will on its own slide off of counters and other smooth surfaces... I much prefer the silicon or rubberized cases that grip.

I love the photo cases, like $40, there is a store nearby that sells phone cases, and can "print" onto Otterbox cases, but for either I am not sure how it will hold up... the problem for me with this, is that he charges $30 to print, plus the $60 for the Otterbox, and then the Otterbox has design pattern and their name embossed into the case so the picture may not look as good as on the smooth silicone case in the Play Store. Oh, and they can only print on white, and Otterbox does not have white cases yet for the Pixel.

The phone has shipped but the case is still not available :-/
Google can still learn a few things from Apple. Official iPhone accessories are available and usually ship well before the phone ships.
Has anyone found anything similar outside of Google. I'm paranoid about dropping this thing particularly as I'm in a country where this is not available so will not be able to service in case of a drop.

Amazon is your best bet. I ordered my case a week ago and it should be here tomorrow. Two clear cases for 7$. Can't beat that.
Kind of pissed. I ordered three cases (around the 12th), one of the being the google clear case and they all said in stock. Then i either get emails from the companies saying sorry the case will ship out on the 28th or the arrival day is 28th-1st. Now i have a naked phone from the 20th- and i don't want to **** it up.
Spigen
I ordered the Spigen Rugged Armor from Amazon and it came a few days ago. The phone comes today. I am terrible about dropping things and recently broke my hand, so it is now worse. I prefer no case, but I drop things way too often.
Anyone know how thick the silicone is? I find it very hard to believe its 19mm which would make the case height on both sides 10.4mm which in theory makes the back a 6mm ish case. That would be otterbox big.
The other reason why I think 19mm is incorrect is that it's the same dimensions for the clear case which is noticeably thinner than the live or silicone cases.
