I bought the clear case. TMobile sells them. Compared to other minimal cases i have had in the past (and one other Amazon case for the note7) it seems better. It hugs the curves ans shape of the device perfectly, and the holes line up EXACTLY which often isn't the 'case' for 3rd party cases. It's also very thin and light and on my silver note7 it's hardly noticeable.

I'm interested in that case but there seems to be no real photos of it. It's the same cg ones you find on all sites.
It's a hard case isn't it, do you have pictures? How much did you pay

its $20ish. Will post pictures when I can figure out how to do so as I sold my Note5 already!!. Its a very soft TPU case.
I have been looking for photos, videos and reviews of this case too but they seem non existent so far. Whatever info you can post would be great.
I've been into slim clear cases for a long time. I'd like to appreciate the body down to its finest lines and curves, caressing its smooth texture, feeling the little tips and points where they sprout along the edges, admiring the beauty that is gleaming in front of me, wanting to grab........ok well you get the point. I risked my phones going naked for these reasons for a long time, but alas, the Note 7 might require a case from me.
Anyways, I would search high and low for thin slim clear cases that would
1) wont produce so much fingerprint smear
2) smooth as buttah
3) wont stick to the glass backing and create a rainbow effect
4) doesnt have sharp lips
5) its flush against the edges.
Now yes, it does attract fingerprints but less so since its soft TPU and I've come to accept the annoyance that comes with using clear cases that its inevitable. Aside from that it meets the rest of my requirements. Not all soft TPU cases are alike. This particular O.E.M clear case feels good in the hands. Soft, smooth (almost like hard plastic), and at times grippy. I unfortunately do not have pictures to show but may post them later. If you are highly interested, I suggest stopping by your local t-mobile store to try it on first. If you like it buy it, if not keep searching. Good luck! :good:
I ordered this case and and I really like it but I'm a fan of slim/minimalistic cases that showcase the design of phones. The material is a soft rubber(?) not a hard shell. It's clear so it does show a lot of fingerprints but it fits the phone perfectly. The case feels tacky/grippy so the phone feels extra secure when you're holding it.

A similarly thin spigen is only $10 bucks.

Thanks for the pictures. I like it.
Got this one as well. Got the Note 7 starter pack from Samsung which contained
TPU case clear
2 pcs screen protector
1 pc tilted wireless charger
Pros: tpu case is very minimal in when it comes to thickness so thats a plus.
Con: it doesnt have raised edges. So if you placed your phone upside down, the screen itself would be touching the table. And worse, if you drop it face down, the screen would take much of the impact
Screen protector:
Pro: its a curved platic screen protector so it wraps on the edges
Con: its thicker than your usual screen protector. Almost as thick as those invisashield ones. The more important negative on this, since it wraps around the whole screen even the edges. When i bought a Spigen Liquid Crystal case (for raised edges). When i slipped it on, it peels the side of the screen protector.
Tilted wireless charger is a tilted wireless charger. Nothing to comment except that it takes getting used to. Its just easier to charge with the flat version when it comes to just dropping your phone. Tilted one requires a little more alignment

Diztronic TPU Case
Review
Diztronic did a great job designing this TPU case. As you can see, this case provides great coverage in protecting the phone. With a lip covering the sides of the screen, the phone can be set face downward without the screen touching the surface. The buttons are great and have a nice feeling when pushed. Like other TPU cases pressing down on the buttons seems like such a hassle, but not with this case. The matte black finish provides a non-glossy surface that also makes it harder to see visible scratches or marks on the back of the case. All the ports (headphone jack, USB, speaker) are easily accesible thanks to the specific cutouts it provides. Overall, this is one great TPU case and I prefer it over the rest of them out there.

XO Skins
Review
XO Skins is one of many screen protectors that are done through a wet application. The whole installation process was simple. Only thing you have to take into consideration is the amount of liquid applied to both the screen protector and the phone should be minimal and just enough to let the screen protector glide over the phone. You also have to be careful squeegeeing the liquid away from open ports such as both front and back speakers. It took a little over a day for most of the leftover air bubbles, as well as marks, to dissipate.
There was little to no orange peel on the protector, compared to other competing companies such as ZAGG, which is way worse. I really like the it has all the cutouts for the front facing camera, proximity sensors, speakers, camera, and flash. Also, take note that their customer service is really nice and they will take care of an problem you have on the screen protectors. I definitely recommend this as protection for both the screen and the back glass.

LG WCP-700 (Wireless Inductive Charging)
Review
I've never used an inductive charger before owning this one. After a week of using it, it seems to do its job perfectly. The soft touch feeling covering the base provides a non-slippery surface for placing your phone. There are two LED indicators near the top that let you know whether it is on, and show that it is charging. The charging speed for the charger is fairly fast, averaging at about 10% in around 45 min. The charging does automatically stop once it hits 100% but as soon as it dips below 95% it picks right up. I would, however, like it if it kept the charging at 100%. The charger does make a beep when it is placed on the mat. It may be useful for some people but aggravating for others. This post will guide you in removing the speaker. I had tested the charging with a couple cases and can finally conclude that it does charge through TPU material as well as through the Ringke Slim case.

Clear S-Line TPU Case
Review
I really like the fact that you can see the Nexus logo through the back of the TPU case. The left and the right side has a nice textured material for better grip. The bottom of the case has to holes so that the USB and the microphone will be accessible.The back has a nice double texture; top part a matte clear finish while the right-bottom half is the clear TPU portion. The camera as well as the rear speaker is also easily accessible. The final part of the case is the top part which has two cut-outs , one for the headphone jack and the other for the secondary microphone. Both the volume rocker and the power button are slightly harder to press; I only hope for a future TPU case with cut-outs on these two places.

OEM Bumper
Review
After an extensive amount of waiting I finally received my bumper. Shipping and processing time was pretty quick. Overall, the bumper feels great in the hand even though it is slightly wider than a few of my cases. Compared to the Ringke /Diztronic slim case, it was fairly wider. Compared to my TPU case, it was just slightly wider. The most important part of the case is that your phone will be protected from drops and at the same time keep the phone looking great. The shiny bezel surrounding the phone keeps the premium look of the case. Both buttons, volume rocker and power button, provide a tactile feel when pressing down on them. They aren't like the TPU cases and it almost feels as if the actual case was integrated with the phone. On the bottom of the phone, there are cut-outs for the micro USB port as well as the microphone. Along the top, there are cut-outs for the secondary microphone and the headphone jack. I've read around some threads about the bumper and most people have trouble fitting their headphone jack to the phone because the cut-out is to small. The case was a bit pricey and I hope their will be other opportunities for people to try out this case when it's available again. I also hope that 3rd party companies will start producing more bumpers.
....More reviews will be available ...
Any question or places you would like for me to describe with more detail, I'll be happy to do so. Thanks

I actually did have a problem with that. The diztronic case has is a pretty tight case and when I tried putting it on my phone, the edges peeled just slightly. You can however try stretching the case over the edges to try and prevent that.

im waiting for the poetic case
Thanks for the reviews, but it would be more helpful if you took the pictures with a higher aperture, so the FOV isn't so narrow.
Do you think we should get the case fit XO skin if we're using the Diztronic case? I'm torn between either the XO skin or Xtremeguard. Have you, or anyone, had experience with both of these screen protectors? Is there a difference in quality between these two brands? Basically I would want the one with the least amount of orange peel, hardest/smoothest, and tough enough to not get peeled off by the Diztronic case. Opinions?
Quick question...
Has anyone tried out any case that doesn't ruin the nice smooth edges of the Nexus 4? I have a Ringke case that is only 0.8 mm thick and all, but it still ruins that super smooth feeling sliding my thumb off the edge of the screen. Since I'm getting my phone back from glass back repair this week, I'll definitely be putting it in a case, but I was hoping to find something that preserved some of the unique Nexus 4 feel.
Lowest profile, I have personally used is the Poetic Palette
http://www.amazon.com/Poetic-Palette-Premium-Manufacturer-Warranty/dp/B00ANGOICC
Thinner than the Diztronic ultra thin hard case but the trade off is that the bottom and top portion of the phone is exposed.

doesn't cover the edges all around (top and bottom), so this offers minimal drop protection.
I'm in the same boat. I'd like to find an ultra-thin TPU style case that still covers all sides/edges. Basically, a slimmer version of the Diztronic TPU case would fit the bill nicely.
I'm looking for something similar as well. I have one of the nillkin hard cases, which is already quite thin, but it still ruins the side edges.
The only way to preserve the edges is to have a case that snaps onto the phone from the top and bottom, leaving the sides open. I don't know of any cases like this and have been using my nexus, sans case, for 2.5 months.

I used my phone for two months without case. $64 to repair the glass back (plus shipping). I'll be putting a skin and a case on it. My back didn't shatter from impact; it shattered while in a Spider Podium mounted in my car, likely from temperature change.
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

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?

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.

Hi guys,
I finally got around to doing a review on the Moko Heavy Duty Case for my 6P. I ordered this on amazon.ca. I've rocked this case for about a week now since I did that video, and I am pleasantly surprised.
The cutouts are precise, and the case does not look or feel cheap. The fingerprint scanner is easy to use still as well. The plastic is pretty soft, and I don't think it would stay on on its own without the black shell, but it does fit perfectly. Also, didn't notice much pocket lint or anything else sticking to it like some have reported. Overall it's a great option for a more rugged case for the Nexus 6P, especially here in Canada, where the options can be sparse. Here's the link from amazon.
Nexus 6P Case - MoKo [Heavy Duty] Full Body Rugged Holster Cover with Swivel Belt Clip - Dual Layer Shock Resistant for Huawei Google Nexus 6P 5.7 Inch Smartphone 2015, PURPLE https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B00JP6J1A0/ref=cm_sw_r_other_awd_HnYMwbXKYG11S
11 bucks plus tax, and since I have PRIME, also got free 2 day shipping. Yes, I have a compulsive online shopping problem...
I will also post reviews for my Spigen Rugged Armour and a Poetic Revolution cases shortly.

I've got one in blue but I don't use it anymore. It's a pretty nice case and the quality is fantastic I just wish they would stop putting those huge bumps on the back for no reason. They serve absolutely no purpose and double the thickness of the phone. They do this on these cases for all phones and just still makes no sense.

You might be interested in this CoverON case, which has no such huge bumps on the back. It has an unusual 3-piece design, with a hard plastic piece that snaps on from the front of the phone (in addition to the usual one from the back), locking the soft TPU in place in the middle. I'm quite happy with the build quality, and because of the design it seems like possibly the toughest case you can get that (a) still looks even remotely normal and (b) doesn't have an integrated plastic screen protector, making it easy to add a tempered-glass one of your own. (Note, though—I have an IntelliArmor "case-friendly" TGSP, and it fits perfectly but with absolutely no room to spare. Full-coverage TGSPs will definitely interfere with the TPU at the edges of the screen, although because of the way the case fits together you might be able to get them to nestle nicely under it without lifting up.)

Nice to see somebody on this site review that case. Which color did you get? Do you have any holsters to see if this will fit?

I have the black version. Based on the pictures on Amazon the colors looked like they'd be pretty in-your-face, especially since the highlight color is visible directly around the edges of the screen. I'm afraid I don't have any holsters—I've never used one.
I realize, I forgot to mention the most important thing! The headphone and USB-C cutouts on this case, as shipped, are not large enough for most cables. The stock USB-C cable fits but scuffs the sides, many high-quality third-party cables won't, and the only headphone plugs that will fit are the super-tiny ones that some headphones have for exactly this reason. But! If you have a decent utility knife, some courage, and a steady hand, it's possible to enlarge the cutouts without messing up the case. (I cut away a tiny bit of the TPU near the jacks as well, since it was being deformed when plugging in a cable.) With this done it works beautifully—the case is even thin enough to use a Square credit-card reader in the headphone jack.
Every time I look through XDA posts on cases, I always see people getting the most protection possible from their cases. I am opposite - I hate adding any bulk; even .4". I am trying to find a case that just protects the back and sides from little scuffs (not actually anything in regards to dropping it from 4 feet). I know iPhone has a bunch (what a waste) and want to find one very similar. Matte black, silicone that is as thing as possible.
Anyone come across any yet? I can't be the only one that is looking!
Examples (New user - can't hyperlink. Sorry!):
Caudabe - The Veil for iPhone 5/5s
Desmay - The Slight for iPhone 6 Plus
Spigen - Case Air Skin for iPhone 6s
Thanks!

I'm also looking for this. I currently use the Maxboost mSnap thin, perfect fit case, which seems to be the smallest available, but it's not perfect.
Coming from the S7 Edge, I'm used to cases leaving the side edges uncovered. This Maxboost grips the bezel on every side, making the volume and power buttons difficult to press, and side swiping aggravating.
If I could find something as minimal as the S7e's Spigen Thin Fit, I would be happy.

I use the Rhino Bumper....crazy effective Drop protection, lip on both sides so when you set phone down flat there is no risk of getting scratches. I love this Bumper. Took a minute to understand Charger opening , but now it's smooth sailing and I couldn't be happier

Here is what I got as a minimal case (I also hate adding any bulk to my phone) - https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B01M1DR187/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I'm really enjoying this matte black case https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01LSB371S/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Scratches on the back of the case are self healing and it's very thin! I use a magnetic car dock and keep the metal plate taped to the inside of the case and it works perfectly for me!
https://www.amazon.com/Pixel-Diztronic-Slim-Fit-Flexible-Google/dp/B01M6Y0KIX might be a good case, i used their products before.

I have this case. I don't like the lip around the sides. If It didn't have a raised lip around the sides I think it would be a great case
