Cases

Post links to anything you find. I want something even if it cheap just for protection, until some nicer ones come out, hopefully. I haven't found any yet. I'd prefer something thin because of the size of this thing.

I found a couple of different cases on Amazon.com after searching for "BLU Pure XL -Life" without the parentheses.
I would pick the black ones but they both come in a selection of colours.

OK, thank you.; but remember this isn't the 'life' version.
Should the Gionee and Allview cases fit as well?
Feel free to share links in this thread.

I do not know which Allview cases might fit, but I do know that the Gionee E8 should fit them.

I found this .... http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0156...65&sr=8-14&pi=AA140_QL70&keywords=blu+pure+xl
Would have bought it for protection, but takes almost a month or mo.e to ship....cough.... China

The "-life" search parameter tells it to exclude postings with "life" in the title. Very good way to search for this device on Amazon, Google and other search engines.

at aliexpress.com if you're looking for "Gionee Elife E8" find some cases that should fit

I actually purchased this case in black. It just protects the back not the screen at all. In my opinion just finding a really good screen protector for the phone should be good. You can always replace the back. My experience working in the cellphone department at best buy has proven (to me atleast) that the cases that just cover the back and corners of the phone end up doing some damage to the phone themselves (as far as scratches on the corners and some wear) but I guess its better than the actualy drop would be

That's probably something that you'd need to contact BLU for.
eBay is another good site for cases and stuff, but search Gionee, BLU comes up with very little. Also, be careful of AliExpress. They're dishonest as hell.

Blu Pure XL OEM flip cover
My flip cover is cracking. Blu is no help. I'm looking for a flip cover that turns the phone on and off like the OEM cover.
Help?

Anyone alrady tried few cases for the Mi4C?

How are you?
Would love to hear for your most recommanded cases for the Mi4C.
Thank you very much!

I bought the original hard case and a compatible TPU transparent cover...the original is the best choise ever...

I wanted as small/unnoticeable as possible case for my Mi4C so I bought a "ultra-thin" TPU case made for Mi4i. It is fully suitable for Mi4C but you have to drill a hole for IR blaster. I bought this one (link).

Another vote for the original hard case here: slim but with softer, more grippy plastic.

Wahoo!
Thank you all for the good vibe
If i prefer a matirial that would feel in-between the hard plastic & the Sillicon a TPU would suit? maybe TPU?
Could be also hard plastic but with smooth touch of a sillicon...
Does any of the following hard plastic but with smooth touch of a sillicon(not too slippery)?
Thanks!

I'm using a TPU cover for free. It has a good fit but no longer life, i know. Anyone live in China or near can test a cover? I'm italian, The shipment was too longer!

@ale_noise
Shipment takes long time almost everywhre from CN
I'm from Israel and it well known that in case of shippments from CN or HK it wont take less than 25 days.
Guess the carriers just cannot deal with such as crazy amount of shippments from 1 coutry in every month.

@shabydog
It make me happy, but the problemi is not solved.
Anyone from CN?
Auahauahuahu
Have a good time!

Try amazon they have a few cases available, just bought one the other day and got it today

@kevinnol , We can buy in Amazon. But we live out of u.s and it takes 5-7 days.
And mostly eBay, Ali' etc. cheaper.

On Amazon there're 2 glass protection!

Yes I got it. It is very thin like promised and suitable for Mi4C. You just need to drill hole for IR blaster.

Guys, tell me if your ultra-thin cases work cause I'm gonna buy one like that too. And if it's necessary to drill a hole for the IR blaster or if it works without the hole?

IR blaster works without drilling the hole but it will work on longer distances if you drill a hole. You don't have to drill the hole if you don't want to. The shipping was one week to Finland.

You won't regret that. Just make sure you get the plus model.

I bought this from eBay.
spigen case.

Wrong thread.

Bought official slim flip brown case, it is really worthy for such nice looking bhone, it is clearly much better quality than common chinese flip cases.
As is stated in other thread here, it does not have a magnet, a had to insert small magnet from notebook HDD into card pocket for screen sensor to work.

Bought something like this: https://ae01.alicdn.com/kf/HTB1fgy0...d-PC-Soft-Silicone-Back-Phone.jpg_640x640.jpg
Looks nice, looks even a bit more premium (I mean.. I payed for it like 3$ ) than it's worth. Doesn't feel like it. But the doesn't offer as much of protection as it's advertised. I guess none of them protect the phone any more.. The leg is quite useful (Cheaply made, could break off pretty easily, yet it's still intact on my phone). All the holes for jack ports sucks. 3.5mm impossible to fit (well.. I use other headphones, maybe original ones fit). Maybe I will make the hole bigger somehow.. USB jack also gives problems. You have to adjust the bottom part of the case everytime. Can live with it, but could be better.

(Updated) Genuine Samsung Clear Cover Note 9 Transparent

Update :
Go to page 3, i included some photos + black silicone case
Samsung Clear Cover Note 9 Transparent
FYI..
Actually samsung did it with Note9, found it by luck in one of our local online stores here in Dubai. I don't think its available on Amazon anywhere (US, UK & CANADA) YETTTT...
Sharing it here so if others are interested, they can keep an open eye around waiting for it.
This is mostly a plastic snap on case, not a tpu.
Ordered it, & i didn't receive it yet, will update this upon receiving it. If any is interested.
The local online store doesn't ship internationally, so am not sharing it here.

I want this. Keep me updated OP

I’m really looking forward to this case. It is the only one of the official cases that appears to be out of stock everywhere. I had this hard case for my Note 8 and even though it doesn’t seem to offer that much protection it provides a perfect grip and make the withd of the phone ideal to not slip at all from the hand.

Doesnt it come with the phone?

Exactly why am getting it, had it also for the note8, specially if you skin your phone with a nice color.. Will update the post once i receive it..

What comes with the phone is a tpu cover, this one is hard plastic with a very thin profile and the best grip..

My note 8 came with the hard plastic case like that which you described.

I found this on eBay,a 10-pack of unbranded clear PC cases for less than $15:

Mobilefun.com will have this case in stock soon, and you can pre order, for what it's worth.

I've bought it today. It looks very nice and slim. Of course it fits like glove. It has a grippy feeling which is good for me. And it is soft not a hard case. I'm glad I've bought it Hope it does not turn to yellow soon.

Could you please upload some pictures? I wonder if it is the same case that came in the box ?

Looks like they tinted it slightly blue/gray which should reduce the yellowing effect.

I want the hard plastic case like they had for the Note 8. Felt like you didnt even have a case on it. Oh well.

I bought this generic one on 8/15, it delivered today:
https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https://www.ebay.com/ulk/itm/292656916441
Real nice fit, ultra slim profile & no rainbow effect.
FWIW, it does not have the raised corners (or any raised edges) like the PC OEM Case for the Note 8.
Protection is as minimal as it gets, top & bottom are fully exposed, oversized cutouts for the buttons.
IMHO, perfect......
@Semantics
EDIT:
Seems the selller has updated/substituted what I purchased.
The one in the link is not what I have,SMH,sorry about that........
@Semantics
EDIT #2
Here's one that closely resembles what I ordered:
https://www.ebay.com/itm/Galaxy-Not...-Cover-Clear/163216970699?hash=item26007d53cb
It has a bit more coverage,but,the buttons are still cut out,vs the protuding button coverage on most cases.
Yeah,a bit pricier than the one I originally linked,but,it's cheaper than the OEM Samsung one & actually available now.

Q - quality of original case

Hello
I ve just buy an Oneplus 6.
There is a case inside.
Is this case is good ?
Should i buy another one ?
Is someone had trouble with it?
(Don't need any comments like "buy spigen case"
I just need you advice about original case)
Thanks folks

The original case is not good, with time it will become bigger than the phone and the phone will be jiggling in it.
It just give you time to buy a better case and to use it with protection out of the box.
Also if you use it to much you will notivce you will have dots(specially with the midnight black) that wont go away even with many wipes so use it but not too much and yes buy a spiegen one lol

I buyed one just now.
But... This is original one ( https://www.amazon.fr/Spigen-OnePlus-Resistant-Anti-Choc-K06CS23358/dp/B07B9TC2WV )
And this is " copy" ... ( https://www.amazon.fr/Beyeah-OnePlu...36_SY340_FMwebp_QL65&keywords=coque+oneplus+6 ) For me all are same. I used one on lg g6, and everything was fine...what about you ?

for me that case is like for backup purpose.
while you order/buy another brand case. or when your primary case broken.
feels cheap on hand

I got the copy one and i like it very much, i have many others, i usually buy them from aliexpress it's cheaper but that one is the one i like the most

I usually do this too. I never had a prob with aliexpress case.
It cost 5x less expensive ^^
I tryed a spigen this time but i'm not sure that have any differences between them

There is no huge difference, maybe a little bit on the touch or on the lip that surrounds the screen, but you'll have it written on the back of the case

To be honest, it isn't that bad. I purchased a Poetic Guardian with the phone which I only used for a day as it was too bulky. I used the supplied TPU case for a bit and it hasn't loosened at all. It is fine for most people. I only stopped using it because I've decided to stick a matte black skin on the back of my phone and just rely on that and a TGSP (risky I know)
There are better cases out there, but most thin cases you find will be much the same as this!
