I am coming from the GS6, and have a Neo Hybrid on it. It is the best case I have every used. Little to no added bulk, and awesome protection. I have dropped my GS6 all over the place and dont have as much as a minor scratch on it.
I don't know where the post is but someone on reddit had a link that showed Spigen tweeted it would be on the Spigen site by weeks end. Code: fallfest gets you 20% off on their site until 10/28
Yes, great case. Its the only case I ever pay for.

Funny the case isn't on the Spigen site yet when it is in the header image for the Google page on the Spigen site. One of my favorite cases Spigen has ever made. I have it for multiple phones.

It's there: http://www.spigen.com/collections/pixel/products/neo-hybrid-google-pixel-xl-case?variant=27076756673
The blue one is missing though...
Thanks for this. It is a pretty sweet looking case. Not a big case fanatic but need to get one since the phone isn't cheap.
I cannot afford this case. Lol. Added one to the cart and they bumped me to a million
These are available on eBay direct from Spigen for $16.99 and free shipping. All three colors are there. The only catch is that it is a "pre-order" and they give an expected deliver date between Mon. Oct. 31 and Fri. Nov. 4 as of now. Amazon and the Spigen website have them for $24.99 and not all color options on either. I don't exactly get it but I'm in for one.

I think that was made in Zero G on the ISS. Or made as One case to rule them all! ?
I got mine today. Got the blue one for my black Pixel coming tomorrow. The blue looks really nice. The case feels nice in the hand. Also the case makes it pretty much the same size as the 6P without a case. https://imgur.com/a/Tw8Nk
Ended up with the blue version easier to find the phone. Really wanted a clear case for my silver phone. However I want one that protects well but can not seem to find one totally clear. Would love to go naked with the phone but it costs too much not to give it full protection.
Got mine this morning. Nice case to be fair! The back is a nice soft touch material and the added bulk isn't too bad. It's a nice snug fit too which is reassuring. I imagine it is fairly impact resistant due to the outer plastic surround.
Still not sure if I will use this or the clear spigen tpu case which is a little less bulky and holds on to the prettiness of the phone, of course provides less protection than the neo hybrid too mind.
Thanks for pics, I just ordered one this am.

It's so so expensive, as nice as it looks...
$25 bucks for a case to protect your (minimum) $750 investment really isn't so so expensive. Just my opinion, but you are certainly entitled to your own.
Got mine in yesterday and I'm pretty happy with it overall. It looks great and feels like it should add a good bit of protection. It is just a touch bulky, but not too bad.
I also grabbed the Neo. I was hoping the bumper was aluminum but it's not....

What case will you be getting, if any?
Post your $0.02, give a little review, discuss.
I'll start:
I ordered an otterbox commuter series case for the Desire HD, and am crossing my fingers that the Inspire and DHD are exactly the same. I feel like the commuter is the best balance between essential protection, without adding too much more bulk onto an already large device (to me, slimness is a deal breaking factor). When it comes in, and I have the phone on the 13th, I will test it out and report my findings. If it doesn't fit - I'm going to go with the case-mate 'barely there' case. The only reason I did not choose this case - strangely enough - is that it didn't cover the aluminum/glass seams on the front face of the phone.
Has anyone owned an otterbox before? Please comment on the quality, snugness, design etc - let me know what I should expect.
When I first got my Captivate I also ordered the Otterbox Commuter, however it was a bit too bulky for me since I like the aesthetics of the devices that I buy, and it hampered it too much.
With that said, I will first start out with a naked device, then I might move to a PhantomSkinz Chromatic skin. I love those things.
If I want a bit more protection, then I will definitely be getting a CaseMate Barely There too.
Heh, I also just ordered the OtterBox commuter case for DesireHD, it shipped out today. I'm hoping it fits ok, it should...
I love otterbox protection but hate the bulk. I will be going with a casemate gel skin and a gelaskin for the back along with an invisible shield for the screen

I am thinking it will fit perfectly - after doing more case research last night I found that Seidio is advertising cases for the Inspire/DHD. Unless they are purposely making a blanket case with some added "wiggle room", I believe they know for a fact the two devices share the same dimensions.
When did you order yours? I ordered mine last night (2/7/11, 11:30 pm) and have not received a shipping email yet.
Is the commuter really that bulky? I wonder how easy it is to return a case to them...
Edit: Just checked out their return policy. Seems pretty basic, except shipping costs are non refundable. If it turns out I don't like the case, I'll eat the charge for shipping it back to them (I used a coupon code that got 10% off/free shipping).
I will get the accessories package at the at&t store, but if that isn't enough, I may buy this: http://www.case-mate.com/HTC-Desire-HD/Case-Mate-HTC-Desire-HD-Clear-Armor.asp
What do you think?

I ordered mine on 2/07 at 2am, and got the shipping confirmation later the same day at 7pm... So that's about 17 hours, lol. I'm guessing that yours will probably ship out by 2/08 at some point? I'm pretty sure we'll get them by the end of the week. I used the same deal, 10% off with free shipping.
I have not seen the OtterBox Commuter cases in person, but they look a lot less bulky than the Defender cases! A friend has the Defender case for iPhone 4 and while it's nice, it's freakin' huge, haha. I think the Commuter series is supposed to be like a lighter version of the Defender, which is exactly what I want.
I always had the gel skin case made by boxwave. It's very easy take off and on. Feels good in your hand. It's doesn't add bulk. They also have one for desire hd which should fit the inspire. I am very excited about the release.

My experience with these cases are never good. While they seem great in theory, I have the way that without fail - dirt and lint get stuck on all of the edges of the plastic. Whether you keep it in your pocket or keep it in your hand, it has happened on every clear shield I have applied. Not to mention they are very tricky to apply to contoured surfaces. They protect from scratches, but don't drop it - your edge will still be exposed (which is probably what is going to hit the ground first)
I have only owned the zagg versions of these, so I don't know if the case mate ones are any different. The last one I owned was actually for an iPhone 4. While I was in the store, despite my previous experiences with them, I thought that it would be a good idea - since the front and back of the iphone 4 are completely flat. While it was a breeze to install, the plastic protector never quite took hold of the glass surface and when I would put it in my pocket, I would remove it to find the protector all disheveled over the phone. I eventually just ripped it off and found a slim hard case.

Case
This case has great reviews on an htc desire site. Its made from TPU which is a little harder and less "sticky" than a gel case. Same material as my iphone's iskin case which I've had for over a year. I've dropped it multiple times, and no damage to the phone or case. Prob the best material IMO.

Probably similar to the Flexishield case I have on my Hero. If so, they are great.
Just ordered that case, $3.79 shipped on eBay.
I plan on getting the seidio innocase II case holster combo for the inspire when it ships
Cool, my OtterBox Commuter case (for Desire HD) came in today! Took 3 days total with (free) shipping via USPS Priority.
The case is NICE! Way better than I expected and really not too bulky looking at all. I'd say no thicker than any other normal case. I like the combination of the rubber + hard shell. The case also has a nice texture to it as well. Now I just hope it fits the Inspire ok, lol.
I pre-ordered from Radio Shack, guy told me they were getting the Inspires in "early" for the 10th, because they're trying to compete with Verizon iPhone (which launches on the 10th). I have no idea if he's right or not, but will call on Thurs afternoon to check, and maybe I'll have a nice surprise...
I preordered mine through radioshack as well i hope they call me earlier than the 13th to come pick it up. i'm paying retail for the phone so i wonder if I'll get the 30 accessorie gift card? Any suggestions?
So we can buy any desire hd case and it will fit the inspire?

I ordered 4 of them from the shack and was told I would get the $30 card for each phone. Also not sure if you did this or not, but on the bottom of your preorder receipt theres a survey link , tkaes about 3 minutes, and at the end you print out a coupon for $10 off your next $40 purchase (picking up the phone )
Pre ordered the Moto X Pure. But looking for a nice tpu or bybrid case. Usually, there's a lot of cases available for a phone before the phone releases. But not the Pure/Style. I know there's a a few on amazon etc... But those cases are junk. Cheap made and will fall apart in a week. I see that incipio has one and ugly otterbox. But never really liked incipio and otterbox. But where are, seidio, Griffin, Belkin, UAG, Spigen???
I doubt UAG will have a case for the moto x pure but I would love it if they did.

Most of the high quality, big name companies didn't make for the previous 2nd Generation model, so they probably aren't for this. Maybe they have some kind of pay to play scheme and Moto isn't paying.

People seem to like the variant of it for the Moto G or whatever. The Amazon reviews are about the best feedback you're going to get for the moment. I bought a number of $3-4+shipping cases myself. I don't feel like buying a $30 Incipio case at the moment... And my old phone is still using a cheap case I put on it back in 2012, so I've had good experiences with the cheaper ones anyway.

It will hold. I have had that case for quite a few phones. It is just a bit bulky. I like it for phones under 5 inches and it was OK on the 2014 moto X.

Has anyone seen any cases like the flip shell for the Moto G? Most of these add to the already bulky look of the phone (and don't protect the screen).
I ordered this one (http://amzn.com/B013HSX5L2). I'm actually looking forward to the transparent back. I got the Ash wood back.
I ordered this case before my MXP arrived and had it waiting. I wish it was a little snugger fit, but it'll do for $8 shipped until something better comes along.

I just got my Moko. I'm not a fan. So far it seems well made, but the holster is backwards when I wear it on my left side.
In addition, it's off-center, so I'm always putting the phone in the wrong way, and the phone can't go in with screen facing out, which makes the the much more stable holster clipstand useless.

Hi,
Just received the Incipio DualPro case. Fit is good, buttons respond well.
Decent dual layer protection. Back is a little slick/slippery.
I'll use it for a while and see how I like it,

Here it is: http://www.incipio.com/cases/smartp...ualpro-case-motorola-moto-x-pure-edition.html
I got the incipio octane and i really like it. The incipio dual pro is too slick to hold on to though
Does anyone have a pic of the Incipio Octane with frost back?
I'll give you a thank for it lol
Are there any bumpers besides the one that comes in the box..preferably TPU? The one that comes with the phone is a hard plastic that makes the vibration super loud on a desk, but I also don't want to cover the case with a full back.
Anybody found one?

I was very happy with the SlimArmor on my N6, and was disappointed that they didn't make one for the N6P. Excited to be able to get one around my new Pixel XL!
Simple, protective design, kickstand, and just enough of a lip to cover the small gap that most TGSPs will leave exposed.
It's my perfect case. Thanks for sharing the find!
I have owned Spigen tough cases for my last few phones. Just preordered the Pixel XL and disappointed to see they don't have the tough yet for this phone on Amazon. I see it on eBay though so there is hope but delivery may not be till Nov 12th. Not sure if I need to just find a temporary case for a few weeks.

Although I won't receive my phone until Nov. 21-23, I have the Slim Armor in hand. The kickstand was easily dislodged when the carbonate backing was removed. It probably will be rectified when the phone is attached.
Just holding it, it feels slippery in hand. Having a phone might improve the grip.

A lot of people complain about the kickstand when they first see a spigen case. It does pop out when there is no phone in it. Once the phone is it, I have never personally had an issue with the kickstand coming off. It is usually really hard to open and I have to use something to pry it up.
Mine was slippery as well. I thought about washing it with a small amount of dish soap to see if there's something on it.
@nicemann Does the rotation of the kickstand leave marks on the phone? Because it looks like it's going to rub the back of the phone.
I can say that the kickstand is not flushed; there is a slight depression.

Shouldn't. If it's like the Slim Armor I had for my N6. It rests in between the outer shell and the inner TPU... not in direct contact with the phone.

I've always bought my pixels after their initial release. The 4 is the first pre-order I've done and just went with a Google case for now since it's what I've had on my 2XL for a while now.
Amazon has 2 XL cases up now. Available the 16th. I'm getting the ultra hybrid.
I've always had the tough armor cases. Always good. For now I bought the Liquid air case. It is 10.99 on amazon right now. We'll see how it works out.
Ordered on Amazon, cancelled my order with spigen.com
I always had the Rugged Armor, but thought I'd change it this year.
I'd check Spigen's eBay for these cases. The official online store for Spigen usually sells them at full price and the eBay store's pricing is usually priced around half of the listed prices. They ship from Irvine, CA.
That soigen crystal case seems like a no brainer. Fully clear so you can see ALL the color of your device in all it's glory. Some cases cover the back, others cover the buttons.

I'll also pick up a nice leather wallet case when one becomes available. Link to the Neo here ----> https://www.amazon.com/Spigen-Hybri...el+4+xl&qid=1571356020&s=wireless&sr=1-6&th=1
I've been running a thin fit on my 2 XL since new. Love it. Just saw they have a white thin fit I'll be pre ordering on Amazon.
Just got my Neo Hybrid and Rugged Armor cases. I was originally going to just pick one to keep and return the other one, but wow, I love the way both these cases feel. The back has a nice matte feel to it. Fingerprints don't smudge on it. I have oily hands and it's not noticeable on these cases

Outa curiosity, which one feels like it has the better grip? I was planning on getting one of these 2 cases myself. Really like the looks of the Gunmetal hybrid one. Thanks for any feedback :good:

Hmm ... This might be a YMMV type of thing. Only just holding both cases with no phone in it, I would lean toward the Rugged Armor being "grippier". Only because on the Neo Hybrid, the sides of the phone case might be slippery to some. But close tie between the two.

Well....that solves it then, I'll just get both. Thanks for the info my friend :good:
Does anyone know of a bumper only case? Meaning it's just an edge around the phone but nothing on the back?
Rhinoshield makes one and it's great. But, it won't be available for a little while. Not sure when but they have an email sign-up at their website.

I've had it for my previous pixels and it's a great case. It's saved me too with some serious drops on concrete.

I just dropped a quick message to RhinoShield's support team and their guess is that it'll be ready around "early November"

I don't know if I trust them with their estimate.
I got the bumper for my nexus 6P and pixel 2xl and it was my favorite.
I wanted it for my 3xl, which I ordered on announcement day last year, but by the time it was available I had bought a slew of other cases and didn't feel like spending any more. Especially since I only had plans on keeping the phone for a year.
I once again ordered the 4xl on announcement day and I'm trying to be patient but I've already ordered 3 other cases so they need to get with it and finish the bumper case already. A discount code would be nice too as it's not the cheapest case in the world.
Just checked their website again, looks like their bumper cases are now available for pre order with shipping around the end of November (so long goes the "early november" time frame they told me)

Totally agree with you here. Their website is now open for pre orders for the 4 XL but doesn't ship till the end of November, which is far too late for most people since other people would already have gone with some other case at this point.
I got a clear case temporarily hoping the bumper one will come out within the next week or so but looks like that won't happen at all :/
Just pre-ordered mine. Said Nov 29 estimated ship date.
+1 to everyone that recommended. Had it for my pixel 3xl and it's the best. Only negative the white won't stay white forever.
FYI. Case shipped today!

Please let us know how you like it.
I'm a big fan of these but as I've stated previously, I've already purchased (and gotten free) some other cases and I just don't need another.
And I'm never spending $40 so I have to pay the $5 shipping, which is annoying for a $25 item.
TIA

For something other than Rhinoshield, check out XXXXX. It's a case with a transparent back. I am assuming you didn't want a full case in order to preserve the looks of the phone. In that case, this could be a good alternative.
It has protection on the edges so that the phone can take a few drops easily. Plus its cheaper than Rhinoshield.

Thanks for the rec.
I was sent the Schnail case that some got for free and that's my "protection against all circumstances" case. It's surprisingly great!
I just ordered the Rhinoshield bumper case and should have it by Wednesday and that was my favorite on a few of my recent google phones.
I'm using my google fabric case since Saturday and I like it too.
I also have the ESR Mimic, which might be my favorite. The combo of slimness, tempered glass back and grippy tpu bumper is really nice.
I know, at the very least, the bumper will yellow eventually but it is a very nice case.
I also got a deal on the Totallee slim frosted clear and it's pretty cool too. Absolutely the slimmest case ever.
I obviously have a sickness that's shared by many on these forums. Please pray for me. Lol.

I used the Rinke on my Pixel 3XL and never had any issues. Dropped a few times, no damage.
I've tried a few cases with this Pixel 4XL but I'm back to the Rinke!
Also have the ESR mimic on order.
I got my rhinoshield case today and it's of course what you would expect. Fits perfectly and if minimal as can be. The buttons are crisp and very very easy to identify which I truly appreciate.
In short if you like a minimal bumper case that shows off your phone without taking anything away from it, look no further.
Anyone heard anything on the Ringke Onyx? Had this on my 2XL and 3XL, but they don't make it (yet) for the 4XL. The Fusion looks like too much for me and possibly a lint trap. I reached out to Ringke, but it's the weekend so won't likely hear anything back until next week. May have to start with the Spigen Rugged Armor.
I bought the UAG Plasma, its a little heavier than the Rinke but fits great and looks like it would be plenty of protection from a fall.
The crashguard has a lot more texture than last year

I absolutely agree!
So glad I ordered one. I had it for my nexus 6P and my pixel 2xl and loved it. Skipped it on my 3xl as I had too many cases and now I have it for my 4xl and the fit, look and protection is top notch. Highly recommend.
I have bought too many cases again so I try and spread them out and use them all.
I like the esr mimic. It feels and looks great with the tempered glass back.
The Totallee frosted clear case is scary thin, but feels great in your hand. Only protection is from scratches if laid on it's back.
The Schnail case I got for free and it's actually quite good. Incredible protection but I don't have much use for it.
I also got the google fabric case, which I also had for the 2xl and 3xl. It's not as good for the 4xl. The feel of the fabric is better but the fit is not as good. It's not as snug as the past 2. A little disappointing actually.
I wish they would hurry up and release it into the Amazon store. The one for the smaller 4 is there but not for the XL.
