So this week i'll be purchasing about three or four cheapo silicone/rubberized cases from amazon for the inspire 4G.
I will also purchase either a commuter or a case mate tough.
I'll be sure to post a comprehensive review and pictures comparing all the cases.
I need some help deciding which of the two to get though.
Commuter vs Case Mate Tough.
Opinions?
Do they both protect the camera when the phone is layed flat on a surface?
Thanks guys.
I have the case-mate tough. It protects the screen and camera when laid down flat. I like it a lot. It is very simple and the hard outer piece is nice for sliding in and out of pockets. Have not seen the commuter in person so no opinion on it.
From watching the various desire hd YouTube videos it seems they're pretty much the same except that the otterbox has the little covers for the mini USB and audio jack. I just ordered me up the case mate off at&T's website using the 25% off accessories code. Hoping for the best.

As personal preference, go with the Otterbox commuter. Its not bulky whatsoever. I'm positive you won't be disappointed.
My Commuter is the best phone case I've ever had. I'm sure the Casemate is pretty nice too.. vote with your wallet
I have both and I prefer the Otterbox because the Casemate back is more slippery. The Casemate does feel a little thinner to me. I currently don't have either on because I just love the way the phone feels =)... I'm sure I'll pay for it though.

I have tried all of them...Otterbox is the best IMO. On any phone...
I'll go with the casemate tough.
I don't like the "Otter" logo on the back of the otter case and the fact that the buttons are covered.
Other than that I don't think I would have a preference.
Will post review as soon as i receive it.
what about the Seido cases?
Anyone know about or prefer the Innocase II/ [email protected]??

I just bought the platinum series today from best buy for 35.00. I like it so far. It came with the holster and it doesn't put a lot of bulk on the phone.
UPDATE
Case holds up great. Just slipped in ice and landed on the phone. The phone did not come out the holster at all. No physical damage to the phone, but the ice did break and the phone got water damaged. I was able to exchange it at Walmart though. Seems like a good case besides no water protection lol.
Jumped the gun on the Otterbox Commuter and I have to say I really like it. It came in 2 parts, the rubber and the hard case which goes together. The volume buttom and the power button has a nice feel to them, doesnt make pushing them any harder. The screen protector that it came with was a bit smaller than the Inspire screen because the box actually says it is for Desire HD.
Going to visit mobilecity in China town today for cases, do you think Case-Mate in blue is manly? Can't post link yet.
just got my case mate tough and i love it ... the only problem i have is the volume buttons are a little harder to push but power/lock is unaffected. however that doesnt really cause a major problem for me because i use the audio manager widget most of the time

did you make sure that the volume rocker was all the way thru the slot on the side of the hard plastic? i had this issue too, and thats what fixed it.
Does the rubber part of the case collect alot of pocket lint?

Here's the variation for the iPhone 5. The reason I'm including this is because its not a cheap photoshopped picture/render. It's got decent reviews and looks pretty sexy!!
http://www.amazon.com/iPhone-Retail...-9&keywords=KaysCase+Slim+Soft+Gel+Cover+Case
Here's a review that is relevant for us from the iPhone variant. The price is just a dollar now with 4 dollars for shipping.
"The seller was one of the first to offer an iPhone 5 case, a full week before the iPhone 5 launch. They ran a promotion for about 85% off their regular price, and they promised launch-day delivery (Sep. 21), which I was very skeptical about. However, lo-and-behold, a few hours after UPS dropped off my iPhone 5, USPS had delivered my KaysCase"
I'm pretty excited about this!!
Very nice, its a shame about the 17th as the release date though. I will probably get the soft and hard cases.
This looks pretty good. I really want one as soon as I get my phone though and ordering this to the UK will take some time.
Lol anyone notice this:

there is clear and gray I think.
I have a Kay's Case for my GS3 and it's the one I settled on after trying about six others. I'd avoid a clear coloured one though because it looks grubby after a while.
Too bad it doesn't ship to Europe....
anyone got the frosted clear?
Anyone gotten the frosted clear one? I can read on amazon that it's getting good reviews...but I'm curious if it really it soft and if you can see the back's design through the frosted clear. Also, if the words "kay case" is really on it (one review says it is one doesn't). Curious.
I just picked up the smoked one from amazon now just waiting for my nexus 4 seems to be a good case anybody else agree?

I have the black version. It's a decent case. The Diztronic (I have the matte back black one) is a little better. The Diztronic is a little more solid, has a tighter fit, and the the cutouts are a little more precise.

I have a case for my Ipod touch that has 2 parts. You sort of stretch this rubber case over and then a hard plastic fits over that. It really provides amazing drop protection because the rubber absorbs the shock and the plastic absorbs the impact.
For now I have ordered a few really cheap tpu cases but I am hoping for one of these. I will serif I can find the manufacturer of these hard soft cases and I will exit this post. These would really be the way to go if possible.

I received my smoke KayCase a few days ago. It's a nice looking case but trying to press the power button is a nightmare. I've considered using a razor blade or xacto knife to cut the case away from the power button as someone else said they did in the Amazon comments but my craft skills are nearly non-existent. I've written to them using Amazon's feedback mechanism so we'll see what happens.
In the meantime I've ordered the Diztronic and should have it Wednesday.
how slippery is the back of this case? I want a gel case that will not easily slide on a table/flat surface.
I've bought mine from ebay: /itm/400440587924
Pretty cheap xD
Hate cases on a nice phone, but worried due to reports of the lcd cracking in pockets.
Anyone having luck without a case?

Caseless and Happy
I've had my GS4 caseless since I got it just over two weeks ago, it's still in great condition. I generally don't like using a case on my phones, (I never used a case on my GS2 before this one) as I don't like the look and bulk that it adds, no screen protector either, I'm still amazed by how well Gorilla glass resists scratching, the screen on my GS2 still looks brand new, despite never having a screen protector on it.
Case less all the way, with a screen protector..prob don't neet it but I'm anal like that. Oh and changed the back to a metal one. Gives the phone a "heavier" feel.
Naked with a ArmorSuit Miltary shield screen protector and Seidio spring-clip hoster.
I am thinking of getting the metal back too. they look cool and seem to add weight to the back so the phone might be more likely to fall on the back in the event of a drop.
Im caseless and screen protector less, my phone flung off my lap when i got outta the car the othet day, cartwheeled on asphalt and only left a nick in the bottom right of bezel. No cracks thank god..
I think i may have a few light scratches, may get one of those fancy glass screen protectors everyone's been raving about

Not I. I had my Galaxy S II caseless without a screen protector and it held pretty well... That thing was pretty solid.
I was watching all the drop tests, and seeing how easy Gorilla Glass III actually cracks; even seeing on here where it cracked in peoples pants??? Seeing that this is a bigger device, somewhat harder to hold in my hands, and definitely a lot more slippery than the SII, I do not want to take a chance on the $649.99 device. I also like leaving the device laying flat down on a surface(still getting used to air gestures, but the notification air gesture is cool); but one of the first things to touch the surface while laying flat is the camera lens which bothered me. I also have AT&T insurance but after seeing this case, it made my choice...
Spigen Neo Hybrid Case (Satin Silver)
edit* funny I had a dream last night that I actually cracked my S4. In the dream, it felt so real and that feeling of the cracked screen just really brings you down (sorry guys for the ones who did), but when I woke up, I was so relieved...

You guys crack me up. Spend hundreds for the phone and don't want to spend more than 7.00 on a case. Just Kidding
I prefer a leather pouch. Will get the Spigen one for 29.99. Has always done well for me and allows me to "use" phone with no case.
I am getting 2 32gb S4's tonight. My son still wants a case to use and keeps phone in pocket while at work. Does bending, stocking. Doesn't want case while using the phone, like me. But, doesn't want pouch. Is there a hard case that easily comes off then back on. Looked at many web sites and videos. Seems once they are on, they are not designed to be popping on and off--
OP: Based on my research, I would get some kinda case for the phone. I don't think this one will fair as well as my One S and Blackberries when dropped--
I roll caseless with my S4 and HTC One, both with Ghost Armor front and back.

If I get a case its going to be that exact one. It really is a nice looking case imo. does it add much bulk? doesnt look like it in the pics.
I sometimes dream about my phone too. makes me feel a bit obsessed lol.
I went caseless until I noticed the metal camera ring got all scratched up. Luckily I found a dead pixel on the display and was able to exchange it because of that.
With the premier discount on my account, I picked up the decent Case Mate clear case from the AT&T for 35% off. It works and the camera ring is still shiny with love.

You're gonna find dozens of different opinions on this. Everyone has different needs and preferences and few people will have used more than one case.
I've had the Diztronic TPU case. It's not bad. But being a TPU case, it's fairly bulky and I wouldn't call it pretty. I got this one a bit later: http://www.fasttech.com/products/0/10001933/1138601-protective-pc-matte-case-for-lg-nexus-4 Looks and feels better in my opinion and is less bulky. Definitely offers less protection though, but I'm okay with that cause I just like using my phone quite a bit more with this case compared to a TPU one. Doesn't mean you will, though. There is no single best case.
I personally like the S line TPU cases found on ebay, there are only a few bucks and they provide the best overall protection + grip on the sides. Cant complain about 2 bucks.
I'm using this one and love it.

I have used a black S line TPU case from ebay since I first got my Nexus 4 a few months ago. I have dropped it on a couple of hard surfaces over time and it's faired out pretty well and I would recommend them to anyone, also great value for money.
I just got my triple armor hybrid case today and I like it a lot.it feels very comfortable in the hand. The edges aren't deep like the eagle case. Its perfect. Still waiting for my damn mybat tuff case. Its taking forever to get to me. One ended up from Cali to Chicago??? I'm the other way....in Hawaii. The other is just sitting and waiting. Usps is messing up a whole bunch of crap this month. Try the triple armor hybrid its awesome:laugh:
Absolutely love the Ringke Fusion case. It's got a plastic transparent back so you can show off the unique glass back of the Nexus 4 (which is one of the only truly unique and beautiful things about this phone.) also offers a solid amount of protection. Have dropped it a couple times.

I use "Rearth Ringke SLIM White" cover, it's made in solid plastic and it costs 13€ (17.65 $).
For me this cover is one of the best available for nexus 4, there's only one defect it doesn't offer a perfect grip.
Poetic's SLIM case is also pretty awesome, and it leaves the whole screen exposed so you can swipe from the edges (e.g., in Play app). $6 at Amazon...

I second this case. for the same reason. why get such a beautiful phone if your just gonna cover it up
It gives very good access to the buttons, actually making them easier to press.
Although I have yet to actually test it out with a drop, and hope i never do, but just in case.

LOL there is that, ut I am use to the old motorola nextels. Just doesn't seem that long ago to me.
I have always preferred tpu or hybrid cases, the hybrids for the nexus 4 were lack luster at best, and out of the tpu cases I found the cruzerlite a2 to be the best. I had the driztroic but I found it to be a little to slippery with its matte finish and the buttons were a little hard to find and push.

Just found these cases on Amazon. I've always been a big fan of these. I've never had the heavy duty holster case before but I've had several of the Unicorn Beetle cases and have loved them. It seems they always have a tight/snug fit that protects the phone nicely with easy-to-use buttons, although I'll hold judgment until I get my case and phone in.

Just so you know there is already a case thread, & I did post about this one and a holster thread a couple days ago. Looking forward to it for sure.
Looks nice hope it gets an AF cutout
I have had great luck with Supcases on other phones and tablets. Love the fitment and the rubber last forever.
Looks like the pictures for both cases on Amazon have been updated. They look really nice and don't interfere with the auto focus sensor. Unicorn Beetle Slim and Pro
Edit: I believe they also added new colors
I like both of them, but more leaning to the slim model. I like the bigger one, but I am always afraid the screen protector will affect screen usage. Anyone have any experience with how the built in screen protectors feel?

I'm actually waiting for a tank case, since I don't care about added bulk. I find it more reassuring. Problem is, the tank case makers don't seem to have committed to making cases for the 6P. Griffin, Ballistic, Trident, and OtterBox are out. Seidio is making one, but I'm not sure which one. I'm hoping for the CONVERT case. Other than that, options seem VERY limited. : /

Thanks, I certainly hope so. I'm holding off on getting the phone as of yet, because I want to see some reviews first. Also, I'm looking to batch 2, to avoid any possible issues with quality control. I wonder when those will start rolling out? January, perhaps?

Yeah, the unicorn beetle cases are absolutely insanely tough. I've thrown my g3 across the room many times and across the asphalt and concrete plant in the case doesn't even have any scratches. Very hard to get off but I don't know that I'll ever use another case again.

Yes, although the built in screen protector is pretty nasty. Easy to remove by pushing it out of the frame and scraping off the adhesive. I have one on my g3 and the buttons are open, but that's probably because the way the g3 sits. Looking at the version for the Nexus it looks like they are completely covered.

I preordered this case about a month ago and absolutely need this case. After using one on my Motorola nexus 6, and doing construction work for a living its my go to case. I don't know how much longer I can wait for this to ship.... Seems like the date keeps getting pushed back on Amazon.

So the Unicorn case has a screen protector built in to the case? Also... Are the power button and volume rocker covered or naked

Only the pro has the built-in plastic protector. Buttons are covered, but still just as effective/responsive. IMO from personal experience, the pro version is complete overkill because the standard cause does such a great job with almost no perceived bulk. Pro only wins out over the standard version if you expect to drop your phone from an extreme height like 15 feet or so. If you, like many, like UAG cases, you'll love this one.
