Looks like a good case but I don't see a cut-out for the speaker?

thats what i thought at first because of the picture but looking through the reviews i found that it does actually have one and it lines up well. heres the review look in the comments http://www.amazon.com/review/R20DM9...AAKM44K&linkCode=&nodeID=&tag=#wasThisHelpful

Same thing, different branding.. pretty sure..

Ooh yeah! lol.... :silly:

I Just received my: Exact(TM) Armor Case for Google Nexus 4 Smart Phone Black (Amazon.com). It fits great with openings for speaker and both microphones. I already have a collection of tpu cases and Google's Bumper. At just a little under $8 shipped it can't be beat!

Received this case as well. I paid $4 and amazon prime upgraded me to one day shipping to avoid the snowstorm. I LOVE this case! Better than me Otterbox commuter case and also better than the ballistic I used to use. For the price this is a no brainer. Also I have not found this case slippery. The grips on the back catch my fingers. This will be my daily.

Those corner bumpers look like they would provide great protection. Might pick one of these up, just wish the back wasn't so damn ugly.

I just got mine on Friday all I can say is that this is the best 4 bucks I've spent. The case is firm the only problem is that it tries to peel off my screen protector on the side where the proximity sensor is but other than that, this case is very close to what ballistic will be offering

Looks like good protection but damn it looks thick!

Got mine today, looks and feels much better than I expected and darn good quality. Definitely will do the job. Will have to see how it lines up with my screen protector.

Any 0.3mm super thin TPU cases?

Anybody aware of any super thin TPU cases for the GS4? Something like http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0089KJW3Y/ref=oh_details_o04_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1.
I had one of those for my GS3. It was amazingly thin and very grippy. Absolutely loved it.

Already got one. Unfortunately, MUCH thicker than a 0.3mm TPU case, and doesn't even completely cover the top and bottom of phone.

Product will be slightly more heavy than 3 Grm but will be super thin ( as you can see on the IP5 demo video )
Thanks

The SPIGEN Bounce is the thinnest TPU case I've ever used or reviewed. You'll want to wait a bit for them to fix the design though. Revision 2 of this case will be killer.

SUPCASE Unicorn Beetle Case for Samsung S4

Found this cool case on Amazon. Really like the color combination and sporty profile. I may order the yellow/black one. But it seems like a one month waiting time!

Does it offer good protection?
I prefer the Otterbox Defender for my phones, but I am really impressed by this Unicorn Beetle Case. Does it offer good protection?

Looks like it does. The yellow is sleek as hell

looks pretty decent actually.
strange how the yellow one is $1.75, while all the other colors are $14.99
must be a mistake.
grabbed one at that price.
shipping is 2 times more expensive then the case itself

Very cool looking case.

Otterbox Preserver

http://www.otterbox.com/Preserver-Series-for-Samsung-Galaxy-4/sam20-galaxy-s4,default,pd.html
Anyone thinking of getting one? I'm torn. I love my hornet defender (though the screen protector has proven itself cheaper than my previous defenders), and am torn on giving up that color combo. On the other hand, true waterproof protection could be worth it.

looks pretty solid but slightly too expensive for me.
i got both defender and commuter

The cost does seem prohibitive, but vzw may surprise and stock it, which means a possible discount...

Looks like an exact copy of the lifeproof case lol

Not really. I see quite a bit of differences. The only thing that looks the same is how it covers the home button. Otherwise the top by the speaker and sensors is totally different, more the the obex. The back is completely different as well as the sides

I agree, it doesn't look anything like the lifeproof other than it is a case. The back on the lifeproof (both versions) is completely clear.
Also, although there is no top view released pictures of the Otterbox Preserver, it is obvious that the headphone seal it quite a bit different from the lifeproof.
I was set to plunk down some money for the lifeproof, but the clear back and the flimsy headphone seal drove me away. It will be interesting to see more info on this case. But if it is not released soon, it will be irrelevant.

So this is really just their Armor series re-branded.

They've updated the design of the case. Not an exact copy of LifeProof case anymore. The earpiece looks huge now

Sport straps have arrived on Ebay for relatively cheap.

Has anyone tried them out? I just purchased a brown one for under $10. I figure it's worth a try for that price point. Much easier to stomach than the outrageous $49 Samsung wants. I guess the biggest concern is whether it'll make my wrist breakout.

I just received a blue one from ebay. Little difficult to clip in, but seems secure once attached. Band is a bit more flimsy than samsung bands. Clasp is shiny instead of a matte. I'm also concerned about what it will do to my wrist. So, I guess we will see.
