Thanks @OneStepAhead​

just got the same case today, and it's definitely a keeper. I tried the Hyperion and Tudia cases but chose the Diztronic because of fit and finish. i also have a bodyguardz tempered glass protector and it fits with case, meaning no rubbing on the lip. with the protector on, the lip is reduced to about 1/4 mm. i removed the bodyguardz because of poor seal around the edges.

I'm waiting for the XtremeGuard Spartan Glass for mine

I agree with this review. The feel of the material is excellent. It adds just enough texture to make sure it doesn't slip out of your hand, without being so grippy that it is tough to get in and out of pockets. I also agree with the comments on the buttons. I think they have a very nice tactile feel and responsiveness to them. I don't use a case often, but when I'm going to be outside on concrete or setting my phone down where it could get knocked over easily, I like to throw a case on it. This one adds very little bulk so I am pretty happy with it. Like the reviewer, I also wish Diztronic had included a cutout for the Motorola "M" dimple, but it is certainly not a deal breaker.

We can wish

I got the diztronic case but don't like it. The raised power button keeps on pressing in my pocket and causes the phone to reboot. I actually got a cruzrlite bugdroid circuit one with cutouts for the buttons. This one is just as good as the diztronic one.

Cases and Screen Protectors

I just ordered my new Moto X 2014, I'm actually getting it for free to replace my old Moto X.
What are some good case and screen protector combinations? I know in the past I've had some trouble with a case AND a screen protector, it's sometimes one or the other. I'd prefer a clear case, but I'll probably end up getting more than 1 anyways.

Just got mine as well here is what I have found so far:
All tempered glass is a waste of money for this model none if it fits right at all due to the rounded edges
I would ASSUME the older plastic style ones MIGHT work better but read they also dont work that well
Most cases that say they are clear are actually frosted and that for me defeats the purpose of customizing the back
So I am going naked screen and hula case and will carry the phone in a belt pouch. Not the perfect solution but for me its acceptable. I would have preferred a strong clear tpu case (most turn yellow), I dont want a hard case, and would have love tempered glass on this but they simply dont adhere correctly.
There you have it the sad but true facts about cases and screen protectors from the research I have done. Hopefully some others in here can give you better news

I don't mind a hard case and not a fan of the glass screen protectors. I like the film ones. My last film protector made it a matte screen and took the glare away. It was fantastic! And it worked with the case. But it's the only smartphone that I've had where screen protector AND case can be used.

I guess no one else has found better solutions. The naked case is a decent hard clear case though expensive and also prone to yellowing

It's either going to be the Gelli Black Frost case or the Hula Bumper case initially. I'm getting one of those for free if I buy a screen protector, which I was going to do anyways.
I just can't get anyone to tell me what one of those cases, if any, work with a screen protector. I've been trying to get someone to answer this question for 2-3 days now. Nobody on earth knows! lol

I have the hula bumper case and i can't see any reason it would interfere at all with a screen protector. When I tried my glass protector it was in combination with the hula. Honestly thought most screen protectors are so think that they can be used with almost any case.

The glass is usually cut thinner, the film isn't always cut thinner and I've had instances where the cases would peel up the edges of the film. How did you like you Hula?

I love the look, not sure it would truly give a huge amount of protection but should protect the edges of the glass on the screen which i read is the most vulnerable part of the phone. It does have a little but of movement when you hold the phone (aka wiggles slightly) but it also adds more grip, i have a plastic backed phone.. Those damn beveled edges, nice concept, nightmare in reality. They are why no glass or other screen protector will truly fit right.

When holding or using the phone its fine. I am also extremely OCD and when it moves/wiggles is like when you just tap the side with your finger you can feel it move very slightly, very slight;y but for me noticeable, but not enough to get rid of the case just makes the phone look awesome.

Also if you can order the hula from case mate rather then moto as moto charges an extra $5 shipping. They are also at times very hard to find in stock anywhere depending on the color you want.

I really like the way that looks. My phone is Royal Blue, White Front, and Red Trim. So it's between a white or red hula case, or the gelli case. I'm leaning towards the Hula for more everyday use I think, and buying another case from amazon for when i need more protection. Or buying the hula and getting a good protecting case from moto's website
I have a coupon code from Moto for $25 off, so Im buying the screen protector and I basically get any case for free.

I use the hulu and a cheap leather holster with belt clip to carry it in. Its extremely cheaply made but fits real well.

I have the Hulu and the Trident Aegis. The plastic on the Hulu cracked at the USB port area (from bending when removed or put on), but it doesn't effect the case

I've been using the Hula bumper and Power Support Brilliant Film screen protector. The edge of the case doesn't contact the screen protector so it doesn't peel.

Weird question, but do you think there's enough give with the Hula case where it would fit around the Moto X in a thin TPU case? I like the TPU cases but worry about the protection or lack thereof. Just wondering if it'd be possible to use them and occasional put the Hula Case around them for extra protection. Of course the buttons probably wouldn't work then...

You wont be able to use the two together, to much of a lip on the back with the hula case. Even if you did somehow fit it on the tpu would never touch the back of the phone just the lip around the edge. TPU will likely give more protection then hula but hula will likely give more grip then a tpu case.

New to the X, is it worth while getting a screen protector? Case is on its way, but with Gorilla Glass 3, is it truly worth the extra to cover the screen? Probably will end up with one but wanted some other opinions!

That is completely up to you but I can tell you this based on my research and personal experience:
There is not a tempered glass screen protector on the market for the 2014 that adheres properly. Not one of them works well and thus dont bother with those. The 2014 tapered edges on the glass are the issue. I have HEARD of similar issues with PET style screen protectors but never messed with those as they never felt right to me.
Lastly everything I have read says those tapered edges o the glas DO make it more prone to crack or brake on a drop so you need SOMETHING to protect the glass edges. Full case, hula bumper, something....

A lot of the cracking that people report is from dropping their phones, not taking the Hula on and off. The Hula is designed to absorb the shock of a drop and it breaks so that the phone does not. Better that your $20 bumper break than your $600 phone.
I take my Hula off and on all of the time and it has never cracked. I think people are dropping their phones and the Hula is doing exactly what it is supposed to do - absorbing the shock, which can result in it cracking instead of your phone.

Recomendation Clear Screen Protector That Does Not Lift/Bunch on Seidio Surface

I purchased a Seidio Surface and Tech Armor clear screen protectors. The problem is that the screen protector fits nearly edge to edge. The pressure from the new double insulated surface cases causes the screen protector to bubble/lift/bunch on the edge in certain places.
I used some scissors to trim the screen protector with some success.
Does anyone have a recommendation for a screen protector that fits within the edges of Seidio Surface?
Thanks.

I purchased the intelliarmor case friendly tempered glass for mine. I have a surface case on the way so I will try these in a couple days and post back.

Are you speaking of film protectors right? By the way how do you like the case? Im trying to decide between the seidio surface and the speck. Are the volume buttomes or power buttons hard to press?

Must be. Unless he trimmed Tempered Glass with his scissors!

I have always used Seidio surfaces cases specifically because they looked good, slim, and they provided decent protection (offered a holster option).
The problem I have found after about 5 phones (Gnex (2), Moto X 2013 (2), S4 (2), and the N6) is that they actually hurt the phone. When I say hurt, they create these little scuffing marks where ever the case comes in contact with the phone. This comes from fine dust/sand and dirt that gets in between the case and phone. I had good results with my N6 as I would take the case off once a week and clean/blow the case/phone.
My Nexus 6 looks good, but not perfect after about 6 months.
I *think* Seidio is on to this effect as all the new phones have a dual TPU soft shell and hard shell. I am hopeful this fixes this issue.
Regarding the buttons, they are harder to press and not perfect. It is certainly functional and not a big issue to me. You do notice it. It doesn't bother me that much since the phone turns on by the finger sensor anyway. I really never use the power button anymore.

The Seidio case and IntelliArmor tempered glass screen protector are a near perfect match. There is just a tiny edge between the glass and the case so you don't have to worry about the case pushing on the glass protector. The glass itself is very nice, I purchased some cheaper tempered glass protectors from Ebay and you can really see the difference. They are very clear and even though they do show fingerprints and smudges, they are way less noticeable than the cheaper protectors I bought.

Moto Z FORCE Cases

Looking into buying a case tonight. Any takers?

Before you read lol this is overkill but Decided to go with tempered glass from Pleson. I've used them before on my Moto X '15 no problems!
Going to see how the tempered glass and clear case work out!

I'm going to give the protector a try only because I want to have a glass screen to slide my finger on. Plus, who needs to worry about scratches, right? I think it'll work out well because the screen seems flat. I'm still deciding if I'm going to get a case or not.

A glass screen protector is a really good idea to improve the feel. I'd try to get away with just a bumper for a case. Full disclosure, I played with them at Verizon yesterday but I don't have one.

Purchased an Otterbox Defender case. I needed tough case and didn't have any experience with heavy duty cases other than Supcase's Unicorn Beetle, Otterbox's Defender, and Trident Case's Kraken. Supcase has one for preorder and I doubt the Trident will release a Kraken case for the Moto Z Droid.
The Defender is what I expected; A durable inside case surrounded by a softer shell. Had the same terrible plastic screen protector as every other Otterbox case. Popped it off the case, removed the adhesive with the edge of a blade.; With a tempered glass screen on the phone itself the fit is a bit snug, but the inner case still closes and everything still lines up correctly so everything is good on that end. What I didn't expect is the belt carrier is actually decent; the phone can attach in every orientation (face up/down, rotated 180 degrees about the face). It adds a bit of bulk, but I will gladly take it over a simple shell or soft case.

Awesome. Is the bumper pretty low-profile? Damn, I thought it might make the Style Shell not usable, bummer. Let us know if you find a case that will accommodate the shell/mods! Can you post pics of the bumper/screen protector? Would love to see real-world pics.

Only one I've found so far that works with mods is one of the official ones from VZW. Appears to be pretty similar to the rest of the bumper cases out there, but twice the price:

Was about to order this exact set up. Questions:
1) The case is all clear right? The pics make it look like the sides are rose gold.
2) Any issues installing the screen protector? I've never had a glass and the reviews say that its prone to bubbles.

No problems it had bubbles but i forced them out.
And glass is the best new craze bro! It's worth it trust me! This screen can crack ice seen it better the tempered glass than a scratched screen.

Both fit and feel like they came from the factory. Very satisfied with both so far. I'll likely also get VZW's bumper "case" for when I'm carrying it around with mods.
[Edit]
After more reading on Verizon's bumper I think I'll hold off until someone else makes a decent mod compatible case.

I use the cimo tpu case. It's cheap, durable, and stylish.

I posted a more complete review in it's own thread, but for belt clip holster types...
Good: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01H2K0M58/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 (Great fit with the Incipio Battery Pack on the phone)
Bad: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01HCN4PB2/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Too long... AGOZ one listed above it perfect length for a naked phone at almost exactly 6 inches of internal length (~15.5 cm). The MND, on the other hand, is about 6.75 inches in length (16.75 cm)... the naked phone swims in that much length.

Video Review: Ringke Fusion Case for Google Pixel XL

Direct link: https://youtu.be/HhxKC9InIk4
This is my unboxing and review of the Ringke Fusion for the Pixel XL. Some comparisons between it and the Spigen Slim Armor also.
The video is a tad long but here are some key points.
Pros:
-It offers a slim design that fits right in between the super thin shells and most cases.
-Clear polycarbonate back lets you see the phone, a key feature of the product
-Buttons are very 'clicky'. You can clearly hear them being pressed.
-The case is also just thick enough to make me feel confident that a drop will not cause any major damage.
-Light weight. I notice a significant weight difference between the Ringke and Spigen
Cons:
-Bezel is not pure black
-Bezel is not offered in the soft touch TPU that is had in previous years
-Feels a tad 'rubbery'

I had one of these cases for my N5X and loved it. I'm very close to pulling the trigger on one for my Pixel XL but I'm concerned about the added bulk. I'm currently running the Google branded grey polycarb/silicone case and while the size is nice the silicone is too sticky. Inserting it and removing it from my jeans pockets is a pain in the ass as it gets stuck to the pocket material. This also results in a fair amount of lint stuck to the case.
Are you able to comment on the amount of added bulk, specifically, the sides of the phone? This phone is just about at the limit of what I can use one handed.

Well, the RIngke Fusion is slimmer than the Spigen Slim armor. And is thinner than the ones make for the N4 and N5. Not sure about the N5X. And this one hasn't gotten stuck in my pocket yet, slides in and out easily. Hope that helps a bit.

Picked it up and installed it today. Perfect. Slim, slides right out of my pocket and really shows off the back of my phone. Ringke might be my goto case manufacturer for now on.

Thinking of picking one up. How is the case holding so far? Any discolouration? Is there "oily" parts on the upper half of the rear of the phone?

No oily parts, no discoloration, no scratches or scuffs and I've dropped it several times already. The clear back will pick up some finger prints if you're chowing down on some french fries or something but nothing crazy and they wipe right off. I had this case on my last phone for about a year and they hold up great.

How big is the lip around the front? If I was planning on using a tempered glass screen protector with this case, would the TGSP touch the ground when I lay the phone face down?

The front lip nearly lays flush with my Zagg screen protector on the left and right side of the phone. However, along the top and bottom, the lip sticks out a bit further, maybe 2-3mm. This way, if you put your phone face down on a flat surface, like a table or desk, the glass won't make contact with it.
