I loved my cheapo wallet case for my ZF2, now I have a ZF3, and would like to find a good wallet case for it. The one I bought off amazon was truly a POS, and haven't really found any other ones.
Anybody run across anything?

Not sure if you are really looking for the "wallet" part, or more just a slim flip cover, it appears ASUS sells a sview like flip cover that looks pretty nice.
"ZenFone-3-Deluxe-View-Flip-Cover-ZS570KL" (can't post links yet)
This is a real nice device, need a replacement for my Note 3, but can't risk spending $500 on a device that might not see root or any development.

I have been shopping around, and it seems like the T-Mobile stores carry some good cases, but for the price (at leat 24.99) it seems to be like the same quality of the amazon cases that go for a few bucks. Will the Amazon snap on cases scratch my g2?
Also anyone had experience with the zagg/skinomi complete protection? I love the aluminum feel of the g2, but it seems like it's not worth the risk to have it naked
Thanks!
I purchased the clear kickstand case off of amazon and it my favorite because its clear so i get to see the aluminum but its till protected, my case was like 8.99 instead $25 and came i n T-Mobile packaging

Oh thanks, would you say it wouldnt scratch the phone if I take it out? Also does it add much bulk? Thanks again.

You can try looking at the other thread:

$5 for a hard plastic case that does not add bulk at all.
I have a video review in there as well comparing the Gel Casing vs. the cheap one. It's in Page 3 somewhere.
i posted some pictures of the T-Mobile Kick Stand case here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=801842
I also bought the cheap case mentioned in the reply above me, and i like the feel of the cheaper one much more. It's alot slimmer and I like the rubbery feel more than the hard plastic shell. I do like clear though, so I hope they have a rubbery, clear one released -- i had something like that for the Nexus phone and loved it.

I very much liked the little neoprene sleeve from the Nexus One.
I can't seem to find one for the Skyrocket.
Has anybody been able to find a sleeve that fits this phone?
Nobody? Based on the views, I assume there is interest.
Any other phones with similar dimensions that have a sleeve that fits?

I can't say for certain but the HD2 used to come with a sleeve, the dimensions might be similar enough for it to fit in it. You could probably find one of those for cheap on eBay.

Sadly, the HD2 is too small. the Skyrocket is huge ...
Nobody found a solution?
sorry. I posted a link to the GNote. I found a sleeve for the GNote on ebay. I am sure you could find one for the Skyrocket on ebay?
Otterbox has the just rubber sleeve(Impact series) and it still helps keep the phone protected good and you can also find the not so expensive ones at the little carts in mall sometimes. I have had all of them! Took the Damn defender back because the front screen cover built in was garbage and taking it in and out was a *****! The cheap one works but not as good as the Otterbox impact! Plus I can pull battery quick if I need to! Otterbox impact!

I've had this for a couple of weeks now. It's a good fit but I wish it were just a touch longer. I'm happy with it.
I have this combo on order. Being the first case for my S4 I am hoping it's my last
I have not seen many reviews online for this case, particularly for our S4. I was hoping someone can provide their feedback. I like the functional idea of being able to snap the phone off and on giving you an option to use the phone without holding your entire wallet to your face. I also am complementing this case with Spigen's Glas.tr screen protector. I hope this combination does justice to the $99 spent
I used this case for my note 2. Actually. Its still on it. The wallet part never really folded right. Just got in the way note than anything else. But the car part has a nice grip to it making it very easy to hold on to. I wouldn't recommend using it as ur everyday wallet. Not enough room and it will buldge. Hope this doesn't disappoint but the case is awesome

The one feature that I have been looking for in a wallet case is the ability to easily remove the phone. The Spigen pricing is very steep but I do hope that it works out and it's the last case I buy.
Interested in see alternatives though (haven't seen anything in my research), particularly wallet cases that have the exact same functionality of removing the phone when needed.
The Amazon reviews are far from stellar. Just read them, and for 55 bucks my money would be better spent elsewhere.
For most phones and tablets it's pretty easy to find decent cases, iPhone and iPad Users are spoilt for choice, Samsung useres can also pick and choose how they like, even for the Nexus 5X and 6P one can find an abundance of cases in any color shape or form. But not for the Pixel C - doubtless this is because of the slender market for this tablet. I have been looking all over the net for a simple TPU case for the Pixel C, you know the type of silicone case that just covers the back of the device but not the screen. All I could find was universal folio cases or smart cases with a lid. I even tried my luck on searching Chinese wholesale but no luck. If anyone has come across a simple back cover only TPU or hard shell case that only covers the back please let me know.
Thanks so much.

I also want a TPU case and haven't found anything anywhere - ebay, amazon, vendor sites
This is exactly what I'm looking for as well. All I can find are folios. :/

yep. this. i want the rubber bumper case type cover because the back of the device is so slick that it tends to want to slide off my lap. also, it would be nice to have something to soften the bezel edge because it can dig into your hands if you're holding it for a long time.
Totally agree. There seems to be a Chinese design for a bumper case, however it doesn't seem possible to order it at the moment. Anyone else had any luck finding one ?

Came across this guy that might fit the bill:

No reviews and takes forever to ship. If it were cheaper I'd definitely take the jump, but I'm a bit skeptical...

I already contacted them, the description is wrong. They sell "normal" pu leather folios, some are bundled with headphones or screen protectors. They removed the product i mentioned in my request but all other bundles are still listed with the wrong description.
what a freakin' tease. i would have loved to have had that clear tpu case.
All products mentioned are found on US Amazon.com
So far the only TPU case I have seen that's for Pixel C <--- does NOT fit Pixel C as customer lefted a photo review on the product he received.
http://www.amazon.com/Junsi-Leather-Headphone-Google-Tablet/dp/B01CQTFSKO
I do not have it in my possession to test the fitment yet, just wanna get the words out with others that's looking for one.
(granted the demo photos doesn't show pixel C in it, but some other products. Just hope these China vendors get the fitment right.)
Other interesting alternatives I have seen so far is the full body coverage skin
http://www.amazon.com/Skinomi%C2%AE-TechSkin-Protector-Replacement-Anti-Bubble/dp/B017L0UKOW
Personally I'm currently using Moko's folio cover as the additional thickness it added is still deem acceptable to me and does the job.

Hey there, the skinomi skins work just fine. A bit of a pain to apply but not too bad, just watch their intructional Video. But this is just a Skin and no case, so no drop protection really.

That's exactly my concern also. At most it'll just prevent scratches on the original metal body, wouldn't prevent / provide enough protection from possible little bumps / drops during daily uses.

Exactly, a Skin is not enough, a Folio Case will protect the Pixel C allround but I really dislike the front Display flap. Very annoying. I opted for buying the skinomi techskin combined with this http://www.amazon.com/Booncover-Uni...=UTF8&qid=1463390156&sr=8-2&keywords=Reboon+l
This is expensive though. Would have much prefered a simple bumper case. Grrr.
Negative on the potential TPU case I shared the other day.
A customer that got the product, left a photo review saying it aren't the right fitment.........
http://www.amazon.com/Junsi-Leather-Headphone-Google-Tablet/dp/B01CQTFSKO
This is frustrated, I can't find no bumper case for this device.
i thought about trying to find a similar shaped tablet and using a tpu case for it and i would just make my own camera/speaker holes. not the prettiest solution but i think it would get the job done. the closest thing i could find to the pixels dimensions was the galaxy tab 10.1. so i'm thinking about picking up this case:

Let u s know how well it fits. Thank you and all the Best
I ordered a cheap chinese tpu case for a samsung galaxy tab 10.1 but it does not fit.
The corners of the Samsung device are rounder than the pixel c. Height and width are ok.
I had to remove the corners of the case, now the tablet fits, but the corners are needed to give the case stability and keep it around the tablet.
Without the corners the case slips down of the tablet easily. I hoped it would fit but without the stability it is useless for me...
I suppose I should have done some more research before buying this phone, but I can't find the protective case in stock anywhere. Makes since with this being an old phone. Nevertheless does anyone know where I can find this case, or does anyone have a blueprint for a 3d printed case
I just ordered this case
Should be arriving in a week or so. I'll let you guys know how it turns out.
So Did you ever get the case and how did it work out

Sorry for super duper late response lol. It was pretty fragile. Not a very flattering look with the case. I'm not an expert with 3d printing so perhaps there's a way to streamline the design a bit more. I ended up just applying a skinomi full body skin on mine, combined with a fabric pouch.

A listing is up in eBay https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F123848778261
Looks like the seller is from Russia though. Plus I'm sure as hell not buying a case for that much. It's basically half of the price of the phone itself.
