I propose a "no stock photos" rule. - Google Pixel XL Accessories

When clicking on an accessory thread titled "XYZ Case" there needs to be some info, experience, recommendation, reviews and/or actual photos of case. I've clicked on several threads here to get nothing but a stock photo and an Amazon link, if that's what I wanted, I would just type "pixel xl case" on Amazon.

I never understood that. No offense but there are pictures if the case all over the internet. If someone mentions an area where there may be a problem then ok, but to ask how it looks in phone doesn't add up. We all have the same phone. It looks the same on every phone ...

I-Blason Missing Item, Poor Customer Service

So I ordered 2 cases from I-blason on July 18, 2013. I looked at a few cases and had purchased me a white body glove but my wife was wanting new cases so I checked out the transformer hybrid that one member of this forum was raving about. It was cheap compared to UAG (I'm getting those) and she loved the pink version. I placed an order that day for the Pink Transformer Hybrid and Blue Armadillo case for our phones. The next day the items were shipped and a USPS tracking number given. I was supposed to receive the items this past Monday the 22 but delivery was delayed a day until Tuesday. What I received was just my Blue Armadillo case in the plasticky shipping wrap and nothing else. I've emailed the company several times and found their phone number through their Amazon store. They've continuously ignored my emails and voice mails (when their voice mail isn't full and they haven't emptied them) with nary a word in over a week. I've filed a complaint with the Atlanta BBB and believe I'll dispute the charges with my bank and VISA. This is shoddy customer service and a real headache for me and my wife. Anyone else experience something like this? I am just writing this for a warning for the future and to see if anyone else has had to deal with this.

I ordered a tablet case from this company on Amazon and it broke within several days. In this case I just returned to Amazon for refund. Hopefully you can get your issue resolved.
I hope so as well although I bought directly from them. Calling several times a day and emailing to no avail. I may need to drive to their HQ lol.

Have you tried taking it up with Amazon? They're usually really good about backing up everything sold there. I too ordered a case from iBlason and it took forever to get my case. They lied about the date it shipped, the date they actually mailed it was a full week after they said they sent it. I had no intention of buying from them again and your experience only re-affirms this.
Believe it or not they actuality responded to my second Facebook post that I made 8 hours ago. That's a positive sign lol

i bought a case from them on amazon on monday and got it today already. it's always better to order from amazon IMO. i returned the case though since i didn't like the texture on it too much and i had no need for holster. but it wasn't a bad case.
Thanks. The Transformer looks good plus my wife loves the pink. I'll be getting us a few cases for variety lol. UAG looks good plus a few others.

I had the same issue also. I had purchased a cover for my Samsung Galaxy Note 3 phone and it took them forever to respond back to my emails and my status would never update to as being shipped and stayed at preparing shipment for 2 weeks. I live in Canada and usually when an item is coming from the US it usually takes 5-8 business days standard and 2 weeks? I sent them an email again and asked about the order? They gave me no explanation and no apologies regarding the order and just responded to my request to cancel the order. What a waste of 2 weeks and was looking forward to getting my cover and will stick with Otterbox and Amazon.ca for my next order, atleast they are reliable!

How is quoting someone's post that you're referring to directly, cluttering up a post?
This isn't a dining room table, or a coffee table. There isn't any clutter when it's text and comments directly responding to, or relating to someone else's post.

Any mod will tell you he same thing I said. If you just make your comment without quoting the entire OP, it is implied that you're talking to the OP or making a general statement or observation. There is no need to quote the entire thing. Quoting is normally used for direct response to something in the thread after the OP. If the OP contains multiple topics, quote what is relevant to your response.

I can understand not wanting people to quote HUGE posts or multiple pictures.
But this is just goofy. C'mon, Man.
Put down the caffeine.
Guys please don't clutter up the thread talking about cluttering up the thread.

All versions of the s4 are exactly the same except for the internal stuff and software but the outside shell is the same.
That seller, sold out and emailed me a refund option.
Another seller, has 2 left at the time of this posting, started at 7 or 8, I bought 1, and looks like they are selling well.
edit -> just rechecked the page, looks like the seller had updated it is selling more. Might just be moving it up pending sales, who knows.

There is a third seller:

Moto says the backs will be changeable. They may offer separate backs in the future.

I was just talking with a Moto rep, to check my order. And I asked about being able to change the backs. They put me on hold for a minute or 2 in order to confirm. And they came back and told me YES the backs will be changeable. They don't sell separate backs now, but may in the future.
I never believe an over the phone agent. They can make so many mistakes, and sometimes don't know the specifications of what the company is selling. They could be referring to the Moto X Play, or could have been just trying to get you off of the line. I'm not saying either of those are the case in the situation, but I won't believe them until I have solid proof.
I talked to an agent that said neither a bumper nor the turbo charger will be available with the phone even though that's been proved otherwise. I don't doubt that the backs aren't changeable if it's damaged, but that's something they'd have to do. It doesn't look like the backs are freely interchangeable however.
Yeah reps really know nothing. Most of us on here will know about stuff than them lol.

I know phone reps become less reliable when taken off script .
But we were talking about my own order, so we clearly were not talking about the Play Edition and given they took some time to check. I just want to hope they are correct. And they could be.

X Play Custom backplate?

I bought my X from carphone warehouse so its just a standard back cover version. The moto maker website only shows a clam shell case available. Any ideas where its possibly to by different backplates for it?
Sent from my XT1562 using Tapatalk
The thread at the top of the list http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x-play/accessories/cover-t3186799 (before you made your post)
has all the information you need. Just wondering if you read through that because the information is already there without this post.
I probably should have clarified that id like to know if there is an option available in the UK. I hate ordering from China for the simple fact I am impatient with the delivery times on there.
I was after a more official item but thanks for pointing the other thread out.
Re-reading that thread I know another reason I didn't bother. They don't fit properly not like the original. But there is a post saying Motorola confirmed they have no plans to sell the backs separately. Shame.

Moment lens case device support poll

Moment has a kickstarter for their new Iphone battery case/standard case with lens attatchment, on the kickstarter page there is a device support poll asking what devices people would like to see the cases made for. I've been dying to slap one of these lenses on my pixel since I got it and would love to have one of the standard cases. If any of you are interested as well go put a vote in.
I would post a link but am unable to because this is my first post here.
It would be pretty awesome if we could get this too. I voted for our phone.
Just voted too

Here's the link to the poll, I've voted.
