Bumper Case or Full Back Case

Hi Guys,
Do you think thr bumper case for Nexus 4 is good compare to full back case ?
I am currently using Capdase Touch case as shown on the link
http://www.capdase.com/en/product5.php?cid=1&bid=23&mid=3737&pid=34328
However i really love the looks og nexus 4 and dont want to cover the beauty but i also want to protect the device.
To the nexus 4 users who have this dumper case, pls give your comment.
Thanks.

as far as i know a case weakens the signal.

Bumper + dbrand skin ftw :good:

Well a bumper will pretty much just protect the screen and back from laying flat on the ground and a full back case will protect from falls. If you want a little more protection I recommend the full back case

Ringke fusion sounds like the way to go for you. I have both. I am currently on the bumper and dbrand custom skin setup.

I also have the ringke fusion and its good.

This is false.

[Q] need a dustproof case for the nexus 5.

sorry for the bad english...
im an idf soldier and im constantly in the field and exposed to dust and sand... also the phone is exposed to hit and falls...
im looking for a case that will protect from those things... i saw the BALLISTIC Nexus 5 SG MAXX Case but it has some flaws like in the screen protector that is not fully closed...
is there any other cases? actually the perfect case for me is this: youtube.c om/ watch?v=18c8gEoeJ9Y that combines battery and protection...
thanks..

I think the only way to keep the dust out would be to get a waterproof case like this.

i've seen it and there is no such case for the nexus 5... altough there is a good case " CONVERT® with Metal Kickstand Combo" for the nexus but it lacks the front protection...

Any help would be great !!

Yes mate!
You'll receive a secret code as I told you..
If you don't get it inside the box, just return back the item bro
Please read reviews before buying this case.. Because this case makes your nexus quite bulky, but yes it provides good amount of protection(protection depends on the angle of fall) .. I had read that it has narrow hole for headphones!
Good luck mate

Hey brother,
I'm using Spigen Ultra Hybrid Case.. It adds weight to the device.. But you'll feel that weight for some days as till date you used or never used any such kinda heavyweight case!
My advice for you is to go for it if money ? is not a problem for you It's much better than Original Google Bumper Case..
Most of the Spigen Cases are shipped with free Scratch Guard! Just check out whether it is shipped in Slim Armor case or not..

I have already ordered Nillkin Amazing H+ Glass Protector Review , money is not an issue as long as it won't be a headache due to bulkiness, so what do you suggest ? should I go for Spigen Slim Armor ?

Yes brother, go for it
Do remember, Slim Armor case is not transparent from back, if you want to show off your nexus device to public, probably you can't do it ? That was the reason why I bought Ultra Hybrid Case..
My Nexus has fallen down 2-3 times from 2m height(The surface was flat), no damage till date on device as well as on the case!
I don't use any glass protector for my device, just one case and it's more than enough for me and my usage!
Good luck mate

Alright !!! But since i have ordered glass protector.. Do you think i still need slim armor ?

As you said that money ain't a problem for you, just order the case.. It's one of the best cases for nexus 5..
If you will apply both on your device, it'll actually become bulky and you'll feel it when you'll be in tracks [emoji14]
Cases are more better than glass protectors.. If you consider Spigen Cases, it'll protect your device from both the sides unlike glass protectors..
Think practically and use any ONE of them if weight is your problem [emoji1]

Perfect !! Since I have ordered glass protector, I'll stick to it I'll go for slim armor later !!
Thanks alot bro !! I wish i could triple thanks you.

Anyone heard of CIMO or CASEFORMER cases? Looks like they are coming.

So, trolling Amazon a bit I found there is a placement for cases by a company called CIMO.
http://www.amazon.com/Cimo-Shockproof-Absorbing-Protection-Huawei/dp/B015EHQQUG/
Says
Nexus 6P Case, Cimo [Shockproof] Case Heavy Duty Shock Absorbing Dual Layer Protection Cover for Huawei Google Nexus 6 (2015) - Orange

So I went looking for some other cases by them with the same characteristics...
http://www.amazon.com/Cimo-Shockproof-Absorbing-Protection-Samsung/dp/B00XZGQ992/
http://www.amazon.com/iPhone-Cimo-Shockproof-Absorbing-Protection/dp/B00MNI2NDY/
Here's the stuff from CASEFORMERS, with kickstands too...
http://www.amazon.com/Google-Nexus-CASEFORMERS-Ultra-Shockproof/dp/B016CBCMX8/
Not bad looking at all, decent reviews too. Just thought I'd share.

Can't say for certain, but I think the first time I saw their products was when I started looking for 6p.

Nice. Can't wait to see what they'll look like.

Caseformers looks nice especially with the kickstand.

I have a cimo wave tpu case I use on my nexus 6 for a few months now.

What do you think about it?

Is a decent case and my phone has survived drops without mishap. Like some clear tpu cases yellowing can appear but I find soaking in Windex or a mild bleach solution helps. Besides they are only $7 on amazon so I bought a few.

Pouch sleeves?

I'm looking to buy a sleeve pouch for my Nexus 6P. In the past there's always been a few threads with good suggestions, but I haven't seen any so far.
Last year I ordered a pouch off of Etsy from the popular seller begoos and it worked extraordinary well with a TPU case. So this year I did the same thing only when the pouch arrived I realize that it's a much tighter fit than last year for the Nexus 6 and am unable to fit it into pouch with the TPU case on.
So, has anybody ran acrossed any good sleeve pouches that will be able to fit a TPU case is well?
I really like the wallet sleeve pouches but it doesn't necessarily have to be a wallet. Thanks

I want to know the same thing... Been looking for weeks now..

I use my Etsy Begoos one that I bought for my Nexus 6 last year and it works perfectly

What's the inside material on this one and can you confirm that it can hold the 6P AND a tpu case??

Ah an n6 case... Just a little wider, so should fit a 6p and a tpu, I presume... Is it actually tall enough?

My bad, I totally overlooked the part about wanting it to fit with a TPU.
Although isn't the point of the bag to protect the phone when you don't have a case?

This is with my wife's Etsy pouch. I'll take better pictures tomorrow if I get a chance. I purposed used the biggest 6P case I have to show its size. The Supcase only sticks out a little but but my Nexus 6 did as well. I have 3 of these pouches (mine fits it better but I left it in my car) so it fits good enough for it to still use it.

The one I got is like micro fiber inside, not sure if it fits with a case as I don't have one

Thanks for the pics..
I sent a message to the etsy seller begoos and she said they can custom make the size to fit the tpu, so I'll just also ask her to make sure the phone doesn't stick out any.. And also ask if they can make an Velcro enclosure if possible..

My Spigen Ultra Hybrid sirs perfectly flush in my pouch. I'll take pictures of it when I get home today. My original Nexus 6 pouch fun Begoos is a little bigger than the one my wife has so it works much better. Begoos is usually good about working with people. I've purchased a number of pouches from her and never had any issues.

Sounds good, the shipping takes a while from where Begoos is but its worth the wait. My wife has 2 pouches and loves them. You can also request different things like the magnetic closure if you want. I've had my pouch for about a year now and its still doing great.

I ended up ordering this. The iPhone 6/s plus has basically the same dimensions as our phones and a lot of people were saying this pouch has a lot flex to it. If this doesnt work out I'm going to have fitbag custom make me a pouch that fit specifically for a tpu case as they do custom fits.
