Mi mix - wallet case - Xiaomi Mi MIX Accessories

So, I ordered a Mi Mix from Gearbest, at, what I think, a good price. It will be a subsitute for my Nexus 6, which still works fine.
After reading some rewiews, I can tell that Mi Mix would be a little fragile. I would love to use the phone without any protection, but propably best to add a case of some sort.
I ordered a TPU regular case and a wallet case. Up front, I would believe wallet case adds most protection, since both sides are covered.
Anyone here used wallet case before?

I just received this case and its really quite nice and perfect for the Mix. Its a little tight but after a few times it is a perfect fit. Very nice build.

I need a good case with a bumper

I bought one off of eBay and it covers the LED and like all of the sensors (and yes it specifically said "For Samsung GS4!), so I already got a refund. I want a good durable case that will protect my screen from cracking if I happen to drop it. So what do you all recommend?! Thanks!!
Obliq xtreme pro or uag case. Not too bulky but they give good protection.

I originally had a Tech21 D30 impact snap case which was pretty good but it did not protect the screen that well so I bought a speck case. It is fantastic and protects the whole of the phone without covering any sensors. I had one on my iphone 4S and it lasted well. The case scratches a bit but it is better than the phone getting scratched. The iphone was like new when I removed it from the case.
Cant recommend the speck highly enough. Not the cheapest cover but well worth the money. I got mine off of amazon so good price as usual.

Spigen Rugged Armor Mi A2 Case

Hey folks;
Just got a Spigen Rugged Armor delivered from Amazon (http://a.co/8BgQCag ) for the Mi A2 and I have to say, I really like it. I go through a lot of cases for my phones and it's not often I pop one on and really like it right away (I have this same case for my Pixel 2 XL and I like the version they made for the Mi A2 better).
Paid for this out of my own pocket in case anyone was wondering lol.
What I like:
- feels premium and nice in the hand. Has a nice matte feeling.
- does not make the phone feel thick or heavy.
- a good lip around the front screen. My screen is bare, but should accommodate a glass screen protector IMO. See my picture below for the lip.
- good lip around the camera
- easy to access the fingerprint sensor
- lots of room around the ports
- buttons are very clicky and feel great to use! I hate cases that make the buttons feel mushy or hard to press, and this case has a very satisfying firm feeling when pushing the buttons.
Potential Con:
- not the grippiest case. It is not slippery but the case is smooth all around and some people will want something grippier. I have had cases that I refuse to use because of the lack of grip and I don't have a concern here, but I'm just being picky. Case feels great to me.
- matte-textured cases might not be for everyone, as they can show some scratches and scuffs over time.
See pics below. Light was not great but I tried to use the reflections to highlight parts of the case people will want to see. The Mi A2 won't be my daily driver so I won't be able to speak to the case's ability to stand up to scuffs anytime soon.
I'm thinking about buying it too. Since there's not so much good cases for A2.
How's the case protect the camera? Does the case make the phone not bumpy anymore when you put it down? Thanks!

Lots of protection around the camera. I think one of the pics shows the lip. The lip around the camera does protrude further than the rest of the back of the case if you look at it horizontally, so it still rocks a little when laid down (but not as much as when its naked).
Hope that helps!
Could you suggest a tempered glass screen protector that fits perfectly with this case?

No idea. I don't use one.
Just got 2 cases from Amazon for my A2. I like them, they are both matte type. As mentioned though, they look nice initially, but I'm afraid the scuffs will detract from that in a bit.
And you can't really clean them I don't think. If you rub too hard or long it seems to remove the matte coating and makes it shiny. We'll see how it goes.
These are the 2 at Amazon:

I have bought Spigen Rugged, it does its work and really protective
I have this case as well and it is fantastic. Good build quality and protects the most important parts of the phone. Also the price is spot on, not too expensive consider how good it is.
I have also this case and I think its the best one for this phone (for now)
I have this case too and it's really good.
The only little flaw is its slight curve in the volume keys zone.
I don't know if it's a general "issue" or not.
Nilkin frosted case or this? Also which screen protector would work in combination with Spigen case?

Spigen, of course.
I bought this case along with my Mi A2. This case is absolutely awesome! Best choice for Mi A2.
amazon.com or amazon.ca don't have this anymore....... where i can buy it in canada?
Aixuan case is great for me A2
This Spigen Rugged Armor case is actually bad. The case is very slippery and makes you prone to dropping your phone, I would not recommend this case to anyone!
The PZOZ Shockproof case is a far superior option.

Thats not true.
Just bought the mentioned case 3 days ago for my Mi A2. My phone now felt grippy to be held by either hand. Yes, the soft touch at the back surface is really prone to scratch. It is not encouraged to put in the pants pocket with keys.

I have been using this cover for over a month now and I actually like it . Although it makes the phone a little bit bulky but its very protective . It saves the camera bump on the phone and protects the screen too.

Case to loose the camera bump

As said by the title, could you list the cases here thick enough that would hide the camera bump enabling the phone to lie flat on the back.
Both cheap and expensive ones are welcome.

That's the one I have, in black. It really gets smudgy from oil on fingers pretty easily, but I still like it. Have cleaned it a couple times with rubbing alcohol and it seems to be holding up.
It's very thin and it stays on well. Doesn't hide the Cam bump completely, pretty close.

Yeah, I was looking at that one locally, but I'm not completely sold on the color since the phone is black and the case is blue, but since it's like €5, I'm willing to make a compromise for a short while. There is also a red and a gray version so I maybe opt for one of those.

Looks nice, but it says that it has a 0.3mm bump so I'll pass. Even tho that's a pretty small bump I want it completely flat.

The review says that the camera still isn't covered completely so you might pass on this as well.

I think I bought the same case you have, but from Aliexpress. If you want to look for it, search "Mi A2 Carbon Cover" and you'll find it.I bought mine from the store "Shop3983011 Store".
It's cheaper there but it takes way more to arrive, however I don't mind waiting.

The case with a good case.

What case do you use for the P30 Pro?
Of course you want the nice back of the phone to be visible.
But you also want protection.
And a built-in option for a magnetic car mount would be great to.
Show here the covers/cases you have found, tried and love (or hate)
I just ordered the Spigen Neo Hybrid. I have used Spigen cases for the last 2 years and the quality is outstanding.

Hi, I too have very good experience with Spigen, as they use thick material in order to protect the lenses on the back side. Never had any problems with their cases on Huawei since my first mate-9 (bought a new one every year, mainly because of the camera and dual-sim ).
Got this one already but havent seen my newly ordered P30pro yet here in Spain:

I always buy Spigen since 5-6 years.
Good this one since Tuesday.
Quite satisfied as usual [emoji6]

This is the one Im thinking on buying. Doesn't cover up the colour, magnetic for phone holders and has. Ring so you don't drop it. Looks good?

Stock Silicon Case from Huawei in route from amazon.co.uk.... it's like the iPhone case made by Apple.... Lint and everything tends to stick to it but your hand does as well plus great overall protection... I'm getting the black phone so putting the black case is no big loss... main reason to "bet on black" and not the other crazy colors then worry about sporting a clear after market case or caseless.

It looks nice but I ordered a blue phone so don't want to hide it.
I ordered one of the cheapy magnetic glass ones from ebay. Seems well built etc. but waiting for phone to arrive tomorrow before I make a comment on it.
I ended up getting this one.
Olixar for Huawei P30 Pro Bumper Case - Hard Tough Slim Cover - [Clear Panel] Design for P30 Pro (2019) - Shock Protection - Black https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07MNH8FKB
I was going to get one from AliExpress. They looked nice, but we're cheap so probably thin and no protection. Didn't sem right paying a couple bucks for something that is protecting a $1000 phone.
I like this one because you still see the colour and it has good bumper protection if you drop your phone.
I bought the Huawei silicone case, just to have something until I will find a case I really like, and it is standard matte silicone, nice color (I got the blue one), I prefer these matte silicone cases over the glossy plasticky ones, but only as last resort. I paid 15 EUR, which is tiny bit lower than Samsung would charge, which is also nice, but the quality is not as good. Under the power button I can see a thin line where the silicon will slowly tear up, and it has a little bump underneaeth and generally doesn't look and feel very well on the right side.
I just wait for Nilkin air/frosted cases to arrive in my shop, after years of spending money, big money, on cases, I find these cheap Nilkin cases to be the best alternative if there is not a good leather or alcantara OEM alternative. I have both frosted and Air case for my note9, ane the compact size and grip/feel of Frosted cases, and the comfort and design of air cases for 5 damn EUR is unbeatable. I usually also slap a dbrand skin on my phones, don't want to always carry it in a case, but with this huge camera bump on p30p I will likely always have it cased.
I like a case to be not too thick and ruin the shape and feel so until I got my Honor V10 I never used a case but now need one due to risk of child.
Currently I have a semi solid shell and I ordered a similar fro P30P to see how it looks and feels.
I also ordered a couple of different Spiegen cases and one of those open back ones that wraps around the corners.
I'll try them all and return what I don't like.
I don't want to pay €35 for an official Huawei one.
Anyone fancy using skins to cover their P30 Pro? Hit us up.
Spigen for ever! For my latest phone (S9+ and now P30 Pro) I have chosen the Ultra Hybrid Crystal (back in hard plastic and edges in TPU with corners bumpers). With Spigen tempered glass too, the P30 pro is now inside an iron barrel...
Using Spigen Neo Hybrid and i think it is great

Hi Rizzo!
Take a look at Spigen Slim Armor! It has good protection of the photo lenses and a built in stand. Mine has a number L37CS25934
I have used this for quite many years without any trouble.

Accessories Cases - Which One?

I normally buy an OEM case for my phones and will probably stick to this, however I am always open to change.
So do you normally get a case for your phone? If so which one?
Or do you not bother with a case and just go "vanilla"?
Let me know your thoughts and if you can lets see some pictures of your case if you have one.
I'd prefer going without a case but manufacturers make them so damn slippery I can't risk it.
I always get a case from aliexpress besause it's cheap and does the job. also screeen protectors
I've had my S23+ for just over a week now and this case seems to be the right choice considering price and protection.
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BPLVT925
Red2Fire Designed for Samsung Galaxy S23 Plus Case, 2X[9H Tempered Glass Screen Protector + HD Camera Lens Protector][Military Grade Drop-Proof] Dual Layer Heavy Duty Shockproof Case-Black​
$17.99
For people who love minimal cases, the Spigen Thin Fit for the S23+ is really nice ! Good protection without bulk.
However I have also ordered the "memumi Ultra Slim" on amazon, it looks like something between a "cover" and a case.... I should get it in the weekend.
Caseology Parallax or Ringke Onyx?
I got 2
https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0BJSNQSMC?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details
and the official soft silicone one in lavender from the samsung site. Both are pretty good. £34 for a case is pretty steep though for the official one.
I ended up getting a Samsung original black leather case
I went for original samsung leather green case and it is awesome. I got code when buying it on samsung site lowering price of case to 1$ so I took it. Probably wouldnt go for it if I need pay full price, but its definetely best case I had but I always used low price spigen/ aliexpress cases.
I bought the Eiger Avalancha
Eiger Protection - Schweiz
www.eigerprotection.ch
But the Fingerprint is not working so im still searching for a Full body case where fingerprint is working.
Also, the Sound Output is pretty dull, and the on-Phone calls Volume has to me on the Top to hear good. In Terms of Security, you can't get something better. Fully Closed, water-resistant and so on.
Makes the phone little heavier but I don't mind that at all.
