I wonder which original case from Oneplus will be the best for Oneplus 6?
I never had Oneplus phone and I don't know this cases.
Could You explain me difference between Bumber Case and Protective Case?
I think about carbon. I would like to choose case that will the best protector for my phone. This is the most important for me. I consider only original cases. I will buy original screen protector too.
From specification I see that Bumber Case is heavier 25g vs 11g. So I think that will be better
I've owned both the OnePlus 3 and the OnePlus 5. In my experience, the bumpers are no more then just fancy shells for the phone that don't exactly feel like the offer that much protection to the phone, and I ended up buying Tudia full body cases for both phones. If you want a OnePlus case though, go with the Silicone one - had that for my OP5 and I loved it honestly. However, I feel that OnePlus cases are more crafted for their style than they are for the protection they offer (which is quite depressing, as the Sandstone cases felt so nice to hold in your hand), so you might want to consider looking elsewhere for a case.
As for screen protectors, the tempered glass ones by OnePlus themselves are usually the best, but a lot of cases don't work with them (including the Otter Box case offered by OnePlus). Third party TGSPs are cheaper, but they aren't 3D and often let dust slip in underneath. I ended up slapping a OnePlus TGSP onto my OP3 and then adding a Tudia full body case with a built in screen protector, and that thing survived so much abuse (and is still kicking actually).
I actually had the Carbon case with a OP tempered glass screen protector on my OP5, and the case did nothing to absorb the impact from a fall at work and shattered the glass. The case was nothing more than a hard plastic shell honestly.
But that's just my two cents
I'm gonna wait for third parties first. Till then a poach is the way for me.

Get the OnePlus carbon bumper, top quality made by EVUTEC. The bumper case protects more. The normal case does not protect the top, bottom and buttons that well.
@Ph0enix_216
Thank you for your wide useful opinion.
Do somebody know will be spigen neo hybrid for Oneplus 6?
I used this case for note 3 and was great as a protective case.
Saved few times my phone.
I think I will buy original case during buying phone because free shipping is from 100 euro so it's better to buy with phone.
But if spigen will be good I will buy too
Would love to get the iron man case from the avengers edition

Looks like the 3rd parties have already gotten started! Just had a look now for mine, and seems like Orzly already have a few up on amazon.
Some are on pre-order but others seem to already be in stock already. (unbelievable how quick some of these 3rd parties are getting organized these days).
The phone's barely been announced!
Anyways, here are the ones I've found from them:
Their version of the silicone (I think they call theirs a FlexiCase)
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07D3Y8WPP/&keywords=OnePlus+6+case
Their version of the bumper (they call theirs a Fusion Bumper as it has a clear back so you can see the phone whilst still having the decent protective rim in an actual color)
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07D4MDMD1/&keywords=OnePlus+6+case
The Wallet Case (this is the type that I normally get, so I can use the built in stand for watching videos on my phone)
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07D3Y246N/&keywords=OnePlus+6+wallet+case
The Lux Case (this style I've not seen before).. Looks like it does the credit card storage thing, but is more of a leather back than the full wallet. (I kinda never use the credit card storage anyway, so it's like they removed the bit I actually use (ie the stand), but kept the bit I don't use (the credit card bit!) haha. Would probably be useful for carrying rail cards though.
http://www.amazon.com/dp/B07D4P3BGQ/&keywords=OnePlus+6+leather+Case
I normally get my glass screen protectors from them, as they're usually a better fit for the OnePlus phones, but I can't seem to find them yet. But if anybody spots them, let me know.
Like Orzly bumper one. so far looks best solution as I don't see transparent original case yet.
Am Gonna pre-order that case and be happy

You might as well go for a OnePlus case if you're grabbing the phone anyway. You can usually get it cheaper I'd you buy it bundled with a screen protector or something, too.
Spigen typically does make cases for OnePlus devices, but if I remember correctly, they took *forever* to release one for the OnePlus 5. I don't remember seeing one for sale until at least six months after the OP5 launched.
I like the looks of nylon case, and expect it to feel great in hand , if I go by reviews. It also offers decent protection and is the most unique OnePlus case this year IMO

It looks like they actually offer some decent protection this year too — they cover all edges of the phone, whereas previous cases tended to leave the top and bottom edges exposed.

I agree the nylon case is stunning. But don't forget to factor in it is PC+TPU case while the Carbon Fiber is only a TPU case. But because of this, the Nylon case is 58.5% thinker and 28% heavier than the Carbon Fiber one. Now we are talking about millimeters and grams, so they aren't going to be drastically different, but it swayed me.
Nylon. It has a soft touch lining and that rugged shell - also full coverage. Looks nice too.
I got my 6 a day early and also got the nylon case. Very, very cool.
I ordered carbon Bumber Case. I think carbon will be better, more durable material thank nylon one.
In case of drop for example

Is it really thick and bulky, or do you think it's nice? I don't want something like those old OtterBox cases that everybody had which would turn a phone into a brick haha

I love the design of this phone so I want the slimmest possible case I can find. Can anyone recommend a very slim case?

You could get the official ones by HTC. They take minimalism to a whole new level bit the downside is its so expensive for a flimy piece of plastic. Or the feather cases by Incipio.

i ordered the black & gray ROCK cases and the case mate barely there case. the ROCK cases look nice but are definitely made for the International X. although they fit the One XL, the camera opening is about1-2 mm lower at the top. not a big issue for me at all. however, the case-mate fits perfectly and looks best! i like how the sides are angled for a perfect fit, e.g., fits the One XL's angled sides like a glove. the obvious downside is the limited protection, e.g., exposed top and bottom.
i sold both ROCK cases to a friend who has the International X and kept the case-mate. i added a couple of pics that (hopefully) show how slim and form-fitting the case-mate case is...
im going with the amzer tpu luxe arigle case had it with captivate and like it and did its job and looks good

I liked the case for the whole 5 seconds it lasted me
Funny part is that I was planning on spray painting it black cos that case only comes in orange/blue. And while i was taking the case off it snapped on me. Good thing is AT&T warranties out accessories for a whole year. I have a feeling im going to be using that warranty a lot.
You get what you ask for looking for a slim case. They don't offer any protection at all. Which for me is fine. I just don't like how hot the phone gets without a case. I ended up getting the full body zagg.

i broke my orange version of this case too. if you like to swap out cases every other day (like me) this case may not be for you because you will eventually break it, no doubt about it. i've been luckier with my blue case as it hasn't snapped on me yet.
Just ordered an Amzer Shellster case found here:
http://www.amazon.com/Amzer-AMZ9380...PA1Y/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1338902558&sr=8-1
It's not the most "minimalist" case out there but it seems sturdy enough for repeated application and removal (which is important to me since I use multiple cases). It also comes with a holster, which most slim cases do not. It also looks like it offers great protection for the camera.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kMdD2Q35_XA
I'll put up some pics and do a "mini-review" if anyone is interested.
So the case-mate barely there doesn't specify on amazon whether its for the international or att version. However I have heard that it fits ours just fine. Can anyone verify?
And also does it come with a screen protector?
Sent from my HTC One X using XDA
Received my Amzer Shellster yesterday. I can confirm that it fits the AT&T version of the HOX.
Pros
Accurate Fit
Cutouts line up perfectly
Protects camera
Front lip keeps screen from touching when face down
Comes with a holster
Cons
Minamilistic case means it provides less protection than traditional cases
Does not cover top and bottom
Soft touch finish can be a little slippery
While the holster uses "pressure" to hold the phone it does not have an actual mechanism to secure it
Overall, the case is really nice for what it's meant to do. It is advertised as a slim case and it provides all the protection that it entails.
I have included some pics in the attachments showing the cutouts and fit, as well as the holster and front lip.
I got the case mate barely there. Overall I really like it, I wish it was a little thicker because the camera still sticks out a little.

We don't recommend the Ultra Thin Air with the AT&T version as this case was originally designed for the international version. The AT&T version of the phone is slightly longer. While the case my be compatible, it may not be a perfect fit."

Hey fellas,
I used to post my reviews over on the Galaxy S3 forums (and the Galaxy Nexus, S2 and Nexus S forums before that), but since I've recently gotten my Nexus 4, I decided to start my coverage as soon as possible. As most of you know, brand name cases are still hard to find but should be released in the next few weeks. I decided to pick up a temporary case in the TPU S-Case and wanted to share my thoughts. This is a simple TPU case that offers contrasting matte and glossy portions to create a cool design.
The case offers a moderate amount of protection without adding too much bulk and is extremely affordable at only 5$! I'm happy to take a look at any cases you'd like me to, so feel free to recommend anything! I will be posting a ton more content on the channel. Check out the full review of the S-Case below and let me know what you think:
I remember your vids from the Nexus S and Galaxy Nexus forums. Nice to see you covering accessories for the N4 as well
as for the case, I'm tempted to order one because of the cheap price tag to hold me over until the Rearth slim gets here but then again it might arrive the same time as my N4

This is just a piece of rubber bulky trash..
My case came in yesterday from kaycase. I got it for .99 cents!!!
There were several brands selling these on Amazon for various prices. It's hard to pick when there are almost no reviews, because no one has their phone. o.o I ended up buying one from "YESOO" (best name ever) that, for ~$6, came with a stylus too. Sure, why not? I like that they are providing clear options, to keep the N4 sparkle effect, but it's sad that basically no one is making a fully clear case yet. It's all the S design. (Normally that'd be great, but the N4 doesn't need window dressing. ) The Rearth ones look really nice too (very Feather-like) but no clear ones.

I actually have this case for my HTC Glacier (MyTouch 4G). It's been a very durable case that has protected my phone very well (from 8-10 foot drops from a ladder). I'm a construction worker, and this case has outlasted more expensive models from Trident Case. There is one thing I would like to point out to anyone that is thinking of picking this case up. As a construction worker, I'm not always in the cleanest of environments. This case will allow dirt, dust, and sand to collect between the case and the back of the phone. The metal back of the Glacier is very ugly to look at now because of this. As anyone who has looked into Gorilla Glass 2 knows, sand is it's enemy. This is true of all materials though, dirt and sand will wreck havoc on anything. Just a heads up to anyone that's "hard" on their device. Otherwise, I have no complaints, especially the fall protection this case has proven.
I drop my phone a lot.
I ordered one of these from ebay, the clear and frost one for $5 as well. On amazon a lot of the cases were around $10.

I wonder if one of those front-and-back screen protectors would help with that? I've noticed that with other TPU cases I've had too. (For whatever reason, my Feather on my Nexus S hasn't gathered dirt. It's nice.)
Something else that's kind of concerned me with the N4's dual glass, and a TPU case, is accidental side-crushing. Like if you put it in a pocket and then accidentally run into the corner of something. The hard cases are nice for that... aaahh! Choices! :silly: The TPU was cheap so it'll give me some peace of mind until there's more selection, at least.
So many questions!

Do you use a screen protector? If yes, is the case covering it? touching it? pushing against it?

Hey, I'm the guy that owns this case on his MyTouch 4G. Since your inquiry doesn't have a response, I'll tell you about the version I have. It's the thinnest, sleekest case I have seen for a phone that isn't a skin layer. It actually wraps around the phone, creating a lip for the front of the phone. This is great if the phone ever winds up face down, as it keeps the screen from coming in contact with the surface the phone is lying on.
I would say the case is about 1/32nd of an inch thick, adding a total of maybe a 16th of an inch to the width of the phone (sorry if this isn't helpful, I live in the US and my job consists of a lot of measurements in inches). The sides of the case have a raised diamond plate pattern to it that helps immensely with keeping your grip on the device.
With the case wrapping around the bevels of the screen, I have found that it will push on any full screen protectors I have installed. You can easily wrap the case around the screen protectors to prevent this, but I store my phone in my pocket, so when I reach in there to pull it out, I tend to grip the case which causes it to bend just enough to slip back and push the screen protector again. This of course causes the protector to bow and collect dust. If you can keep the case's edge on the screen protector, I wouldn't see this being an issue, but it is something I have experienced.
As stated, this is my opinion on the version for the MyTouch 4G, though the design seems nearly identical, with the buttons in different places. I hope it's helpful, and perhaps you'll get some information from someone with the Nexus 4 version. I'm hoping to find a durable case for my Nexus 4. With that full glass body, I don't want to hide it, but as stated previously, I'm a construction worker and need to protect it.
$2.30 on dealextreme
I found the standard S-case for $2.30 on dealextreme. I can't post the links because I'm a new member but you can find it if you look it up on their website. Probably cheaper than anywhere else, if you don't mind the shipping times.
I bought one of the ones from Amazon, mainly cause I had a $20 gift card from buying Halo 4 during Black Friday, and so I could use Prime Shipping. Here's the video overview I put together:
Note: I bought this one http://amzn.to/11PmX90 and the photos show the logo on the bottom of the back - this logo is not there on the actual product.
It's really nice. I'd rather have an Otterbox, but this works in the meantime.

I believe Ebay is where they're finding them for $5. You also end up with longer shipping times, etc. Pretty sure it's the same case at the end of the day.

That's just a standard tpu case that will flood eBay at that price minus shipping soon. It will have rough edges and loose fits on sides. It will yellow and get scratched up within month if not weeks.

the description specifically says that the back is "PC" or polycarbonate. the TPU is probably being used as cushion.
The case is a polycarbonate back and TPU bumper, which is the same design as Spigen ultra hybrid crystal clear. The TPU being flexible makes it much easier to put the case on, while the polycarbonate back makes it more protective against drops.

The case is a polycarbonate back and TPU bumper, which is the same design as Spigen neo hybrid crystal clear. The TPU being flexible makes it much easier to put the case on, while the polycarbonate back makes it more protective against drops.

This is the type of case I was looking for.
Just bought one.

I disagree...Look at the reviews for the same case by the same manufacturer for other devices. It's a decent enough case.

Do a search on eBay "nexus case pc back" for example. You will see what at I meant.
Theses things will flood the market at half the price of that Amazon listing.
Full soft tpu case are sometimes less than a buck a piece.
As I said if you need something to hold you over, sure. But don't expect anything good. And it certainly is not a "good deal".
Given the estimated shipping date it may not even get here before my phone.
I've been here before, believe me it's worth spending a couple of more dollars to be on the safe side.
Btw, is it just me or it just makes the deal look shady when they jack up the shipping like that to hide the true price?

Yea, the real cost is hidden in the shipping lol. Re the case though, I just want something thin and light that can still protect from scratches. I had the Spigen Neo hybrid and the other one with the colored back on my note 3 and eventually went caseless because of how much thinner the phone felt without those bulky cases. They look great and do offer a lot of protection but ultimately added too much bulk which is why this current Moko case has attracted me. Not because of the price but because of how little bulk it seems to add in the pics.
Anyhow, if you come across any thin and light cases be sure to post back and let us know, I'm sure I'm not alone in the thin light boat LOL.

yeah, im in the same boat. went through many cases with my n5. including a couple identical to this one being discussed here. i eventually settled on ringke fusion case after a thinner case failed to protect the screen after i dropped it onto concrete from waist height. not sure if the ringke case would have saved it but i feel the extra few mm added around the edges do provide some protection that the thinner cases do not.
these transparent cases look very thin in renders but i can almost guarantee you they are no thinner than any full soft tpu case. these things provide mostly what i would call scratch protection rather than drop protection. my biggest problem however is most of these cases are cheaply made in high volumes from the same factories. most of them will turn yellow quickly and the stiff clear back will get scratched up easily. if you are really lucky, you end up with one that has sharp/rough edge that keeps messing up your screen protector, glass or film.
i have tried everything from backless bumpers (pointless) to amour cases (ugly and bulky). for now i will probably stay with Ringke fusion or one of the several others just like it, at least i know what i will be getting and these companies do have decent customer service to take care of manufacturing or design problems free of charge.

Looked up the Ringke FUSION and it looks great. I see they are having issues re their confirmation of the 6P ship dates but I looked up a review of the Ringke FUSION on the Note 5 and it's great, it's along the lines of what I have in mind, it looks to add very little bulk! Hopefully they get it out soon enough so they can capitalize on the initial surge of sales of 6P accessories.
thanks! Just ordered one myself.
:Canceled my order:
I hate scammy pricing like this. Its basically $5 with free shipping you can't return or get refund if/when its crap.
grabbed one also, thanks OP!

It's a good warning for sure, but it's still $4.99 total for a case that - judging from the company's other products and their reviews - is most likely fine. That's an acceptable risk for me.
If I've learned anything from past experience its that I will settle with the Supcase unicorn beetle case because its awesome. I'll still purchase about a dozen cases, but chances are very likely that I will settle with that one.
I was looking for other cases for the Essential phone and came across the incipio.com website. they are currently listing two different cases. The Dualpro is a case I had not seen before it is a Dual Layer Protective case and available in three different colors.

I have the black DualPro case on the way from Cases.com. Incipio was out of stock.
I agree it is steep but this phone is so slick and the case looks solid.
I have the Tudia Tamm coming from Amazon $12.90 they have it in 3 different colors. It’s available on eBay also.

Please post pics and review When you get it.
I have the tudia case from Amazon and I'm looking for a better case. It is very thing and really lose on the sides. I'm want the incepio case but they don't have it in Amazon right now. Also the tudia case peels up my wet install screen protector, but I'm thinking any case will sure to the super slim bezels.

I just bought the dualpro from case.com...they have 10 percent off with code CASES
Mine says it will be here Friday, the wait is killing me. I have been handling this thing with kid gloves, leaving it in my pocket more than usual.
I plan on posting pics and providing my opinion of it. Unfortunately I do not use a screen protector, so I won't be able to speak on compatibility with one. I am going to put the round flat magnet from my vent phone holder (the round one with rubber feet) in between the two layers. I have had success with other cases and if it can confidently hold my Moto X Pure in place the Essential should not be an issue.
It seems like the case (DualPro) gets mostly favorable reviews in Amazon, I noticed that the Pixel price is around $10, where the Pixel 2 is still $29 (on Amazon). I am assuming that over time this case will get cheaper.
I have a similar case on my iPhone 6s made by iLuvvitt and it is rock solid and cost me less than $4 on sale.
Anyone else eyeing the Tudia Glost case that is being released on December 8th? I may pick up the Ocean Green one. It will be $19.90 on Amazon, $16.91 with 15% off coupon code on the page.

Im thinking that case companies are waiting to see if the phone is successful or not. With only 5k phones reported sold right off the start, Im sure case companies do not want to put time and money into an unsuccessful product. Now that you can get the phone from sprint for about 150 bucks im sure the sales and need for cases has gone way up. It seems that all the cases are back ordered.
My case is still not here, USPS says it was delayed. Hopefully it will be here today or Monday. Looks like everyone is out of stock, so at least I have one coming. Hindsight I should have ordered a backup (like the TAMM) on Amazon as soon as I ordered the phone. Live and learn.
Ordered mine from Incipio yesterday.. Got 50 % off and free shipping..

Grrr...out of stock on Incipio's site now
I was thinking of getting one and removing the back to have a bumper only (not sure why nobody has made a bumper case yet) currently have their regular one coming in a few days but I hate the look.
Like you I've been going naked for almost a week and handling it like a small child lol
Finally got my case! Feels premium for sure, but so does my $4 iLuvvitt dual layer case on my iPhone 6s.
Seriously though, it is a nice case. I feel like the inside TPU layer could be carried separately if desired. No issues using the round magnet that came with my vent phone mount between the layers. The rubbery finish on the outside layer shows oils from your hands when you handle it, but every case I have had like this is the same and can be wiped off easily with a microfiber towel.
It definitely adds bulk to the phone, but if you buy a dual layer case you should expect that. Rubber covering the buttons require a little bit of effort to press, cutouts are precise, and the OEM charger plugs in no problem. Having a raised case on the phone helps locate the fingerprint sensor easily.
I recommend it and would buy it again. I can't figure out how to post pics, Tapatalk won't allow me to attach anything.

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.

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:

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...

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.
