Cases for white Essential phone - Essential Phone Accessories

Hey guys, I have the white variant coming in and was wondering what you guys are using.
On my previous white phones I loved using clear hybrid cases that had clear plastic on the backside and tpu on the sides.
I hate all clear tpu because of how quickly they turn yellow.
This is there only one I found on Amazon.

I'm using the white as well. I do feel your "pain" about clear cases turning yellow at some point but it is what it is I suppose. In general, cases do get dirty at some point and probably will need to be replaced anyway. I just recently re-purchased (this past week actually) this Tudia TPU clear case to replace the same case that I purchased in 12/2017. So it lasted me about 9 months? I've tried maybe one other case but didn't like it because it was too slippery. The thing I really like with this Tudia TPU clear case is that the sides have these ridges that make it really comfortable to hold securely.
Here is a picture of my old and new case to see the difference of 9 months of my usage/handling:

If you're interesting in the case... it's the link:

Just got the phone. Very slippery without a case. I ordered both cases.

I always get clear cases for any phone I get. Just cause I like making my own custom backs for it. I've been enjoying my Tudia Clear Case nicely

Nobody has bought the Case Mate Tough Case yet?

I just ordered mine. Coming from T-Mobile, I have had the Tough Case on my Sensation and I love it! It's like the Otterbox Commuter case but much better. Feels better with the grip and feels like it will protect the phone much more as well. Tried the Commuter on in the store and compared it to my Sensation in the tough case and the guy at ATT was even like "the Otterbox isn't anywhere near as nice..."
Will let y'all know when I get it and do a review...
Case Mate Tough Case for SGSIISR
I bought one today from Androidcentral.com. It's on sale there for $19.99. I had a similar model on my old Nexus One (remember way back when?). It's a great case...just remember to take it off every few weeks and clean out the micro pocket lint that gets in there.

I received the CaseMate Tough today. There's an inner soft sleeve and an outer shell/backing. It fits great on the SR--all ports and buttons match up perfectly. It's easy to slide into a pocket without getting stuck on anything but grippier than a smooth case (or no case), and doesn't add too much bulk. The front lip extends out to serve as a bumper for the screen.
Pics?

Here you go. Note a bit of dust/pocket lint on the inner soft case. It does seem to attract that.

i had the casemate tough case for my tmobile vibrant galaxy S and i loved it.
ill defintely be picking up this case for my SR.
its so worth it and handles anything you throw at it.

Bumper case

I would like to see bumper / frame case for HTC ONE S. Thus, you can still protect the phone but keep it sleak. Why no manufacturer makes bumper cases for our phones? In the past I coulnd not find one for my N1 either.
...And bumper case released in 2015 when the phone will be two year old makes no sense too.
If anyone finds solution please post here. Regular TPU case cut down to bumper won't look good too.
Or it might be just technical limitation. The curves of the phone might not be good enough to hold such rubber band.
Other phones (iCrap) have variation of bumper cases, we don't have even one available.

to answer your question though, the closest thing to those "BUMPER" cases is barely there cases. They are thin and still offer protection. But no, there is no such case like a flimsy rubberband that just protects the sides.
someone found a bumper case yet? I can't find one

Thanks, but it's one of those hybrid bumper cases with a hard plastic backing. My gf had one for her old blackberry and it totally scratched it (if dust or sand gets between the hard plastic and the phone, it makes scratches)

Off-Brand Ultra Light Case Review

It covers the top and bottom!
One week ago, I purchased the Diztronic Matte TPU Case, and this case. At only a dollar, (plus shipping) I didn't think much about it. I knew it would be similar to those cases you find at the mobile stores at the mall, because I previously purchased a similar one for my iPhone. Unlike most of the cases for the Nexus 4, this case Does cover the top and bottom of the device, but is still light and minimalistic like the Rearth Rinkge Slim, actually this case doesn't have a logo. It is a hard shell case, and is made of two parts, which you press together when you put the case on. It is made of soft touch rubber...plastic....(not too sure, but it is the same texture of the matte black cases), and the volume and power buttons are accessible. It also came with a useless screen protector, but it looks like it was for the Optimus G. Overall, I am very Surprised from the practicality of using this 90 cent case daily. I strongly recommend.
Pro's: Slim, Light, and Minimalistic, covers top and bottom, decent lip. buttons exposed
Does well with edge to edge screen protectors
Con's: Feels Slightly Cheap, cutting of the case was not exact, and there is slight fraying where it was cut
This is my first post, so I cant share the link, but it is called the BC Hard Shield Shell Cover Snap On Case for T-Mobile LG Nexus 4 E960 + Fitted Screen Protector -Black (on amazon)

Spigen' Tough Armor and Slim Armors have kickstand at a reasonable price. Mic cutouts aren't Verizon version friendly though.

How is the grip on the slim armor?

I bought the slim armor off of Amazon. I think the case is complementary to the phone and I would recommend the case with the caveat that the kickstand feels flimsy, all though I have not had any problems using the kickstand daily. I would say that the 'grip' is middle of the road... as in it's not as grippy as cases I have had in the past ( Seidio & Redpepper on GN2) but it doesn't feel like it will fly out of your hand either.
You might also look at the Seido Surface

If you don't mind paying a premium, the FlyGrip Gravity makes a great kickstand. It worked well on my Ringke Fusion case.
I pre ordered this one.

Getting it end of the month
Just wanted to know how that case is doing for you? any issues with NFC when the case is on?
Is the kickstand flimsy?
Easy to use the heartrate sensor in the back?
i use spigen's slim armor. the kickstand on that IS flimsy. mine broke off after about three months of use. now i'm looking for a new case. sigh.

Ditto, except I'm in Texas, so mine will be here Friday! For those that haven't ordered yet, be sure to use promo code "Holiday30" for 30% off before the end of December. Even with the sales tax I had to pay, I got the case and holster for $30!
Got mine yesterday and I love it already. It adds bulk to the phone, but in a good way (in my opinion). The holster is attached to the shoulder strap on my backpack. Great case, and make sure you use the promo code!
Might as well add this one

The Seidio 6P holsters are just a little bigger so a good fit with a cheap TPU case and much cheaper.
