This is my new favorite Note 9 case. Same rubbery material as the Tech 21 with better bottom and back protection. The whole inside is protected with the orange D30 material.
Real grippy. great feeling case.
Looks good. How slack is the left side where the Bixby button side is?

Nice case.. But I second this opinion...
Glossy black cases get so greasy with fingerprints and also show micro scratches very easy..
Couldn't agree more re those glossy/shiny sides.
The glossy sides are actually.very grippy/sticky. They use the same glossy sides on their other models.
Their note 9 cases for me seem to be step down to what they had for the note 8.

Unless Samsung brings the alcantara Note 8 case for Note 9, there is no favourite case for me. I know a guy that claims he got one (preproduction? fake/replica?) from Alibaba but I can't find it anywhere. The rest all basically the same case made by hundreds of different companies/sellers and easy to spot; they are plastic all around and the buttons are not that great. Better than nothing but they don't compare to the real (only for Note8) thing.

Personally I think overall, the Spigen selection is the best.

The glossy probably fits in your pocket better though. Don't like dealing with how sticky my oem Samsung case is, though it's grip is bomber.

When I had the S2 I had the 3do case that Tmobile sold under the 3do name. I really liked the case a lot. Basic and got the job done. I dropped my phone from about two feet getting out of my car face down and the phone was fine.

You should order alcantara case from interiorex. Have found it great personally. The fake Samsung ones on AliExpress seem to be even dangerous for their scetchy chemicals, being thus probably imitation alcantara.

Found it in aliexpress by searching galaxy note 9 alcantara. Doesn't look bad, and plenty of excellent reviews. Not sure it can be trusted though...

First let me say I think this is the best overall case for the nexus 4 hands down and I ordered pretty much every other case off amazon. We would all love to use the nexus naked or with a bumper but we also know how fragile this phone is you probably break it or fear breaking it the whole time.
I say this case is the best for these reasons design, cost, and protection. First design, the main thing that stands out about this case it has hard edges when on case feels slick and firm. The whole case has a sparkle effect pretty cool. I absolutely love the white but the black is very nice also my gf loves it. The only flaw in design is probably the power and volume buttons are cut out and case does have a little thickness so can be hard to push buttons sometimes. This case does add to size but keeps nexus 4 shape exactly.
Cost was 5.21 plus 2 dollar shipping so that for me already puts it as number 1 since all others cost more. To me if you had to pick one case this would be it.
Protection to me cannot get any better than this. I don't know how but the case in your hand feels soft and bends like every other case but when on feels solid. Hard to put into words but I trust this case.
Now the only other cases that came close where the distronic (which is a little slimmer and buttons are not cut out. Also back is matte). I blazon was good to very similar to distronic minus the matte back. The mercury is just a tad thicker than these but you really don't feel it.
The other cases like the rearth to me is just a cheap piece of plastic not worth 10 bucks. There is a distronic hard shell that was pretty nice its like the rearth but done right. This would be my second choice if you really want ultra slim. Does not protect whole phone but good enough.
Here are some pics I took today this case is awesome. Comes in a ton of colors.

This one is not to thick but thicker than others on amazon just bit. But also this is the only one that keeps nexus 4 shape so it feels good in hand. Black is shiny not super though I suggest white as it has a gloss on it and does not get dirty. I'm two weeks on white still looks brand new and its been all over.
I'm not gonna lie I don't like the black but my gf does which good because I would not give her the white. All of them have a sparkle effect black shows it more.

There was some discrepancy between the shipping price on amazon vs the price stated on the Mercury storefront shipping information page. I emailed them about that and they quoted shipping for me in Ottawa at $7.35. They said they would refund me the $2.13 difference in shipping after the fact. :good: I know it's not too much, but it's good to know they're an honest customer-oriented company.

Would anyone with this case mind taking a picture of the micro-usb port area with the case on?
I have a bunch of 6 ft micro usb cables that I like to use because of the length. However, these cables have a lot of excess plastic around the connector so I'm just wondering if they'll be compatible or not.

If I'm the kind of guy who drops his phone like, once a week, should I guess this. Trying to searh for the best option since I just ordered a nexus 4.
I currently have a samsung S2X with a Trident Aegis case that I really liek for protection and such.
Also, still not sure if I will put a screen protector. Is the Nexus 4 screen tough anough not to? Not a fan of the "rubery" feeling they give but its better than a scratched screen.
Got mine. Here's my opinion. It makes the n4 more fatty. I'm not a fan of the strange edges, preferred the smoother more rounded edges on my s3 and iphone4 versions. It's very front lippy, it pushes my skinomi skin and causes it to wrinkle/ bubble/ peel.
Good protection. Excellent quality and material. Cut out perfect. Nice hold/ grip. Great colors.
Took it off and put my nillkin back on.

Did I receive the same case? The Mercury tpu case I got for my Nexus4 looks nice, does add a little bit more bulk than the Diztronic, but one giant problem. It is slippery as hell. The gloss on it is not a sticky gloss, but more of a smooth slippy gloss. It won't stick to any surfaces, and IMO actually makes the phone a little more slippery to hold than when it's bare, since the entire case is made of this stuff. The only time it will be grippy is if your hands are slightly moist or hot enough to leave a steamy fingerprint lol. Not only that, the cutouts make the buttons very hard to press (due to the thickness of the case and shallow-ness of the buttons). The power button is actually kind of ok if you use your fingertip, but it's very hard to press the volume button.
Diztronic tpu owns that crap, u mad bro
Diztronic has been a favorite case manufacturer of mine for some time. With the release of the Galaxy S4, Diztronic released their line of cases for it. As usual, the Galaxy S4 Diztronic case is well made and the fit is all but perfect. With eight different colors and shades available, you are sure to find one that fits your tastes. At only $9.99 with Amazon Prime shipping, this case is truly a steal.

Feels great, fixes the 'slimy' feel of the S4. Fits very well, all cutouts are perfectly positioned and I like that it covers the buttons as well. They're not too tough to hit either.

Sorry to hear you don't like the design choice, I personally think the glossy lip is what makes the case look so great!
Regarding mic hole positioning, it's spot on (at least on every case I've tested). If yours is centered you simply need to re-seat the case, it doesn't always go on straight since it's a flexible material.
Diztronic style is rather simple, I do like simple product.

I personally wouldn't recommend these cases at all. My experience appears to be somewhat of an isolated one, but it fell waist-high on concrete and shattered my Galaxy Nexus. If you think dropping your phone is even a possibility I wouldn't get this case, and if you don't think you'd drop your device then why get a case?

Thin/minimalistic cases help to prevent everyday wear and tear on the phone, small scratches, scuff marks, etc. I am not expecting this case to prevent my phone's screen from cracking if I drop it onto concrete (I don't think it was designed for that and the manufacturer has certainly never claimed that). However, I don't drop my phone so that's not really a concern. I do expect this case though to prevent minor scratches and keep the phone protected from everyday wear and tear and so far, it has performed perfectly in that regard.
OneStepAhead: Do you have any plans for making Diztronic cases with ridged surfaces? It seems like one of the most common criticisms is that the smooth finish makes the case slippery. Thanks

Just a note, but I've never thought it was slippery. Yeah it's not tacky like some may come to expect, but this is also what makes it nicer than most other tpu cases.

I would use a razor blade. I usually heat it up to help it glide through the TPU.
I have owned Diztronic cases for every phone I've ever owned since they started making thjem back as TPU Cases.
For a simply wonderfully protective non bulky case there is nothing better IMHO..and I have bought plenty of other cases to try them.
I have arthritis in both thumbs...I drop things including phones. I have dropped every phone I have owned numerous times and never once have I had anything break in a TPU case from these folks...be it on the ceramic floor in the kitchen, wood floors in the dining room or on pavement in the driveway or on the road.
Could you break a phone dropping it in one of these? Of course if it falls just right. I bet you I have dropped my S3, No9te 2 and now my S4 at least two dozen times between them and nothing has broken or bent. Nada.
They fit to perfection as well.
They certainly aren't slippery...course I am always using the mat black variety.

Had this case for the LG Optimus G, but I do not like how it doesn't cover around the camera area, unlike the UAG cases...
Just tried this case with my Spigen Glas.tr and it doesn't work. The bezel of the case comes too far onto the phone. So the case is kind of bulging out from the sides of the phone because it's hitting the edge of the screen protector. This makes hitting the power button and volume buttons more difficult.
there I said it.
-fits perfectly
-protects, like seriously
-not too thin, not too thick, just right
-not slippery, adds hand fitting design, holds well
-not fugly too thick for the sake of protection
-doesn't cost an arm and a leg
-isnt a lint or dirt magnet
-nothing crazy like waterproof or seethru
-protects your camera too, and front screen
-won't scratch your bezel
I just have to share this as many of you are still wasting time and money trying out diff cases. I suggest getting yourself a Thor first then knock yourself out with experimenting with all the others if you must. but for now, Thor is the best.
other companies really failed us on this one. they just wanted to release cases faster than they can test them out. turning us into guinea pigs.
Im sure that it doesnt have tech21 material on it. Tech21 cases are probably better than any cases out there and it has evidence with videos..
Pics?
I have to agree about the Tech21 case. I have it and it is light years away from the others I tried. Very nice case for the Note 4.
lol so superb
Agreed with LeoNote4 100%. I haven't removed the case since I got it. Much better feel than the Spigen cases. I have all of the Spigen cases and UAG Scout. May try the Tech21 Impact Tactical.
Anyone know if either of these will fit if I am using the OEM wireless charging cover?
Yes a very nice case and I really like it but I hate to try to find a holster to fit that.

at some point, a company has to find the perfect balance over one perfect feature. tech21 major design flaw is it's design. it prides itself and rightly so on total protection of the device. this comes at a huge compromise in design. in addition to that dull appearance, the case also creates a lot of smudge from your hands and fingers. it gets annoying to clean up everytime and it looks too gross to show others.
users would find themselves looking for a case that still provides decent protection, maybe bulletproof is overkill, but just enough safety feature and still covers all the other points. nobody said its perfect in all areas, but what Thor provides is that reasonable balance in design, protection, grip, price without compromising so much on one or two features.

Can anyone using the Verus Thor case recommend, ideally from experience, a good car mount? In part because of the curved sides, it's difficult for me to judge the case's effective width use in a car mount.

only $16.95 now still worth the money??
I'm still a fan of the Otterbox Defender and the UAG cases. I have used both on my Notes. I don't mind the additional thickness in exchange for protection. I have dropped my Note 3 from chest high onto my concrete driveway with each case and the phone has survived just fine. I have gotten out of my car and forgotten that my phone was in my lap, only to have it drop onto the concrete. No problem!! I have seen all of the video's and listened to the claims of other cases, but I can personally attest to the fact that the 2 cases I have mentioned will protect your investment should you ever drop it.
Anyone know of a quality leather sleeve?
I used to be quite a fan of http://www.senacases.com/ , back with my original iphone 2G I had their slim leather pouch case.
Unfortunately, they don't have cases for the Moto X... However, you may want to check the phone's dimensions in comparison to other phones and maybe you can find one that still fits.
I've found that sleeves and cases for the Samsung Galaxy S5 are a good fit for the 2014 X. I bought one of these: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00L1V9HW4/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o09_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 and it fits perfectly. Even snap-in flip cases work, but you have to modify the cutout for the X's volume buttons.
Depends on what kind of leather sleeves you like OP. I ordered one after a while of debating really... They have multiple colours here.

So it's more like a soft cloth inside. I've always had a screen protector on all my phones using this (have used the same type of sleeve for other phones as well) so never thought of scratches.

I'm looking at this seller on Etsy.
They do felt and leather. I actually really like the felt.
Hey guys, so I went a little overboard and bought over 20 cases.
I also bought 5 different types of screen protectors.
Instead of trying to post over 20 photos I just put everything on video. I split it into two parts because there were too many cases.
Here's part one https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zYm9pe57Ej4
Here's part two https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vlJ0E2BeOLY

Let me know if you have any questions about any of the cases.
Nice video! on your part 1, can you link me where you found the "Inovate" leather case with rhe grip on the back that comes with the screen protector and stylus? Couldn't find it anywhere
Good quick reviews there. You must have spent a fortune on these! Where did you order the Captron Dual Hybrid case in Part 1? The gunmetal colour one. That looks a good contender for what I like.
Haven't watched the videos as of yet, but is it possible to give a written recommendation of a few cases, and why you recommend them, possibly links to where they were purchased?
Like to see reviews on Note 7 cases with kickstands and standing mode cover.
I currently using the Galaxy Note 7 Black S View Standing Cover case. It was hard to find right now with the brick & mortar stores. The only brick & mortar store that I found this cover right now was "Best Buy". I like lots with the S View features and standing mode. The downside is that it hides some of the Note 7 design.

I can write something up...I actually got a few more cases in and plan to do a Part 3. This one might be my favorite, it's from a brand called Myriann.
Link is HERE Here's why I like it.
1. It's a dual hybrid case but it's as THIN as a standard TPU case. Usually these cases are a little thicker because of the tpu and plastic shell but this is extremely slim.
2. I noticed with the Note 7 cases, on the left and right sides, some cases go straight down. What I mean is, the cases should dip in a little bit to account for the curve in the screen. You'll notice with the Myriann case that the sides dip in to accomodate the sides. This isn't a huge deal but when you're holding it, it makes it feel slimmer due to this "cut" in the case.
3. The texture is excellent on the back and it looks very modern.
I could write up some more stuff about the different cases but it really depends on preferences and looks. Do you want more protection or are you focused on just having minimal protection? Do you want to show off the Note design or do you mind if it gets covered with carbon fiber or leather patterns? It really depends on the preference of the user.

Good quick reviews there. You must have spent a fortune on these! Where did you order the Captron Dual Hybrid case in Part 1? The gunmetal colour one. That looks a good contender for what I like.

Here is the link to the Kickstand case...this is one of my favorites because it looks professional and has utility in the way it's designed.

Thank you so much! That's exactly why I want to order it lol. Do you by any chance know how to get all those cases at a discounted price? I always see those in reviews and I would really like to get a couple to review them myself I've tried a couple of those sites but none had Note 7 cases I could review

I can write something up...I actually got a few more cases in and plan to do a Part 3. This one might be my favorite, it's from a brand called Myriann.
Link is HERE Here's why I like it.

I may have to buy that case. Would that be your recommendation if I am looking for minimal protection? Want to show off the design of the Note 7. Really hate when cases cover up the design!
Thanks for your input, very valuable! I'm so used to otter box defender cases, but them things are so damn bulky... So I would like protection first but comfortably thin. If I can show off the phone kool but not necessary. If it had a kickstand I would be happy but it's not mandatory. Damn, I pretty much want every option in one case!

If you want minimal and to show off the phone then probably the Ringke AIR or any one of the clear generic cases I reviewed.
I would recommend the myriann because I like the carbon fiber texture on the back and it is very very SLIM for being that style of case. However, if you want to show off the Note as is, get a clear case.
BTW
GORILLA GLASS 5 IS WEAK! I only had the Note 7 for a couple days, been in a case this entire time and the back glass has a very faint scratch.
Also if you look at my other videos I put up a bunch of screen protectors. I probably spent over $100 on accessories and I can say the ZAGG/IQ Shield types suck if you want to use the Spen. I know many Note users who rarely use the pen so it won't matter but I use it daily and it just sticks and feels horrible on those screen protectors. I installed over 4 and took them all off and the tempered glass ones weren't any better because they didn't stick like they were supposed to.
