can anyone recommend the grippiest case for my Pixel 4 XL? I have the Spigen ultra hybrid right now and it's a good case but it's extremely slippery on the slides and I almost drop my phone multiple times a day because it slips out of my hand. thank you in advance for all your help everyone.

If it was actually a case and not a shell I might buy one. I'll see if I can find some reviews on it through YouTube

Would love to hear your findings. I'm looking at this case too now.
The Spigen Thin Fit just doesn't do it for me. Feels weird and rubbery. And I dont like the edges.

I got it today, feels pretty nice, it's also grippy for me, adds barely any bulk. But the screen is not protected, so if you drop it directly on the screen or place it on the screen it might get scratched or shattered.
Other than that it's nice, the pitaka qi car charger is nice, magnets are strong and wireless charging works really fine with the case ?

Thx.
Nice case. I m happy with it.
Feel and design is great.
Only price is not so satisfying
I love my dBrand - actually they stand behind their products as well. My case kind of got nicked up on the bottom from a drop - they sent me a replacement, my case was like a month old. The feel is great and the skins work relatively well.

Nexus 4 Diztronic Case Review
$12.50- Diztronic Matte Black TPU
$12.50- Diztronic Matte Smoke TPU
Diztronic Website
Design
5/5
The back of the case has a nice glossy tough black cover. The bottom of the case has a good looking shiny Diztronic logo on it and a slot cut open for the camera and speakers. The edges are made of a gelly type of material that makes the case easy to go in, but tougher to take out. This is a plus in my book because it makes the phone seem like it melts into the case. The edges of the case go over the screen making a bit of a "lip". This could be an issue if you use a screen protector, but don't quote me on it. The buttons can be pressed very easily and they aren't stiff at all. The buttons are the most easy to press out of any case I have ever used.
Protection
5/5
This case protects all aspects of the phone while still keeping a thin and light profile. The "lip" on the front of the case will definitely help to reduce the impact on the phone if dropped face first.
Final Verdict
5/5
This is probably the best case I've used so far for the Nexus 4. At $12.99 you get a high quality case made with premium materials. You can tell Diztronic took the time to make sure they got everything right. This case gives you maximum protection, looks, and feel while keeping your beloved Nexus 4 protected.
Good Video man....I ordered my case on the 5th so hopefully it will come in tomorrow...and it looks very good...Im using the clear tpu you had in the video now..but once again good video as it should help others who are thinking about buying the case and since watching the vid i know im gonna be very happy when mine arrives.
good review. I just received mine yesterday, and was extremely surprised on the quality of it for being 13 bucks.
I HATE using cases on my phone due to being a minimalist and enjoying the slim design, but this one just fits perfectly! I enjoy the added gloss coating around the lip that goes on the screen..it creates a nice blending effect with the screen.
I've read a few people mention that the power/volume buttons are a little stiff to press, but honestly, they must be weak af, or they got a defective case. The buttons are extremely responsive with the least amount of pressure.
Forgot to mention that the back of the cases doesn't attract ANY fingerprints. That's a big deal for me because I hate cleaning off the back of fingerprint covered cases.
How's the screen protector? Any cons?
Ordered mine couple days ago. Should be getting it tomorrow

I checked the video and you showed all the sides except the bottom where the usb port is. If you post a pic of it, he might be able to judge whether case opening is large enough or not.
Good review though. Still waiting for my n4, but I'm ordering this case so the phone won't be naked after it is unboxed.
Case is well worth it. Just got mine today. Watch the screen protector putting it on though.

First, the case's full name is Acase Superleggera Pro Hybrid dual layer Case for LG Google Nexus 4.
Link on amazon.com: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00B4I2GJU/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
FOr me, the seller shipped from IN, I dont know if they have any other branch. IAmazon said it would be delivered on Thursday, but I have received it on Wednesday.
I am not good at English, so I will use a lot of images to review this case.:laugh: I also take picture the case with the Nexus 4 adapter, so you can compare the demensions.
The case fit perfectly to the phone.
The case has two layers which are seperated. One is soft and one is hard.
I have a back, front and body wet-protector, and this case haven't peel my protector yet. Hopefully it won't. However, with a soft cover, I dont think it will peel any corner off.
THe back of the hard part is smooth. Hence slippery or not, I think it depends on each person. For me, it's not slippery. But the fact is it's smooth, so it can fall off your hand if you're not careful.
Buttons can be used very easily.
I dont have a Wifi charger in case someone ask me for this.
Last thing, any grammar error?
EDIT and WARNING: Because this case has a ruber layer (it has two layers: the soft ruber one and the hard one), it collects dust very easy, especially when you put it in your jeans' pocket. This is no problem to me, with a fiber or tape, I can easily remove them.
I also confirm again, this case doesn't peel the corner of your screen protector off.
However, with the Ballistic one, it will peel your corner off very easily because the top and bottm of the ballistic aren't fixed. I have borrowed the Ballistic one from a friend and used it for two days, at the end of each day, I had to apply my screen protector again. If you need some images on the Ballistic one, tell me, I will do some for you.
Test.
Image part 3.
Looks like a good alternative to otter box. Thanks for sharing.

I also got this case in white, i absolutely love it except for the fact that it's white, and gets dirty if not taken care of. Other then that, it's awesome. I don't use it now, because i have lens for my phone camera, but when I did use it, i wasn't afraid of dropping it.

Also, found 2 YouTube unboxing/reviews for those interested.
Could anyone compare it to the ballistic case ?
This one looks thinner but still looks strong enough to keep protecting the phone from an average drop . :laugh:

I'm still waiting for the Superleggera to arrive (7-10 days). As soon as I get it I'll update what I find, compared to Ballistic Shell Gel SG.
I tried the Ballistic one from a buddy of mine but I personally did not like it. The build quality is very good with the ballistic and it feels like it's going to protect the phone well. But from day to day usability it's not very practical.
The inside silicone piece of the Ballistic is very soft/loose. It fits the phone well but without the support of the hard shell it tends to come off. That is why some people complain that the top and bottom of this case is not very fitting, since there is no hard shell support there.
The soft silicone with the protruding corners of the case sometimes gets stuck taking in/out of pant pockets.
In the YouTube reviews and the pictures by OP by the look of the Superleggera, the silicone seems stiffer than the Ballistic and the hard shell supports all four sides, hence more form fitting than the Ballistic and should not have any pocket issue.
nice review, looks nicer than the two later one i bough a few months back.

How slippery is this case? I'm assuming the hard case (outer cover) is, but not the inside tpu bit. Is that true? So can I remove the hard case and expose the tpu while setting it on an uneven surface?

I'm getting a Note 4 here soon and wanted some recommendations on accessories. Trying to keep things under $100 shipped for everything. Mainly the two things I need is a good dock and case, as well as a fitness arm band. I'm an Uber driver and the app does not rotate into landscpae mode so something that I can use in portrait or landscape is a pluss but the biggest thing is dead reliable and easy to remove and compatible with the case. As far as the case goes well I don't want anything ridiculous bulky but definitely something that will protect the phone from minor wear and tear and prevent damage in the event of drops. A waterproof case is not a requirement unless said case maintains hte profile of not being too bulky.
I have more portable battery chargers, usb cables, and chargers than I know what to do with. So I am good on those
For cases that provide good protection yet keep it not too bulky check out the seidio solez pro which is a hybrid case and also includes a kickstand, also my favorite is the speck candy shell grip case provides excellent protection and gruo while being pretty slim. I hear the Samsung OEM protective cover is good too. As far as docks I use the iottie one touch dock.

Those look pretty nice. RIght now im looking into the Seidio Dilex and the Ballistic Tough Jacket Maxx. The Ballistic is somewhat on the bulkier side but it comes with screen protection and I've owned Ballistic cases before and they are ROCK solid.

I tried the Tech 21 and now have the Samsung Protective cover.
The Samsung Protective Cover is FANTASTIC. And the same night I got the phone, Samsung sent me a 50% off any item in their store under $50 so I bought the case with it. Its slim, fits well, It almost looks like the Note 4 was made as a rugged phone and doesnt have a case on it at all. I would rate it a 10 out of 10. the tech 21 I woudl rate a 4 out of 10, I knew when I was putting it on I didnt like it.

You will have access to the charging port but the S-pen isn't that easy to get in and out. Here are some pics I recently took of it http://imgur.com/a/GP92Y
The s-pen has to be pulled on a little bit so it makes it difficult to try and wiggle it out while driving. It's not impossible though.

Hi,
I highly recomend you the original Samsung Vehicle Dock.
I got it since December and I love it, I don't know how I could live without it!!
Greetings.
I don't like cheap ass $5 to $10 cases from ebay and amazon. I am looking for some branded case such as spigen, speck and tech21. Let me know if you any other good brands who are making good cases for this phone.
I asked Spigen, they gonna have some but still no ETA :/
I have this one, which is very well done. i't thin, has a good grip, and enough protection for the screen and camera (personal opinion)

I got the same case for my brandnew mate 9. It fits nicely but i doubt it will offer the same protection as my last case.
On my old Galaxy Note Edge i have a Verus Thor case which is a composite of hard and soft protection layers which served my well.
Unfortunately the company has nothing to offer for Huawei so i go with the Nillkin case for the time being.
My black Nilkin case came in the mail yesterday. I highly recommend it. Good grip and feel. Can't go wrong with this one.
I have another one coming in the mail but I can't remember the brand haha.

I just got the spingen case and it comes close to the old Verus.
Not 2 seperate layers but a medium hard material which i expect to dampen any drop.
And the surface has more grip than the bare mate or the hard Nillkin case.
I got the Spigen yesterday. Really like it. Feels great in the hand and looks like it'll do the job as well.

I got it on Amazon in Spain. Maybe, it's not genuine but it feels pretty good quality.
Same problem with my Axon 7. With these non-carrier branded phones, it is tough to find a decent case.
I'm using this case, super good quality, very slim footprint. Smart details too like anti-slip sides.
Should have covered the edge of the glass though.

I've bought about 10 cases, and the only one that is grippy enough that I don't feel like I'll drop the phone when using it one-handed is just a generic plastic TPU one. I have to fit a wireless charging adaptor and some magnets behind the phone, though, so I wish there was something a little bit roomier, but still thin enough for the magnets to work (I use wireless charging car mount)

Can anyone recommend a super slim case for the 4XL? Something similar to the Bare Naked case, but either much cheaper or higher quality? the Bare case I had on my 3XL was super cheap quality with rough edges and let a lot of dirt etc in between it and the phone. Have currently got a Caseology case on my 4XL but its pretty bulky.

It's a Caseology Solid Flex Crystal that I have, its not massive but I find it bulky. I think the MNML one sounds very similar to the issues I had with the Bare case, recently you could almost rattle the phone around within the case. Was hoping someone made a decent quality really thin case, I'm not too fussed about drop protection, just need a way to avoid scratches and wear and tear
Spigen thin fit had one on my note10+
I loved the pitaka case on the pixel 2 xl and although they didn't come out with one for the 3 xl, it still worked every though it didn't line up perfectly. Unfortunately i can't use it anymore on the 4. They have no plans to make one either. That's been the best and thinnest feeling case I've used while still being really solid. Such a shame.
I have the mmnl on order so we'll see how that goes. I also have a skin on order as well so i might just go naked with just a skin to protect the back from scratches. With the matte sides, its not slippery at all so i might go that route.

Have used this one. like it for the slimness. it holds on to any type of oils from your hand though. Easily wiped off if need be. (this is for the black one though)

I hear ya on the Pitaka. I love it on my Pixel 2 and was really bummed to see they didn't do one for the 3's and probably won't for the 4's. I wonder if it being a magnetic case interfered with wireless charging? That obviously was not a concern with the 2 and 2XL.
I've got an esr appro on the way, it looks similar to the mofi cases I've gotten from Ali for my 2 and 3 which are super slim. they're nice, but only really offer scratch protection. the mofis had no lip for the front, jsyk

wireless charging shouldnt be the reason though since new iphone and samsung has it too which they still make cases for. I asked and they gave the same answer, due to low demands they have no plans to make one for pixel 4.. The magnet on the pitaka case doesnt cover alot of the case so still works on most wireless chargers. It works inconsistently on the PIxel stand though..
Anyhow, just got the dbrand skin in. Pretty nice ... will see how it is as a daily. got a few cases coming in that i'll give a try.

Just got the mnml case on the mail today. Fits really nice and very thin. Much thinner than other cases i have tried including the ones recommended in this thread. Just hope it doesn't warp over time like others have mentioned ?

Just don't take it off a lot and you'll be fine.
Here's the MNML vs the ESR Essential Zero (quite a bit thicker than the MNML). https://photos.app.goo.gl/vUBq1HMjPPwAaH6S7
Also, PixelLoyalty is a good discount code.
Have you tried the Spigen Liquid Crystal? It's been my go to case for my past 3 phones (Pixel XL, Pixel 2 XL, and now Pixel 4 XL).

Aw, they must have just pulled it at midnight. P4reddit and MNML20 are others.
Thanks for the pics.
I'm very interested in the MNML and your pics make me more interested.
I ordered the esr essential zero, esr mimic and spigen liquid crystal for my 4xl and ended up keeping the mimic as it felt and looked the best.
I will say the esr essential zero definitely was nicer than the spigen liquid crystal, or should I say slimmer.
The MNML looks to be even slimmer and that's enticing.
Food for thought.
Thanks again.

I have the Spigen Thin Fit for my 4XL, and it's mostly OK, but it sticks up a bit too much for it to be comfortable to use with gestures. Especially since it has really sharp edges. I ended up not using it for that reason. It would have been perfect if the edges didn't stick up so much past the screen on the sides. The grip is really good on my black one, but someone commented that the white one was slippery.
I was messing around and was able to order the totallee thin case for $15. It's regularly $29.
I was wondering if anyone is familiar with it and what the opinion was on it.
It's got a 30 day money back guarantee, so I can return it. I'm intrigued with how thin it's supposed to be.

Peel, MNML, Totallee are all the same/similar.
