Best material case for keeping device cool - Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Accessories

Hi pretty soon i recieve my phone and already searching for a good case.
Most likely im aiming for a well made slim case wich can protect my phone but aswell dont heat up my device to much.
What you guys think is the best material to keep the device cool ?
Some of my finding so far, what you think about:

Stock cover
Inviato dal mio Mi 9T Pro utilizzando Tapatalk

I had the deer one, but for a different phone. Felt bad when I had my hand on it though, so I returned it.
I have another case with fabric back, which feels very nice but also makes phone heavier. So I'm using stock phone most time, putting on the thicker one when I expect a rougher day.

Does it really keeps the phone cooler those cases with fabric back or is it just some marketing thing ? For me personally it doesnt sound very logic but for sure tpu, plastic ... cases need to be worse.
Personally i wouldnt use a case at all but im dropping it so often in a single year oO, just yesterday somehow in the dark my phone slide from the bed to the ground.
How does the stock case is better then other plastic cases ? Is it thiner or metallic material ? (i still dont have the phone )

Fabric ones have fabric over rubber case which feel nice to hold because of fabric. I don't think they're gonna make thermals any better. Theoratically a metal case should be better at managing the heat.
My phone never gets too hot that I'd care of heat management though. Some video editing is the most heat generating task I do. So maybe gamers would know better.
Stock one is nice because it's minimal, thinnest, and looks decent, lol.

Use the stock one which is present in box it keeps phone cooler as per my experience. Let me know if you find any links to purchase with different colours for the same

I guess an aluminum metal bumper frame would do the job. It doesn't have a back, it's only a frame.

Anyone from India? Recommend one being sold in India

Funnily enough I've reverted back to the stock case, I've got a see through spigen one and prefer the stock even though the spigen does provide better protection, plus after a while it discolours

If yes, do they fit well on the phone ? and do they protect it well ?
no but nice!!!
i send them a message and asked what it was made of, and they said plastic and aluminium.
I think i'll buy one.... or 2

Wow looking nice, better than the cases i have at the moment.
May interfere with GPS signal?
the antenna is in the bottom section of the phone, so i'd think that having a metal back wouldn't make a difference.
I think i'm gonna buy one, so i'll tell everyone how it is once it arrives

I think the GPS antenna is by the flash unit, so the case may interfere with the signal.

I've already got a silicone case, and i've ordered 2 of the cases i linked to.
Thanks anyway though, i might get one of those sometime in the future.
i'm always changing the case im using so having more than one isn't a problem.
Also are there any videos of that case in action ?
save your money - i bought a black one and it was rubbish
getting it on was very stiff, you had to push the on button on the top much harder than normal and after a few days the aluminium unstuck from the plastic and i thre the whole lot away...

You're talking about the aluminium one right? I bought the silicone one, seems better
My Desire HD arrives in the morning, so I've just ordered a 99p silicone jobby off ebay - really not expecting much for 99p, but it should keep it nice while I do some research into the perfect case!!
I've had a hero and it's had a silicone case on it for the last 18 months - it looks pretty much like new. So who knows, maybe 99p will be enough of an investment!

The 99p/$1AUD aren't really that bad.
I bought one for my DHD when i got it in december and it's been on it ever since, it fits perfects and has protected my phone since i put it on
i have a silicon case for mine and use it when im at work, remember the phone is an aluminium shell and a screen so its pretty well protected, i use a case to protect from scratching my pretty chocolate coloured phone

Is there a case that has the ability to attach a lanyard?

My mom and dad are coming from old flip phones where they had lanyards to prevent/minimize drops. I'm a little more concerned now that they have something more expensive and prone to damage if dropped. I originally wanted to get them the Diztronic TPU cases, but if there's something out there with a lanyard attachement hole that would be best.

I can confirm that this case has one too, and I love the case also
nice! i just wish they made one without the big android logo. i'll show it to my parents to see if they mind it or not.
i may just cut a small hole above the rear speaker grille and loop it through those two holes as well.
This was mentioned in another thread as well, but I'm not enitrely sure that I'd trust a lanyard on a silicone type case. What exactly is preventing it, when falling with a force, from holding onto the case and NOT the device? While the cases are clearly fit to our devices, they aren't exactly strongly hanging on either.
Unless you're using a lanyard on an Otterbox type of case, I wouldn't really trust it to hold more than just the case in a fall.
Dude, Im gonna go out on a limb and say, I think the lanyards are even better protection than a case...maybe not protection, but prevention. (That sounds weird..btw)
I used to put the lanyards on all my phones and, aside from kind of looking like an ass, I cant tell u how many times I prevented a drop, especially when pulling out of my pocket. It's just something to grab on to.. so.. +1

I used to as well, but it was actually on the phone, not the case (though it regularly went through a hole in the case as well, but the lanyard hole was built into phones before!)
I dont trust a lanyard attached to a rubber case
I have a CaseMate Barely There, very sleek,.. and strong, .. and has 2 holes for lanyard attach:

This one 2 little holes for the lanyard too.

Damn !! thats a nice looking case
Such a shame that a well made case adds so much bulk
If only the One S had some rubber grips down the side, I wouldnt need a case then

Flexishield UK Case (With pictures)

Hi guys,
Got my case from Mobile Fun today. Decent case but not really worth the price it's at. It's just that I hate S-Line cases so I had to get something else for now.
Have attached a couple of pictures.

Does this case give full rear and side protection, and does it raise slightly to give a lip over the screen if you lie the phone face down. Also is that the clear version. Thanks .

The protection is full rear and side. So pretty good in that sense. However, the lip is there but it is only ever so slight.

Hi,
I just ordered this case too. Why do you say it's not worth the price? What aren't u happy about? Can you give me some insight while I can still cancel the order?
I picked this one cause It's clear and it has the rubber feel (I dont like the solid cases like the S shape one).
Btw, I never used a case before, I always had my phones naked but I don't want to risk with this baby N4
Case does great for me. Means I can hold it safer without risk of dropping
Some pictures to try and help - not sure they actually show anything.
My only negative feedback so far: Sometimes I think the power button isn't as responsive as I'd like because of the extra plastic cover but that's minor and I'll get used to pressing the button a little more.
I've actually got the exact same case on my phone as I type this. I quite like the case, it's cheap so I can't really complain about it.

I have this case too (smoke version). I'm quite impressed with it TBH. It's more rigid than the usual TPU cases and will offer a bit more protection (I hope)
You can still see the writing on the back through the case, but not the nice shiny bits.
It's not as 'grippy' when lying on the table as some of my previous cases, but grippy enough not to slide off easily.

Nillkin stand & flip cover case [youtube review]

Hey guys,
I did a quick youtube review (my first!) of the Nillkin Fresh flip case with stand:
I purchased this cover from ebay, it arrived in a few days from Singapore. The quality is very good although the stand function isn't perfect. It offers a reasonable level of protection for the handset and overall I'm very happy with it.

Unfortunately the front flap doesn't stay closed, it's similar to the samsung galaxy flip if you've seen those.
I don't find it an issue for me but I can imagine for some it could be a problem (for example: if you were going to put your phone loose in your bag).
Cheers
Like you said on the video about it not standing up quite right. Would it with time wear and become more flexible in order to do this better. Also how is it pressing the buttons and also as you mentioned when you dropped it, which part of the phone did it hit.
Also for those who want your phone to unlock as you open the cover and vice versa heres a free app I found

Yeah I expect it will wear in over time and should stand up upright a little better, the fold in the flip cover is still quite "springy" at the moment.
I can't say which part of the phone hit the floor when it fell as I wasn't watching whilst it happened. It probably fell from a little under a meter on to hard marble floor, it certainly made a loud bang (suggesting it hit somewhere on the hard back). The phone was still secure in the case and there is no visible sign of damage.
I have a little concern that if the phone hit floor on the very top or very bottom then there is a chance it will completely bypass the case. Although I think this is the same with most hard back cases.

Great, are you in the UK and if so where did you order one from. I already ordered one from ebay (~nillkin_case or something) but it said it'll take between a month and month and a half. So if there's a more viable option i'll cancel that one.
It looks great this case and there is little to choose from wrt cases that have a stand.
EDIT: Trust me to order it during chinese new year :/
Looks good, I've currently got a TPU SLine case, but putchased a TPU case with kickstand, which I'm hoping is alright for a daily driver, but if it isn't I might have a go with this case.
Thanks for the review.

I emailed them and they said because it's Chinese new year, they're not working till the 14th . If only I ordered it the day before lol.
So overall you're very happy with it and would you think about getting a good TPU case like Diztronic? or even Otterbox if it's available?

Yeah, I do really like it and it's certainly good value for money (£7.50/$10). I will probably get a TPU case at some point too and a bumper to boot. I guess they're all good and suit different purposes.
Yes, during Chinese New Year's it tends to get a little busy and slow especially since Singaporeans celebrate it, some other vendors online have warned about it being slow during this time.
The back seems a little slippery. I had a Mercury TPU which is as slippery on the back as it is on the front glass, so I feel it slide when I hold it with my fingers on the front and back. I guess with a textured front cover on this it shouldn't be as bad? Has any slipperiness from the case been a problem for you? Thanks for the review, it's very helpful.

I guess it is a little slippery but it isn't something that I've really noticed or found to be a problem. The naked nexus 4 was crazy slippery, it would just glide across the desk etc. With this case it's more like a normal phone, it stays put when left alone. Perhaps the stand latch helps anchor it a little better other hardback cases.
When answering calls you'd usually fold the cover over so the inside of your hand is connected with the microfibre material which helps secure it. A small observation is that due to the flip cover having enough material to also cover one side of the phone, when folded back there is more cover than back of phone. It's a minor criticism with the design and one that doesn't really bother me.
Overall I've found the case makes the phone much less slippery but I imagine that a soft backed case (eg: TPU) would secure it even further.
Cheers

Would be interested to know if the case blocks the speaker on the phone or it routes the sound toward you. It looks like it could be routing the sound from the speak to the 2 holes at the bottom.

It seem that parts of the case are metal(aluminum?) and I hope this case won't make cell reception even weaker than it already is.

I may order when someone else serves as the test subject.
I'll stay tuned to see how other folks like it.
I ordered this case and immediately had horrible signal issues. I've e-mailed the seller asking if there's a solution. It's too bad to use as a phone, though wifi was not blocked at all. Normally I have strong LTE in my house but it's unusable with the case on.
Marvel should sue them for stealing Spiderman design (j/k). Only if this case had a belt clip, I'd bite. I want someone to make a case with a clip!

They already have some cases with holster and belt clip on Amazon.

to each their own... but gawd, that's ugly.
I bought it when it first went up, before their description made it clear it was steel, I was hoping for a thin metal slip. The case is heavy as hell, and the built in screen protector traps pocket lint between the screen protector and screen. The case is held on with 6 hex screws, which worked, but made it even heavier.
It did muffle sound a little, as to radio...I'm just switching to Ting with GSM from Sprint with my phone. I was worried for a bit that my phone was the issue, but a girl who has a galaxy phone has all the same signal issues I did on Sprint. I'll let you know of mine is better, and how GSM is impacted by the case later.

I should also mention, like the Tudia, it made my side access worse. I use Lucid launcher specifically for the left side slide out favorite apps, these were really hard to activate on both this case, and the Tudia. I also use a pie fromthe right side, this was similarly hard to trigger, but at least I could customize the trigger width to accommodate the massive bearth.
Here is another new case on Amazon.

The shortcut leads to the phone rather than a case.

That doesn't look like a quality case to me. The back looks like plastic. But there aren't a lot of cases compatible with the 360 Camera so if you want specifically to use that feature it's probably worth taking the chance since the case is so cheap. But if you don't care about the 360 Camera there are clearly way better choices.

I bought it.
It actually isn't cheap feeling.
Soft touch.
Pretty heavy.
Secures on the phone pretty well.
Looks like it will protect the phone in a drop.
It does add bulk.
The flip down for the camera is pretty cool.
The opening on the back for the camera is large since the case is so deep.
The fingerprint sensor hole is also large because they made it to clear the camera opening without leaving a small piece of TPU inside.
Overall I like it for the ~$10 I paid.
It is either this or naked.
I bought it as well.
Doesn't feel cheap to me.
Adds a decent amount of bulk to the phone but not too much.
The flip down feels pretty sturdy and hopefully it won't loosen over time.
It has a nice feel to it. Soft but not slick. Sort of rubberized.
I've been using the first Tudia case that came out for this phone for awhile now and it's fine most of the time. But when I do use the 360 lens it is a hassle. Having to peel the case off. Hopefully this fixes that problem.

I tried it yesterday and the flip down works fine.
It's a bit stiff to latch and unlatch, but it does solve the 360 camera issue.
No more case removal! It also means that those screen protectors that glue around the edges will bel see likely to lift.
I still haven't decided if I want to use LOCA to attach a screen protector to my phone.
