Are they going to release the Karbon Protective Case for these devices, i know that they do sell Karbon Bumper Case but the standalone karbon case feels great in hand. Any update on this?

I don't think they will release it. Instead you can look at pitaka or latercase. Pretty much the same as a OP minimal protective case.

The problem being that Pitaka and Later case are kinda expensive and i live in India. The OP Cases are priced very well in India compared to US or other countries.
For eg. The Sandstone Bumper case that i ordered was 790 Rupees (10 USD approx) while the same case goes for 24.95 USD on their US store (Online).

I have a YouTube channel and work with Poetic every time I get a new device. They have told me they are going to have some but they don't have a date yet. They haven't come right out and said it, but I believe they are having some supply chain issues related to COVID-19.

And I just realized you meant OnePlus's Karbon case. Not Poetic's. Lol
Stupid cases that have the same name!

Looks cool but the plastic back will get scratches
Thanks for the headsup. I posted on their facebook page as well.
These look to be the best bumper solution BY FAR! It looks like an outstanding product for the iPhone.

Its either the plastic back or the nexus 4 I think you rather have the plastic back get scratched plus they sell them individually and in colors
well, I guess we wont be seeing linear cases for Nexus 4 anytime soon, based on SGP reply on facebook :
"We will be making our Ultra Thin Air in Black for the Nexus 4. Sorry, no Linear case"

You have to make a request basically, once they see a lot of people asking for it they will consider making it.

I got this from them:
"Hi. Probably, because the shape of the phone is a bit more curved than the iPhone. We will be making a snap case soon. ~3 weeks"
Which I don't get. I mean bumpers exist, so I don't see how hard it would be to throw some plastic on the back of it.

I don't see why they can't make this case I think its possible. They can make it a 3 piece case just like the iPhone.

Yes, I fail to understand the difficulty in manufacturing one.
By the way, sent them an email requesting for the linear metal crystal case for a change

well, that was their response I saw after we all spam-requests it on their fb page...try dig in some of the postings on their fb wall
This is what I wrote to spigen on their FB wall
Have you had a chance to pass on to your production team that there's been an overwhelming interest in a Nexus 4 tpu case? It seems like everyone is really holding out for one as there are already a number of "ultra thin" type cases already out and we're all passing up on them. A lot of us are holding out for a truly premium case much like the ones you produce for other phones. Thanks

AND THEIR RESPONSE
Hello. We did, but honestly we are not getting much requests for a TPU case or any specific case. We do get some here on Facebook, but that's about it. We really apologize if the Ultra Thin Air is not what you are looking for. Without a specific carrier to push the device, the device is somewhat only for a targeted market and not the general consumer.

Dummies. Tmobile carries the device
Well their loss. They don't know there are still a lot of people waiting for their phones? I would take advantage of it. Some people only buy one case and stick with it.

Post links to anything you find. I want something even if it cheap just for protection, until some nicer ones come out, hopefully. I haven't found any yet. I'd prefer something thin because of the size of this thing.
I found a couple of different cases on Amazon.com after searching for "BLU Pure XL -Life" without the parentheses.
I would pick the black ones but they both come in a selection of colours.

OK, thank you.; but remember this isn't the 'life' version.
Should the Gionee and Allview cases fit as well?
Feel free to share links in this thread.

I do not know which Allview cases might fit, but I do know that the Gionee E8 should fit them.
I found this .... http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0156...65&sr=8-14&pi=AA140_QL70&keywords=blu+pure+xl
Would have bought it for protection, but takes almost a month or mo.e to ship....cough.... China

The "-life" search parameter tells it to exclude postings with "life" in the title. Very good way to search for this device on Amazon, Google and other search engines.
at aliexpress.com if you're looking for "Gionee Elife E8" find some cases that should fit
I actually purchased this case in black. It just protects the back not the screen at all. In my opinion just finding a really good screen protector for the phone should be good. You can always replace the back. My experience working in the cellphone department at best buy has proven (to me atleast) that the cases that just cover the back and corners of the phone end up doing some damage to the phone themselves (as far as scratches on the corners and some wear) but I guess its better than the actualy drop would be
Back cover
Hi,
Does anybody know if i can buy back covers ? I scratched mine ?
Check out cases on AliExpress

That's probably something that you'd need to contact BLU for.
eBay is another good site for cases and stuff, but search Gionee, BLU comes up with very little. Also, be careful of AliExpress. They're dishonest as hell.
Blu Pure XL OEM flip cover
My flip cover is cracking. Blu is no help. I'm looking for a flip cover that turns the phone on and off like the OEM cover.
Help?
Post pictures of your cases, its distinctive features and why you chose to go with them!
I'll be the first - I've ordered the Spigen case with kickstand, can't wait to get it. I chose it primarily due to the kickstand - I first download YT videos, transfer them onto my phone and watch them later.
EDIT: never mind, didn't look; feel free to delete this thread.
I'd suggest you check the accessories subforum..

Hi,
I've ordered on aliexpress the Mocolo tempered glass screen protector. The one with UV lamp and liquid glue.
What do you think about it? About the amount of glue...
I've used some good screen Protector like these (G-Color and whitestone dome) and I don't want to put crap on my brand new 1k€ phone
Thanks in advance
it wont be as good as whitestone.
if you dont want to put crap on phone why buy something from Aliexpress?
just get non glass full adhesive for another month and July whitestone will be released
I consider that G-Color isn't crap either.
I know how to put a screen protection without bubble, so I just want not to fxck my device with a too liquid glue, or a bad glue that could make the screens protection unremovable...
I have the mocolo one ready to go, but my current one is still holding up ok, I usually crack a protector once a month... I guess I am harsh on them. When I apply it, I'll get back to you on it. Hope it works out, more than likely it's just like the other budget ones and will be fine.

Hi Guys,
Finally, my One Plus 8 Pro got delivered today after trying since last 4 weeks.
I have bought Ultramarine blue color, wanted to know which case are you guys using?
I have used Spigen cases earlier and they are really good but the issue is it comes in black and i am not sure if i should use a black color case on a blue color phone.
Hence wanted your suggestions on the case.( Should be durable pls.)
Thanks.
I got my wife the blue one and she just uses the clear case that came with it.
I have the blue and the clear case is ok.
I also purchased the sandstone bumper case in black and it looked good and the case is great.
My favorite though is the Rhinoshield crashguard bumper which offers good protection from drops and you can see the entirety of the blue back. I've had the Rhinoshield for my last 4, now 5 phones and it's always my favorite.
I have Spiegen Tough Armor for my Ultramarine Blue. It looks great, and has very good protection. Would always go for Spigen
