HK means closer to 3 weeks

Apparently Deals Extreme has it too... and cheaper by a few bucks.

possible dumb question: Is it safe to put a magnet all up on the back of the phone like that?

Just tested with a REGULAR magnet I had in a drawer and I have good news! It stayed put on top of the camera so it should work!

Does the lens block the led flash?

A magnet, not the magnet macro lens. Edited my post so that there won't be any more misinterpretations.
I'm just stating that it's possible to use the macro lens as the area around the camera is magnetic.

it should be perfectly fine, especially since the lens is not meant to be permanent; you'll be removing it after every use.

I just ordered the same one that ogdobber did. According to my calculations it should fit pretty good actually. I think anything in that 25-27mm range will be fine, but of course it will be a couple weeks before it arrives to verify.

Received the SmartLENS-1 week shipping from HK!
So this is the one I bought here
I ordered it on the 9th and it came today (the 16th). pretty impressive shipping time from Hong Kong!
It fits perfect, however the magnet on the lens isn't strong enough to hold on securely to the Nexus. The SmartLENS does come with 2 steel rings that have adhesive tape that is barely noticeable when stuck on.
The lens can take macro pictures and wide angle...the only pictures I attached are macro and I have to say it is quite impressive. see for yourself below.

done. added the pictures of the lens and adapter mounted.

Thank you for telling us your experience ogdobber.
I bought one from the same seller. Good price, and although I haven't played a lot with it yet I am impressed.

Looks nice, ogdobber. Can't wait to try something like that with 720P

Finally glass back protector

http://theglass-m.com/
Ordered from here and received yesterday. Shipping was very fast and has a cut out for proximity sensor and back camera. Apparently its gorilla glass and fits great. Has a nice anti finger print coating. I have been searching for a glass back protector and finally found one. I can post pics if people want but the price is great and fit is also good.

Is it just me or that website look dodgy to say the least...

http://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0252/5983/products/07_1_1024x1024.jpg?568 <--- is there the "Sony" logo?

How much it's thickness?
if you put the glass on both side, is it can fit the docking ?

You could put it over the asf, I did it with another brand glass protector. Just makes sure it clean and dust free. These one came with a big sticker to remove any dust.

Can you please put a Picture of the Phone in a way we can see how much the glass is in thickness compared to the Phone looking Just at the sides?

How abt scratches and fingerprints ?
I found this http://www.evolutivelabs.com/
Seems a bit better, also funded from kickstarter so kinda trustable.

I have had rhino shield on my nexus 4 and nexus 7 also for my xperia z. The first generation where not very good. They scratched easily and also got dented easily. On my nexus they didn't cover much of the screen and on my xperia the one they sent had issue with the back protector. I have ordered the second generation since they were giving the people who backed them on kick starter free second gen ones. I have not received them yet so cannot comment on them as of now.
These have been very good so far they are apparently made of gorilla glass so they are scratch resistant and have anti finger print coating. The best I have used so far. These are 9H and rihino shields are I beleive 5H.

Thank you, they seem quite thin from the pictures. While we can notice it's there, it's actualy quite OK in therms of thickness.
It's a case that the pros outweight the cons by a large margin.

Ordered now.
Let see how it perform compared to my old SGP one.

Do you have the sony dock or the knock one. I had to take out the spring loaded tabs to get mine to work properly it would charge but a slight knock on my night stand would sometimes stop it from charging.

Samsung Wireless Charging Vehicle Dock now available in USA!

Hey All,
Just checked the USA Samsung web store and saw that the official Samsung Wireless Charging Vehicle Dock is FINALLY available! It's a bit on the pricey side at $99, but it looks to be very high quality, I'm thinking about picking one up. If I do I'll be sure to write a review! Anyway, just figured I'd post here as a PSA!
Is there anyone else here (maybe from across the pond) who's bought one of these and can speak to the quality and functionality of this charger? I'd love to hear some thoughts from someone who's actually used it.

I use it without the sticker. It holds just fine.
Just make sure the charger has no lint on it.

Hmmmm, I might have to give it a try then! Thanks.

Anyone alrady tried few cases for the Mi4C?

How are you?
Would love to hear for your most recommanded cases for the Mi4C.
Thank you very much!

I bought the original hard case and a compatible TPU transparent cover...the original is the best choise ever...

I wanted as small/unnoticeable as possible case for my Mi4C so I bought a "ultra-thin" TPU case made for Mi4i. It is fully suitable for Mi4C but you have to drill a hole for IR blaster. I bought this one (link).

Another vote for the original hard case here: slim but with softer, more grippy plastic.

Wahoo!
Thank you all for the good vibe
If i prefer a matirial that would feel in-between the hard plastic & the Sillicon a TPU would suit? maybe TPU?
Could be also hard plastic but with smooth touch of a sillicon...
Does any of the following hard plastic but with smooth touch of a sillicon(not too slippery)?
Thanks!

I'm using a TPU cover for free. It has a good fit but no longer life, i know. Anyone live in China or near can test a cover? I'm italian, The shipment was too longer!

@ale_noise
Shipment takes long time almost everywhre from CN
I'm from Israel and it well known that in case of shippments from CN or HK it wont take less than 25 days.
Guess the carriers just cannot deal with such as crazy amount of shippments from 1 coutry in every month.

@shabydog
It make me happy, but the problemi is not solved.
Anyone from CN?
Auahauahuahu
Have a good time!

Try amazon they have a few cases available, just bought one the other day and got it today

@kevinnol , We can buy in Amazon. But we live out of u.s and it takes 5-7 days.
And mostly eBay, Ali' etc. cheaper.

On Amazon there're 2 glass protection!

Guys, tell me if your ultra-thin cases work cause I'm gonna buy one like that too. And if it's necessary to drill a hole for the IR blaster or if it works without the hole?

IR blaster works without drilling the hole but it will work on longer distances if you drill a hole. You don't have to drill the hole if you don't want to. The shipping was one week to Finland.

The Pleson was 7.99 with Prime shipping. Just got it today, ordered on Wednesday (16th).
What's funny is, included in the box was a card saying I was selected to receive a $10 refund. *Shrug*

Is a protector really needed if my case has a nice lip? I've never thought of covering a camera other than my selfie one.

Yes, I have noticed some things. First, these protectors have this weird haze on it and can't get rid of it no matter how well you clean it. Taking some shots in my kitchen, there was a slight difference with it on and off. This particular item, I'm returning, because it's just a POS. Avoid this one. The other I purchased, I think it's ozero? That is a little better, but even that one has the weird haze problem. Have not noticed a difference in picture quality with it on or off for the ozero. Hope I helped!

And FYI, I'm also returning this item because they had a card inside that said I qualified to get a refund of $10. But the email they sent privately, wants me to leave a 5star review and then they'll PayPal me the $10. So no, I would never rate this one 5 Stars. I would rather return it and get my refund.

Dang, that's what I was worried about the haze/hue in the photos. They would need to widen the hole around the flash to avoid this issue. Sounds like the company is buying reviews. Sadly I have already ordered it and when it comes I'll put it on and see how bad it is and then return it. Guess another option is a skin but I don't want to bother with those. Hopefully it will be okay with a case that always keeps the lens elevated from all surfaces. Thanks for the information!

I wish I had another camera to take a picture of the haze on the protector for you. But hopefully you're won't have that problem. Yeah they definitely are buying reviews, trying to search how to report them for that.
On another note, I bought 2 Spigen cases: neo hybrid and rugged armor, they both elevate the area around the camera.

I'll try it when they come this Friday and see if there is a haze or not. I'm pretty sure I will have it if you did unless they somehow updated their product in the short period of time. I have the Google Fabric case and the Ringke Fusion X and they both have a nice lip to elevate the camera. I don't keep anything else in my phone pocket so theortically I should be okay even w/o the cover. But I would like it for peace of mind due to the larger surface area.

I tried this screen protector for the camera and got a very weird effect when I tried taking a photo with the flash. The photo was all white - or nearly so - like the flash was getting picked up and spread out through the glass protector - total piece of crap. Sending back now...

Got them and they're utter trash and seem like they're plastic and not glass. Returned.
