Cases for Nitro HD and Optimus LTE - LG Nitro HD

Hey Crew,
So while I'm waiting for my Nitro to turn up, I found a couple of good cases on eBay.
Not a whole lot of choice at the moment, however you can pick up a good-quality TPU in a lot of different colours from this eBay seller (EDIT: These cases have a corner cut-out for the DTV antenna on the Korean Optimus LTE). They're marked for Optimus LTE on the back, but the finish is good and the actualy feel and presentation is excellent. I went for the 'glitter white' and it looks pretty nice!
If you like brand-name stuff, the only thing I could find was a Speck CandyShell from this seller. I went for the white back, black front version. Yet to receive this one.
Post here if you had any more awesome case finds!

Is there really a hole in the upper corner of the case? Besides that, the cases look nice, but I'm not sure why there's a corner missing in the case, as there's no port of any kind at that spot. Does your case also have that exposed corner? Thanks!

I'm getting the Go Ballistic Hard Core. Might not be brand name (maybe it is?) but I'm sure it will do the job. I doubt Otterbox will make something and this looks like the next best thing.

There is. This case was built for the Korean Optimus LTE, which has a TV tuner extenable antenna in that position.

Ballistic is definitely brand-name, and they are awesome. I had one on my Infuse and it was great. They do add an awful lot of bulk and weight, but their protection is unmatched, even by OtterBox.
Nice find!

I bought the body glove case at an at&t store. Fells good n doesn't add any bulk.

I haven't gotten a case yet, but I did find these three cases on amazon:
Smoke aka gray

Pink
AT&T is having a 35% off promotion on cases, so I bought the body glove

I bought like 4 different cases for my Nexus One, after a while (about 5 months) I just didn't like anything and carried it NAKED! Ahhhh, it's good to be free!
I have to admit though, that Ballistic HC case makes the Nitro look MEAN! Like not only am I NOT afraid to drop my phone...But if you mess with me, I'll use it as a projectile to HURT you!
I think I'll look for just a nice neoprene sleeve for my Nitro until I'm comfy enough to carry it NAKED too!

SGP Ultra capsule is available now... ordered a white one.

Man you guys are spoilt with cases. In Australia, we never get SGPs or Specks or Ballistics etc. The fanciest we get is a bloody OtterBox!
I love the SGP for the SGS2, so will definitely grab one for the Nitro.
Sent from my Dell Streak 5 using XDA Premium

When someone gets the SGP ultra capsule, could you let me know if the corner of the phone is really exposed like it shows in the pictures on amazon? I think it's open for the Chinese model which had a tv antenna, but there's no reason for it to be open for the p930, and I KNOW if that corner's out, that's the corner that's going to hit the ground after I drop it on day one =) I just got this black TPU one in the mail from amazon
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B006MPH3ZW/ref=oh_o00_s00_i00_details
I love it. No unnecessary holes and it's a really nice, tight fit. Only comes in black (no pattern, thank god), though. If the SGP ones don't have exposed corners, I'd love to get the white one! =)

I work for ATT and got the ballistic case for free. Its huge. Ginormous.
Sent from my LG-P930 using XDA App

So I got one of these phones and I've never actually had a "new" phone that just came out. About how long does it take to get some decent cases to choose from in the market?

I just noticed that the SGP cases are TPU as well
http://www.amazon.com/SGP-Nitro-Ult..._1_1?s=wireless&ie=UTF8&qid=1324607570&sr=1-1
They look fantastic.

They are very good quality. I think they also sport the hole for the DTV antenna, though. I have one for a GS2 though and they're awesome cases!

Yeah, it does have the hole on the right side of the case to support the dtv antenna.
Anybody knows where to get a Speck case for this phone? ATT sells a pink one, but yeaahhh...I'm not gonna test my manliness with a pink case.
I'm also surprised that Incipio is not in on this phone like they were with the atrix. They were one of the first cases available for the Atrix.

Video Review: Case-Mate Tough Case

Hey guys,
I usually post on the Int. Galaxy S II and Nexus S forums but my roommate recently picked up the Epic Touch 4G so I'm going to start with some coverage on cases for the device. The folks over at Case-Mate sent me out their Tough case for review, and I will be bringing more reviews of their cases in the coming weeks.
The Tough case is a dual layered case that offers good protection and style, although is it a little thick. You can find the full video below:
I would love to see a review of the barely there brushed aluminum case that casemate is making for the phone.

I agree! Taking it off is easy for me, however putting it back on can sometimes be a pain.
For those who may want to purchase one, I've found a deal on it - only 25$ at Accessorygeeks:
http://www.accessorygeeks.com/case-...AMSUNG&utm_campaign=CASE&utm_content=CM017002
Don't bother. I placed an order a couple days ago and it was taking my item forever to ship. I called them and they told me the item was on backorder and they won't be receiving stock till 11/30. They didn't even bother to notify me that they were out of stock so i won't be doing business with them anymore.
Really? That kind of blows...I was hoping they'd be a good company.

I can confirm the item is backordered, they are now saying 11/22, so I am cancelling my order.
I can confirm that too..a viewer told me the same thing.
On the other hand, I've got some more reviews coming so stay tuned for that
Ordered mine today.. had a Tough on my HTC Inspire and loved it.
Amazon has it for 28$ right now

I have posted some comparison shots in this review thread.
To be honest though, I didn't like the Brushed Aluminium all that much.. ended up giving it to a co-worker and ordering another TPU Matte Back Black.
Got my tough case today for Christmas. Must say that I love it. The tpu I had wasn't bad but the added protection and grip of this case is much better! Comparable to an otterbox commuter series. Not super bulky like the defender series.

Just got it in. Put it on, and it makes the phone feel so much more stable. I'll post some pics later, but it fits like a glove just like the pics on their site. Nice and snug. No gaps anywhere. The inner part is really soft touch silicon almost squishy rubber feeling, and the outer layer is a hard shell plastic, but it has that soft felt touch. Very high quality. All the holes line up perfectly. I recommend it.
Any pictures?

Video Review - SGS2 Incipio Silicrylic Case
I like the case! IMHO it's the best one available out there right now for the SGS2 for T-Mobile. Much better than the Body Glove cases they sell at the T-Mobile store (yes I've tried them all). I give it a 9/10 watch my video review (first ever, so apologies in advance) here:

SGP Crumena Leather Pouch for Galaxy Nexus

Just got this thing in and man it's sexy. I'll have a full review up in a few days on my YouTube channel so keep checking on it: http://youtube.com/BlackPrince310
Looking great How's the fit?
Make sure when you get it you give us specifics like are you LTE or GSM and if you can see how it fits with the extended battery (if you are lte.)
I want one but I am fixing to mod my gnex to work with a touchstone so I want to know that it will fit comfortably, especially for something that is 30 bucks.

alright got mine in the mail today... its really classy looking... fit is tight... like it was made for the phone but its genuine leather so it will stretch for a better fit with time... as u know leather gets better with wear... fit in pocket is really nice... same as the naked phone in pocket but more secure. for sure protects... its perfect if u prefer your phone naked, or going to a meeting or meeting someone for coffee looks really nice set on the table... i really think it was worth buying...

Just buy the case. I have had mine for 3 days now and I think it is the best case I've had. Real quality feel with good protection. And the strap makes it so easy to get the phone out of the case.
I have a Sena Ultraslim as well, but the Crumena is much better! The only thing is that it is a little bit wider compared to the Ultraslim, so the phone will feel a little larger. But I dont mind, the overall feel is really good. Smells fresh leather too =)
I ordered one yesterday and I have an LTE with the extended battery, so I will report back how it is.
i am currently using following case and pouch
http://stores.ebay.co.uk/luckyexpress168
Thanks for the pics OP. Anxiously awaiting the review.
For those that have it - is the snugness of the case affected by the direction you put the phone in? I usually like to put it in with the top of the phone at the opening.
Just ordered a black version earlier. Wanted to go naked on the phone with this instead =).
Those who have this pouch, could you tell me what material being used inside? Is it soft cloth or leather a well? I'm a bit worried it can scratch the screen
I'm really interested in the black version, do they ship to US?

TPU Bumper

Anyone bought the following TPU Bumper for the Galaxy Nexus?
http://www.ebay.com/itm/TPU-BUMPER-...t=LH_DefaultDomain_0&var=&hash=item905d2ca610
How is the fit for the GSM version of the GNex?
Will the TPU bumper lift the camera lens away from the surface like how I suppose the front lip (which I hope is minimal) can lift the screen away from the surface when the phone is placed downwards?
How is the gloss like? Any other similar products with matte?
Are the buttons cut-out?
Does it add a lot, width wise?
Is the tpu rubbery? in the sense that it is sometimes hard to pocket?
Wow... lots of questions lol.
Crap, I just found a thread that has the same link. Thread title: "Best Case for Extended Battery $5 (Picture)"
Sorry if I accidentally double posted, my mind filtered out any threads where extended batteries are referred to since I have the standard batt.
Looks good, I am also looking for one.
but not shipping to sg
I ordered one of these. Should be here one day next month. I hate waiting, but that's what it is when shipping from overseas.

Mine was delivered on Friday. Very nice... fits perfectly and doesn't add much extra to the phone. It easily slips into your pocket fine even with the rubber which is only very slight. The buttons are covered with the rubber giving it a nice feel while protecting them. I got the black one and the phone feels very good in the hand with it on. Looks very stylish and still retains the GNex look while protecting it.
Hope this info helps. Only issue was it took 3 weeks to get to me..... only got the postal service to blame for that though LOL
I ordered 2 last weekend. My GNEX had been the first phone that I've gone naked with for this long and I'm loving it, but get freaked out of the thought of dropping it with no protection. Hopefully this is a good compromise.

Ordered the b&w, will review it when I get it. Thanks a lot for the tip!
I finally received my TPU bumper last week. It's definitely for the GSM version, though I don't mind it on my VZW phone. I like it a lot. But yesterday, the black TPU portion separated away from the white plastic section at the USB port area so I can't use it anymore. Could just be a fluke in my case though. I contacted the original seller to see what they can do.
I doesn't notice it in HK!

The quality of the plastic is superior. Once I bought one for my Galaxy Nexus I've got one for every phone since then. They are the best TPU brand for phones.
You won't regret it. It's cheap too!
My SII Skyrocket Diztronic case ended up being my favorite of the various cases I tried.
Not at all flashy. Nothing special about it.
It just "works" properly. And doesn't get beat up like cheaper cases do.
And I like that they are finally doing cutouts for BOTH the volume & power unlike on my last case.
I hate anything covering the power or volume buttons. Though some folks do like that.
I've used these cases for 2 years on Captivate, Infuse, Galaxy Nexus and Note. They're grippy, durable and fit perfectly. I just ordered one for my S3. Thanks for the heads-up.
I already have Rock Case, 4 Cruzerlite TPU cases... and a Leather pouch... Do I need/want one more....?
I have a Cruzelite...definitely sub par to the Diztronic cases I've had in the past and I'm sure it will be the same with the new one I have on the way.

cruzerlite is garbage. i sent it in for a refund. the cut outs dont even line up with the ports correctly lol
Sorry for the delay in getting our S III cases up guys, I was out of town and had an employee put them up. Unfortunately she accidentally set the start selling date as July 6th so the pages never went live. I said didn't you realize we weren't getting any orders?! We sent inventory to Amazon on Friday so Prime shipping options should be available either Tuesday or Wednesday.
We did include a screen protector with this release made of Japanese film. When we first started including screen protectors we were using a Korean film, which is slightly better than Chinese but still had some rainbowing and purpling. These Japanese based ones are great, very good clarity. Even though including them almost doubles our costs we've kept our prices the same for the time being. Thanks everyone for your continued support!
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
Just got the matte-clear case! Looking forward to getting it in the mail
OneStepAhead, does the screen protector cover the entire front and have cut-outs?

The company resides and manufactures in America (Madison, WI, near me!!). The customer service is absolutely OUTSTANDING. You basically end up talking to a real person who is dead set on making sure you're satisfied.
And TPU, in general, is perfect for me. Thin, adds a little grip but doesn't stick in pockets.

cldn't agree more, they are indeed bad. Just ordered Diztronic for my S III . Loved it on my Nexus , was waiting for a week for it to be available in the meanwhile i thought i would try cruzerlite . Apart from the fit, i dint like the looks of it too, esp that i wanted something with a plain back matte finish . Diztronic was the perfect fit . Love it Love it!!!
Actually they are in Madison, but my EVO 4G LTE Diz TPU's specifically stated Manufactured in China.
I put them in a bowl of water and they don't sink so I'd guess they aren't full of lead.
The water did turn green and looked like antifreeze though (just kidding!)

We are in Madison, WI but unfortunately we have our cases made in China for the time being. I'm looking at potentially having them made in Akron, OH but it's not set in stone at this point. If anyone has any contacts with US based factories that can manufacturer TPU cases feel free to contact me. For now we are using the same lingo everyone else uses, "Designed in ___ Manufactured in China". Our screen protectors however are manufactured in Japan. Some of you should be receiving your GS III cases today, I know at least one XDA member received theirs on Saturday as they were in Wisconsin. I'm looking forward to seeing some feedback as my GS III from Sprint hasn't arrived yet!

It doesn't have a cutout for the camera, as in my opinion I'd rather have it covered so it's protected. If someone can show me an example of diminished picture quality because of it I may be swayed to make a cutout for it in the future. As far as going all the way to the edge of the glass, from what I understand it's not possible to do so on the GS III because of the way the glass tapers on the edges, so we made the screen protector in the same way as our One X screen protector. It essentially covers the flat part of the glass. You could probably go all the way to the edge with a wet adhesive based screen protector, but with a static type screen protector they would just peel up.
