Thinnest case for extended battery Nexus ? - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Just bought the extended battery at Verizon for half off, also walked out with the Incipio double case. This case feels tough and sure can take s beating, great for outdoor work and kids dropping my phone. But this case is a little too thick for my liking.
But on weekends or going out would like a second thinner case. What thin cases fit the extended battery ? Anything like the Feather or Rearth slim fit ?

I just use ghost armor full body, and then I use a belt clip pouch that I drop my phone into. It is the slimmest option, I protect the whole phone from scratches, and I can keep it on my side. I'm not really worried about dropping it, because even with a case if you drop it in the right spot, you will end up with a broken phone. That's what insurance is for. At least that's my opinion. I hope this helps.

I just picked up the Diztronic case below and it fits great and doesn't add much thickness to the phone- nice and thin. I don't have my extended battery yet but per the reviews this case fits, just a little more tightly which is fine with me.

+1 on the Diztronic 3rd revision case. I am running it and I love it. I have 3 other cases and this is now my daily driver. You can even leave the extended battery cover on too. I use the Incopio when I need extra protection.

Also a big +1 on the Diztronic rev 3 case. Full access to all controls, full protection yet thin. Just about perfect as far as cases go and I have tried a few.
Diztronic has very upstanding customer service to boot!

Does anyone know if the big case companies, plan to make official extended battery cases ? Like Case-Mate and their Barely Case ?

I've been bugging Rearth about making their RingKe case to fit the Verizon w/ extended battery. This case has been getting a lot of accolades here...

With the Verizon extended battery going for $24.99, it should just come standard with the phone. At such a cheap price, and only adds like a business card extra thickness it is so worth it. Plus you may get up to 2 extra hours on it over stock.
Point being, with extended battery so popular, I would hope case companies realize this, and pump out cases that are officially designed for it.

I checked their website and it isn't showing the extended battery at all. You can purchase these at their stores for 25.00?

My local Verizon store didn't have any in stock but they ordered it for me w/ free 2-day shipping. Still $24.99

I went into the biggest Verizon store in my area, called first asked if they had the Nexus extended battery, they said YES, and tons of accessories too. Go in there and they said the battery is 50% off, they had like 4 on the shelf. Just call the largest Verizon store in your area, I am sure they stock them.
I am using the phone today with no case, crosses fingers The Incipio 2pc case was just way too bulky for me, felt like a my old EVO 4G which was a giant. Back to caselsss and this phone looks awesome, the gray color makes this phone looks stealth, like something a pilot from F-22 Raptor plane would have in the cockpit I just want a razor thin case to go around this now.

Oddly enough I tried the High gloss silicone Verizon case and its is really nice. feels thin in the hand

I use the SGP capsule case. Its clearly designed for the GSM version because my Verizon + extended battery keeps the lips from grabbing the edges all the way.
But the phone is on there and not going anywhere. You'd have to really look at it to see what I'm talking about.
I'm still waiting for something specifically designed for the Verizon with extended battery.

Hopefully we get some news soon from the big case companies

Does anyone know if the Diztronic case works with the GSM Galaxy Nexus with an extended battery?

The best case I've tried period that also works with the extended battery is the Case-Mate Pop case. It was recalled initially due to a lack of clearance around the micro usb port. In about another two weeks they'll have the second revision out and it will be my daily driver.
I've tried the Case-Mate Tough Case, the Boxwave Active, the Boxwave Slim Rubberized Shell Case, and the Seidio Surface. The Pop case sucked less than the rest and fits the extended battery with good protection and minimal bulk.

can't comment if it's the thinnest, but it fits and looks good.

Best EVO case?

I definitely need some recommendations on cases. I currently have a Sedio Innocase Active (blue). Its definitely taken a beating. And the soft (inner part of the case gets annoying, and is definitely showing some wear. What cases do you guys have on your phones? I need a new case ASAP! I dont really have much of a preference. Just as long as its durable, and looks good!!!

If you want SERIOUS protection, the Ballistic HC is the only way to go. I ordered mine the day they released them and haven't even thought about using anything else since. Some people don't like how bulky it is, but nothing else even comes close to the level of protection you get with the Ballistic.

i started having issues with my ballistic case a few months ago. The rubber border next to the power button became detached, and I received a replacement for the front that was a little different in design. The rubber on it started peeling as well and the proximity sensor doesn't pick up, so it is impossible for my screen to turn on while in a call (hitting the power button in a call doesn't work either)
I'm looking into an alternative, and possibly one to hold an extended battery case as well.
I use the Otter commuter case, modified to fit with my extended battery. Dropped it pretty hard twice on concrete, phone came out just fine. Only issue I have with the case is the cover for the HDMI and Micro usb ports. Doesn't stay closed.
I know you didn't ask about an extended battery, but I'm just going to put in my .02c for the trident case with the extended 2000MaH battery:
http://www.tridentcase.com/product_5_117.html
It has exchangable rubber bumpers that you can purchase separately, AND it has a built in screen protector. i've had mine for months now, dropped the device 2x and absolutely NO damage.
Wonderful case for the price and an extended battery that really didn't add that much thickness.
Otterbox Commuter = Awesome
I HIGHLY recommend the Otterbox Commuter series case. I've had it for almost a year now, and it is amazing. I've been pretty rough with my phone, but it has saved it from any sort of damage. It provides fantastic protection and feels solid and strong in my hands, but at the same time it doesn't make the phone seem bulky and has a great very smooth, sleek, thin feel to it. Definitely the best of both worlds in terms of balancing strong protection with sleek good looks.
Another thing I love about Otterbox is their amazing customer service and 1-year no-questions-asked warranty guarantee. I recently broke the case itself somehow (the phone stayed completely protected though) so I emailed their warranty services and told them, and they simply asked for my shipping address and sent me a new case in under a week! They didn't even ask for a copy of the receipt or pictures of the broken case. It was the fastest, easiest warranty claim I've ever had.
If you do go for an Otterbox, definitely buy it off eBay and not retail. You'll save yourself a good $20-25. It's about $12 new on eBay. I'd post a link, but I'm still a noob
Otterbox is definitely the way to go. I am unaware of what solutions they have available for extended batteries but it may be worth while to look into.

I too have to throw in a full reccomendation for the Otterbox Commuter.
Fits like a glove, and keeps the phone stylishly protected. It looks great, and has saved my phone from 4 drops I've made (one which I thought the case couldn't have saved it from, but nevertheless it did.)
I like the silicone ones. easy to deal with.

I have to agree with him. Also check out Incipio feather case. Best as far as having a slim phone with some protection.
Otterbox commuter is inmho the best if your hard on your phones, or you want extra protection.
But I switched to the casemate barely there about 4 months ago and its hands down, my favorite case. Ive dropped my evo a ton of times, and.its still doing just fine...

If you go for the Commuter (which I highly recommend; it offers great protection, but has great style, feels good in my hand, and doesn't add significant bulk), you should get it here on eBay. Save yourself $25.

I had the otterbox impact case. It is way too loose, doesnt fit snug on the phone. Over time gets even bigger almost a quarter inch too long vertically than the phone. Dissapointing.
If you really want protection I recomend the ballistic case. It's rugged and very durable. I got mine on Amazon for about 30 bucks after shipping

Seidio Surface for LTE is for sale

Oddly, it's not a slide-on but rather a snap-on. I think this is a good thing, however, because for both of my previous phones the slide case became loose. This snap-on will probably fare better.

And? Did they?
I ordered a black one today. I'm a little skeptical over the snap-on design because of how happy I've been with the Surface on my last 2 phones (Eris and TBolt), which were both the slide-on type. The case options are pretty limited for a phone with this much hype but I'm sure the Surface will deliver as it has in the past.
I just ordered this case with the holster and I have the extended battery so I'll let you know on Thursday whether they are compatable. If not, I'll probably return the battery, as I love Seidio's cases. I used the surface case on my OG Droid for the past two years, and while I had to replace the holster once due to the spring breaking it otherwise did a great job and protected my phone from a drop onto pavement as well as regular wear and tear. It would be nice to know before thursday though if the extended battery will work with the Seidio case. 250mah for a negligible increase in thickness is really great. I think the phone should have shipped with this battery by default.
It's not a slide on because of the curvature and the hump on the back.
Just like the Nexus S, I had the Seidio Surface. It's the same way.
It's two pieces sliced sideways.
One is the rear part, one is the front part.
I personally do not like this version. You can feel it creak and move around as you hold the phone because of how it holds/stay on the phone.
I just bought the rocket fish case from best buy today and I have an extended battery. Fit is tight but it fits, I would strongly recommend this case.

I had it on my Nexus S. I will not be buying this for my Galaxy Nexus unfortunately.
The way it goes on is like a sandwich, the phone is the meat, and the bread is the case that goes on top/bottom of the phone and latches on in itself.
This is something what the Seidio Galaxy Nexus is like: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Samsung-Gal...d-Case-Black-Phone-Cover-Screen-/380395449922
Snaps on front/back.
I'll have to find some other case with a face in holster.
This one is looking good, though it doesn't protect the top/bottom of the phone.

Seidio say no-go on extended battery...
Hi, all..
Just got off the fone with Seidio Customer Support (outstanding CS, BTW). Seidio says no-go on the VZW extended battery w/ Surface case.
The CS agent sounded quite knowledgeable, but I will await reports from you brave souls that have ordered it. The VZW extended battery really doesn't add that much bulk to the back of the device, but tight tolerances make for a better fit....IMHO..
She further stated that she will forward this to the development folks. I assured her that their will be a demand...
Cheers...
Sk..
Has anyone received their case yet? I ordered mine on Friday, got an email saying it shipped via USPS on Monday but USPS says only the electronic billing slip was received.
Edit: Looks like the Black Surface case is on backorder now too...
Is there a lip around the screen from the case? I'd like a close-to-flush feel on the front.
No Go. No Verizon Extended Battery support.
Ringke's Slim model denied me also.

Incipio double cover case

Just wanted to let all of you GSM users out there, I bought the case from the Verizon store and it was an utter waste. Seems like a good case but its loose and floppy even with the GSM extended battery and cover. I'm guessing based on the fit that this might fit tighter for those with the Verizon version and extended battery. Not cheap at 30 bucks either. Was nice getting to see the product in the flesh before buying but didn't pan out. Attracts lint and dust like crazy too.

Galaxy Nexus Incipio Silicrylic

Picked up an Incipio Silicrylic for my (GSM) Samsung Galaxy Nexus. Great form factor & snug fit for a Hybrid case. Its build quality is top notch as we've come to expect from Incipio. The case offers good protection & can handle most mid range impacts. I had a friend try it on his Sprint GNex and I must say that it wasn't a perfect fit. Even though most sites say it's compatible with the CDMA version.(It's NOT) but is capable of handling the extended battery for the GSM version.
Anymore pics from your phone? How's the silicone on the bottom part? Floppy? Sturdy? Does it collect much dust?
The silicon is actually pretty sturdy and it's not that prone to being ripped. I have all black version, and it collects dust like mad..

i just ordered the white/grey one straight from incipio and it was on sale for $17.99 and i got it in 3 days from CA to CT.
I have this case on the LTE verizon GN, and it works great.
I often use the official extended battery, though it is a somewhat tight fit for this case. As noted for the GSM extended battery above, it does push the bottom of the case out a bit, so there is a slight gap. Removing the battery cover will get rid of the gap, but I tend to leave the cover on and ignore the gap.

The lint attraction is pretty much non-existant. Gets an A+ on that subject. As for the screen protector Incipio includes with the case. It's terrible,very cheap. I actually threw it out. But the case overall is one of the best I've used and I've spent a small fortune looking for solid cases. Incipio has proven to be a great brand.

My friend has this on her Nexus. I felt like it made it too bulky for my liking. But it's definitely a great case that gives good protection.
I bought the grey and white one which i really like. To bad the black one would attrack dust and lint just by looking at it to hard!
My GF has this case on the Verizon GNexus and it fits really well. Well made and the smoother backing makes it easier to pocket. Silicone does collect some dust but since its so little surface area, its not that bothersome. It seems like it would really protect well but I'm not going to test that out!
Perseus by Trident
So, I ordered finally a trident perseus orange, looks good, have heard that doesn't give bulk to GNEX and provides light drop protection. In fact there is a discount at tridenteer.com 25% and free shipping in the US, I ordered it to Poland and payed 15$ with shipping over the ocean! Maybe I'll make some review after I got it

Looking for a good combo rubber case/clip holster/kickstand...

My phone is the Verizon Galaxy Nexus i515 and I've had the red Seidio cover for a long time. It came with a clip holster but the clip broke after 2 days. Got another holster and it broke again in 6 days. This was just from slight/small snags.
Basically I'm looking for something that can hold up against small snags. Also has all 3 combo (good rubber case/kickstand/clip holster).
This is something I'm looking for... only downside to this one is it doesn't come with a clip holsters. There's no indication, even on "what else user's bought after buying this", whether any clip holster will fit this particular brand. Link below...

I like the thickness of it and how it has small covers for the USB port and headphone jack. It also has the kickstand.
Does anybody have this particular one and have a clip holster with it? If you do, which one fits with this brand? If not, is there anything exactly like the link above with all 3 combo?

Probably not. These are for stock only. I think I saw a Seidio case awhile back that had options to accommodate a bigger battery door. Seidio and Trident are my 2 preferred cases but I've never looked into one for bigger batteries cause I've never had an extended battery before.

I think with a better wording for what you're looking for is making it harder to find one. I know some products require specific wording in the search in order for it to show up. I was hoping that link would get you somewhere. I'll help you look for something when I get home from work.
You could also start a thread, if you haven't yet, and see if anyone bought what you're looking for and can point you to where they got it from.
Are you looking for a similar combo like mine (kickstand, holster, hard/rubber casing)?

The Kraken case is really good. Its encasing my Gnex right now. Provides ultimate protection and with military grade screen protector. Only issue with it
Is that its a pain in the arse to take apart when I have to do battery pulls sometime when flashing ROMs. I have no complaint about the rest of it.

Thanks for the replies. I've got the Verizon holster and I like it but with this OEM extended battery and cover, its a real snug fit. In fact it's really too snug.

My carbon case. It comes with a two layer case with a really cool kickstand, a holster that can double as a stand, and I screen protector for under 15 bucks on amazon. I don't have a like but it's pretty easy to find
