Check it out! They are releasing it mid march. Works for the US Verizon version with the extended battery.

It's discounted to $20.80 and free shipping. Comes in three colors right now - Alpine White, Black, and Metallic. I just preordered the metallic being that I have the non Verizon Alpine White version.

Grrrrrr....... and I just bought the Diztronic TPU Version 3 case.
Awesome! I'm torn between the Matte Black or White. I have a Diztronic Glossy Black that I love. I bought a Matte Black and it didn't provide enough grip.
Is the White and Metallic glossy? Last time I bought a Ringke case it was sort of a foam, these seem like a hard plastic. I'd love white but I think it would end up dirty and stained.
Update:
I just bought the Metallic. Everyone says it blends in real well with the original color which is nice because there are spots that the actual phone shows through like on the sides.
Just ordered a metallic. Hope it doesn't suck!
Just ordered the matte black, can't wait for it to get here...

Did anyone see how thick the case was? I'm curious to find out how much bulk it would add to the phone.
"We Listened. We Created. We Delivered"
I love it! its great to see manufacturers listen to the customers and give them EXACTLY what they want. I already have 3 cases, but I'm thinking of buying one just to support them.
You really don't see this that much esp since this case will fit the extended AND standard. Great job Rearth!

settle down killer, the Diz is only $7.

Guess Ringke doesn't have any love for the GSM variant's extended Battery eh? :/ that's a disappointment.

As long as the case is larger, it should be ok. We're talking about millimeters here. It'll probably fit but have some play which could be corrected if you get creative.
I think they went for it is because Verizon is the only carrier in the US and they had extended batteries from day 1... for 50% off... so most people picked it up. A case that is a tad thicker is better then a case that is too thin.
I want the alpine white case, my only concern is if it starts to stain or discolor only after a few days. Anyone have any opinions on this?

From the sounds of it.. sounds like you've ordered one if you did, report back I mean Canada has GSM Galaxy Nexuses. It's not always about USA.

Constantly see "not only about the USA" type stuff, which it's certainly true... But I just had to lol, there are so many more GSM-minded cases than LTE/VZW.

I got one of these and I love it! My only critisism is that the rubber plugs for the micro usb and headphone socket have discoloured slightly by my jeans.
It's not enough to get another case though!
I had the alpine white for a few days now and no signs of stains or dicolor ..I also have the full body white carbon fiber skin under it and had no problems..got it from eBay and comes with screen protector for around $26

I understand the whole USA vs GSM issue but USA only has LTE models which are different in size anyway from the GSM variant, so GSM snug fitting cases won't work anyway.
So thats a huge chunk of customers they want to account for. LTE specifically, which most of the LTE phones probably have the extended because they were selling them at such a good price.
And yes I bought the Metallic as noted on the first page. Ringke is a great company and I've demoed a few of their products in the past to know they are high quality. I too wanted the white but I've seen lots of "white" cases. I would have also liked a Glossy Black. The matte is nice but actually feels more slippery then the gloss. The gloss has a "sticky" feel that helps keep it in my hands.
The Metallic is supposedly glossy and matches the phone pretty well, according to the GSM thread. We'll see. Can't wait.
Anyone know where this case can be seen in person? I'd like to hold one before I buy it.

You mentioned this works with the extended battery, does that include the verizon model and does it leave any abnormal bulge. The high gloss case from verizon fits really nice but the speaker cutout has a small gap. With OCD its very annoying.
Excellent product from a company with REAL customer service.

I have to say though, after using it for a week I took it off, and I had forgotten how slim and light the phone is.
Going caseless now...
I couldn't find the Black Matte v3 cases on Amazon during CES. I ended up ordering a transparent black which I'm unsure if I'll like. I really wanted the black matte as shown in the video and seeing it makes me want it more.
yeah, the guys were at ces, but contact them im sure they ll help you out
I like the case, but I want one in white. Anyone has an email for them, or will I have to open a ticket?
I would love white, but I bought my GF a white TPU case last year and the thing is dank now. I bought her a pink one when I ordered my Diztronic case.
I'll see about the smoke gray. It might not be too bad. I like my SGP Black case now because I don't even notice its on. The black blends in with the screen so well it just feels normal.

You're right. I bought a white TPU case from Diztronic for my Thundebolt last year, and in a couple months, the color went from (somewhat) white to a ugly combo of ugly yellow/pinkish white. Of course it was a glossy version, so perhaps a matte white combo would work better... maybe...
Right now I have a Hybrid S-line TPU that I got for a buck from eBay, and I just love how the white rim of the case contrasts so well against the black face of the phone. It doesn't fit with the extended battery cover though, which is a bummer.
just bought one on ebay !
Thank you !
cant wait, just not sure how it ships to israel and australia faster than canada?
Just search diztronic nexus, only this showed up, bought the back matte
I purchased this case. I'm a sucker for white cases. I thought you VZW GNEX folks out there would like to know how it fits.
I'm sorry to say that I am a bit disappointed.
This case will probably be great for the GSM version. I was not satisfied with the fit on the Verizon G-NEX. As you can see the case is a bit shallow on top of the phone. Compared to the Verizon TPU cases, this case seemed loose and could slide off, again probably because this was meant for the GSM phone. As a note, I do not have the extended battery.

Well if you decide to sell it. Im your man :-D
I have the Black Version. Been using it for a few weeks now. I use mine with the Extended Battery and Backplate. It won't fall out, but I did mention (with pics) that it was too shallow at the top of the phone (where I never thought it would have a problem).
The phone fits good on the Extended battery backplate. Real nice and tight. The case fits perfectly at the bottom. The case lip is fine but only the top half is too shallow.
It still fits... not perfectly but fits. I've never had the case come off or remotely make me think otherwise. It is pretty good quality and I like that the black blends in with the screen pretty well.
That said, I did order a Diztronic v3 case with the button cutouts. It supposedly fits better. We'll see. I should be getting it Wednesday (or today!). I got the Smoke Gray and I probably won't like the color. I'm really digging the Matte Black or White but they didn't have any available during CES.
Here is my review of the SGP Capsule case: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=21385362&postcount=42
Edit:
Mine seems to fit better. All my corners are covered, its only the buttons that are out of whack. Perhaps you got the GSM model.
Perhaps. Buttons alignment is good however.

I think you will, build quality is good. I like a little bit of a lip around the screen so if it happens to fall face first, there is less of a chance of contact.

Thank you for the reassurance. How long did you have to wait to get your case? I am assuming you are in US and got USPS to ship it.
About 7 days.
Just got my white ultra capsule today too for the CDMA version. As stated the fit isn't very good around the top but it is a beautiful case. I was wondering if anyone has tried any modification to the top section to make it fit better?
Anyone willing to trade their white case for a brand new matte black barely there case,I have the GSM version and it doesn't fit mine.

So I just got my 3 new Cruzer lite cases and thought I would write a lil review on it and share with everyone. I have 2 of the previous Cruzer lite cases (Black & Clear) and loved them. So when I saw Cruzer had new cases coming, I just had to get them. I got the Green, Clear, and Black. This case is WAY better than the previous version. First off, it does not add any major bulk to the phone. It does add some, but very little. It has to add some or it wouldnt be able to protect the phone now would it? I compared it to a TPU case in the Verizon store and was thinner than that. Sorry, dont have make or model. I just ran in for a quick look at. The volume keys are cut out. It didnt bother me in the other case but just looks and feels much better now. The sides have a nice grip on them. Makes it nice when pulling out of my pockets. And last, the back. WOW o WOW. Love Andy the Android on the back. I am using the clear 1 at the moment. The case doesnt attract fingerprints bad at all. My wife hates Android as she had bad luck but when I showed her my new cases when I got home, she even said, thats pretty cool. As I have said before, I HATED cases before finding Cruzer Lite for my Nexus. I highly recommend you purchase 1, 2 or all of the colors Cruzer Lite offers.
For all colors available, go here: BEST CASES EVER
For those of you with headphones with big jacks, use this adapter so it will fit with the case on. Only $1.30 shipped!!

Thanks for the write up. I plan on ordering a couple of these soon. I wish there was an all matte one though. The glossy ones seem to attract fingerprints more and are more slippery. I planned on ordering the black one too.
I'm gonna give these a shot either way though. I love that Andy is on the back.

If I had to guess I'd say they were molded from the LTE version. There is extra room when you fit this case on the GSM version.
If you were on the fence of getting this case, check out this...Front page of Droid-Life...you know it has to be good.

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.

Case came in yesterday and overall its a damn good fit and feel for just $4.
Bought a white one but will probably order a black one as well.
I'll post up pics in a bit.
Got the case from the OP yesterday..*FINALLY*!!
I'm using the CDMA version with the extended battery and the fit is fantastic.
I hate having a case on this phone because it just looks and feels so great in hand naked.
This case feels great AND it's minimal enough that it maintains that sexy nexxy look and feel. Seriously, it looks great in person. Couldn't be happier!

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 got that one in white. Waiting on the Marble White version to be available for AT&T.
The ONE thing nice about not having the phone in hands yet is it has given me time to get some goodies on order with cheap shipping. I have four cases headed my way (yes idle hands). As you will see from my selections, I like cases that are TPU or similar for absorbing shock. I don't like very bulky cases.

I feel like having a big case on the note will be too much.

Case I ordered
This is the case I ordered from Korea.
1) some sort of a metallic material bumper case (black)
2) some sort of a metallic material battery cover (black)
and its going to be going on the Titanium Grey colored version of the note 2
by the way the second picture is the metal battery cover by itself.
I got this clear hard shell case at Amazon for $10.99.
Trident. Just have to baby it for a month or so. :good:
Ive got the Nilikin cases in white and black. Not a fan of the texture. But it was the only thing available that was decent at the time. Im waiting for the Elago slim cases to come out which i have on my original Note.

hey guys i got a quick question im currently married to my skyrocket...but im leaving her for this beautful note 2. something i came across that was rather annoying with the skyrocket when it came to cases is that the phone style changed based on the carriers. e.g the speaker orientation on the sgs2 hercules vs the sgs2 skyrocket where different. even tho they are the same phone specs wise. is this the same here since all the cases linked here are for the n7100 and our phones are the n7137m and n7147m or something to that effect thanks for your replies in advance
The note 2 as far as dimensions go are the same across all models. So all cases will work

thanks bro
I just ordered this case :http://tinyurl.com/cbtohpn
and this one: http://tinyurl.com/c7cae3j
both from ebay
i also bought the ZAGG body shield
Boxwave case with the integrated stand. I have the black one on my current Note and it works great. The stand isn't super strong (can't expect it to be on a slim plastic case) but it's built well and holds the phone well also.
The case isn't available yet so keeping an eye out.
