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.

I ordered my case from the op's link for my verizon nexus.
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 doesn't notice it in HK!

Looks pretty cool. Might order one
nice.. but is expensive.. will wait for a chinese maker to come up with a replica ;-)
I agree ^ looks quite nice but is a bit too expensive. If a cheaper alternative becomes available, I might just grab one.
This looks to be the best case for the note yet.
How well made is it?
Is it as protective as a casemate or otterbox commuter?
Hell, I might get this case

Curious about this one as well.
I was going to wait for the casemate, but this looks just as good as the other versions of casemate imo. And why wait when your phone could get scratched up? It takes 10 days minimum to ship, so if you guys are on the fence about ordering it, order soon cause the wait is kinda long

Don't forget that orders from China can take a long time around new year, and...

Can the owners comment how much extra thickness does it add to the note?
From the pictures it looks like it will add more thickness than a TPU silicone case.
And how soft are the insides against the phone? No point having a protective cover that leaves a permanent dent on the unit. Thanks in advance
I would advise against the white colour, because over time it will absorb the colour of your jeans/bad etc etc.
The black and Cyan is a good combo, it reminds me of ICS and CyanogenMod. Plus the black will fit nicely with a locked screen + bezel.
I don't think they were specially contructed like the Otterbox (those things take a beating), but it looks quite protective. However its so thick that I wont be getting it as it wont fit in my pockets anymore.
I've already bought the Black&Gray TPU-Silicon case (with kickstand) and I'll post my impressions when I get some "hands on"
just ordered one too, kinda expensive but hopefully its a nice case
Another case reviewed guys
Diztronic updated and modded their case and now came with version 3.0 . There are some nice changes like getting rid of the tpu buttons and putting a little more gloss.
Check it out

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.

Fits fine, loved the case...
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 have this case in all clear. All the holes line up correctly as long as you put it on right. The only issue I have with it is the kickstand rubs on the back of the phone when you open it and may eventually leave small marks if used enough.
I ordered the same case in black without the kickstand and I am going to put my FlyGrip back on it. This thing is awesome as long as you don't mind the extra thickness.

I tried out a Body Glove case at an at&t store and it feels way better than the case I mentioned above. I finally put my Flygrip on it today. It's a bit expensive, but it makes the phone more comfortable and you really can't tell the difference in your pocket. It also helps keep the speaker off wherever you placed your phone so it doesn't dampen your notifications / ringtones.
I just got my cheapo TPU kickstand case
(http://www.ebay.com/itm/TPU-Plastic...ccessories&hash=item4845f27e73#ht_3661wt_1396)
It's actually pretty nice so far! The matte pieces are harder plastic, and the clear parts are softer TPU. I was a little worried that the sides would be uncomfortable to hold, but the texture is fairly dull so they don't poke your fingers.
The big draw for me was the kickstand, which is mostly ok. It works, in that it flips out. I do have two concerns though... (1) as you can see, there's no other layer underneath, so when it's open that part of the back case is exposed. This isn't a big problem except I expect it to trap a bit of lint and stuff. Then, (2) hopefully there is enough clearance for it to open that it's not rubbing on the phone all the time. It's also a little hard to get a fingernail in there to open it, but not horrible. It's hard to complain too badly for $7.50, including a screen protector, a neat little stylus (which is actually pretty great, probably the best touchscreen stylus I've used so far), and an entertaining Engrish manual.
Disclaimer: Fitment review is TBD, however, it fits my new cardboard GS3 pretty well (pictured) Now, I just need my real one! I also got the clear version to show off my pebble blue, as opposed to the pictured "white" model.
Edit: I should also note that I got some of those XtremeGuard body skins that were on sale and plan to put them on as well. So, hopefully that will protect the back case against possible wear from the kickstand, as well as mitigating the issue with that section of the case being "open".

here is the case i bought on ebay.
Hey guys I ordered two Elago Breathe Cases for the GS3 from Amazon. I purchased the Glossy White as well as a blue called Glossy Coral. They cost $9.99 each and since I have prime I got two day shipping for free. Here is the direct link for the cases for the GS3:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/aag/main?ie=UTF8&asin=&isAmazonFulfilled=1&isCBA=&marketplaceID=ATVPDKIKX0DER&seller=A23S71QXDZCPQA
I purchased the white one for myself and the blue one for my girlfriend. The cases are very thin and sleek. They feel great in the hand and do not add extra bulk to the phone. The top and bottom of the case is open so you wont get overall protection there, so be careful when handling it and not dropping it. There is a slight lip, but I don't think that it will keep the phone raised up enough off a surface if you lay the phone flat on the screen side. I would definitely recommend putting a screen protector on to be combined with this case. I had already purchased a screen protector the day I picked up the phone from the store, however Elago actually sells the case together with a screen protector from amazon as well. The prices for the two combined are $24.99, and the screen protectors from Elago are $8.99 alone. There are cut outs on the sides for the power button and the volume rocker. I feel that the cut outs aren't recessed enough, and your made aware of it however it does not bother me too much. Overall I am very happy with the cases especially for the price. I would definitely buy from Elago again, and I do like the variety of colors that they offer the cases in. I like the Breathe style because they are different than all of these other snap on thin cases and make the phone stand out more. I took some pics from various angles with both cases on the phone and off the phone with my dslr so you guys can take a look for yourselves.
nice review. how well does the phone stay in the case though? i've been hesitant with snap on cases because i'm afraid the phone will come out of it.
are they grippy or are they still really smooth? I am planning on getting a case only because the phone is so smooth i know i'm going to drop it eventually.
It's a great looking case though!

Thanks! The phone is snug within the case. It hasn't come out of the phone. It fell earlier today, and the case popped off but i've had that happen with other cases though. When it fell, there was not damage to the phone. THANK GOD! LOL.

It is smooth but I feel like the perforated holes add grip while your hands are holding it. I used it all day yesterday and today so far and haven't slip because of it being too smooth.
I was hoping that the official vent case for the GS3 looked like the official case for the GS2 but they screwed the look up pretty badly. This one looks good but it needs that flashy silver plaque. Haha.
Although I felt the same way about the actual phone itself but the GS3 grew on me and is now the best looking phone ever. Maybe that official vent case will grow on me as well.
Had an elago s4 on my iPhone. Best case I ever had. Thanks for the review!

So I'm browsing through the electronics section at Wal-Mart looking for a wireless mouse and I happen to stumble upon a new case for our phone. At first I'm thinking, "Oh, so now we have an Otterbox Defender!" Then I look at the box and it's a Body Glove!
I looked online for this case, but cannot even find it on the Body Glove website. I took a few pictures of it. It looks pretty good. It's a little bulky, but not too much. Very sturdy. The case is three parts - two for the inner hard plastic and one for the outer rubber-like shell. It's much easier to install than the Otterbox cases, but really feels just as protective - for less as well (paid less than $40). I said "Defender-like", so yes it comes with a holster - and it's almost identical to the Defender holsters.
Have any of you guys seen this case in any local stores? It feels like a pretty good one.
I haven't seen one in stores yet...because i have not been looking for one. I will see if i can find it...
What's the product number and can you post pictures of box it came in

That's cool...
OK, here are photos of the case this thread is talking about. Not much info on the case itself, and I threw the box away pretty quickly.
I took pictures of the box in the store. Its like $38. They show up fine in my gallery, so not sure why tapatalk is turning them sideways.

Apparently this is very new. Military tested specs, and it feels and looks much better than the Otterbox. I'm using a Thunderbolt for work with the Otterbox Defender. They look similar from a distance, but the look and feel in your hands is not even close. They also had one for the GS3. After several days of use, this has to be the best looking, best feeling, sleekest (relatively speaking, of course) heavy duty shock resistant case I've owned (and I've owned quite a few over the years).

Got this today and just luving it. Had the Body Glove Diamond white case before and it was a good quality but the Tough Suit case is perfect. Not too thick, built like a tank, this is the new batmobile from Christian Bale's Batman Trilogy if the other thin and slick cases are the stealthy slick batmobiles from the past xD
How are the buttons? Are they nice and tactile or stiff and mushy? That's what's bugging me about the D30 Impact case. The buttons are way too stiff and mushy (and before someone says I should hit the gym, I'm no chump. I can press them just fine, it's just annoying).
Just ordered one of these http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-OEM-Whi...727&pid=100015&prg=1006&rk=1&sd=290717667572& I think I'll review it once I get it.

I'm using this case as well and it fits perfectly and adds the exact amount of weight and size to it. Only thing was I got ripped off haha I think I paid 20 something for it and saw it on amazon for less than half of that. But I needed a case asap.

My co-worker has one of these on his black T989, he's happy with it, however I don't believe he's ever really dropped it so no drop-test experience with it. Oh, and those cases were also being sold at the T-Mobile store, for $29.95 label, no discount for clearing stock.

they look pretty beefy compared to mine and when i dropped mine it was fine the only thing that looks off in the pictures is that it doesnt look completely snug.

say whaaaaat?! hahaha! I didnt even notice :silly:
Got my Body Glove Diamond case a week ago and reviewed it http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2004609
I also bought the black body glove case at Walmart and after 24 hours I'm loving it. The only gripe I had was the built in screen protector. I have zagg so I took a razor knife and cut it out. Couldn't ask for a better case.
I want one of these cases, but I can't find it anywhere.
Love my seidio active case and holster. Better than my old phones otterbox!
Just saying!
