White cases - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

I'm looking for an all white case that covers the bezel on the front. The back could be all white or gray like the Neo hybrid (I think). The only case that seems to be like this, is the sgp ultra capsule, but all reviewers complain of the glitter being gay. Is it really that gay? Is there any other good white cases I don't know about?

Its only as gay as you are uncomfortable with yourself.
For example...If you're really uncomfortable with yourself, then it is really gay.
If you don't give a ****e about glitter (and realize that plenty of DUDE things have glitter), then its not gay at all.
Don't be a homophobe and just rock whatever case you like.

I picked this one up off ebay - http://www.ebay.com/itm/18087166803...X:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649#ht_1577wt_1163
I like it a lot actually. Also have a black diztronic rev3 and in comparison it fits just as well.

Agree on the gay thing by ficklecycler. I have a white Mercury case and not at all conscious about the pearl effect. I even think it gives it a bit of character.

I had a Black case that had glitter in it. I didn't much care for it... but after I swapped out to a cheaper Diztronic Rev 3 case that didn't have the glitter... then it felt like cheaper materials.
The glitter effect wasn't really evident but gave it a little sparkle. Kinda like a good paint job on a car... where dudes rock glitter and colored flakes all the time.
It ain't like your rocking rainbows. It just has a high quality to it.
However I'm using a Ringke Slim, which their white case is solid white. I'm using the Metallic version because it matches the original case of the GN perfectly and thus it appears to not even have a case on it.

OK I think I'm going to get the ultra capsule then. I usually don't care about things being gay but I'm only sixteen I'm buying this with my own money. Its funny I've been saving up for months for the nexus(when it was 700$) the minute I saw it on the play store for 400 I bought it. I have like 40 dollars remaining. When you buy stuff with your own money you really value it lol, that's why I care about the case being gay.
Tl;dr - I'll get the ultra capsule. I only care because I value my phone.

If I were you I'd care more about the way you're tossing gay around. You do realize that's offensive, right?

He definitely could have used better diction, but we know he wasn't trying to be offensive or homophobic by using that word. We shouldn't be too overly sensitive. We got the general idea of what he's asking, but yes he should have used better word usage.
Anyways, to the OP, look around eBay and amazon. You'll find plenty of white cases. Try Cruzer Lite. They have an all white case that you're looking for. Good luck.

right. it doesn't offend you so if it offends someone else they take things too seriously.
if he had been asking about black cases and tossing the word "******" around, would that be offensive? now tell me the difference.

****** is a more offensive word, by far! Tossing the word gay around is no big deal to many American people. On American culture is usually used to describe something as either being lame or homosexual.
Nothing to get you knickers in a twist over. The episode of south park about the word fag is hilarious!

Completely different. I won't even type the n word; I would put it on a whole other level than "gay". If anyone forgot, gay means happy in the dictionary. It has another meaning. The n word doesn't exactly.

There is no such thing as "offensive" words. It's the context that matters.

Looking at their site, I must say, their cases look to be pretty well designed, quote stylish, but pretty expensive.
Fake in my opinion.
Still a good looking case imo
Where can you buy those? I like the look of it a lot!

I wonder if the case uses D30 in it. If it does, it explains how it is able to withstand the fall.

Its still got a screen protector on.. Otherwise when it fell it opened up n would have scratched the screen to bits..

Doesn't look fake to me. SGS2 isn't poorly built you know.

[Q] Is the White E4GT thicker & heavier than the Black??

I'm getting my White Epic tomorrow, but I've been reading some comments on youtube about it, and it seems to be thicker and heavier according to some, anyone know anything about this?
I'll be able to deny or confirm this when I get mine tomorrow! My stepdad already has a Black Epic.
Well it's listed at 130 grams which equals 4.58561 oz, the black specs at 4.6 oz.
but I think the black one is just rounded up.
One also has to remember that visually lighter colors appear bigger so that may account for peoples perception of weight.
It probably has a smaller penis than the black one.

Sorry bro didn't mean to offend you in any way. Was not insulting you or your taste. It was my personal opinion of the case. The back of the case looks very unpleasant and uncomfortable in pocket. I do really appreciate the fact you purchased a product, took pictures of it, and gave your opinion of it for the community. It really does help with accessories selction. I'm going to do the same when I buy a case for mine.

Whoa. That's a hard case to swallow. Although I do have a case on my GS2, I do so reluctantly. A big part of the purchase of any of my phones are the looks. This case looks a bit overbearing for my tastes although I'm sure gives great protection.

I have to agree here. I looked at the White S3, and just thought that it looked too plain. I mean yea... there's nothing special about giving a brushed aluminium look to plastic, but at least it's an added bit of depth. Didn't really want such a smexy phone to look like... uuh... another popular white phone that's not nearly as smexy.

It's even worse that they're claiming that the ICON'S infringed on their patents. Going by their actual patent information in that document, and looking at the side by side's later on... wtf are they on? Well, we could easily say that the white phone on a green background is NOT at a 45-degree angle. And most of the others don't look remotely similar. I mean... thinking that Samsung's smiley in a speech box looks similar to Apple's own speech bubble? The Settings icon... what... because it has a gear in it? And WTF are they on with the photo gallery icon? NOT EVEN CLOSE!
Apple just seems to have the patent office in their pockets, as well as the judges they use for this sh*t, cause they are granted so many patents for the most ridiculous stuff it's unrealistic.

iPhones = sell 20 million devices (probably a lot more, actually) easily, and a metric frakton of Otterboxes.
Nexus = sell a rather paltry number, no big sales except right when it first becomes available, no long term ecosphere behind it even in spite of it being a solid device, etc.
I mean really, go to any store, anywhere - Best Buy, Fry's, MicroCenter, Sears, hell even a 7-11 - and you'll find stuff for the iPhones but you won't find diddly Jack Squat for anything else. It's sad that this is how the world operates but, that's how the world operates.

Nothing has really changed so far.
OtterBox has positioned themselves as a "premium smartphone case maker" and for their ridiculously overpriced products, they're exactly where they want to be.

Yeah, Spigen seems like the next best thing, but I'm seeing a lot of reviews on Amazon about misalignment over the power button. Spigen said they are aware of the issue and a fix is in the works, but it sounds like the "bad" ones are still in stock. Returns are a PITA.

Well, I do. I love it (note 2) when my atv/ sxs group go riding for ~100 miles in a day. Yea it may not be water proof (but it sure helps with the water splashes) but the dust protection for the dirt roads and woods we ride, it offers GREAT protection. So, what may not work for you, works great for others.

I still can't believe they made an Otterbox for the HTC Vivid and not the Nexus 5. I know a bunch of people with the N5 and have not met a single person who also owned the HTC Vivid during my 2 years with the device.
I had a Commuter for my HTC One (2 actually) and I loved it. I'm using a Cruzerlite TPU case now and it is also really nice. (Not to mention $13 shipped). Sad that we really don't have quality options yet for this phone
I doubt the CS knows for sure. Just like CS at pretty much all companies. They usually don't know anything but what is on their trouble shooting flow chart in front of them.
