Rearth Screen Protectors (8/9) - Nexus 7 (2013) Accessories

http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00E81PHF0/
Since the ASUS ones seem out of stock in most places, this one seems like a great deal. 3 for about $8. I used this for the 1st gen Nexus 7 and for my Nexus 4 and they work well.

thanks bought one 10.9x$ shipped to canada I hope quality is good

Even thought it says it's arriving in stock on 8/9, they appear to be shipping now. I just got a shipping notice from them.

Does anyone know if the previous rearth so had the cutouts? I just ordered the spigen so but I see that those had the cutouts.

Spigen typically doesn't have cut outs that I remember. But spigen is my fav. They are great and work well. I haven't tried the Rearth ones so can't say of their quality.

I don't have my old Nexus 7 anymore but I think the only cutout on the screen protector was for the front camera.

Tried it for my note 2.it's really nice and well fitted, but it definitely got scratched easily.it would get scratched by things that would not scratch your device it been naked.
If your the ocd type, you'll be replacing it about every month

Most screen protectors have a hardness of 3H. I think Gorilla Glass is about 7H.

Both are high quality TPU cases. Im using the Diztronic now. Have 3 Cruzerlites on order waiting to be shipped.The Cruzerlites have ridges on the side for grip and a cool android on the back. Diztronic is matte and gloss and offers good protection. May replace the diztronic after i get the cruzerlite...haven't seen anything like it.

Casemate Tough or Otterbox Commuter coupled with Carbon Fiber Ghost Armor & your choice of screen protector. I've spent Alot of money on cases/skins and this is the best combo for me. TPU'S are also a great value for light protection but my daily setup is the CM Tough & Carbon Fiber Ghost Armor with a Ghost Armor screen protector. These companies customer service is amongst the best in the industry.

The Diztronic TPU case is awesome. I just got mine today and it fits nicely, no shifting cutouts are perfect and adds a good visual appeal to the phone.
i exchanged a noname TPU case for a casemate barely there and much happier about it...phone weighs almost half and case is good enough for light protection.
besides, it's quite classy, TPU or casemate tough don't do justice to the Nexus...

+1 The Matte Black back is much nicer than I had expected to be, and the glossy rim around the front bezel is very generous, and the overall feel of the case is quite classy IMO.
Hey guys I wanted to buy a case mate pop case cuz I like how it looks but I remember hearing somewhere on here that they aren't selling them right now because they are making revisions on them. I seen a few on amazon still and I been tempted to buy one but does anyone know what these revisions are? Like is there something really wrong with the cases?

The current 1G version doesn't have the hole for the camera's microphone. The CM Toughcase and Barely There version does. I don't know why it wasn't included in the first iteration. Laziness, perhaps?
I'm using the OtterBox Defender Case. If you're not a fan of bulky cases it's probably not for you but, it's perfect for what I need it for.
Damn. To me it does seem like laziness lol I guess ill just wait for the revision model

Will amzer, or tempered glass screen protectors fit with siedio case?

Hey guys, since these are .4mm thick will that not work with a siedio surface case? will the top part not snap on because of this, or since its .4mm it will still work? They look so cool, would love to get one, if it would work

I have one coming from Glasszone, I'll let you know, as I have a surface case. Expect delivery between 9/24 and 9/29
The SGP one abould fit. It fit my Musubo Retro and my Otterbox Defender. I thought it wouldn't fit in neither case. I don't know about the others tho

I just read about both and liked what I had read about SGP... and actually, I bought the XGear Spectre and the Glasszone, they should both arrive about the same time and they're the same thickness. I don't know which one I will end up using, but I am never shy about buying "gadgets"... LOL
I think I'll hit each one with a hammer and which ever one survives, that's the one I will use.
I want the amzer. Might order it. Should fit hopefully

I spent some time forcing the Seidio Surface case over the GS3 with the .4mm thick screen protector on it. Although I was able to get it on, it doesn't fit very well at the seam where the top and bottom pieces meet on the back of the phone. It will have to do for now.

Screw it... I just took the xgear screen protector off and am back to a film protector. The thing was not responsive enough.

This is exactly what I've been looking for. I haven't been able to find a screen protector that fits with my diztronic tpu case. They always peel off at the corners.
I got my LGOG in November and after having no screen protector since then I still have 0 scratches. I'm just using a TPU case that is raised on the front so when I set it down or drop it the screen doesn't have any contact. I've even had the phone in pockets with change and keys on accident. With newer phones screen protectors aren't needed nearly as much as they used to be thanks to Corning Gorilla Glass and such.

Same here. I got a screen protector (zagg) immediately after purchasing mine in November. I've been too lazy to put it on. Still, no screen protector, just an otterbox case, and the screen is in perfect shape. I would like to rock my phone with no case, but the camera sticks out on the back.

Ghost & Feather Tempered Glass Screen Protectors Now Available From MIME

I've never purchased from these guys, but I've heard about them around here on XDA. I've been keeping an eye out for these glass protectors on Spigen's and MIME's websites and it seems MIME has finally made theirs available.
Ghost Glass - Thicker with curved edges.
Feather Glass - Very Thin (.15mm)
Just ordered one. I'll post an update when I get it.

I can't say anything about their protectors for the Nexus, but I will say that I have the Feather for my HTC One and it is by far the best screen protector I've ever purchased. It fits perfect and is hardly noticeable.
I ordered the feather and I have the Spigen neo hybrid case. Will post an update once installed.

My feather should be here any day now , your post definitely has me concerned,I wanted to know if you tried to get a replacement from mime?

I told them the truth, sent them pictures and they sent me a code for a replacement. I asked for them to give me a ghost instead (the ghost is also cheaper) and they did. I didn't ask for the difference in cost... Figured it was only fair.
They were quick and very pleasant as always.
I wouldn't worry about how MIME will treat you. They've always been excellent for me.

I would say not to worry that much. My experience installing the feather was not an issue, I also used my thumb to clear out air bubbles then a squeegee later and I didn't have any issues with cracking. I really love the feel with my bumper case.
Will never use plastic screen protector again my feather is perfect. Works perfectly with the official bumper case and the Ringke fusion. Applying it was super easy. Now my only problem is I have buy for all my other Nexus devices and the gf wants one for her S4.

$30 and it doesn't even say Nexus on it?!?!
Come on Google... It's basically a Ringke Slim or Spigen Ultra Fit for more than 3x the price. You could of at least slapped on the Nexus branding.

But...but it has the "Google" logo on it!! that must be worth $30 /s
I actually prefer the Google branding. I don't think I'll ever encounter another person in real life who will know what "Nexus" refers to. Anyways, these cases look to resemble the crappy Spigen/Ringke hard cases, and not the incredible sandpaper ones on eBay. We'll have to see who decides to drop $30 and put up a review.
Looks too similar to the lg thin cases. I'm surprised they'd even put these out.

Only thing is that the LG Hardshell protects more, the top is not covered at all with this case and the bottom is also less covered. I don't understand why they try to sell this product for more money with less protection/functionality. Must be a mistake

To me, these cases appear to be more flexible than the more rigid Ringke cases for example, judging by what I see in the video posted above.

I bought the older black Google Nexus 5 OEM case with the "Nexus" logo on the back. I got it on eBay for last week for like $14.00, but it kinda sucks. I shouldn't say it sucks, but definitely not my style of case. I prefer as minimal as possible, where this case has much more bulk and a thicker lip that goes over the glass. Another thing I don't like is the volume & power buttons are covered. They aren't too hard to press, but it's different for sure. I knew I should have bought the LG minimal case. I really liked the pictures and reviews. I got caught up in wanting the "Nexus" logo on the back. I was blinded!
