colored ones are on sale :victory:
Why would anyone buy the bumper or any case from them, their products are terrible and can't even handle being on the device they are designed for.
After picking up a bumper for the N4 and getting a replacement that also self destructed I'll be going for a s-curve TPU case that I have used since my nexus s days.
Poetic makes great case and their customer service is good as well. They rectify issues if come up. I would not hesitate to purchase from them. There is not many company out there like this, who actually care and revise their cases. It happened on my Revolution Nexus 7 2nd Gen Screen protector, they replaced it two weeks after my purchase.
Plus, their Bumpers look brilliant on my Nexus 4.
No combined shipping? .
I'm happy with the n4 bumper I have from them. Granted it was the third one they sent me before finding one that didn't fall a part right away.

Lol they are making there money on the shipping. You can't sell the cases at a penny a piece and expect them to combine shipping. Though it would had made more since to just sell the cases at 5 bucks each with free shipping

Will the audio jack be wide enough to allow a 1/8inch audio jack? I have the m50 headphones with the oversized jack.
Any pictures of these? I think I'll replace my neo-hybrid. After 2 weeks of use i just realized they're too fat.

Agreed on that Neo Hybrid. It's beautiful, but way too big. I've switched to my Supcase Unicorn Beetle case. It's a good fit in the hand, but the power button is so hard to press. It's nearly impossible to screen shot with this case. Shopping around for something else. Had my eye on the Poetic bumper. Wish they'd have black instead of gray for the secondary color, though.

I ordered the Poetic Palette case. I like slimmer, hardshell cases and the Palette seems to wrap around the top and bottom better than most hardshell options. I've also never had a sandpaper case before and I've good things.
I'll post a review on Monday when I get it!

Do they take payment now or in the 1-2 weeks it's expected to ship? Gonna work out to around £25 to get one to the UK but it's definitely tempting. I'm not usually one to use cases but this looks very low-profile. I hope it fits in the car dock. Very much doubt it though.

No by the looks of pics that I've seen, the phone can only fit in the dock with no case. That's the only reason why I'm probably not going to get a case for this phone as I intend to use the dock on a regular basis.

I wonder if this is prone to turning yellow like most clear cases. Just a heads up that the crystal clear is a fingerprint magnet whereas the soft clear isn't :good:

Case looks nice. Looks like they have two choices. Frost/Soft and Hard/Clear. Almost tempted to get both.
I already have 4 cases now before the phone The Rock Thin Case in Silver and White and the Nillkin in Black and White.
This one looks even thinner. Have the case early helped me get a real feel for the phones dimensions. I really like the size of it.
I would like to have a very very thin aluminum case with the same aluminum finish. So it looks like the back of the phone. That way I can scratch it and not feel bad and keep the same look.
I think they should check their description box. They still have iPhone 5 instead of HTC.
Spigen cases are beautiful. I have an ultra capsule (soft rubber case- i dont think it is tpu) on my SGS2 which works wonderfully. The only problems i have with this case are:
a) no front lip which leaves the screen/screen protector prone to scratches when face down.
b) its a hard case which means no impact absorption
My brother had this case on his HTC One X, and when it fell on its side, the screen/digitizer cracked straight from where the charging port is (on the side for the one x) as it is an exposed area. SGP steinheil screen protectors have unmatched quality. I have had them on 5 android phones throughout my family, but i think ill be going for a cruzerlite tpu case because of their impact absorption, and just getting the steinheil protectors. I look forward to AFN's review to see if anything has changed with this particular case, but my hopes arent high. Sadly, Spigen informed me that they have no plans for an ultra capsule for the HTC One.
Just my thoughts...

Just ordered mine along with the Poetic Atmosphere.
$29 for cases, $31 for postage.
Seems legit
Figured that I wouldnt be happy with any other case though after seeing it so may as well just bend over.

They pushed back the date on Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00C3LQEWW

Here is my review of the Cuzerlite Experience Cover and Androidified A2 cover for the Nexus 7 FHD (2013)
I have a wood skin on my Nexus 7 from stickerboy . net and it does not interfere with the Cruzerlite cases.
The Androidified A2
The A2 for the nexus is exactly what we have come to expect from Cruzerlite a great TPU case at a great price. The A2 sells for $17.95 and is available in 11 colors. The Case fits the nexus like a glove all the port and buttons are easily to use. I like the different finished on the case the Android is a soft touch finish and surrounding it is glossy. The A2 adds some good grip to the sides of the Nexus and In my testing I did not have any problems using different headphones or charging cables. I have a inductive charging plate and the cover does not interfere with the inductive charging feature of the nexus 7.

The Experience Cover
The Exp. is the perfect case for the stock android user. If you like the icons used by a stock android ROM then this case is perfect for you. The cover has a nice soft touch finish accept for the icon they are transparent. I like the added grip to the Nexus 7 and the fact that the case is very thin a light. In my testing I did not have any problems using different headphones or charging cables. I have a inductive charging plate and the cover does not interfere with the inductive charging feature of the nexus 7.
I just received the new Circuit Cover and is awesome!!
Here are some photos of the cover installed on my Nexus 7
Very nice. Which one would you prefer if you wanted something more matte? Also how long did it take for yours to arrive?

I think all the preorders got something extra in there shipmnet.
I ordered one of the SLine ones for $2 on Amazon. It "shipped" yesterday but with no tracking and is not due to arrive for almost a month. I'm guessing it's because it's a preorder and they don't have them in yet, but it would have been nice to know that. Not to mention now that they've marked it as shipped (though I highly doubt it was) I can't cancel the order.

on amazon, cruzerlite's delivery estimate is around 17-28 days.. is that accurate or can we get it way sooner than that? im hesitating on ordering one because of shipping time.. any reply would be greatly appreciated.
Been using a cheap S-line case from eBay but I don't like the mix of matte and gloss back and the grip ridges. Didn't care much for the cruzerlite cases because I wanted a full matte back (akin to Diztronic cases) and the price was a little offsetting. Shopped around on eBay and found this one and it looks nice. glossy edges (eh) but the back is full matte which I appreciate. I'll have some more pics up once I get the case hopefully by the end of the week.

For $5, how can you lose?
Thanks for the heads up, definitely let us know how it is when you get it. The cruzerlite sline case is junk so I'm looking for a good cheap TPU case again.
Just ordered one off Amazon as well. Thanks for posting this!
Came in a lot faster than I thought, first impressions - WOW!!! For $4.95, this is hella good.
The fit is very tight and snug; the flat matte on the back mimics the soft touch of the naked n7, if you've used any diztronic case before that's how it pretty much feels. Cutouts are accurate and buttons are very easy to press, the glossy edges help with the grip. The case also is thin enough, overall the best TPU case I've seen and tried, this will be my primary case here on out. Also first phone/tablet accessory I've bought that comes in a paper bag haha.
Thanks for the review. Finally a case that doesn't have some sort of design on the back and doesn't look all cheap and glossy. Wish they made a white one but the black one in your pics looks pretty good.
Good looking out on this case. I couldn't press the "buy it now" button fast enough.
Instant buy.. thanks bro

I recently picked up a blue 2 tone (matte/gloss) case and really like it. I got it for $8.00 on ebay with a free screen protector, earbuds and free shipping.
Got mine yesterday. Fantastico. Really love it. Makes the tablet easier to hold and by having the ridge around the border gives you something to hold on to.

Received mine in the mail the other day. Only complaint is the flimsy packaging, but this is more of a USPS issues since ( I believe) the delivery person seemed to have laid some heavy packages on my package. The end result upon delivery is I have a heavy bend/crease in the case that wont go away and wont allow the case to fit over the tablet properly. I contacted the company and they are shipping a new replacement at no cost. Great case, and great customer service.
Does the case make the power and volume buttons any harder to press?
I saw them on EBay but I prefer the hard plastic snapon ones. Mine should be here anytime now.

Have to agree, got mine on saturday and it is great. The fit is perfect, it is very slim on the rear, and the extra lip on the borders makes it much easier to hold the nexus.

Shame about the shipping cost (at least to my country it's rather expensive (over twice the price of the cover itself)) so ordered a Mumbi cover. Unfortunately with an "X" on the back but the majority is matte and it grips reasonably well.
Finally able to remove the protective plastic from the tablet, after owning it for a week. Yes, I know, OCD, but I like my stuff to be neat :angel:

To be honest, it was such a terrible experince with Nexus 4 bumper cases.... They again started selling the bumper cases at very competitive prices, but maann.. that was such a bad peeling experience.
I remember i changed thru amazon at least 4 times.. hope they are doing better job right now.
However, I am still considering buying poetic or not for N5, but to be honest, besides that peeling problem, I have seen way better case designs so far on the forum. This is like the same as the last year N4's exact design.
With couple more bux, i might go for a better looking cases
Poetic makes cheap crap. I have their case on my Nexus 7 and after less than a year of low use it is cracking and falling apart. Absolute junk and will not be buying any Poetic products ever again.
There is a reason these things are less than $5 shipped...

I'd have to agree. I had a terribly time with their "Poetic Atmosphere Case for Google Nexus 4". The rubber peeled away from the plastic on two of their cases, and had to fight them for a refund. Check out the reviews:

Perhaps there has been a design improvement with this particular case, but I'd stay away.

Thanks, I decided to go with the Spigen Ultra Hybrid though.
I agree with the above... The nexus4 poetic bumpers were terrible quality... Tho the only bumpers apart from the official lg ones out there... And tho they did give good customer service, they would take forever to actually send out the replacement cases...
I think The main reason why the case sold alot on the N4 was due to the glass back easily cracking... People wanted minimal protection while having the awesome 3D design on the back still showing... Since the N5 no longer has that shatter prone glass back, I think lots will go nude this time around... I know I will...

Still waiting on mine...it's been a while! Almost forgot about this...
I'm curious about these as well; I kind of wanted one of the official ones, but $35 is just a bit too pricey for a plain case (to me). Avidly awaiting a review.
I have ordered a yellow and a grey one. Last week before this thread. I thought it was worth a try for the price anyways. Based in the UK so will provide photos when received.

How is the lettering on these? Is it just stamped onto the case or is it embossed like the official? Wish I would have held out on the official. The price is nice and that blue is sick.

These can be found on Ebay from reputable sellers for $15 with free shipping. Being able to use paypal is a huge advantage with something like this.

I think is everything same, like the official bumper.
I don't know exactly, how the lettering made, but if I touch, definitely can feel, so not just stamping, feels like fused together.

The black one, yes maybe, because this got one more layer on the black TPU, but the another one I think can't peel, because do not have another layer on the TPU. But the play store version of black also peels. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=48060634&postcount=1

Hmm should i buy the black version? I mean do all black versions peel off?

I'm not positive but I thought I read somewhere that Google made revisions to the official bumper because of the peeling.

bought one of those. Will report back later.
I know you can get them from china on ebay for a few dollars cheaper, but I got lazy and didn't want to wait
very interested in these. i just want a basic black bumper with the nexus logo but havent gotten one because of the peeling and high price. did the fix the peeling and quality control issues or do they still happen? if these are quality i will definitely grab one. would these work with a nillkin tempered glass screen protector?

Did you get yours yet? I live in the UK too, how long did shipping take?

I just received my yellow one today. I ordered the grey one 2 days after so that one hasn't arrived. It took about 7 business days for me since I ordered it last Friday. I almost got my nilkin glass screen protector. Must say it feels awesome.
Built quality seems alright. But I can't compare with the official since I haven't owned one before but for the price I paid seems good to me.

I have the official black bumper bought from the play store and I can tell you that the lettering is not embossed it is flush with the case, I would say that it is printed on.
I have not had any quality issues with my official black bumper, I have not yet experienced any peeling or separating whatsoever and I do like it.
I have ordered a red clone bumper from Ebay. Really fancy a red one but just can't stomach paying £31 delivered for the official one, that is such a rip off!!! £6 for delivery -robbing bastards!!
When I get it I can compare with my official black one for things like weight, dimensions, fit, button feel etc. Only thing I won't be able to compare is the colour.
Will report back when I have it.
