Cruzerlite are trying to screw people over with their new Spi-force case. They are a cheap generic case that they are repackaging and reselling. You can get the case for $2.79 shipped on eBay. Essentially Cruzerlite are showing you what they are willing to sluff off on you at a 450+% mark up. Please do not support this company, It shows what they think of their paying customers when they will blatantly take your money like this.
The reason I take issue with Cruzerlite is because they are a well known quality case maker and now they are pawning this case of on you. And while it may have decent build quality, you are still being gouged.
Ebay $2.79 http://www.ebay.com/itm/Armor-Dual-...Cell_Phone_PDA_Cases&var=&hash=item51b5c3c3f7
Cruzerlite $13 http://www.cruzerlite.com/cases/lg/nexus-5/cruzerlite-spi-force-case-for-nexus-5
Find a difference.....
Here are others to show that this is just some generic make that people are reselling as their own. NOT CRUZERLITE'S

Pretty much you are paying for the brand and it's guarantees. Those China cases are knockoffs

I received my cruzerlite experience car a few days ago and it's gorgeous slim and very week designed. I literally can't find anything to complain about. And it's cheaper than they brands like Spigen which not only fail to actually protect your phone when it drops but ate more expensive and defective. Sure generic non brand cases are cheaper, but this had always been the case. I believe that cruzerlite had been the only car maker for nexus 5 to release a skin and beautiful and non defective case. No need to complain just but a generic one than a brand name one...

The eBay ones are not knock offs. It is a generic make that has been branded by many major makers. Search the forums here and you will find this case made by many names. The Cruzerlite one is the same make and origin. They are identical so you are just paying for the Cruzerlite name which is not even on the case..

Thanks for looking out for our wallets but shame on whoever would buy this hidious case. Sort of defeats the purpose of the Nexus 5's slim design

I can almost guarantee these cases are not the same. I've ordered cases from China and usually they use cheaper and thinner materials and the edges are rugged. You are paying 4x more but you get better quality, warranty, and faster shipping.

I have ordered cases from China too and everywhere else both OEM and knock off. I know a thing or 2 (or 67) about them. These are identical and that is why a minimum of 6 different case makers/sellers have branded them as their own without being sued..

Reminds me a lot of the Nillkin case I have for my Xperia S. I might have to order it. Though I really like the feel of the ion without any case. Such a nice phone and great build.

Not really on par with the best Otterbox but it seems like it'll protect my phone pretty well. The plastic is thick and hard *laughs out of immaturity*. I have a thing for breaking my screens and the case has a lip around the front of the phone so I'm not too worried about the screen on this phone.

Any original Spigen - as it appears this one - is a steal when around $25 or less
It was a good price, as I paid £19.99 for mine, although with the button problems so sent it back. Went and bought a fake one for less than half that from China. Meant to not have the same button problems.

Who cares what people buy. If you can afford to buy the authentic then good for you. There are people on these forums that actually want to save money like me and I couldn't care less if my money went to china if I could get "Fake" products for half the price, and you have no right to call people horrible for that.

Amazon and newegg are my go to places to shop online.
Anyway regarding the case I don't think it's overrated. It's really nice and has a unique aggressive design. It has a nice wow factor. When people see it for the first time they almost fall in love with it.
In terms of protection: if there is a bar with no protection, mid level protection and maximum protection, this case would be in mid level.
I recommend it to those ppl who don't drop their phone's too often. It doesn't add much bulk at all and still looks sleek and awesome.
If you tend to drop your phone a lot then move to the otterbox/ballistic level of cases.

Didn't know how it would be as the price is very good. But I must say it is very good. Very solid on the phone and feels just like a real Otterbox. Even has the Otter logo on the back of the case and on the holster. Very happy with this purchase. Spending $12 on a case that is very close to the ones that list for $40+ is a deal in my book any day!
It ships from Hong Kong so it will take a few days. Mine arrived very quickly even through the holidays. About 9 days which is very good.

How's the power and volume button stiffness? Is it super hard to press or is it much easier to press than the real one?
can you post some pics of it on your phone?
I will try and get some pics up soon. The case feels really firm. The Plastic does not give any and the buttons are hard, in a good way. They are firm to when you push them they respond. It is really hard to tell this is a knock off. Heck, the holster is just like the otter box kind. No doubt it will hold up if dropped.

Ok ikn what you all do with your phones but ive been using otterbox since tye original htc evo... i work in retail as a stock clerk... im always loading akd unloading trucks , cutting opening boxes amd packages , in dusty areas ( sometimes ) ive dropped my otterbox several times and never cracked or broke never got anything in it ... also you can get defender cases for about $20 on amazon with tax and shipping maybe $25. Thats half of retail... same with the commuter case runs about $17 on amazon.... also otterbox has a great warranty I had one issue on my evo of the rubber scratching out ... contacted otter box not only did they send me a whole new case but also sent me 2 new rubber pieces so the $12 you spent $10 more dollars you can get a real otter box and have a great warranty.... btw I have friends that have that case and the rubber will stratch out fast and will have to buy another case within 4 months or so.... btw picture is showing how many otter boxes I have gotten for one phone and how easy it is to replace.

I am being completely serious when I tell you that I enjoyed the message you sent me (attached here). I thought it was quite funny. I would tell you that I think you are projecting but it occurred to me that you'd still have no idea what I was referring to. :good:

Nice buy. I Would never spend retail for these otterbox cases. Theyre Pure crap imo. They dropped the ball on the gs3 version

Amen to that. I've used Otterbox for years on all my devices. They Def got crappy on the GS3 version. This looks decent for the price tho

I've seen a bunch of threads regarding that the Lifeproof cases aren't out yet... But on eBay there are a few cases for sale. I'm guessing these are fake but the pictures look pretty legit. Any experience with these? I'm still new so I can't post links but if you type in "S3 Lifeproof" on eBay it should pop up.
Their fake.

I was about to start a thread and remembered there already was one. So since this thread I've noticed a large increase in the number of fake lifeproof's, I'm assuming some company in china got the specs and started making replicas. Looks like the prices are in the $40 to $50 range, so who's going to be the guinea pig and buy one? Part of me wants to try it since the real lifeproof cases cost $80, but another part of me thinks that its stupid to spend $50 on something that could be complete crap. Especially if it ships from china or hong kong, if I don't like it I'd have to pay the shipping all the way back. Plus I'd have to wait 3 weeks just to get it and possibly another 3 weeks to get the refund........
Anybody want to sponsor me? I'll put a big pictorial and detailed review?:laugh:
LifeProof
I'll be ordering one from a US Seller for a slightly higher markup. I can post a video review on Youtube, and here as well. I'll get it some time next week, as I'll probably order it with my birthday money or when my paycheck comes in. And hey, if you want to push $5 towards the cause, I wouldn't be opposed They look exactly like the iPhone version, even down to the packaging and colors available. one seller even mentioned that they aren't LifeProof branded, but had a 1 month return/refund/warrenty. In addition, Paypal and my bank offer a certain amount of time to make sure a product actually works (3 or 6 months, I think). I'm game for giving it a shot!
I imagine that the install would be the same as for an iPhone... and I'd want to check the seals BEFORE installing my phone... that'd be really sad.
Found it but it's not on lifeproof website.

Right, that's the whole point of this entire thread. These are FAKE or replicas or whatever you want to call them, that's why this thread got started. That's why they only cost $40 to $50 dollars. That's why some of them are from CHINA. I think I'll probably end up buying one of these once I find a white one that's being sold here in the US. I know they all are probably being made in the same place in Hong Kong or somewhere but I don't see any reason to order something and wait for a month for it to get here.

Being that lifeproof has yet to release the case, what's the alternative? If you need protection a fake case is better than nothing.

I love my water proof otterbox armor series . It's bulky compaired to the lifeproof that doesnt exist yet, but feels like it'll take on anything.

I didn't even know this one existed. I'll have to look into it. I take it you're happy with the case? Is touch sensitivity okay? I had the OBEX for a week and hated it. I like to five and would like to have something I can take on the boat with me that I don't have to worry about getting banned around or splashed. I have no intentions of actually taking it into the water.

So who's gonna be the guinea pig and take one of the "life proof" cases swimming? Lol
