any good looking wallet case w/credit card slot? - Nexus 5 Accessories

purchased a Ringke wallet case:
http://www.amazon.ca/DELIGHT®-Ultim...74299&sr=8-2&keywords="nexus+5"+"wallet"+case
however I don't really like the design.
the boxwave case:
http://www.amazon.ca/BoxWave-Classi...4364&sr=8-17&keywords="nexus+5"+"wallet"+case
is nice but it's too pricey.
is there any good looking wallet case (has to have at least 1 credit card slot) that is < $20?
thanks in advance.

Wallet cases do tend to be kind of fugly when it comes to design. The Seidio Ledger is the best looking wallet style case I have seen, but I think it busts your budget.

The Poetic Slimbook looks kind of nice. Judging from the cases I've owned in the past, their quality is very good, too.

Yes the Ledger is the best "wallet" case out there (I would hold off for a while, since they have an issue with the soft touch surface rubbing off). The second to that would be the Cruzerlite ones, which are within your budget I think.

I've had 3 so far first two one expensive one was cheap and had weird issues, like no cut out for the power button made it a hastle.
This one is under $10 been holding up for over a month w/ no sign of wear and has the auto on/off feature that works great.

Cases finally showing up on eBay

I've been searching every couple days since the phone was released only to find the shields, glare protectors, and skins... Finally they have the low cost cases that many users have come to love...
Judging by the looks on some, I'm not saying they are grade A, but having bought some for past phones, they are comparable to some of the $30 cases sold at some retailers
Example: cgi.ebay.com/Red-Hard-Snap-Case-Samsung-Captivate-AT-T-/270618346984?pt=PDA_Accessories {Sorry can't post links}
This is the same case (and seller) I have except mine is black. It looks, works, and feels great... Though it is a little hard to take off once it's on.

whats that case material called thats like not the rubbery silicone, but not a hard case? Its like a soft plastic that doesn't have a rubber texture.

if the material you're describing is what I'm imagining (and as counter-intuitive as it sounds) it's rubberized crystal cases. (like the one in the first link)
it doesn't feel "rubbery", it feels smooth and soft-textured. nothing at all like the rubber you'd find on a shoe or tire.

I believe you are thinking of TPU (Thermoplastic polyurethanes)? It's generally a material that is flexible but very smooth, and usually translucent.
Unfortunately I don't think there are any TPU cases yet for Captivate, but I think they are coming (they have them for the standard Galaxy S / Vibrant), but that's what I am waiting for as well.

Per Wikipedia, they have several trade names (but seems mostly from Pharma)
ELASTOLLAN (BASF & Elastogran)
PEARLTHANE (Merquinsa)
DESMOPAN (Bayer)
PELLETHANE (Dow Chemical) Sold to Lubrizol.
ESTANE (Lubrizol)
IROGRAN (Huntsman)
But in terms of cases, the only trade name I know of is that I believe Amzer calls their line of TPU cases "Luxe." Other places usually refer to the cases either as TPU or "Flexi Skin."
I'm personally waiting on the "Luxe" line from Amzer to be released at the end of the month for the Captivate.
http://www.amzer.com/Amzer-Luxe-Argyle-Skin-Case-Smoke-Grey-P88849.htm
I got the black version of this case and I'd say it's by far more attractive and more protective than the overpriced crap they have at the AT&T store.
I attached some pictures. Yeah, I rigged up a cradle for the phone out of some large zip-ties, and I must say, it works great. Don't be dissin'!
Yep, that's exactly the same one I have. The one thing I would say to notice about this is, that without a screen protector, and if you keep it in your pocket... this case just seems to be a "force dirt to collect in certain places" device. (Keep it in your pocket for a day or two and then take it off and see how much dirt is chilling out under your case)

Thats the one I want as well. Mainly cuz its got some cushion like the silicone ones but doesn't stick in your pocket like the silicone ones...
Only problem I have with it is the pattern on it. Its a nice pattern, but coming from the world of bberry, its been done and over done. I feel it might look a little busy with the translucency/being able to see all the original case detail under it.
any private messages with links to a case would be much appreciated. My captivate is due to touchdown on Monday.
Amzer Luxe style gel cases are available now at fommy dot com.
I originally owned the Body Glove, but was somewhat disappointed while testing GPS fixes to learn that it actually reduced GPS reception. I'm hoping the translucent/non-black Luxe will fit the bill.

What Are Your Preferred Accessories for Your Phone?

The second most important thing, (after the phone of course) when buying a phone, to me is accessories! I love 'em and they definitely influence my decision on which phone I'm gonna purchase. I made this thread for people who share a similar interest like me to their accessories. So, share your personal favorite accessory brands/items for your phones! This could also help out some unfortunate people having a hard time deciding between accessories.
Mine Are....
• Screen Protector
Brand- Steinheil: Their screen protectors are the best out their, although pricey ($13.99 for clear & olephobic, $16 for fine), they offer 3 options (oleophobic, ultra clear & ultra fine). My favorite is the ultra clear
• Cases
Brands- Case-Mate, Otterbox, Speck, Incipio
Of the 4, case-mate is probably the cheapest if you don't posses an iPhone. Their cases, to me, kinda imitate the others cases in a way but with their own twist. They have a lot of creative designs as well. I love all their silicone cases. Vroom series being my favorite. Otterbox is my favorite of the 4. They have the best protective cases out on the market (Their also is Trident. I hear Trident cases are good but they look bulky/ugly & i've never owned one). The defender is the most protective which is a hard polycarbonate outer shell which a silicone case wraps around. Then, you have Speck. I love their pixel skins which are really thick silicone cases with a checkerboard pattern engraved throughout the case. I also love their Candy shell's which are hard colorful glossy cases with a soft silicone layer on the inner part. Then there is Incipio, with their wild and thick, gaudy Dermashot cases which are all silicone. I prefer their extremely thin low profile Feather cases to case-mates Barely Their. I think their much higher quality and fit better.
Well, there you have it. Anyone else care to share?
I think Clarivue makes the best screen protectors

I have tried theirs, and they are really good. But, I think the Steinheil ones have a better texture and are a little more "not there" feeling.
All I got is a bodyglove case and a car charger. Thats all my local AT&T store has for now.

I'm using the Incipio Feather case (RadioShack) which I don't mind, but I would like to get an Otterbox Commuter. I only use anti-glare screen protectors which AT&T carries for the Atrix. I also use a Motorola external battery pack that I picked up at a Verizon store. Also, Verizon carries a Droid X Extended Battery (Motorola BH6X) which just happens to be the same one that the Atrix uses, so I have a spare battery as well.

Yeah, just google "Droid X Extended Battery" or "Motorola BH6X" and you should find it cheaper online. Just make sure it is the BH6X model number.
If you do get it from Verizon, it will be the one that comes with an extra back plate for the Droid X.

It's the same, exact battery. Same model number and size (1880/1930mAh)
I just bought the Otterbox Impact for my Atrix.
It's the first case I've ever bought for a phone. I wanted something that would protect it in case the phone slipped out of my hand. It came with a screen protector and I'm not too critical about the quality of those since I haven't used it for that long, so it's fine for now.

Keep in mind that many of these posts are eBay and may expire or get re-listed. The same items may be available from Amazon or other sources. Happy searching!
During your personal search for accessories, it may be helpful to search for either i9295 or i537. Some accessories are listed only as one or the other.
Keep in mind that some of these eBay listings will eventually end. The seller may relist them or as with most eBay cases you can probably find something similar if not the same from a different seller on eBay or Amazon

I don't think that Chinese case is a wise choice for the Active.
I'm just talking out my ass here but I don't think the Active has the ability to do the "S-View" thing because of the display technology.

Despite the hype and marketing. If you read the description it is not actually shock proof. Therefore, to answer your question, you would put a case on "this" phone for the same reason(s) you would put a case on any phone. hth

Thanks for posting. I plan on putting a screen protector on. I don't know how water may effect it, but I doing anything different with this phone than any other phone. I'm mainly getting this for the dust/dirt that sometimes gets on it from my gear. And for the rare possibility of water.

I don't like that particular case at all. I don't think it will sell very well.

i-Blason SoftGel Flexible TPU Case
i ordered the diztronic case from amazon for now. one thing i like about amazon is their return policy; if i don't like it i can return it (of course in good condition).

That looks like a good choice. One thing to possibly note is that this item is shipped by and sold by diztronic so it may have a different policy on returns.

true, but I've purchased from Diztronic via Amazon and returned without issue (so far). :good:

A good point. I was initially considering this: http://www.amazon.com/Silicone-Protector-Accessories-Accessory-InventCase®/dp/B00DCWHKRY/
But, the seller reviews aren't as good as I'd like.

Diztronic was who I got a case for my Galaxy Note, I've used it ever since. It was one of like 5 cases I got for the phone, all the rest sucked.

Best Case for Samsung Galaxy Note 3 (Wallet type case with card slots)?

Any sudjestions?
Best Case for Samsung Galaxy Note 3 (Wallet type case with card slots)?
Hard to say what is a best since it could be a matter of personal preference, but you can get a lot of choices here: http://www.tvc-mall.com/search?cid=&q=note+3+wallet
If I'm looking for no-brand name accessories, I typically deal with either tvc-mall.com for cases or dx.com for other gadgets.

This seems to be nice looking.

I like texture of this case.
I have not seen any brand cases where they have those card slots and have nice texture.
Many cases looks so wierd and poor quality.

Looks very similar to one of the S4 cases I tested/reviewed from case-parts.com (it's the same company as tvc-mall.com), here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2319150 - scroll down to white wallet case. The texture and built quality was very good.

this looks very proper and elegant, thanks :good:
Taking a shot with this. Exactly the type and style I was looking for. Almost abnormally high number of 5 star reviews on Amazon but looks legit:
Black Panther Leather Wallet Case
Black Leather Wallet Case
Ordered the Black Panther directly through their website, followed on Twitter for 10% discount, ends up $9 cheaper than Amazon
Fliptroniks direct link
No mention of it (or the company) through a search here at xda so taking a chance. I'll return and give my opinion once I get it.
Spigeon Slim Armor S-view
Although I usually love Spigeon cases, the Slim Armor S-View model is sub-par IMO. The hinge for the front cover is held together by two small plastic pegs, which after less than a month of opening and closing it has caused the plastic part that holds the pegs in, to break off and the hinge will not stay on and close. If you just love the case or want the S-View function, than I would eith suggest the official Samsung S-View case and buy the magnetic clips to keep it closed, or get a knock-off case. I remember aliexpress.com having a bunch of knock-off stuff for cheap, but keep in mind it is still knock-off/clones.
Wallet case? I don't know, probably Spigen has some nice cases. I have one wallet case and is from Design Skin. I like it, but don't how others would think about it.
I just want to say i don't like my Note 3.

I have been binging on Oneplus 7 Pro review videos and the phone seems to come with a clear TPU case in the box. Not sure if that is for all variants though. I was going to order a clear case off Amazon, but I'll wait until I see if it comes with one.

Stock case is really thin.... So i usually go with 1 of the big names for a case
I wish UAG makes a case for this phone.

But they Must lower the price.
I went through Amazon today to find a screen protector and a case, some of them already have reviews that are 10 days old, those paid reviews don't make the choice easier...
It will be interesting to see which ones work well with a good screen protector

I like thin cases so I ordered a Nillkin https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07RSGPBRT/ref=twister_B07DCQVJX4?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1
I had one on my McLaren for months. Took a few drops, works well, minimum bulk and weight.

Just wished it had a magnetic back like the Nillkin I'm using for the 6T.
Still waiting for the phone but I have already ordered:

Official One Plus Silicone Case (Red) for 7 pro
Any word regarding the Red Silicone Case for the 7 pro? Loved it on my 6T!
dbrand grip <3 comes in 1 month
https://dbrand.com/shop/grip/oneplus-7-pro-cases
I may try that DBrand Grip case when it comes out. I heard good things about that case.
Really thinking about upgrading from my 1+5... You guys would trust in a bumper (only edge covering) to protect this phone? what do you think about that kind of "cases"?
I'm looking on Amazon but it seems that most the ones at the top are full of fake reviews. Some of them have 5+ reviews and none are even verified purchases...
I may just check out a couple of the 10 dollar ones and see how well they work.
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07Q519FB2/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I got that one and worse case returning it is easy if there are issues
Osophter Dual Layer Cases Hard
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07Q1NFX8L..._4S12Cb6FBFTMZ
I ordered in dark cyan.
I like the Ringke but it won't arrive when I get the phone.
My phones always have a case.
I like the Karbon case from Oneplus, I just didn't want to fork over close to $40 for a case.
I went with this one:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07Q4MKCN2
No idea how good it is, but I'll update once I get it.
