[Q] Do I have to use the the protective case? - Huawei Ascend P6, Mate

Hi!
Please, do I have to the the protecive case supplied with the phone? I don't like protective case, but I had been warned by a shop clerk that the back case would wear down quickly otherwise. I have the black version of the phone.
Thanks

hmmmmm maybe this is the reason why Huawei plans to use glass casing for p7. If P7 comes with some kind of scratch proof glass material, it would be a killer feature.
Anyway to answer your question, i use a slim casing to be on the safe side and not have the horror scenario of seeing a scratch on the phone. Because it is a slim casing i haven't sacrificed too much of its original slimness.
You could on the other hand buy some kind of pouch type cover so you can use it without the pouch whenever using.

Would you mind sharing which case you have, please? The Huawei one that came with the phone is too bulky for my liking.

Protective Rubber Gel Back Case for Galaxy Note

Hi All
So the hunt for a good Protective Rubber Gel Back Case for Note begins... similar to this one would be great!!
http://www.dealextreme.com/p/protec...one-back-case-for-i9100-galaxy-s2-black-70754
The minute I find one I'll buy it... I actually prefer getting the case even before I buy the Note.

I'm with you, this phone is too expensive to damage. I've been searching everyday and have yet to find anything. I usually prefer Ballistics' cases but I doubt they will be making one for this phone so it's back to the drawing board. I'm also wondering if zagg will be making a screen protector for this device. Don't know what I can expect with such a massive device. Maybe turn to the manufacturers of the best tablet cases... I'll post here when I find some cases.

I facebooked Both Ballistic and Otterbox and they both say they don't have any plans for a case.
I'd hate to use my Note without a really good case. Maby i'll make one out of wood...

I'm liking the little brown case that just has a front flat that opens up like a book but it's not protective at all lol
Me too but I can't find a link to buy it yet. Expansys has blue and white...... Yuck..

I think the case of expansys is sleek. It's not making the note any thicker.
Hope they got variety of colors though..
samsung flipover
Samsung will come with a flipover, the back of the flipover will replace the original back of the note. So the note will only become a few mm thicker
I'm also looking to get the Samsung flipover cover when it becomes available. The only problem is the side of the Note remains unprotected, I'm thinking getting a gel case and trim off the left hand side so it will fit togther with the flipover cover.
Meanwhile, here is a really nice durable skin that is already available on Amazon I have used the Skinomi on my previous phones and it covers the phone nicely. All the cutouts are aligned and it barely feels like there is anything on it. Btw, the carbon fiber look makes it look really mean and clean. oh another thing, it's lifetime warranty too.

How does the screen protector feel? I know the Skinomi's tablet protector feels rubbery.

The carbon fibre film must just be 3m di-noc carbon fibre, can be had much cheaper on Ebay and you can just custom cut it to any device.
I wont be sludging up my screen with a screen protector

yup....looking for the same but no luck.
The flip cover is not practical IMHO esp when making calls.
I always used to get hard crystal clear cases such as
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Clear-Cry..._MobilePhonesCasesPouches&hash=item3f0fa5fde0
for my phones.
But lately ive really liked the TPU gel case with stand, such as:
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BLACK-TPU...204593?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item3f0db99071
Which is just like the case in the OP really
The stand is surprisingly useful!

Everyone who doesn't need the case right away, wait til piel frama comes out with a imagnum type of case. This case is expensive but it protects your device against any earthquake you throw at it. I have one for my hd2 and getting one for the note cause my hd2 is still like new. You can put in your e-mail and they'll let you know when it's there to buy. Here's the link

If they release a case like this for the Note I think it might be worth a try. The kickstand could be useful.

Guys do you think a leather/cloth Pouch Pull case would be good enough?
E.g: I though I had more posts here. Anw can't post complete link. The below works tho.

Pouch that will accommodate Rock Quicksand case?

Hi guys,
Just wondering if any of you using a Rock Quicksand case with your S3 have found a leather pouch that the duo will fit in?
I was thinking of buying the official case and hoping it will stretch, but any advice would be much appreciated.
Cheers

Simply because the reviewer said it was loose, it is. Probably enough to get the phone+Rock on with a bit of work. Accepts mine no problem with a flip cover, which has a wider case back and the front flap. Not bad quality either.
Thanks for the reply! In the end, I took a chance and ordered the genuine Samsung Galaxy Note pouch which fits the combo perfectly.
Absolutely delighted.

You guys mind taking some shots of the S3 in note's pouch? I wanna see how snugly it fits into the pouch, and how easy it will be to take out.
I'm using the rock quicksand as well and I have been looking for comfort fit neoprene pouch, nothing skin tight.
Thanks!
Here you go!
The phone fits firmly in the note case but is also extremely easy to remove - if you squeeze the edges of the pouch together, the phone slips out freely.
Couldn't ask for more!

Nice! but it looks like it's made of leather (or faux leather). what's the inside like? same material? suede? I'm just paranoid of how it may scratch my screen. hence I've been looking for neoprene materials all these while. my nillkin protector is dry application hence doesn't cover everything. you reckon it'll be safe from scratches?
Looks like they don't have it locally though. Gonna need to order online....

The inside is a suede type material so shouldn't scratch the phone.

Youre worried about the 2 millimeter space around the screen protector that is of no actual use anyway? (which is also made of gorilla glass 2 and I have to assume it can withstand some soft suede)

I think I'm going to get the Krussell Luna 4XL pouch. I already have a KaysCase and I think the 3XL pouch would fit my phone only but with the case on it I think the 4XL would be a better fit.
http://www.amazon.com/Krusell-Premium-Leather-Samsung-SmartPhones/dp/B006VAMZLA/ref=sr_1_1?s=wireless&ie=UTF8&qid=1341019454&sr=1-1&keywords=krusell+luna+4xl
Hi,
any experience with the Luna 4XL yet? Got a Quicksand merely out of curiosity and I am so much impressed of the haptics it adds, don't want to return it. Still, more important to me is a pouch that protects the phone, especially the screen when it's in my pocket, laptop case, backpack, etc.
I hab pretty good experiences, case-wise with the Noreve on my HD2, but the S3 with the Quicksand so far did not fit into any of the pouches I tried. Placed an order for the Krusell, even though the Quicksand is thicker than the specs for the Luna are (10.8 vs 10 mm). We'll see how it fits...

I've ordered the "Simai" Quicksand Case from this website, they offer quick courier international delivery.

So far, I think that is the best case for the P6 because its very thin and has a premium matte sandy texture to it
Hey dudes!

there are still no news about the official cover?
I found this website that sells an official huawei cover, that looks very similar, ships internationally too.

Could you post a close up pic of your case ?
Im still wondering how it is different from the case that comes with the phone ? I use that case and its good to me in that it fits perfectly and not bulky, its opaque and dont sacrifice my white color p6, and the material is a type that is durable and does not get dirty too quickly.

Really thin case, feather like

Anyone know if there is a case similar like the Incipio Feather?
There is one for the original Nexus 7:
http://www.incipio.com/cases/tablet-cases/google-nexus-7-cases.html
Most probably they will release one for the new model, but I cannot wait that long
Any other good alternative?
Hmm... I don't understand what is that case for? No screen protection, no sleep or stand functionality. Just a pricey useless box. If you care about scratches on the tablet's back (that is not easy!), just buy a "body protection" film...

At this point you might only find TPU cases. Incipio told me in an email that they are working on Nexus 7 2013 cases but do not have any release dates at this time.

Those body skins aren't as effective as a case and don't always cover everything . I prefer just a TPU case on mine. Protects the entire body from scratches and adds some slight drop protection. I don't care about sleep or stand functionality, having a folio flap just gets in the way for me.
Back on topic though, I don't think you're going to find much else than a TPU case at this point, I haven't seen any hard plastic shells like this yet.

please recommend a tough strong case

iam in the army and have to throw around my phone, what strong case to keep it well protected do you recommend?
also i have the bamboo back cover, it wont cause certain cases to not fit right?
found this one http://www.ebay.com/itm/TUDIA-Ultra...288743?hash=item3aae4b87e7:g:~IgAAOSw3ydVrFdy
thoughts on it? is it a good brand?
You have searched the best tough case .. I am using it for more than 3 months .. If you manage to broke your phone in this case then you are going through very very bad luck .. In short you can't find better rough and tough case like this ...
Also it.works well with bamboo and tamepered glass ..
Sent from Bacon (Oneplus One)
thanks for replying , iam worried about its built in screen protecter though, does the screen still look as good through it? no blur or anything? how does it feel to the touch?
There are cases which gives you a sturdy look, gives additional bulk to the device. There are ones which intelligently cover your device in vulnerable places so that falls on any direction wont affect your device. Buy ones like that
well my suggestion is not army proof.. so good choice !!
I have this http://g02.a.alicdn.com/kf/HTB1RWNN...th-Stand-For-one-plus-one-For-OnePlus-One.jpg
2 pieces, dual armour(called). One TPU and one external hard plastic - very safe and if you put a NISSIN(chinese company) tempered glass ..don't worry about anything(almost anything)
