I live in India so for me it was very difficult to find a perfect skin, either it was too expensive or the quality wasn't up to the mark. Finally I found Gadget Shields, who had skins at a very affordable price. I bought the Carbon Fiber Black and I have to say that the quality and craftsmanship is pretty good. Although it took me 30 mins to put the skin on, it was quite easy and I have mine perfectly installed. It's also pretty nice that they give you a free screen protector, however I had my Tempered Glass Screen Protector already on from TechArmor so I did not apply the screen protector and the front piece of the skin. Trust me, skins are awesome! You might argue that a slim case is better, I too thought the same but this thing is slimmer than the slimmest of the cases out there in the market right now. Even if you are a resident living in the US this thing is way cheap as compared to a company like DBrand, who sell their back piece for a hefty 10$. In this case you'd get everything under 15$. Also what I got free was a scratch on the back, I don't know why did they even give me this defect piece maybe it happened by chance but I am 100% sure that it didn't happen due to my fault(see the images for a reference). Anyways the skin is so good I am very happy with it.
Here are some of the pictures I have taken for the curious ones out there who want to see how the skin looks on the Nexus 5.

Finally found a case I like, the Momax i Case Pro.
Price was around $11 USD shipped.
Reason I like this case is thick enough for basic protection and thin enough not to add any bulk.
I been looking at some of the slim case, most of them doesnt add protection to the screen side of the phone.
I think this is a great case for people who wants a slimr cases but wants protection to the edge on screen side of the phone.
The edge is made out of soft rubber materials and thin hard plastic.
As you can see the edge that stick out on the screen side is very thin.
Just enough to cover the metal-like that goes around the SGS2 screen.
Rubber button are easy to press.
Back is thick enough for camera screen not to touch a flat surface.

From the photos it appears this picks up dust/lint easily?
Can you say?
Case*Mate, Barely There Brushed Aluminum Case
Got this today locally and only grabbed it cause I was able to get it way below its retail. After putting it on the phone, I really like it. I loved my Incipio feather lite and this is actually better imo. The edges actually snap over the phone and the bottom and top are actually covered a tad more than the feather lite did on my gs2 (this could be from the different style of phone though).
The aluminum on the back feels pretty nice and the paint is actually nice on the rest as it isn't slippery like I thought it would be. Sweaty hands my make it slippery though.
You can get these at at the case mate website for $40, or at the AT&T store for $40 as well.
I don't think this will protect the phone to well in a massive drop, but it will obviously protect it from scuffs and help keep the battery cover like new (cause we like $40 cases that protect $20 battery covers ).
Mainly I got this cause I don't like bulk and at more than half price, I couldn't pass it up. XD
On to the pics -

IMAK Transparent Crystal Clear Hard Cover Case Shell Compatible for OnePlus On... http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00L4APLTA/ref=cm_sw_r_tw_awdm_KudYtb0155H8V
I ordered the above case from Amazon due to Prime shipping. Below are a few quick thoughts and photos. Photos are not the best but should give you an idea of fit.
It is exactly as advertised, a clear hard snap on case. I tend to prefer no case or a thin TPU, but at least with this case I can see the phone(I hate covering a phone with a bulky case). Even though I prefer no case, this one does look good on the phone.
Pros:
-Cut outs for power and volume are tight, but even with my sausage fingers I can hit them easily.
-looks great
-good build quality
-fits perfectly
-cheap $10 shipped
Cons:
-goes without saying but minimal protection
-biggest gripe I have, the lip on each side is equal in height to the screen. So no sitting the phone face down.
-company stamped their logo on the back. It is small so I don't mind, but it looks like a drunk cross eyed person did it. It is off center and crooked. I will have to figure out a way to rub it off it is that bad.

Does the case interfere with the flash when you use it?
I've bought one too. Now the wait begins.

So here I have two pretty cheap accessories products for OnePlus One
Casebase Premium Tempered Glass Screen Protector TWIN PACK
I would say its a great value product as you get two for £9.99. I have an experience with Nillking product where I found this is more fingerprint resistive. Its crystal clear, no picture distortion, no sharp edges. Pretty happy with it

Cotechs® - Gel Case Skin TPU
This is really cheap but good quality gel skin. All the cut outs are in right place and align. Its really tight so it fits and hold really good. You can choose from different colour variations. For this money you can't get wrong
Good set up. So far I'm waiting on a screen protector. I thought I would be fine without a case but something like this case would be good.
Too bad they don't ship that case to the US...

Is the lip so high that you can lay the phone face down without it resting on the screen?

I would say yes.but cos its so cheap the piece from piece may differ
Check it out. Just bought my clear case for $4. I also chose the slowest delivery for $5 in Amazon Pantry cash. So I basically was given a $1 to take this case.

I had this posted in the S8 thread before they split the phones apart. Sorry for the repost to here.
just ordered 2 cases
clarity and prooftech
Thanks, just grabbed one. Not sure if the quality is going to be any good, but I'll keep my fingers crossed.
Been searching for a privacy screen protector for this phone but I only find the glass 9h ones, anyone else seen em somewhere online?

Same here. I figured I'd give it a go.
Curved screen protectors never stick the right way.
Save your money and install a zagg.
I bought the clear case. It showed up the other day. It's not a flimsy TPU case, it's quite rigid and hard. Feels very grippy. I guess I'll see what the screen protectors are like when they ship on the 7th.
Case just came in. Great build and looks to be on par with other firm tpu cases.
