Looking for Apple Smartcase / Google Pixel Case texture/feel - LG V20 Accessories

Hey guys, I like the silicone (not hard plastic) type of feel to the case - any recommendations for something similar to the Apple smartcase/Google Pixel cases? They have a really tight fit, add little bulk, and are _very_ grippy most importantly (to me anyway).
Thanks in advance

have you checked out the ones from nillkin? i ordered them off aliexpress and waiting for it still but i haven't even gotten the phone yet. lolol.
i trust my nillkin cases, they're always great quality and guards my phone well. the v20 ones has the port protectors as well. the other which i used for my OPO comes with the tactile exterior.
search it up on your fav search engine since i don't know if i can post the links around.

I'm really likeing this one, not as bulky as my Ringke case and A LOT grippier too.

thanks buddy I ordered it up!

Screw that. Where are the live cases like Google had for the 5X/6P and current pixels. And no I don't want one of those NFC stickers with several buttons. I want it built into case and preferably custom like the live case. Can't go wrong with unique and functional.

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.

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.

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!!

The minute I find one I'll buy it... I actually prefer getting the case even before I buy the Note.
Brgds... /Tubgirl
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 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.

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.

Galaxy nexus multiple cases

I generally like to have multiple cases for my phones. I have bought a couple of cases already without having the phone and would like to know which one you guys think is the best. These are the cases I have bought:

I havent heard many good things about the popcase that it may not provide enough protection. It looks cool though. I have the toughcase but its a dust magnet for starters and the silicone also gets in the way of my screen protector (zagg) at the corners. I have a diztronic tpu case and i like the fit of it better and its thin enough to not be too noticeable. So far i like it best but im still waiting for something better....like otterbox?
Yes, I can not wait for the otterbox. I also found a case for other phones called Sillicrylic (I think thats how you spell it) and that looks like an awesome case!
i think nude is better!
Hi, before I get my SGN i had a Desire HD with PoP case !
And I was very satisfied with it
Thank you, I just noticed that one of the ebay links is actually 7 cases, which is awesome so I can switch it out. I will let you guys know which one is best when I get them.

I have this one, and for £1.89 I think it is pretty fantastic. Looks and feels great!
Nay to all of the above
Why hide the Google design. If you look at the use of the phone, the corners are the most hit, so a bumper design is the best. the cases in this post like others I've found are thick and bulky for no real benefit.
iPhone is the best example of what we need.
"Can't paste the link as I'm too new but refer to Ebay "iPhone 4S bumper"
We need to push this design before making out pockets bulk up...

Upstate: Received on Sunday from Amazon. I'm ​happy with this case. It does what I wanted, which was protect the front and rear glass areas from contacting surfaces when I put the device down. The raised rubberized black lines keep the phone up away from the clear cover. The holes in the clear cover for USB, mic, stereo jack (bottom), and whatever the tiny hole next to the camera is on the back all line up perfectly. I like the bumpers on the corners too. Hopefully I won't have reason to test them, but they look capable. :good:
Okay so now I'm pissed because my fave case manufacturer UAG came out with a new model for my phone just days after I settled on something less.

I also picked up this case. It is quite good, nice and slim with solid side grips. Having a clear back allows my Skinnova skin to show through which is cool. It fits tightly around the phone and feels quite sturdy. I'd definitely recommend this if you're looking for something close to a bumper case. I think this might be as close as we're going to get for this device.
i didnt receive my g5+ yet but i found this and i think it looks awesome.

Will do! I just ordered it yesterday, the total came out to around $20 USD. It looks like they 3D print the cases individually, so it won't be shipping out until Aug 31st.
I just got the bumper case from Shapeways today. First impressions - it's just ok, nothing spectacular. It feels like a $5 -10 bumper case, not a $20 one. The fit is a bit loose and not as sung as I would like. The grip is really solid though, and I like the texture. Overall I would say this bumper case isn't worth the money. But if you REALLY want a slim case, I would say go for it. I'm not sure if we'll ever get a different bumper case for this phone, so this might be your only option (at least right now).

Which of these two armor cases do you think is better?

I was looking for a rugged armour case that prevents the camera bump and found the two common types of cases.
One is with a tire tread-like design and the other one has a bubble-like design. Pictures in attachments.
Which one of these would you prefer and if you have had any experience with them please do tell.

"Bubble" case, with reviews:

"Tire tread" case, with reviews:

Another "tire tread" design:
https://www.amazon.com/Moto-Plus-Case-OMOTON-Motorola/dp/B06WP1WB2L
I can't tell if the second tire tread design is the same as the first; the back appears flatter, but it just may be lighting. Either model gets higher reviews than the bubble design, and it looks way cooler.
I bought the Moto G4 version of this case, and was pleased:
https://www.amazon.com/Cimo-Shockproof-Absorbing-Protection-Motorola/dp/B01N7MTNDA
I despise the "kick stands" on smart phone cases; the phone doesn't sit level face-up on a table when the stand is retracted, and has a tendency to rock.
My G5+ carries the boring Spigen TPU case:
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06XD1K5S6/ref=psdc_3081461011_t1_B06WP1WB2L
The Spigen fits VERY snug on the phone, the the TPU material is much firmer than I was expecting (in a good way); the button protectors are partially relieved for smooth button-pressing. I would get the Spigen again without hesitation.

The Spigen fits VERY snug on the phone, the the TPU material is much firmer than I was expecting (in a good way); the button protectors are partially relieved for smooth button-pressing. I would get the Spigen again without hesitation.

Of all the rugged cases you listed, I personally prefer the last two (CIMO and SPIGEN), but I must say that I am quite a fan of SPIGEN rugged cases.
I had SPIGEN on my last three phones, included my current Moto G5 plus
Neither.
Pistol grip texture is my preference.

Nice reviews on Amazon, but it sure is expensive:

FYI, their case also does a very good job of providing a noticeable tactile difference between the power and volume bottons. On this phone, it's really easy to press volume down instead of power on. This is one of the main reasons I like UAG. They do work on the small things.

i have had the SPIGEN case on my g5 since I got it and it is amazing quality for like 10$
Supcase Unicorn Beetle. The best case for this hands down.

I did a search of this case. Walmart and Amazon, only sell it for the Iphone or Samsung phones.. Unless you know of another retailer who sells it for Moto. How is it the best case hands down.

Spigen and CIMO cases seem to have solid reviews. I also like the Supershieldz glass protector:

Well with not, what I consider really good options. I just went ahead and purchased this one.. if it sucks, then I will just send it back.. I would have preferred a Otter Box, since that is all I ever used.. But since they don't offer one for this phone. I just dove in and picked one with a lot of crappy reviews any. LOL What can I loose..

The built-in screen protector models usually get mediocre reviews; either folks love them or hate them. Some models get refraction, and others have sensitivity issues.
I've always purchased the self-apply screen guards and standard cases; I get more flexibility, and costs are significantly less.
Does anyone know of a battery case that fits this phone? I've been searching and can only find a few for the G5 models, nothing for the G5S+

By what do you mean battery case? I bought a case for this phone, but it hasn't arrived yet. I have already sent my Moto G5 Plus back to the store. So if you need a case I will give it to you if you want when it arrives.
FWIW, the Spigen-style case turned out much better than the Diztronic, and can be found on eBay for $2-4. Mostly corrects for what I consider to be a recent ergonomic design fad flaw: curved edges.
