Hello. Last week I received my tempered glass and my case from Godsmith. Luckly, or not, in 3 days I broked the glass protector. But this was not the problem. After 2 days after I used the case, The top corners broked, even if I dropped the phone only 2-3 times, but nothing seruously. One morning, the plastic around the camera was broken too, and the $10 I've spent for it were gone. That's why I am asking you guys. I need a new case which is very resistant, but not from silicone. I want ine just like the one from Godsmith, but with a better build quality. Thanks.
I'm currently running the Ringke FUSION case.
Looks not so pretty, but it's very resistant, especially on corners. A few weeks ago my One fell hitting the floor with absolutely no damage to case and/or phone.
It seems to be pretty thick.
they're not to thick, so far it's my favorite one I bought 2 the clear one and the one with the tint. I like showing off my bamboo back cover so rocking the clear one the most. I'm using with the tempered glass screen protector from OPO fit it's great no issues. The distronic cases might be a good choice for you they're thin decent protection and fit is good

Thank you for your answers guys. I just found out that the case I am looking for is a hard one, like these ones: http://www.aliexpress.com/item/One-...-one-Oneplus-Screen-Protector/2014021845.html, http://www.aliexpress.com/item/Qual...Cover-For-OnePlus-A0001-Phone/1975081836.html.
Like I said before, i used for a couple of days this one, http://www.aliexpress.com/snapshot/6553333285.html?orderId=66333886303327, and it felt awesome, very thin, like I didn't have it on. But after a couple of days of usage, the corners and the plastic near the camera broke, poor quality I guess. If anyone used/have a hard case like this, please review it for me. Thanks.
Hello!
I chose nillkin case, but looking to buy nillkin glass, and have a question: they have new H+ Pro and PE+ glass, not only H like it was for Oneplus One.
Did anybody try it? Any recommendation?
btw, H glass was awesome for oneplus one.
Links to actual products:
PE+
H+ PRO
H
Thanks for suggestions.
What are differences between them?
From what I can tell...
PE+: blocks blue light from screen (filter of sorts), is 0.3 mm thick, no claim for light transmittance, nano oleophobic coating.
H+ Pro: 0.2 mm thick, 99.9% light transmittance, nano oleophobic coating.
H: 0.3 mm thick, 99.99% light transmittance, nano oleophobic coating.
Not sure how they have 99.99% light transmittance in a thicker screen protector, but whatev.
Am I right that H+ Pro is the preffered option?

Definitely, for glass the thinner the better because its less noticeable and at 0.2mm it will still offer decent protection.
But personally I'd just get a few of these and call it a day, they all come from the same place any way if you know what I mean.

Ok, great, thanks.
cr0wnest, also thanks for a link, either I understand what you mean, I will go with nilkin, they recommended themself by great cases for me + glass for my previous phone (oneplus one) was pretty good.
Will order 0.21 (H+ Pro), ty.
I'm expecting a pe + buy in aliexpress.
I hope that the home button is not too deep.
I received my Nillkin H+ the other day and I can say there is a huge difference between this and a Bepak glass protector I previously owned.
Nillkin will be a risk-free choice!
Hey how was your experience with nillkin h+ pro? I am confused between nillkin h+pro and original one plus 2 temeperd glass. I want to use it with otterbox back cover
Bought this a few days back and it's really very good , looks beautiful , is resistant to everyday usage and is very thin . the oleo phobic coating really works , the display is always clean unless your hands are very oily .

How is the oleophobic, transparency and fit in that one?
I need a perfect fit for placing a skin on top of it.
Do you recommend this one?

Oleophobic wise, I think the CHYI glass is better. http://www.aliexpress.com/item/2015...tor-protective-film-Original/32438566718.html
But in terms of transparency and fit, they are exactly the same to me. Though I'd get the chyi glass in this case.

Matte glass protectors are same in thickness as the normal ones, but with the anti glare matte quality on the screen. Its exactly the same feeling as the matte plastic film protectors. It is less prone to fingerprints as well. I only had it on for a while before switching back to normal clear tempered glass, I prefer to have clarity.

Sorry to bother so much haha. But I noticed that it is 0,26mm.
Maybe I should look for 0.2 mm or the difference isn't so big?
Maybe nilkin h+ if it really is like both combined can be the best option

Those that say 0.2mm is actually 0.26mm or maybe even 0.3mm. After using so many tempered glasses, all that talk about thinness is BS to me.
@mantiyeah i got the H+pro
I was tipped off by a friend that the Nilikin H+ Pro tempered glass have a better oleophobic coating than normal tempered glasses, and they only cost slightly more. I don't have a H+ Pro to test so I cannot say. Can someone confirm this?
Oh yes the oleo phobic coating on the h+pro is much better than on regular ones .

Hi guys
Has anyone found a nice slim case that offers excellent protection all round that they would recommend and that also works with a tempered glass?
Please do share pics, links or suggestions.
Thanks

the black case came yesterday and it is perfect, highly recommended.
it has nicer cutouts and a nicer feel in hand than the jelly one that came with it.
it kinda feels like holding the phone with no case and fits perfectly snug.
maybe a bit slippery but i hated that sticky tpu jelly poop :good::fingers-crossed:

That's good to hear in terms of its fit, on the rear is it a bit raised by the camera module and in the front for the screen for protection? Are you using a tempered glass with it? Thanks :good:

Case arrived today. I love how it fits perfectly. It has a very nice texture at the back for extra grip. The power and volume buttons are very tactile. The lips are raised enough to protect the screen very well. The fingerprint scanner cutout is designed beautifully that your finger just slides over it.
I have bought this Nilkin Hard Case for my Redmi 5 Plus, superb quality and it fits absolutely perfect to the device.

I don't think tempered glass would fit perfectly with thos case. As this case edges are very close to the display leaving little to no space at all. You can use tempered glass or plastic screen protector that does not cover the whole glass.
I am sharing some pictures for you to see how it fits on the phone.

Thank you very much. I am using a 5D tempered glass , so for a while i will use the silicon one which came with the phone.

No, because i have no other camera to take a photo of my phone, but trust me, the cover is perfect.
Ah and it's easy to read the reviews on site, they photos also.
I applied the glass protection of the brands Mocolo and Amfilm on my Pixel 2 XL. And what I realize is that, the black level is decreased somewhat giving way to gray color. These glass films look shiny. I wonder if these films of malleable plastic that needs a liquid to be applied, if it keeps the color faithful to the screen.
The last film I used was this ..

There is another plastic film option as well. Even though it protects little compared to glass, I prefer plastic because of the faithful color levels. For greater protection only use a case that has larger edges than the screen. I use a Spigen liquid crystal and its edges is above the screen, so I already have a good protection.

https://www.amazon.ca/Google-Screen-Protector-G-Color-Applied/dp/B078W1DHG2
I've had this for a while after some bad tempered glass experiences. Along with a Spigen case of course.
Just wanted a thread for information.
So...
Original case: Fits, works great, but it's a lame case. Very slippery, little protection.
Spigen Ultra Hybrid: OK. Works great with the Dome, it's not touching and installs easily. I like how it feels, good case.
Otterbox Symmetry: Works but very, very tight fit. Even normally, it's such a tight fit you are almost breaking the phone. It's a pretty weird design honestly. The front "lip" has a rubbery finish that I do not like either.
Post your experiences and I'll update the OP post!
Thank you.
I'm using the sandstone case with the dome

That's why I believe the next best thing is like the Dome & OnePlus sandstone case. The case is minimal with an awesome grip & the dome has the feel and appearance of the original screen

I too like my phone naked without anything on it but the phone gets so many scratches and dents on the edges so I decided to install a full-body screen protector from Gadgetshieldz. The protector is very thin which I like about it and I can barely feel it on my phone. Try this instead of a case to feel the phone as it is.

I was using Whitestone dome with gray sandstone case as well. Til the Whitestone started getting dust under the edges and it cracked. I bought the 2 pack with light but they didn't give extra speaker/port stickers to apply the 2nd protector. Between spigen and rinke cases in rotation currently.

But sometimes that thin protection can tear apart and which can be very dangerous in certain climax scenarios when you are in a hurry. Moreover, some people prefer the case as it provides more grip and some even have textures and colours on them to give more pleasure to the user.

It is risky if you go with cheap brands, this one I'm using for 3 months now and there is no peeling or tear of the protector. I hate the tempered glass because it eventually breaks in a month or two so I'm going with this.
