you mentioned the first case, the bumper case, came with the device, also noticing your accent.. is this case only provided to the versions sold in your region of the world?
Here in US, the carrier version I got came with no case, nor a screen protector that is mentioned as being included on the OnePlus website..

The video you uploaded is FLIPPED, left is right and vice versa. Do correct it.

I have the Flip Case by Keledes. leather case , nice. bulky as hell!
Very disappointed that there is no auto wake when open /close of flip case.
and also, this case puts tthe phone into vibrate.? does not flip the switch on side, but rather i suddenly find the phone is on Vibrate, take out of case and it automaticallly goes back to ring. weird?!

Samsung OEM Blue Dot Matrix Case vs Body Glove

Has anyone gotten the blue dot matrix case from Samsung? Im thinking of switching the bodyglove case for it.
http://www.daydeal.com/product.php?productid=45327&cat=5096
haven't tried it but it seems to have the same fit as the body glove which is the best fitting case i have seen.
I have the bodyglove right now, but so does the misses so Im lookin for something else.
the bodyglove is TPU but the samsung is "gel." I was hoping someone had it so they could compare the material.
i have a body glove case and I will definitely suggest it over samsung as it fits perfect and strong enough. it also looks cool..!
I have a body glove on mine and it's great. Tight fit, looks good, doesn't make the phone too big, feels strong enough to protect it well. Definitely worth the $25. Although I do like the look of the Samsung case, especially with the Galaxy S branding on it. But aren't silicone gel cases a dust magnet in your pocket like a rubber case?
My wife has the OEM gel case with the pink filigree and I have the Body Glove case ... the fit is very similar to the body glove case. Note that the power and volume buttons are covered (as opposed to the Body Glove case)
A couple of pictures here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=7636234&postcount=36
The material is definitely softer (than Body Glove) - but not flimsy like other gel cases I've owned in the past.

Hi:
How is your case holding up? I have the one with Pink, and after only a week and a half of using it, the black has rubbed off the corners, and now the pink is exposed. I have never even dropped it, and only use it inside my purse or pocket.
I wonder if I just got a defective one.
Thanks!

The same is happening here - I was considering emailing Samsung to complain, but kept forgetting.
Thanks for the reminder! I'll let you know what Samsung support has to say about it. If you contact them and hear back, I'd be interested to know what they tell you too
Quick update - after waiting 2 days for an email response from Samsung support, I called. Since I'm outside of the 30 day return period, they will be RMA'ing my wife's gel.
I imagine that the new one they send me won't perform much differently - but I've got a fortte case on order to replace it when that starts wearing too
Cheers,
Carlos

Well, I got a reply after 2 days saying I had to call. I haven't bothered to, since I bought mine on Ebay (new in Samsung packaging), I doubt they'll do anything for me.
Hope you have better luck with the new one.

You might have a chance if you deal with their warranty center (since you can provide a record of when you purchased it on ebay). It does carry a 90-day warranty ... so it's probably worthwhile to call and check. The worst that will happen is that they'll tell you they won't honor the warranty.

Official Flip Cover questions please

Can anyone upload some pics of it on please.
Does it fit perfect?
How's quality, does it scuff easily?
Does it fold back on itself so you can use the phone like this?
Does it stay shut ok, is there anything to keep it closed? Im a bit worried it might end up getting folded the wrong way so doesn't stay closed properly? Would be great to have an iPad like smart cover...
I'm about to order a white S3, but am going to get the blue flip case as I like the contrast between the two, anyone have this combo?
I have the official white flip case and it looks really good. You remove the original back off the galaxy siii and clip in the flip case instead. A perfect fit too. Very professional looks good to me. The top flip part does fold behind back of phone easily! seems designed to fold that way too!
When flip cover is closed over screen it doesnt fasten in place but it does stay in place well. Only bought phone and flip case yesterday..

I ordered a flip case with my vzw preorder, but I'm going to get the wireless charger when it releases and that requires a unique back cover that I suppose will then make the flip cover useless to me....
There's a review here:

Also be aware that, according to reviews on Amazon.de, you cannot see the LED through the flip cover.

NO. WAY!!!
/sarcasm
I got mines for free from P4U they gave me a 32gb card and an original case i was shocked i thought it would be a cheap case lol..
It fits perfect the interior for the front is a soft cloth like the ones you get when you buy a screen protector..
The outside is hard plastic feels awesome to the touch.. It does cover the LED so you will miss your notifications if you do happen to miss it. But at in the dark you can see it..
Oh and the back bit adds a bit of weight to it so your phone feels alot more heavier not too heavy though makes it feel perfect.. Back plate isn't flexible either it's solid..
I've not had any scuffs at all in the last 4 days i have been using it so no it doesn't get ruined easily I guess..
Other then that it's a brilliant case..
Has anyone purchased the blue version of the flip case? How does the shade of "chrome blue" compare to the "pebble blue" of the original back?

My idea is to get the white S3 and buy the blue flip cover, I think they look good together
The problem with the official flip case is that it actual replacing the original back cover and it is made from the same material just like the original back cover.
The display is protected but the back side...well...unprotected...you can still scratch the back.
After several weeks or months the back cover will still be damaged and it will look ugly with all that scratches...and then what? buy another flip cover?
Has anyone tried to combined the official flip case with another case or bumper or whatsoever to protect the back cover?
With this for example:
http://www.incipio.com/Samsung-Gala...-S-III-feather-Ultralight-Hard-Shell-Case.asp
I would like to see a drop test with the flip cover vs no flip cover and see if it actually protects the screen, otherwise it doesn't worth anything.

Beside the fact that it does not protect the back cover.
I have also some doubts regarding this issue.
The thing is, there is lock or snap on mechanism on the flip case.
Meaning, the flip can be opened very easily...I dunno if this is still reliable if it falls like...not opening during fall and leave the screen unprotected.
Note:
Providing some degree of protection during fall, it is impossible to protect it to 100%.
Hantec just emailed me they have stock of the white flip in the UK, £22.79

No offense guys, but this is simply one of the worst ideas I have ever seen for a phone accessory. Why in the hell would anyone want to add more steps to accessing their phones? I can understand it with a tablet, where you're never in huge hurry to start working on something; but on a phone?!?! Flip-phones are extinct for a reason guys.

This. I have a flip-cover for my OG Galaxy Tab, but I've never been able to understand why you'd want one on a phone either.
Flip covers provide very little protection against drops; make it more inconvenient to instantly access your phone, and have an annoying floppy flap on the back when open during calls.
The only pros I can see is that it looks "adult", and that some flip covers fold to act as a landscape stand.

So you are also against leather pouches/sleeves?
It provides screen protection for when the phone is in a pocket.
No, the flip cover doesn't protect the back - it's not meant to since it is a replacement back. I.e. the mere fact that you can easily replace the back with a new one means that rather than put an additional cover on there you could just treat the back as a cover and replace it if it gets scratched.

Exactly.
I don't like cases in general. The back cover is a replacement as you say, the front flap is to protect the screen in pocket. This is exactly what I want. I don't want a bumper, back case that adds bulk to the phone. It's slim and light for a reason.
My other option is a pouch, so I can again protect in pocket, but use the phone naked

I have another solution (works for me): Put your keys and your change in your *other* pocket, then you don't need any pocket screen protection. As an added bonus, the screen emerges from your pocket with all the fingerprints mostly wiped off.

Poor case selection

I'm trying to find a case with a belt clip but I've only found one believe it or not. Searching Amazon I've found the same case rebranded a hundred times over.
Problem is, I bought one and it has a critical flaw. With the case on the phone, insert it into the slip holster (aka clamshell) and the railing of holster constantly pushes the power button, so every time I pull out the phone, it reboots! I though it was my phone at first. Anyway, all designs on Amazon are the same! Just overseas made and sold by differing names.
I checked eBay too
I have found some nice horizontal cases (with a flap) that I think will work but I'm feeling like I will never see a true clamshell or clip design for this device...
I don't pocket my phones at all. I find it ruins the finish and is uncomfortable to me.
Just a rant. Anyone know of a well built case that offers a belt clip. I'll pay the price for a quality case, gladly!

A crazy idea that might work....
I had an idea! The Axon 7 measures 5.97 x 2.95 x .31 and the Google Pixel XL measures 6.09 x 2.98 x .33. With my TPU case on, I think if I purchase the Seidio spring clip holster this might just fit the bill. The side rails might be cutting it close, but I am willing to take the chance.

I tried that one. It has a critical design flaw. When I put it into the belt holder, the belt holder pushes, and holds, the power button hard-rebooting my phone every time. I think the inner rubber phone case fits loosely which causes too much material over the power button. LOL Otherwise it isn't that bad of a combo.

Amazon. Com
Received my Poetic Revolution series case for my A7 today. I am very impressed by it thus far, especially by the built-in screen protector since there are no full screen tempered glass protectors for the A7 due to the curved glass. I don't plan on tossing my phone around to test out the durability but it feels like it is going to offer some good protection all around.
Is there any flip cover case with sleep/lock function, like the original?
Couldn't find any, on ebay or EU amazons, except the original from US which costs 55 $ with postage to Europe...
Nillkin, who has such nice quality and economy cases, has not produced an Axon 7 case.
Any suggestions pleaseeee ?
I'm very happy with the one given in the box.

You can buy the original from ZTE or B&H. Both dropped the price to 9.99 USD. B&H I know ships internationally-don't know about ZTE.

Please report back when you get it, as I'm very curious how it works with signal - every metal case I've ordered in the past for my other phones has reduced the signal slightly to significantly. I had thought the slightly wasn't a problem - what's a decrease of 1-2 bars when you're at full strength anyway?
The problem is when you're in a poor signal area and you NEED that 1 bar and you have to take the phone out of the case to work!
On another note, I wish that someone would make a simple backless bumper case - I miss those days when I could use my phone practically naked with just a protective bumper around the sides.

Ah, sorry to hear about that - I was hoping you had good news, but it seems not only did you not get what you wanted, but have to go through a bit of inconvenience to return the product. I appreciate that you shared your experience, though- thanks a lot for saving me from the same mistake.
I've using my poetic case for a few months now, and thus far I have a few complains
- flaps they remain open after a while, I cut them off both recently
- screen protector awful scratches easily, removed it and used a higher quality protector instead
now is near perfect the case plays well with third party screen protectors and is VERY sturdy, has saved me from QUITE a few drops

I spent tons of time looking for cases for the Axon 7 and found that honestly there are 5 variants. The poetic tank case, the Spigen "rugged armor" case, the dual layer (rubber plus plastic) case thats rebranded by tons of companys, the "iron man" dual layer case (Also rebranded by various companies), and the belt clip one with terrible reviews because of the problem you stated. There are a few others that are some variation of the above or some see-through ones with bumpers but honestly none seemed satisfactory.
In light of this I decided to opt for ZTE's own hybrid material case. I haven't dropped the phone since I put it on but it is definitely sturdier than the case they included with the phone and the material is hard enough yet flexible enough that it seems like it would be able to take a hit without causing any damage to the phone. It also fits really well and is not bulky either. I realize this might not be what you're looking for but for some strange reason good quality cases are far and few between for this phone (perhaps due to some kind of licensing issue from ZTE?) so that case might be your best bet :/. You could potentially get some other kind of belt holster and have this phone sit in it while in the case.

Aluminum doom
Though this question was posed back in May , I didn't see a response answering the question so I'll answer it for you in case anyone else is curious . I purchased the Mirror case for $3.89 on eBay in piano black . ( I always seem to find better deals there and easier to navigate then the Big A but that's just my opinion). It is indeed a beautiful case and mine came in with no damage whatsoever . Indeed it is a tight fit putting the back on but once you get it in place everything does line up perfectly . The concern from another member was whether or not the signal would be blocked with the aluminum casing around the edges . The answer is a very easy yes . The signal degrades horribly . I only get two bars inside my home and with the case on it dropped to 0 with no signal whatsoever . It does get some signal outside but it's not worth using this case if I may be missing important calls or messages from clients . Sadly it's just a beautiful case with poor execution with the materials involved . Fortunately I didn't lose much on the case itself . I really wanted this one to work strictly because it looked so awesome even though it's not great when it comes to protecting the phone itself in a drop . Hope this helps if anyone else was curious about the case.

Sony Xperia XZ2/Compact Cases

Some decent case options are beginning to show up on eBay & Mobile Fun.
I've got 3 relatively inexpensive ones on the way from various eBayers, two clear & one a Matte Green, to match up with my phone color choice:

Anyway i like nillkin case too in red color :laugh:
I got this one from Amazon
http://a.co/azkOIIU
Fits really good and you can see pics I took in the reviews.
I reached out to Devilcase and asked if they were planning any Aluminum bumper cases for the XZ2.
In the first half of May 2018 they should be releasing one for the phone. Just incase anyone else likes those Aluminum bumper cases.
I Have also reached out to Luphie Cases but from them I didn't get any answer as of yet.
DBrand told me they won't be selling any XZ2 Skins.
I might add that I've been using the Style Touch cover for the XZ2 and will until the Devilcase one arrives in late May/June. I don't like the flappy window cover at all. The touch cover is too rigid when you've got the cover opened and I can't hold it comfortably in my hand whilst open. When its closed the cover is not straight on top of the screen and makes it hard for the screen to register touches on the left side of the screen.
Any advice for some shockproof case with display protection? Something like https://m.ebay.com/itm/For-Sony-Xpe...:m:mc31MQr_76OVK-2tnCk12aA&varId=413321369055 (but with display protection I have mentioned).

I have this Nillkin transparent case and it's fine. I also ordered an IMAK case today. I had IMAK cases in the past the the grip is fantastic, it's like you touch a stone.
I have to say these two look kinda decent....

Edit:
So i just bought these two and found some others....
The Ringke one does look a little too bulky, IMHO.
This Nillkin one also looks kinda neat.
this case is awesome and my phone is well protected in case of drop

I bought the transparent version which still shows the beautiful design and avoid sliding and scratches in the back.

I reached out to Devilcase and asked if they were planning any Aluminum bumper cases for the XZ2.
In the first half of May 2018 they should be releasing one for the phone. Just incase anyone else likes those Aluminum bumper cases.
I Have also reached out to Luphie Cases but from them I didn't get any answer as of yet.
DBrand told me they won't be selling any XZ2 Skins.
I might add that I've been using the Style Touch cover for the XZ2 and will until the Devilcase one arrives in late May/June. I don't like the flappy window cover at all. The touch cover is too rigid when you've got the cover opened and I can't hold it comfortably in my hand whilst open. When its closed the cover is not straight on top of the screen and makes it hard for the screen to register touches on the left side of the screen.

Likewise I reached out to Devilcase and asked about a bumper case for the XZ2 compact, the first response was as you mention the second half of may. I waited and the bumpercase for the regular XZ2-model did show up and is available on their page. No sign of the XZ2-compact model however. So I once again reached out and after some back and forth it turns out the XZ2-compact is not available on their domestic market so they will not make the bumpercase available through them directly, it will only be available through their retailers. I am currently awaiting a response for which of their retailers will carry the XZ2-compact model, and will update with their response.

After much searching (I have not yet heard back from devilcase) I believe I have actually found the first batch of bumpercases for the XZ2 Compact (In one of my mails from Devilcase they eluded to that the first batch of cases were branded differently than they normally would be). It seems they went here:
As you can see they are branded DECASE, but it is in fact the Devilcase bumpers, as Croy Mobile is listed as one of their retailers on the Devilcase homepage. So it would seem that a bumpercase for the XZ2 Compact is available, but only in Japan, as I can find no mention of international shipping on the homepage of Croy Mobile.

yeah, that's the Ringke Onyx. It's probably the single, best case available at the moment, if you want any protection for the screen and corners that is. The trend these days seem to be thin cases that just protect from scratches and not drops of any kind. Something I personally don't quite understand (as someone who tends to drop the phone at the gym every couple of months ).
Was quite disappointed in this guy, the Olixar ExoShield. As you can see in this picture I took before I sent it back, while it has great protection for the corners and screen, it's a box that completely ignores the shape of the back of the phone. That ticked me off so much I had to send Olixar a complaint about it asking them what the heck they were thinking.

Question Air Skin-like Case with Kickstand

Hi All,
I've been using Samsung Leather Cover exchangeably with Spigen Air Skin and find the latter a perfect balance between protection and thinness.
I've looked online and could not find cases that would be thin, but have a kickstand.
Has anyone found anything of that sort and can share?
P.S. I am watching the Spigen Neo Hybrid S, but it is still on preorder and not available in Poland, yet.
I am using the Spigen Slim Armor Pro Pen Edition case, although it is going to be slightly thicker - not much though and it does provide amazing protection all around including hinge and holds the S-pen.
As for the Kickstand, an option that I did is stuck a ESR Boost Kickstand on the back of the case which works both with it folded vertical or horizontal and also unfolded so that you have several lean positions.
You could use stick it on your air skin case, but suggest you give serious consideration to the Spigen Slim Armor Pro Pen case if you are using the Air skin, as a better case all-around.
Pics also show my pop socket, another great way to hold the phone, and I also use it with the car mount, and twist off when I wirelessly charge.
Those solutions look quite bulky and I do not like those rings.
Will continue waiting for Neo Hybrid S, unless someone can suggest another good solution
Can u suggest me a strap like the one on the official samsung sylicon case?
Right now im using spigen air case
One strap that looks cool - multi purpose is demoed on GregglesTV Video review which you may like.
I seen another one in one of the forums, not sure which -XDA or Reddit, but you just loop it through the camera opening and the bottom of the camera - very simple but also practical- not sure of the brand or name though.
that setup looks great but I like to use wireless charging I had the Spigen Slim Armor Pro but didn't realize they had a sperate one for the s pen so I returned it

Alredy got the 2nd one u mentioned. Its the ringke back strap. The love strap is not available in india
Wow, India, OK, well those are the two that I have seen...
Myself I use a pop socket, and use it also to mount to my magnetic mount in my car.
When I am going to wirelessly charge, I just twist the pop socket off, and good to charge.

Awesome, happy I was able to help, yeah it looks pretty cool, dual purpose case add-on, enjoy!
Got this armid fiber case from ebay. its so lite and grippy. But i doubt any protection as the cuts outs are so thinn almost i would say negligible. Although it fells better in hand when compared to spigen air
The case seems to be not covering Some of the edges. But i like the matte grippy feel as i have sweaty hands
So, over 2 weeks ago I got the sleek strip and I have to say it is great. I only use it in unfolded state, but it makes holding the phone so much more comfortable, I can really recommend it.
