Pure Gear Moto Atrix Shells

They offer several different ones, that look decent and aren't too expensive by any means. Just a heads up, for those of you who are looking for a new case. I'm probably going to order the fake leather one and the 'magnet gray' one as well.

I love how you linked the site while OP disguised his link
The leather one look cheap and tacky to me. These cases are nice but they don't seem to cover enough of the phone for me.

They look like the cheap (construction-wise) snap on cases. For $30, just get the Seidio Innocase. It's way better in my opinion.
Seidio Innocase II Surface - Black, Amazon
Black and other colors, Seidio Online
On Amazon I got it a week ago for $20, so maybe check a few times they drop the price every once in a while I think.

i got the same case that incipio made for $10 over at Fry's electronics

I didn't want this to be a comparison thread. I simply wanted to point out there are alternative cases out there on the market.

I'm really glad you pointed these out. I used to have a Barely There case on my old iPhone and these look pretty similar to that (I really liked it). I've been waiting for a case like this! Since Case Mate doesn't make any for the Atrix, I might get one of these. The colors aren't great, but I hate cases that snap together...

Thanks OP. Just ordered the magnet grey one. Will update when it arrives.

I'm ordering the grey one as soon as I get paid friday! I want overnight shipping, I don't care if I have to pay another 10 bucks to receive it, lol.

Yea.... they are quite nice looking. Not sure if i really wanna give up my TPU case though....
When either of you get yours.... mind posting some more pics? Would like to see what the inside of the case looks like, too.

Sure thing. I should have it tomorrow.

Just ordered the grey one, hopefully it arrives on Monday!

So can someone explain what exactly this case feels like? I don't REALLY get what a "rubberized satin finish" means... In the past I've used the case-mate barely there cases, which I like because they're not squishy or really rubbery and such. This pure gear case looks solid, but it says it's rubberized so I dunno.
And while I'm asking, what exactly is a TPU case (like this one: http://www.amazon.com/Amzer-Argyle-High-Gloss-Soft-Gel-Motorola/dp/B004L2L6JM/ref=sr_1_6?ie=UTF8&qid=1304100403&sr=8-6)
Is it similar to the pure gear material?

Just got mine. First impression is this thing is nice! One of the thinnest cases/shells I've ever seen. Just went into our QA dept to use a caliper and it only measures .86mm or .034" thick. The texture feels almost exactly like my old G1 did. Doesn't feel like it's going to be a lint magnet either. The grey color is a bit lighter than I was expecting too but not too light. It fits OVER the existing battery cover and fits nice and snug. No give in any direction at all. Overall I like it it so far.
I'll post pictures tonight when I get home.

TPU (Thermoplastic Polyurethane) is basically like a mix of a hard shell and a silicon cover. It's quite flexible, although not flimsy like a silicon cover.... and it's durable.... able to withstand quite a bit and still return to it's original shape. Actually recorded a video of me squeezing the crap out of one such TPU case that i got on eBay because of someone in another thread questioning the quality of the eBay cases.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=700ZNRtNEOA
As for "rubberized satin".... i believe it's basically a quite smooth yet soft feel.... not like a silicon, but not quite like a hard rubber case either. Hard to explain, really. If i had to guess, i'd say it might be similar to the Barely There case, but i'm not sure as i've never used either.

Here's some glamor shots of mine.

Hmm.... not too shabby looking. I may just order one.
edit: Just ordered the deep plum colored one. Only did ground shipping, as i didn't really feel like paying the same amount for shipping as i did for the case.... so it may be a little while.

Thanks for all the info guys! I always wondered what all these different types of plastic cases are. Thanks for the pics too, they inspire me to order one! Has anyone gotten the blue? How does it look in real life?

A real leather case for GBP9?!? Amazon

At 9 squid, I took a punt with this case from Amazon, not expecting much:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B006DUTNU4
I am, however, quite surprised. The leather is slightly padded, well constructed edged etc and seems a similar build to cases by the likes of PDair or Proporta. The only let down is the clip holding in isn't grippy enough for me, so I have tightened it a fair bit, which helps.

Looks pretty good for £9, but I really wanted a book style case. I've taken a punt on a black one of these from Korea...

I've been eyeing this case. How's the quality? What about usability, is it a hindrance? And does it seem to be helpful against drops?

C'mon ... it's amazing :-D

Let us know what it's like - I'm liking the look of this case.

I am also quite interested in the case you purchased from Korea, please let us know your comments once you received the case.

Which Flip Case offers the best protection?

I realize none of the flip cases will offer the same protection as my Otterbox Defender but which one do yall think offers the best protection? Most I've seen seem to leave the top and bottom of the phone pretty much exposed other than possibly a teeny tiny bit on the corners. I ordered one of thsoe KLD Oscar II's off Amazon a couple weeks ago and the pics look good but it dont seem like it's really going to protect the phone very well.

Curious about this one too. I ordered the KLD Eland, so I'll leave some thoughts once it arrives.

Well finally got the KLD Oscar in the mail this evening, while it looks nice I'd prefer something with a little more protection, might save the KLD for a weekend case. Too bad that dont make something like an Otterbox flip phone, that would be perfect! Due to the fact I work in a chemical plant and ride a motorcycle I prefer something a little more rugged than most.

Writing a full review for this case because it is dead sexy, tough, and offers a lot of protection.
Unlike all the other leather or pleather flip cases I've used this one is thick and padded without feeling bulky or heavy. Plus the company will laser etch a custom message anywhere you want. It's a damn good case.

I ordered the Western Leather case from Tuff-Luv on Monday, I'll put up some pictures and a mini review once it arrives. For the price I hope it will be better than the HTC Double Dip Flip.

These look pretty decent here also........

Nice looking case, exactly what I'm looking for, but man that is expensive...

But yours can be the one with bad moths on it. Or don't panic in my case.
I will say that I have used many leather cases over the hers and this is the only one that feels and looks like what I expect in a luxury item in both durability and style. I can't really stress that this thing is built to last in a way that mobile baubles never are. There's one on the nexus 4 that still looks like fresh sex after a year in the hands of possibly the world's clumsiest one eyed phone geek.

Tudia Ultra Slim Melody Case

Has anyone got one? They look nice and get good reviews on Amazon but would be good if someone who has one could post some pics of the real thing. I have the Spigen ultra hybrid which looks great but adds a lot of bulk to the phone and doesn't feel so great. I also have a cheapo tpu case which actually feels great but the finish is a bit poor and its a little saggy.

I don't have one, nor any experience with the maker, but they do look on the thicker side for TPU cases.

Now it's working... how so?
Yeah it seems like on the thicker side.

Got one of these today and really love it! Fantastic case.

"TPU" and "Ultra Slim" should never be uttered in the same sentence unless that sentence is "Nothing about TPU is ultra slim by any stretch of the imagination."
stahp.

Great case! Fits the phone perfectly without room for it to slide up and down inside the case. Buttons are not too hard to press but a little more difficult. All ports are accessible. The speaker grill cut out isn't perfectly put, but is just fine.

Still waiting for mine to be delivered, looks like it's coming from the UK from the US via snail mail.

Got it the other day - nice case fist really well with no saggyness, I have ditched my spigen ultra hybrid for this as that whilst looking cool was too bulky.

This is a mediocre case at best. It's slim, but has the sticky feel of glossy TPU, which I hate. The design on the back may or may not appeal to you -- I found it repulsive. Overall, with this case, you get what you pay for. I personally think it ruins the aesthetics of the Nexus 5.

If the back is so repulsive why on earth did you buy it in the first place? It was quite evident in the pictures and listings that it was glossy tpu and the back was the way it is. Surely one of the main reasons people buy this case is because they like the design on the back. The case is cheap but alot better quality than other tpu cases ( of which I have bought 2) of a similar price and ruins the aesthetics no more than any other case, compared to other cases I have bought including the spigen it follows the contours of the phone well.

Do you honestly think I would have bought it if I had known that I didn't like the back design? It looked great in the photo, but not when I had it in my hands.

Moto G Bumper Cases

Looks like the gates are slowly opening for more variety of cases being made to sold on ebay now.
Here's the link. These bumpers are probably the same kind as the ones Poetic made for their Nexus cases considering the color schemes are eerily similar. I think I'll buy the yellow and black one.
Looks pretty good. Thoughts?

Not enough protection for me. But if you like it, go for it.

Just bought the yellow one. I'll post a mini review and or photos if anyone wants them.

I do want a review

It arrived yesterday and I've been gathering my thoughts on this case. First of all, if you did order this, expect it to be delivered within 20 days or so. Mine took a long time.
This case/bumper feels very rigid and grippy despite the shiny borders that clamps down the sides of the phones. As you can see, I bought the yellow version to differentiate my phone a bit in spite of the boring black phone. The buttons feel pretty solid and aren't mushy as some might be worried. The case seems to offer decent protection too, and should aid against minor bumps or drops. My only complaint was that it does make the phone a bit wider and taller than other cases I have. I have an old blue TPU case that I bought a long time ago, and it is ever so slightly taller and wider in comparison. Most shouldn't notice the difference though, I just have an eye for those niggling details.
Overall, I'd give the case a 9/10. I think it's superbly solid for the price and I love the colors of the black and yellow that it provides my phone.
Also, sorry for the bad photos. I didn't realize how bad my old digital camera had gotten.

Bought one just now. This will be my fifth case for Moto G

Likely I'll get the red one.To protect from crash.

Hi although the official grip cover looks cool on the device and doesnt add extra thickness to the device.. I am not very confident about how well it would protect the device..hence I have been thinking about getting a Cruzerlite Bugdroid Circuit Case for the phone. Any of you who have been using the Cruzerlite Bugdroid Circuit Case kindly provide some feedback..how thick does it make the phone ? Does it really protect the phone well ?
