Right now the only option I have seen is the Case-Mate barely there case.
What other options are out there? I want them to be as thin as possible.
I have the i9100 global version.
There's nothing thinner than diabloskinz (see demos on youtube).
It will add "some" protection, without the added bulk of a full size case.
i use cygnett form.. very slim. you can also try capdase or momax
SGP ultra thin air, for a barely there feeling
I use incipio NGP case.
Tis niceeeee

I have a Momax ultra thin case. For this price it is really good - fits tightly and is rather grippy. If you want I can post some pictures of it on the device.
I want some pictures of momax, please buddy=]

x2! would like to see pics too!
Just bought this case from ebay.
Very slim but still I prefer a little thicker case.
I have the Nillkin one. Bought from here:
http://www.obostore.com/nillkin-ult...eplate-for-samsung-galaxy-s2-p-1004.html#show
It took some time to arrive but it's pretty good.
I have the Case Mate BARELY THERE frome here :
http://www.case-mate.com/Samsung-Ga...te-Samsung-Galaxy-S-II-Barely-There-Cases.asp
It's seems the same form factor as the Nillkin.
The price is different.
The case mate is like the back of my old htc Hero, very smooth.
You have access to all the buttons and you can put any Jack 3,5mm without conflicts.

How good it fits to the phone? Does this case scratch the phone?
Thanks!
I found a couple of cases on ebay/obostore/ioomobile that i really liked. All are hybrid(tpu sides, PC back) like the SGP neo hybrid (difference being, the Neo has PC sides and TPU back), and are way cheaper than the Neo, just 11$ on obostore. Has any1 used these and can attest to their quality?

The SGP Neo Hybrids look much nicer, and more high quality. I would suggest going for them, you won't be disappointed.

it states 2 in 1 material meanning one case 2 material, and i have seen and used these cases.
I guess you could not use the back plate and you have a bumper style case? .
Can you do that with the SGP Neo? I thinking of ordering the Momax one

one piece two tone, you can will all tpu if you want, just cut the back off
Got the Momax case from eBay.
Fits really well with stock GSM. TPU sides provide added grip from the material and due to ergonomics.
The back plate...doesnt do much? Nice to have I guess. As mentioned above, its a once piece case. I feel as if the case will lose rigidity if I try to cut it out, so I havent tried it.
The screen protector I have not used but it doesnt seem that great. Its cloudy.
A good case overall. Lots of retailers are selling it now for about $10, search for it.

is the momax icase pro slippery?? would like to try this one out due to availability in indonesia and also there are holes for power and volume rocker.
i bought nillkin mobile skin case clear black, it's not slippery, but too bad the power button and volume rocker are hidden, and when i tried to push power button, i often find myself accidentally push the volume rocker on the other side.
It provides more grip than no case, but less grip than silicone which personally is good. I think its perfect.

thanks for the information. very tempted to buy one when my 3rd galaxy nexus replacement arrive some time next week.
just bought momax icase pro black for galaxy nexus today. lol, it looks cool. i hope there's a matter version for the outside tpu soft case would make this case perfect!
it catches finger print very easily on the glossy tpu material outside, but what the hell.
update: the glossy tpu really fingerprint proof indeed. not slippery and ease of use in and out jean pocket. like it like a lot!
Wow, i really like this case, great build! Cheaper than SGP, much better than Nillkin Mobile Skin Case Clear Black.
It has thicker lips too which protect more glass surface on front, sometimes it hinders my finger to navigate the cursor to the edge of the screen when typing. Some people appreciates the thin lips on SGP Ultra Hybrid though.
The stock screenguard is a clear one, fingerprint and oil magnet for sure!
update info on momax icase pro for galaxy nexus i9250 black, i can confirm that this case is compatible with samsung official extended battery 2000mah. fits perfectly in hand, adds build quality perception 'cause of the added minimal weight on it.

Hi guys, I just got my GNex a couple of days ago, and coming from an SE X10, I feel like the X10 is a toy. I was browsing through eBay earlier and found two very similar cases, the SGP Neo Hybrid and SGP Ultra Hybrid (NOT Ultra Capsule!). These cases are very very similar, and like the name suggests, are both hybrid cases. The only difference I can spot from pictures are the colors available and the material finish. The Ultra Hybrid seems to have a more matte finish, which I generally prefer than the Glossy high quality look (but would wear off soon) of the Neo Hybrid series. The Ultra Hybrid is also about $5 cheaper, so I would be more inclined to getting this one. I'm wondering if anyone has tried both cases out and did a comparison, cuz if I have heard great things about the Neo Hybrid but can't really find anything on the Ultra Hybrid at all. Any suggestions??
Here are the eBay links:
Neo Hybrid: http://www.ebay.ca/itm/Google-Samsu...ccessories&hash=item4ab30bf76f#ht_5140wt_1110
Ultra Hybrid: http://www.ebay.ca/itm/Google-Samsu...ccessories&hash=item33714e1892#ht_5934wt_1110
I just ordered the Ultra Hybrid from Amazon, from the pictures i also think that other than the different colors, the only thing diferent between the two models is that the polycarbonate frame is matte on the Ultra and glossy on the Neo... Well, i guess that soon ill find out.
i dont think so, the ultra capsule a single tpu layer and the neo hybrid is a silicone layer with a polycarbonate layer

You're confusing the Ultra Capsule and the Ultra Hybrid.
From SGP's website:
http://www.spigen.com/cell-phone/google/galaxy-nexus/sgp-samsung-galaxy-nexus-case-ultra-hybrid-series.html said:
SGP Ultra Hybrid Case is combination of a Poly-Carbonate hard case and a Poly-Urethane soft cover. The soft Poly-Urethane is designed to protect the Galaxy Nexus from scratches and the hard Poly-Carbonate frame prevents dirt and dust from entering the case as well as protects your phone from damage.
The Ultra Hybrid Case for the Galaxy Nexus features a slim and simplistic design for easy installation and removal. In addition, the Poly-Urethane frame is slightly higher than the device's screen so that when placed face down, the LCD does not come in contact with the surface.

Let us know what the actual case is like! ...from what I understand from the other Ultra Hybrid case videos, its a one piece case so you snap the phone on, rather than a two piece case of the Neo Hybrid. But I can't confirm this either. Anyway, I'm probably gonna end up ordering the White Neo Hybrid, I don't really like the glossy finish, but I still think the case is pretty awesome thanks for all the replies!
just boght a white ultra hybrid case. I'm hoping it's smaller than neo hybrid. I'll update when I receive it.

Somehow I doubt it will be thinner than a pure TPU case like Ultra Capsule. There doesn't seem to be any functional advantages to the Hybrid over the Capsule. Only thing new here is the color combinations.
Do either of these work on the Verizon Nexus?

Changed my order. I'm buying neo hybrid instead.
With longer lips of neo I can better use dry screen protectors and neo works well with extended battery.
plus I couldn't find any video review of ultra hybrid.
SGP Ultra Hybrid Case
I ordered the white/gray Ultra Hybrid case by SGP on January 30 and just received it in the mail today. Here are my thoughts, which are admittedly made after less than an hour of use:
- The matte white part on the back is very nice to the touch and feels pretty durable, but I'm worried about it staining because there is no glossy coating. Don't get me wrong; I prefer that it's matte. I just don't want it to stain. So far it's squeaky clean, though!
- The gray parts on the sides (the TPU portion) are a little loose on the sides (it's very minute, only really noticeable on the left side near the volume buttons).
- The power button triggers much more easily and is prone to accidental presses with this case on. I wish they would have just provided cutouts like on the Diztronic Rev. 3.
- The cutouts for the ports on the bottom are symmetric and fit well with plenty of room for bigger plugs.
- There was minimal "flash" (the little strands of extraneous plastic). Just pulled a loose piece off next to the camera cutout and it was just about perfect besides that.
- I like that it does provide a bit of a lip around the bezel of the phone, for setting it down face-down.
Overall I'm pretty happy with this case, though I do wish the fit was a little bit better near the volume buttons. If I had to predict a potential dealbreaker for this phone, it might be the power button issue, as I could see it triggering a lot in a person's pocket and reducing their battery life as a result of the screen being on more often. I'll probably end up keeping it on my Galaxy Nexus for awhile, but I am admittedly already looking into cases with cutouts for the side buttons. Hope this short review helps anyone that is interested; feel free to message me or reply if you have questions.
FYI I'm using a GSM Galaxy Nexus with the stock battery.

Hey thanks for the review! If you have time, do you think you could post some photos with the case on ? I'm thinking about picking the ultra hybrid up, I don't see the neo hybrid on the website anymore.
Pictures of Ultra Hybrid case
Here are a couple pictures of the case on my phone. Sorry for the poor quality of the pics; the lighting in my house was not great today. Again, FYI I'm using a GSM Nexus with the stock battery.
So, it looks like the Neo Hybrid case is off SGP's website so is the Ultra Hybrid a replacement? They seem pretty damn similar...

Seems like many people are still confused between Ultra Hybrid and Ultra Capsule - people, just to clarify, these two cases totally different. The "Ultra Capsule" is, from what I understand, a TPU soft case, while the "Ultra Hybrid", like the name suggests, is a mix between soft and hard case but its ONE piece case with matte back, unlike the "Neo Hybrid" which is a TWO piece hybrid case with glossy back and super rad colors.
So, in summary:
Ultra Capsule: Soft TPU, One piece
Ultra Hybrid: Soft interior, hard exterior, One piece, Matte colors
Neo Hybrid: Soft interior, hard exterior, Two piece, Glossy rad colors
Hopefully now we're all clear. And thanks for the Ultra Hybrid review and pictures, its hard to find any reviews of this case. Once I receive my Neo Hybrid, I'll do a quick review too. Hopefully it looks as good as your case

i'm pretty sure it doesnt, according to the website it says its not compatible with the LTE version, in big red flashy description.
Yep, it does work on the VZW Nexus. You cannot use the extended battery in it but it does fit the standard.
So...I just got my Soul Black Neo Hybrid case today on the mail and I'm pretty freakin' happy with it! Like I said, this is a two part case which comes with a soft plastic interior and hard plastic exterior case and I got to say, this stuff feels premium! I wish the case would fit my GNex a little tighter but I think thats my opinion cuz once the case is on, it's pretty hard to take it off. That being said, the case adds pretty much no bulk to my GNex, doesn't make it bigger or heavier by much at all. It has a 'lip' which will keep your screen of any surface if you're putting the phone face down which is a pretty nice feature. ONE MAJOR COMPLAIN I have with this case is, I couldn't fit my damn charger cable! the cutout hole on the harder case was too small and it kept pushing out my cable when I want to charge it. I was pretty upset at first but I tried scraping the sides of the hole with an X-Acto knife and in the end I was able to fit the charger in the MicroUSB port. I was disappointed by this, coming from SGP, but it could be that my case is flawed as well.
All in all, I would recommend this case to anyone. I got the Soul Black color, and I don't usually like glossy finish but I gotta say, my GNex looks pretty sweet. If you are handy with tools, you'll have no problem fixing this case up. I am very pleased with it and I'm sure most of you will be too! If you're interested in getting this case on eBay, I really recommend this guy:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/320830298236?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649
I got mine in two weeks when it's suppose to take 3-6 weeks. Great communication and shipping is paid for as well, what more can you ask for?
Hope this was helpful!
Anyone else noticing the charger issue..?
Hey guys,
Got my hands on the Neo Hybrid from SGP, this is a 2-piece hybrid style case that is unique from others as it features a plastic bumper instead of a shell. This allows for a much thinner overall form factor and different look. This is one sleek and stylish case! Although it doesn't provide much protection, it is a pleasure to use and surely to attract some looks! You can check it out completely in the video below;
not a fan of the case but good review
not a bad case, wouldn't mind adding it to my collection of auxiliary cases. where can it be purchased?

Not the most protective but the only case that keeps the beautiful shape of the galaxy nexus. I would dare say it makes it look better. Don't know how they came up with it but its amazing. Someone noted that the silicone can sag after a bit but I don't think it will be as big of a problem with the design of it for this case. The rim will be snug... only chance of sagging could be the camera hole in the back.
My only regret after getting the matte silver is not also getting the black and reventon yellow as well!

I just noticed that, weird. With regards to the Neo and Ultra Hybrids, the Neo Hybrid has a silicone inner layer and a polycarbonate bumper (comes in 2 pieces). Whereas the Ultra Hybrid has a TPU rim with a polycarbonate backing and is a 1 piece case.
I know there are a few other Spigen Neo Hybrid threads out there, but I wanted to put my take on it and not have it buried in another thread. I have done this in the past and it was a pain to search for it to refer it to others lol.
I got the Neo Hybrid in today and the quality is really great. My other Spigen is the Ultra Hybrid, but to me the Neo Hybrid seems a bit more polished. The Neo Hybrid when installed does make the phone wider, and as a result the Seidio Dilex holster for the Nexus 5 was just able to holster this bad boy. Overall I love the design and is more of a middle of the road in rugged case designs. The tpu and then the "fram" is like a polished plastic. Both power and volume rockers are covered with this design which I actually prefer because if it had cut outs, I would be fishing for the buttons. The feedback is nice and no issues there.
All the openings are spot on. The front face has a good size lip so you can place the phone on it's face without worry. The back's camera lens is recessed into the case so that side is also taken care of. Also when installing, I was worried that my screen protector may rise up. Thankfully it did not lol. My next concern was that of taking the case off. I review a lot of cases and I take on a new case almost every week lol. However, but peeling up on the upper right corner of the phone (where the light sensors are) and peel back the tpu part of the lip of the Neo Hybrid, you are able to free the N5 like a banana lol.
IMO, this is a great case for the user that drops their phone constantly, but not at a great height. I mean it may take it like a champ, but I am not willing to "test" that out for you lol.
I also stated that with the Neo Hybrid installed, the phone now just barely fits in the Seidio Dilex holster. BUT it fits lol.
And because of the great thread that I came across had the brilliant idea of putting a dbrand skin on the back of this Neo Hybrid, I did the same! Because the camera and flash cut outs are the same as the phone, installation was a breeze. I had to readjust it twice! And better yet, no hair dryer needed because of the flat surface compared to the curved nature of the back of the Nexus 5.
Installed the white CF and matched up with the white cf I already have on. The threading of the CF is so exact, even the replacement one followed the pattern, big props for dbrand there as well!
Pros:
Comes in different colors to suit any palette
Makes the phone more durable IMO than naked.
Ability to add the dbrand back skins like a boss!
For me the spigen screen protector stayed on.
(Without dbrand skin, the matte backing did not attract fingerprints)
Fits in the Seidio Dilex Holster for Nexus 5 (JUST BARELY)
Wireless charging still works (tested on Nexus Wireless charger and Nexus Orb charger, I am sure it'll work on the Tylt Vu as well)
NFC works as well.
Cons:
Makes the N5 WIDE like a bumper
BARELY fits in my Seidio Dilex Holster for Nexus 5
A bit hard to take out of the case
Can I recommend it? Yes. I think this case is ideal for the person who drops their phone constantly. I am not talking about 5 foot drops, just drops from ones pocket or jacket and such.
You can buy these directly through Spigen via Amazon or Ebay (in the US anyways)
Pics below, shoot me any questions if needed.

You can pay me by sending me the multicolored X when they come out lol.
Thanks all. This dbrand backing is not my idea. It was conceived in one of the Neo Hybrid threads. It made perfect sense! Because all the other cases had the larger opening of the camera and flash and one would have to carefully cut it and wrap it in. It worked, but not to my liking lol. This combo is just friggin awesome.
Looks awesome. Have you tried this on the Spigen Neo Ultra? Im waiting on my dbrand now to maybe give it a whirl...:good:

Are you referring to the SpigenUltra Hybrid? THere is no Neo Ultra that I am aware of. Nevertheless, the Ultra Hybrid will not work without modding the camera holes. AKA:Cut and wrap=I will do it sloppy lol
But if there is a Neo Ultra somewhere, please post a link to the back side and I can tell you if it'll work or not.

It won't work, without trimming. The skins are a bit too wide, and come up over the edges, and the button holes.

I don't have the Ultra Hybrid Crystal, but I do have the Ultra Hybrid in grey. Comparing the Ultra Hybrid to the Neo Hybrid. The Neo Hybrid is a bit wider because keep in mind there's a tpu case and then around that is the colored plastic piece which acts like a bumper in a sense. The Ultra Hybrid is just tpu on the outside and no bumper add-on.
So if you had the N4 with a LG bumper, that is how the feeling feels like. A bit wider than without. But the Ultra Hybrid is a tad narrower, so you may want that.
I am ok with the extra width. I have gotten used to it after a day of usage. Even with the tight fit when using the Seidio Holster I am still using it. I like the look of it overall as well.
i'm waiting for my dbrand... this white is beaultifull
