Having a tough time deciding on a case

I thought about getting the ballistic case, but I honestly don't need something that big unless I'm out in the field in the military, and for those I don't bring my tablets, the phone is good enough
now I'm looking at the slim cases just for basic protection and I have found a few
Here are my choices -
AYL® High Quality Slim Leather Case Folio
This one is nice, but no prime on amazon (I like to use that feature for fast free shipping and get my money's worth lol) but I think the ratings are skewed because the company sends you a stylus pen if you write a positive review... so everyone is rating the damn thing a 5 star. it's ridiculous and I can't trust the reviews on that thing because of it...
Body Glove Moto Xoom Phantom Case
It's an inexpensive case that seems ok like a not as tough ballistic case, but no screen cover which I kind of want (and no tablet stand)
Acase Slim Leather Folio Case
This thing seems identical to the AYL and I can't tell a damn difference, and it has prime. some people said it doesn't stay put when you have it on tilt while you type though...
rooCASE Executive Portfolio (Black) Leather Case Cover
Now I really like this one and it looks professional but no stand for it, so I don't know about that...
Snugg Motorola Xoom Case Cover and Flip Stand
Just a very sleek nice looking case, I love that white sticthing

I just bought the rooCase and it's nice...a bit bulky, not really slim, unless you use the inner sleeve by itself, but it's very protective and the case doubles as a stand. It's like carrying around a rather thick agenda, with all the pros and cons of that.

AYL CASE
Got the AYL case 2 weeks ago, did not receive that Stylus promotion though.
Overall I would give it a 4.5/5 as its all good except that the top is closed just by pure pressie, so I'm afraid after constant usage the stitching will start to give out.
I would recommend it though. Solid case.

How about that acase slim? it looks identical...
that roocase I think is bit too much for what I want it.

I'd say go with the AYL case... it looks nearly identical, to the carbon fiber folio case from kevikev:

I've had the kevikev case for about 6 months now, and I absolutely love it. I haven't even thought about another case. I notice the AYL case has a cutout for charging and ports too which is nice.

I love that case. The CF look is real nice too, I might go for that case when it's in stock. Shame not on amazon

I do not have any of those cases, I have a zoogue, but I could not use a case without a stand. No stand narrows your choices a bit.

$44 in Amazon, kinda expensive... but it does look really good.

I also tried the flip case, it looks sloppy at best, and doesn't protect the metal rims. I decided to go with a simple silicone case and a cheap screen protector. (it's on its way to me)

I tried a matte screen protector, but it was sparkling too much I couldn't use it.
I also tried this case:

but this one was a fake. I'm using this until I get the silicone case delivered. Wife says my phone looks like a couple years old crap phone with this case.

It looks great. Thanks for sharing.

So you have a case, over a case?
Lots of protection there.

Well the flip cover provides zero protection but looks nice lol. Then add in the belkin caseand you got yourself a nicely protected case.

Lmao yes i have "case with in a case" Just a bit of inception going on...
But yeah the flip case protects your screen so you dont have to put a nasty screen protector on it. The belkin is a very thin hardcase that protects the back and sides of the phone.

Looks nice. On the fence about the flip lid case. I typically go bare with my phones.

I own it, but I didn't review it like I normally do. Not sure why. The case is a very good case for a 20 dollar case. It's basically a bugdroid tpu hot glued into a wallet case. It's a bit bulky, but the majority of that is the tpu case itself. The case is a smart case and the clasp is nice and strong. However the clasp is a bit of annoyance to me because it sits awkwardly on my wireless chargers. The best qi charger I have to use it with is the Tylt Vu because it can accommodate landscape charging. The orb barely holds on and it just sits crooked because of the clasp. I'll sell it to you if you want. I have the whitish/black version.
From this wallet case, I went onto the Rock Slim Elegant case. VERY thin. Think of it as the Poetic Palette with a flip attached to it via hinge. Very slim compared to the Cruzerlite, but not as much overall protection. Plus the front flap doesn't stay closed, but I have it in my pocket anyway. Needless to say it works with wireless charging like a champ. However, not a smart case. No magnets on this case. I would say this would be the minimalist flip case. No card pockets here.
And then I found what I initially thought was the perfect slim wallet type case; the Seidio Ledger. I have come across an issue with what Seidio calls the soft touch on the case that holds the phone. While it feels like pure butter in your hand, my two cases resulted in the soft touch material rubbing off on various parts of the case. I have been working with Seidio for the past week and seeing if there is a fix for it. So the jury is out on it. I love it, it has a cut out for the LED, no other flip case I know of has this, the kickstand, not needed but nice to have, has a smart cover and the metal kickstand is not THAT obtrusive when placing in my various wireless qi chargers. I have the Tylt Vu, Nexus Wireless charger and the Nexus orb charger.

Nillkin Fruit/Fresh: Reviews?

Hey guys, I'll make this short and sweet. I've been looking around the boards for a few weeks for a simple flip cover that wont break the bank or damage my phone.
All I need is a good fit, earpiece hole and sleep/wake function (not spending $50 on the official LG flip cover though)
I came across this one on amazon:
http://www.amazon.ca/Nillkin-Fruit-...2338300&sr=8-1&keywords=Nexus+5+Nillkin+fruit
I haven't seen any reviews of this case other than a single sentence saying they didn't like the thickness and it is only one person's opinion.
Has anyone else had experience with this case? I'm mostly concerned about the polycarbonate inside scratching the corners of my Nexus.
Any input on this case is appreciated, but I am also open to other suggestions for cases that meet the above criteria.
Thank you!

I just got this in the mail today. Only $7.99 shipped from this seller:

I've always liked Nillkin products. Good quality stuff. This case is no exception. I got the black one. The case is a glossy polycarbonate. Fairly thick. It's a gunmetal metallic color. The flip cover is a sturdy leather like cover. The magnetic closure works really well. Sleep/Wake works great. The design of the magnetic closure reminds me of the great Poetic cases for tablets. The entire case gives the phone some weight and a very premium feel and look. Wireless charging works fine with the case on. I think it's better than the LG case and for only $7.99!

Hello
The serial number of the Nillkin Fresh Fruit can be used on a single device? I've first tested the case on my phone but now I want to use it on another phone. On the second phone it does not accept the serial number. What can I do ?
