Cimo tpu case for both LTE/GSM - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Anyone purchase this case in any color? Reviews seem real good and it has cut outs for all ports. I just ordered the white on eBay for 7 bucks. I'll update if anyone is interested to know more about it. If anyone owns this case a quick review would be great. Here's the link to the amazon one so everyone can look at the case.

I've got that exact one for my LTE Nexus w/ extended battery. Fits great, adds hardly any bulk plus it provides better grip than stock.

Awesome. You got the white or black? If white, for how long? Hoping the white doesn't go a yellowish tint like I've heard other white tpus get.

White. Only had it for a week but it hasn't turned yellow yet lol.

Is the fit really that good for the LTE? Can you take some up close pics of the screen edges please?

I will once I get mine. But all the reviews on the black on amazon give it real good ratings becuz of fit and cuts. I state black but they are both identical

It fits perfect. I have a LTE with extended battery. There is a slight lip so the screen won't touch anything when you lay it face down. No idea where my camera is so I can't take any pics.

is it just me, or do these seem exactly like the Diztronic but without the branding?

This is what it seems like to be honest. The diztronic without branding. I own a matte diztronic and I like it but I've been wanting a white case. Plus the case without the branding is a plus for me.

Thanks. Would appreciate if you can also mention the "bulk" it adds compared to the diztronics. Might be exactly same bulk, less, more... whichever it is, I'm curious to know.

I have both the Diztronic rev 3 case and the white cimo case. If you set the two cases side by side, you can not tell the difference, the Cimo case just does not have the emblem that is on the back. Minus that they are virtually identical. I have the matte black case for the diztronic and i would say that both these cases are the same, jus not branding on the cimo case.

Alright so I got my case today and to me its a diztronic without the icon on the back as mentioned. The case causes a lip so if placed face down on the screen, it will be lying on the case. Side by side they seemed identical as well, diztronic and this case that is.

(Temporarily Out Of Stock) SGP Slider Vibrant! Come and get 'em!

Ok, I just happened to notice they finally have the Slider case for the Vibrant in The SGP Store.
Yesterday they still weren't up yet.
Remember, this is for the Vibrant and not just another i9000 case.
Here is the link:
http://www.sgpstore.com/index.php/cPath/23_29
I'm picking one up ASAP!
EDIT 9/2/2010: Apparently The company has run into some production problems.
That is why the cases have been delayed.
The entries have since been removed from their website.
Is that the same as the magenta one in tmobile stores?

no, it's not a silicone case.
It is a slider case.
Very nice and sleek
ARRRRG!!! theyre not in stock yet!
Edit: I ran to get my CC
Actually, T-Mobile does offer a similar case to the Slide cases mentioned, and only in the magenta color (so far, anyway).
Just for kicks, I tried it on my phone, but the plastic just seems cheap and it doesn't feel all that secure where the parts join. I would hope that the SGP ones are better quality than the no-name ones T-Mobile offers.

best looking cases for this phone imo. wish it had a little kickstand type thing. . .
Looks awesome, buying ASAP!
Title says it all
But on related note, is the included screen protector good? I was planning on ordering a realook one but hey, if this gets the job done without ruining the screen quality...
Are these glossy casses and do they provide grip? Also if they are glossy wouldn't they start to get scratched up when putting them down on hard surfaces?...anyone know?
I am dying for a white one. These are the nicest cases I have seen for the vibrant thus far.
Pretty sweet I dig them too just not sure what color...hmmm white or blue...
If they would just hurry up and get these in stock...

Anyone got one yet? Someone post a short review of fitment. Hoping that the case fits well and stays intact unlike some other ones with similar install style.
I hope this version doesn't have a cutout for the antenna.
The pics definitely have the antenna cutout. Hopefully these are just sample pics.

Hope you can do a little review once you get it.
Those Ultra Silke silicone cases look quite nice, especially if their claims of them not being sticky/tacky are true.
these need to come out like NOW!

**pics included** Black Cruzer Case on Amazon fits GSM perfect

I got the black glossy Cruzer case from Amazon and it fits snug and tight...better than my Incipio case I purchased from the Verizon store. The case is nice and durable. The power button and 3 prongs are open and the volume keys are closed with a nice rough texture. The volume keys are very easy to use since they are sealed. I recommend this case to GSM Galaxy Nexus owners and the price is not bad at all.
I gave it a 5 star review on Amazon.
Here is a link...
Check out the other designs Cruzer has... Android print case looks pretty cool too.

How is the fit and finish, for lack of a better term, of the case? How tightly does it fit around the face and how are the areas around the mold seam?
I'm currently using this Qubits case and while it is quite good, it is not perfect.

Anyone going to pull the trigger on the SGP Modello Case?

Anyone going to pull the trigger on the SGP Modello Case? Appears as it was just released and at a pretty good price ($14.99).
Edges of the phone do not appear to be complete covered in their press shot pictures, but it looks thin and of high quality--used the ultra capsule on the i9100.

Black is good, but I'm bored with it.
If someone gets this case and has a full screen protector like Zagg/Best Skins Ever/Skinomi, please post if this case causes the edge to peel.
I really like my Skinomi Techskin, but my TPU case causes it to peel at the edges.

Come on Google... It's basically a Ringke Slim or Spigen Ultra Fit for more than 3x the price. You could of at least slapped on the Nexus branding.

I actually prefer the Google branding. I don't think I'll ever encounter another person in real life who will know what "Nexus" refers to. Anyways, these cases look to resemble the crappy Spigen/Ringke hard cases, and not the incredible sandpaper ones on eBay. We'll have to see who decides to drop $30 and put up a review.
Looks too similar to the lg thin cases. I'm surprised they'd even put these out.

Only thing is that the LG Hardshell protects more, the top is not covered at all with this case and the bottom is also less covered. I don't understand why they try to sell this product for more money with less protection/functionality. Must be a mistake

I bought the older black Google Nexus 5 OEM case with the "Nexus" logo on the back. I got it on eBay for last week for like $14.00, but it kinda sucks. I shouldn't say it sucks, but definitely not my style of case. I prefer as minimal as possible, where this case has much more bulk and a thicker lip that goes over the glass. Another thing I don't like is the volume & power buttons are covered. They aren't too hard to press, but it's different for sure. I knew I should have bought the LG minimal case. I really liked the pictures and reviews. I got caught up in wanting the "Nexus" logo on the back. I was blinded!
