Okay, sounds dumb, I hate carrying a wallet. Discovered that I can very easily put my debit card behind the back cover of the phone and the case.
Yeah... Basic I know, but perhaps others haven't thought of it.
Very good idea actually.. Are you talking about the gel case?
Have you seen the cases designed for this as well, i saw a few on Ebay that had the debit card slot but they were leather. Pretty cool!
^^ yeah, the black one that was the only option at release.
^ got a link, that sounds pretty awesome!
Good call, I tuck one of those lint free cloths behind mine for the occasional screen cleaning

I bet you're looking for a case like this one for the iPhone.

Unfortunately, there are none like it for the Vibrant as far as from what I can tell by searching.

Awesome idea. Now when I palm your phone at the bar, I can get your card too. lol
I liked to see someone take my phone... they would be better off punching my mom in the face.
losing your phone would be exponentially gayer though

Just got mine, I just bought the samsung dock, so probably will go caseless, so figured this would come in handy. Ill let you all know after I get it.
just order this:
http://pdair.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=11000659_11001165_11001166&products_id=32373
any reviews?
guess not mehhhh, hope its nice. Saw some on Ebay for like 1/2 the price, I wonder if they are fake
PDAir stuff looks really nice, but is a little too expensive for me. Check out the shipping charges for the ebay ones, with shipping included they weren't much cheaper last time I looked.
Yeah, I can't justify the cost of that.
A friend of mine owes me a large sum of money from some sports betting. He sucks at giving me cash, but bought my Xoom for me and allows me to spend $$ on his paypal account, thats why I splurged, lol

Splurge and get us all hookers?
So far this is the best looking case I have seen. I sent an email to them asking for a picture of it in a "typing angle" but haven't gotten a response. I can see how the typing angle works on the version 1 but I'm not sure on the version 2.
If anyone here has this case maybe you can post a pic of the different angles not shown on the vendor website.

i can when mine comes, next week i hope
I am also interested in seeing more pics of the PDair. This is easily the best case I have seen (maybe the Zenus ones will be nice, but they are taking their time).
If the design is similar to others like kevikev case, then I would go for kevikev case ..
Would be interested if you have to insert your xoom upside down like kevikev or they invent a better idea !!
Upside down is a showstopper as I haven't found a DLNA-compatible video player that rotates when the XOOM is upside down.

Whether you have it propped up in the landscape veiwing angle, or propped in the landscape typing angle, the screen remains with the vrz logo on top. I have only used it a little so far, but have not had a situation where I had to view the screen with vrz logo on the bottom. You do have to have the case open to access the charging port though. Or you can just insert the xoom upside down in order to expose the charging port while the case is closed. I think overall it was designed pretty well.

I know that this topic has been discussed before so sorry for a repeat thread but has anyone discovered a bumper case yet for our phone or perhaps tried out a case for a different phone that fits ours?
Perhaps if we get enough people we can contact sgp about making their neo hybrid ex case for the e4gt..

Ebay does in fact have bumper cases, but none with an open back.
Modifying (cutting out the back) the existing ones from what I understand makes the surrounding edges loose.
their are a bunch on ebay that do have the back cut out cant remember who the seller/manufacturer is though. I think this is one http://www.ebay.com/itm/Smoke-Black...ccessories&hash=item35b7e3ef5a#ht_4330wt_1185

I've got three of these (there as cheap as 3.50 shipped if you dig), the green/clear, black/clear and a frost/frost. I've got a white/clear on the way for my white ET4G. I like them personally. Not exactly like the iPhone bumper cases but close enough.
Pictures speak volumes. Can take more if wanted/needed of the other colors.

That case looks amazing. Just what I was looking for. But when I search on Ebay all of them have a back to them, it seems like your case is the bumper only. I can't find one like yours anywhere on Ebay. Help please

Seems fine to me, then again I've only had my ET4G since 1/8 and I came from an Evo with a tumor (extended battery) so ANYTHING would seem thin to me.

I'm at work which blocks ebay links but most of the links in this thread point to a version of the case I have. When I get home later (or my notebook at lunch) I can post a link to the exact auction for my green case.
So is that the one with the clear back? If so you can't even tell, it looks like it has an open back.

It is the one with the clear back. I'll get a picture of it off the phone to hopefully capture better how clear it is. In person you can tell its there but IMHO it looks very nice and clean.
Here is a link to the green bumper case I have pictured.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEON-GREEN-...NG-EPIC-4G-TOUCH-D710-PROTECTOR-/400250640556
The attached hopefully gives a better idea of how "clear" the back plastic is. I personally like the added protection for the camera went setting the phone down on a table.
Can you take pictures of the sides please I want to see how it covers the volume and power buttons.
Hope these help, kind of hard to get decent pictures that close without a macro lens.
I should mention that I personally have no trouble with button usage on this case. Though truth be told I've had this type of case on my phone since I walked out of the Sprint store with it.

What are the odds that I could remove the back of it without compromising the integrity of it?? In your opinion..

I honestly have no idea.
Totally taking a guess I FEEL it would loose quite a bit of integrity. While the back is sturdy I can bend it if pushed hard enough. The TPU/Gel/Candy 'bumper' i feel wouldn't have anything to pull it back together and would likely loose shape over time. Then again that whole last bit is my opinion and me more or less talking out my ass. For about or less than 4 bucks shipped I'd say its worth ordering one and giving it a shot if you're really curious about it.
Good luck!

Thank-you. I'm gonna order a black one.
I was torn on posting this in the accessories or the Q&A area, but, here goes.
We have an "exciting" new accessory for the Note. Now you can legally work
"hands free" in your car or office, without using a bluetooth, or wired headset!
Saw this on TV, so it must be a good one. And, act now, and you'll get TWO for the price of ONE (just pay separate process & handling of course)
It can even hold the weight of a FIVE POUND laptop! Wow! You can "hands free" your laptop to your ear! Cool!!
(If you don't understand humor, that is what I think of this)
LOL...probably only works with the iJunk, since our phones have a textured
back hahaha.
https://www.gojohandsfree.com/
hahahahaha.....is a good idea....i would buy this lol=))
You've shown the deluxe model, you should have given us an option for the cheaper model, picture attached. LOL
Maybe that is the "standard" model for phones other than iJunk LOL.

Imagine the Note stuck up on your face with that
Armor plated cheek FTW!!
Hm...you still need to pick up and answer your phone before attaching that thing and that is still illegal when driving in The Netherlands.
It still looks like a smart design though
LMAO ... nice accessory it really compliments the NOTE's size
Btw, muslim women have this feature built-in, I've seen them tucking it inside their scarf/burqos.
LMAO.. holy hell...

Got my nexus today and the official quick cover I ordered came with it too, even though the order indicated part dispatch. I had assumed this meant the case had been delayed.
Have to say it is a very nice case, feels great, nice snug fit and it is really thin. While it is still bedding in the front flap is lifting slightly when closed (see pic) but I am sure this will give a bit in the next few day's.
Not worth £35!!!!! But it is a nice case. If the spigen one is as nicely made (seem to be looking at pics and reviews) then it will make them a bargain
Nice, but I REALLY miss the Nexus sign from the back...

Was in new gadget blindness mode and didn't really think about the cost, at £35 it is a bit too much.
I reckon at that price the hole punch cut out for the notification light should go for about £4 on eBay

You had me going there for a moment - I had to reach all the way past my keyboard at work to test your theory.
Phew, I am not an idiot after all, although most of my daily actions would prove otherwise, LGoogle have forgotten to poke a hole in their case!
I will have to ring them and see if they can mail me a hole upgrade? If the makers of polo mints can remember to put holes in their products, I don't see why LGoogle can't
What do you think Google will charge me for postage on a hole?
I really like it but to bad the nexus logo on the back is lost
Id love to get this but losing the nexus logo is a no go for me. I think ill just buy a real bumper.
Does that mean that the front flap isn't magnetized? I'd heard it was and that when you open it, it unlocks your screen.
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
I have the case as well myself. The flap IS magnetised. The magnet is actually located above the volume buttons, so that when closed the magnet touches the screen glass over the volume buttons.
And I agree, while the case is nice, it definitely isn't worth £35, more like £15 and that's pushing it.

Ok...how did you guys get the case? When I look in the Google Play store, it says "coming soon". I'm in Canada (eh?) and never have any issue purchasing other stuff. I got the white Nexus 5 and thought the white flipcase would look SIC!!!
I received my Quick Cover with my Nexus 5 on Monday. First time I have used a case like this and I must say I am impressed. It feels premium (perhaps not £35 premium) and does not add as much bulk to the phone as I expected.
I for one am glad it has no notification light hole as the light used to wake me in the night on my bedside table.
One question to any other owners, is the rear too thick for wireless charging to work?

Pretty sure wireless charging is fine with this case, think I read it somewhere?
I am sure LGoogle wouldn't overlook this, especially considering they are releasing a charger for the nexus devices too.

What happens if the flap is closed, you receive an incoming call and open the flap? Does that automatically answer the call? What happens to a call when you close the flap?
Thanks for your feedback.

Opening the flip just turns on the screen. All it does is it saves your pressing the power button. You still have to swipe to unlock if you have it turned on, still have to enter your unlock code etc. When there's an incoming call, after opening the flip you still have to swipe to answer/reject/silence the call. And closing the flip doesn't end calls either, it just turns off the display, or the speaker hole on the flip would be pointless.
