Anyone try a Casewise?

Hi,
Like a lot of people i'm looking for a thin, leather portfolio case with a kickstand and access to the ports. I'm not sure how i feel about the zoogue, looks bulky. The Kevikev looks like poor quality and the camera seems to be blocked. I know it may get better with time, but i just do not want to worry about hoping for a product to get better.
I checked out the Navitech, but no one has tried it yet.
I saw on eBay there's these Casewise cases that look good. I was wondering if anyone has experience with them or if there's any apparent problems that you can see.

My reservation with this case is the back where it has the little flap where you use it to create the stand. I'm worried after a lot of use it may just stick out all the time.
What do you guys think?

Meh. I have the same issues as you. I just want a nice thin folio style case that will function as a stand too. Not hard.
This one looks to be in the same vein as looks OK but not great. I don't like the hump thing on the back.

Exactly, how hard is it to get a decent thin portfolio case with a stand?

That one looks exactly like kevikev, except for the white stitch and cheap pu leather. I'd buy kevikev before this

Seidio ACTIVE - Sapphire Blue

Just ordered this case today - http://www.seidioonline.com/product-p/csk3mtatr-bl.htm
I will post back when i receive it and mess with it some, and possible post up some pics too. I know some of you have been wondering about these cases for the Atrix, and i've been wanting one anyway. So i just went ahead and ordered it, I'll give a review of it once i receive it for you guys/gals.

Wow that does look nice. Post some picture when you get it. I ordered the Motorola one but if I end up not liking it this may be another option. Its a bit expensive but I may consider it if I do not like the Motorola one.

OP do you have any docks??? Im very curious to see if this case will function in the cardock... looks sweet though. i like it better than just about everything ive seen this far.

No, i dont use any docks - at least not yet... maybe sometime in the future.. Just dont have a need for any at this point.

Wow, I just ordered the very same one yesterday! I had one of these for my Nexus S and I really liked it. It looks and feels really good on the phone and I think it is just as protective as the Otterbox Commuter case.

let me know if the silicone is very floppy i had the otterbox commuter but i hate the lose silicone i like my cases to fit and stay. i loved the switcheasy cases for iphone but the dbags only do apple products. if its not all loose and floppy ill get it otherwise im sticking with the defender

Hey.... product manufacturers tend to go where the money is.... and when everyone and their poodle has an Apple product... you can bet what their focus is going to be. Hell, i'd LOVE to see something like the Apex Armor or Vapor4 bumpers that they have for the iPhone 4 made for the Atrix.... but it won't happen. Same way seeing a battery door replacement to use with a PowerMat probably won't happen, although i'm still kinda hoping.

I got the Surface in Sapphire Blue, and if that's any indication to how good their cases are, the ACTIVE is much better. Although it adds twice the thickness to the phone as the Surface.

Galaxy nexus multiple cases

I generally like to have multiple cases for my phones. I have bought a couple of cases already without having the phone and would like to know which one you guys think is the best. These are the cases I have bought:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/37056726677...X:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649#ht_4251wt_1219
http://www.ebay.com/itm/15071254990...NX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649#ht_3081wt_986
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0067I0A04/ref=oh_o00_s00_i00_details

I havent heard many good things about the popcase that it may not provide enough protection. It looks cool though. I have the toughcase but its a dust magnet for starters and the silicone also gets in the way of my screen protector (zagg) at the corners. I have a diztronic tpu case and i like the fit of it better and its thin enough to not be too noticeable. So far i like it best but im still waiting for something better....like otterbox?

Yes, I can not wait for the otterbox. I also found a case for other phones called Sillicrylic (I think thats how you spell it) and that looks like an awesome case!

i think nude is better!

Hi, before I get my SGN i had a Desire HD with PoP case !
And I was very satisfied with it

Thank you, I just noticed that one of the ebay links is actually 7 cases, which is awesome so I can switch it out. I will let you guys know which one is best when I get them.

I have this one, and for £1.89 I think it is pretty fantastic. Looks and feels great!

Nay to all of the above
Why hide the Google design. If you look at the use of the phone, the corners are the most hit, so a bumper design is the best. the cases in this post like others I've found are thick and bulky for no real benefit.
iPhone is the best example of what we need.
"Can't paste the link as I'm too new but refer to Ebay "iPhone 4S bumper"
We need to push this design before making out pockets bulk up...

GNex Bumper case DIY
I made a simple DIY mod to turn a cheap case into a Bumper case.
Search instructibles.com for 'DIY Bumper Case for Galaxy Nexus' and it will come up.

I would like to keep my phone without a case but the fear of dropping or body wear would get under my skin.
I have a diztronic currently and I'm also ordering some cruzerlite cases.

I have a case obsession as well and have many for the Gnex. My latest is the otterbox commuter, which I really love - though its noteworthy that many people do not like this case. A good one as well is the Trident Agesis - I am waiting for this one to be release at the end of Feb.

[REVIEW][PICS]Qubits TPU Case

This case is pretty nice, I have the Diztronics Matte Case and this far superior.
EDIT: It appears I messed up with adding images, so I provided direct links to a Picasa album under the corresponding text.
First off, I'd like to point out its design.
https://picasaweb.google.com/103360287160249925033/GNexTPUCaseReviewImages#5694664838498885570
This case uses a combination of three forms of TPU.
The back uses two, and the side has the third. From the photo, the majority of the back is matte with a gloss design on the side of the back.
Now for the TPU on the actual sides on the phone:
https://picasaweb.google.com/103360287160249925033/GNexTPUCaseReviewImages#5694666212754847586
It's a nice textured form of TPU that provides a great amount of grip without making the phone impossible to slide in and out of a pocket or gather dust like silicon. It may just be that I'm fourteen, but I always found the Galaxy Nexus a bit slippery, or maybe it's because of this the darn phone gets, which looks great but isn't entirely practical.
The case itself doesn't add much to the size of the phone, but it provides decent, and very eye catching protection.
https://picasaweb.google.com/103360287160249925033/GNexTPUCaseReviewImages#5694664844600398466
The back of the case is also raised near the camera to prevent scratches that phones like the EVO were plagued with.
https://picasaweb.google.com/103360287160249925033/GNexTPUCaseReviewImages#5694666188166111906
The volume buttons get a dedicated cover, as expected, but makes them feel mushy, but they're really small to begin with.
The cutouts on the phone are pretty big and shouldn't have any issues, and there is also a double-holed thing at the bottom for lanyards.
https://picasaweb.google.com/103360287160249925033/GNexTPUCaseReviewImages#5694666177130719426
This is overall a great case, for its price its pretty hard to beat as well. You can find it here on Amazon.

Link to the buying site would be of great help bro

That looks like the cover I had on my Incredible. I liked it, especially when I cut it to fit my extended battery... hehe! Though I dont know if the material is the same.

I've had this since launch, it costed me ~£4 from ebay which I was really pleased with.
So far it has treated me well, feels good, looks pretty good and protects my phone.
I should receive the Diztronic Matte Case sometime next week, I was hoping for that to be an improvement on this! (OP doesn't think so! )

I like that. I am using the stock one from Verizon. I am still waiting for a good case, but this one is pretty nice. I want a clip too I think. However, I break clips by bumping into things

What is the stock one from Verizon? It wasn't supposed to include one, was it?

The button protectors were too stiff for my liking. It is very grippy though.

2 dollars from Ebay.

This is the only Galaxy nexus case I currently have, and boy does it get the job done for $2 from Amazon.
Almost got the cruzerlite but the price was right on Qubits.
Anyone know if I were to purchase an extended battery if it would fit with this case? Any extended batteries you'd recommend (for GSM) that won't break the bank (or my phone)

I ordered a clear one from amazon for $1.75. My old smoke TPU case was turning a bit yellow so I ordered this to replace it for a while. I'll post pics if anyone is interested.

Yeah I wouldn't mind seeing that thanks

White black duo-shield soft skin hard case

This is for the Verizon Galaxy Nexus, not the GSM Variant.
I ordered this case from the suggestion of another person on twitter and it came in the mail today. I was especially intrigued by it because he said it fit the extended battery rather well!
It turns out that it does and seems to be one of the first I have found (besides the Otterbox Series) that fits the phone with the extended battery included.
It is made of high quality materials, and isnt a lint collector in my pocket which is a big one for me. Below are a link to the pictures of the phone w/ the extended battery and the case itself.

I have this case in white/purple and loved it, but was concerned about the back getting "scratched" since the plastic part doesn't have any felt or cushioning. What are your thoughts on this? Is there any reason to be concerned in your opinion?

The plastic seems to be fairly strong, for example, it seems the coating is of high quality which makes it not easily scratch able.
For the most part I am not worried about the case being scratched and I really like it.

I was worried about the back of the phone getting scratched by the plastic part that touches it. You have noticed no scratches on your phone from this case?

I misunderstood you from before, and no I do not think that the plastic will scratch the phone in any way

Thank you for your review and your opinion! That makes me feel a bit better about using that case as it is my favorite so far. I am still looking at the Kraken (when they make one), Rearth Rinke and SGP. I also have one of those cases that look like the ballistic ones. I like it though it does make it a bit bulkier.

Just ordered the White/Green one to go with my Beats . I'm a sucker for anything Lime Green, I have been going naked on the phone, hopefully I'll like this case. Biggest thing I was worried about what being a lint magnet, good thing it isnt

You will love it. Since my issue of scratches to my phone have been eliminated, it will be my case of choice until a couple of the others come out.

Do you guys no how this compares size wise to the Otterbox's?

I don't. I would love an Otterbox if they came in the cool colors like the fruit phone.

Is it as bulky at the OtterBox Defender? Im looking to replace my defender with something slimmer

How much weight does it add?? I love how light this phone is and I'm looking for a case that doesn't add much weight
Sent from my GalaxyNexus using XDA App

anything similar for the gsm?

I also ordered this case Black/Red. I have a GSM version. The difference between the LTE/GSM is .53mm so Im thinking it'll be fine. I read a negative review about this case that discouraged me but after reading this thread im feeling a lil better. Pics look great on the SGN. Also Carbon Fiber Ghost Armor will be between my boo boo (lol) and the case so I'm not worried about the plastic scratching my phone. It also comes with a Naked Shield screen protector wich I've read is a wet application. Any thoughts on the included screen protector? Is it any good? Doubt id peel my Ghost Armor screen protector off for any other but im still interested if it's good.

It adds near 0 weight to the phone, at least it seems as if it does not which is the important part

I just got this, LOVE IT! although it does add some bulk it barely added much weight and it fits well with the extended battery with one exception, I had to remove my skin that was installed on the phone... I was a little shocked it wouldn't fit with that skin but I guess I don't need it...
