kickstand case??

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=8091859&postcount=4
can anyone tell me if this case will work with the vibrant. if not, where can i find a kickstand case, other than the bodyglove brand.

Bodyglove has a cool case that has a kickstand. It's around 20-25
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App

i have both the black mesh kickstand as well as the bodyglove. they both fit and work. the mesh kickstand may not be the top choice of some vibrant owners because it does not protect/cover the borders of the front glass/face of the vibrant as most cases do. i've had problems with the bodyglove case as it appears to be scratching the back case of my vibrant. i had the same exact issue on bodyglove case with kickstand on my hd2.
.
i let my sister have my bodyglove case. i actually didn't have a problem with the weaknesses of the black mesh case since the makers of it actually put some soft padding within the case to prevent scratches on the battery/back cover of the vibrant.

I think that seller was selling 3 diff colors; black, white, and pink(?). I bought the black one 3 wks ago and recieved it about a wk ago. Initially, I thought that it was going to be shiny hard plastic case but to my pleasant surprise, it wasn't. The exterior is covered in a thin layer of hard rubber, covering the black hard shiny plastic underneath, while the inside of it is slightly padded. It looks a lot better in person than in pics.
Is the kickstand serving its purpose? Hell yea, it is...it makes watching movies on my dope SAMOLED screen that much more awesome The hard rubber makes for a good grip so it won't easily slip out of your palms like it sometimes would w/out it and it gives the phone an overall slick/cool (IMO) look. The only downside so far is that I'm getting some very small worn out spots where the hard rubber has rubbed off but it's not a big deal though.
Pics or it didn't happen, you say? Well, check 'em out !

Actually one of the better looking TPU cases IMO...
How's the fit seem overall? From the pics it looks great.
I may just pick one up..

Doesn't look very "ultra-thin".

Just a warning, if this is one of those cases with a diamond sort of "embossed" pattern on the inside, you have to be careful to clean dust from the inside, or it'll end up scratching the back of your phone.

Like most TPU and other cases, even the high end expensive ones, dust, lint, sand, soot will get in and eventually may cause scratching. I would assume most people take the time to clean and maintain their devices' appearance and or avoid being sandy, sooty, linty and dusty
Besides, the back will get scratches without anything protecting it as well.. I am waiting for delivery of the backs to my full body protection from XtremeGUARD. (ebay has them for $4 delivered http://www.ebay.com/itm/XtremeGuard...ccessories&hash=item35bcdc39ee#ht_3731wt_1270)

I found these much cheaper, at less than $2 delivered, but can not say if those will be the same as this one.
Here is the ebay link to the other ones, he has some other interesting cases as well, IMHO super cheap. http://stores.ebay.com/E-ChainStore/_i.html?_nkw=s3&submit=Search&_sid=1033895339
As you can see in the pictures above, it is very snug tight form fitting all the cut outs match perfectly and it actually covers the volume rocker and power button. At $4 delivered it is as good if not better than the Diztronic of similar design costing $10+ pictured below.

This is true, but in comparison with other TPU cases, this one as you can see is fairly thin and still offers good bump drop protection.

Silicone/polycarbonate hybrid case review

http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_n...d+Phone+Protector+Case+for+LG+Optimus+G+LS970
Looks like a different version of the generic hybrid kickstand case that's been available for a few weeks.
Anyone wanna be the guinea pig and order one and post a review? :fingers-crossed:
Edit: Ordered one, see below for review

Bought the case since the green/black one is like $8 shipped. Here's my review
The cause is actually designed for AT&T version (E970), but somehow it fits our LS970 as well.
The Good
- quality seems slightly better than the other case (the one with the kick stand). The silicone is firmer and less sticky, seam from the injection molding is less noticeable.
- fits Sprint version of LGOG, all the ports line up
- looks much better than the kick stand case (IMO)
The Bad
- pretty big, probably the same size as the otterbox, maybe double the thickness of the phone
- fit's not perfect. The top of the silicone skin is slightly pushed up by the size difference, there's a gaping hole on the left side (for microSD/sim card), and the polycarbonate shell covers just the top of the camera lens (doesn't affect pictures taken though)
- the buttons are a bit hard to push, which can be a good or bad thing depends on your preference
Overall
I will probably end up returning it, it's not much better than the kick stand case and I know the fact that everything not fitting perfectly will bother me down the line. But if you want a cheap otterbox alternative this is not bad.

Not bad! Actually looks like a trident case
Sent from my LG-LS970 using xda premium

I think the kick stand case looks more like Trident, since they usually have their logo in a cutout in the back of the case. The whole green/black color combo does look very Trident though.

That is weird that it fits if it is made for the E970. Since our device and theirs is a different build. But looks really nice, may give it a shot.

The difference is minimal (5.19" x 2.71" & 5.12" x 2.82") and the silicone skin gives enough room to make it fit I guess.

Poetic Case Review with pics

I have been searching for a slim case that added no bulk to my sleek nexus 5. I looked at Ringke, Spigen but all the reviews on amazon said they damaged the phone corners. I was going to settle for a soft TPU case when I stumbled across this. Poetic sand black case for nexus 5. Even better it was 4.95 with free prime shipping. I figured I would take a shot since I know a lot of people like the poetic cases.
I must say I really do love the case. the cut outs for the buttons are nice, the top and bottom are exposed fully rather than cutouts but the case extends a bit past the ends so they would be somewhat protected on a drop. The case fits like a glove but I have had it on and off a few times and so far no damage to the corners. It adds almost no bulk, infact it makes the phone that much better for me. The sand texture on the case makes it really grippy. It does not slide around in my coat pocket, It feels really nice in my hand, almost like a coated textured metal. It extends far enough that if I flip the phone the glass does not touch the table and the camera lens does not poke out past the back.
Short of a bumper case, which I was not too crazy about this is probably the best case I have seen so far for the N5.

How difficult is it to take off the case? It seems more or less like a SLIM case but instead of using the texture on SLIM it uses sand.

Should've done a forum search. I did a review on the same case about a week and half ago, mang.

More reviews the merrier. OP isn't asking, hes doing his own review.

Decent case but find it unbranded as "quicksand" on ebay for $1-3. Sit back and wait 3 weeks for it to arrive though.

Sorry wrong thread

Here are the pics of the Zizo case...fits nice and snug...feels really durable...not too sure about the tempered glass, seems like its not sticking on the the edges--it does have almost full coverage minus the camera...maybe thats why its NOT sticking well..

How do you like the Spigen?

I love it...provides good protection and feels great in the hands...very thin as well

Using spigen, is it hard to press on volume buttons?

No issues with the volume button...

I have the Zizo case as well. I don't like it. First person to PM me can have it. I'll ship it this Saturday and pay shipping to you.
*Tempered glass not included

My Zizo case came yesterday. I don't think I like it. It's ok but I like my cheap pink one better.
(this one) http://forum.xda-developers.com/v20/accessories/cheap-case-t3489690/page1
I got the green/clear Zizo. I don't like the way the clear tpu sticks to the back (that wet look) and the green color wasn't as nice as it looked in the pictures online. Just plain lime green.
It's an interesting case though. Fits well. I'm probably just biased because I'm already used to the pink one.
Well, just got my 2.99 obliq flex pro from the Mailman... I'll see how I like that one next!

I like my Spigen one better...but I just want the protection...I dropped my Note 7 shortly after receiving the 2nd recalled version and it got a tiny scratch on the screen...fortunately I had to return it anyways lol...Now I dont want to chance this V20 getting a nick...

Oops missed this thread, I started another for the Spigen Rugged. Excellent case for $12 on Amazon Prime. Good balance between light and still protective.
