Pure Gear Moto Atrix Shells

They offer several different ones, that look decent and aren't too expensive by any means. Just a heads up, for those of you who are looking for a new case. I'm probably going to order the fake leather one and the 'magnet gray' one as well.

I love how you linked the site while OP disguised his link
The leather one look cheap and tacky to me. These cases are nice but they don't seem to cover enough of the phone for me.

They look like the cheap (construction-wise) snap on cases. For $30, just get the Seidio Innocase. It's way better in my opinion.
Seidio Innocase II Surface - Black, Amazon
Black and other colors, Seidio Online
On Amazon I got it a week ago for $20, so maybe check a few times they drop the price every once in a while I think.

i got the same case that incipio made for $10 over at Fry's electronics

I didn't want this to be a comparison thread. I simply wanted to point out there are alternative cases out there on the market.

I'm really glad you pointed these out. I used to have a Barely There case on my old iPhone and these look pretty similar to that (I really liked it). I've been waiting for a case like this! Since Case Mate doesn't make any for the Atrix, I might get one of these. The colors aren't great, but I hate cases that snap together...

Thanks OP. Just ordered the magnet grey one. Will update when it arrives.

I'm ordering the grey one as soon as I get paid friday! I want overnight shipping, I don't care if I have to pay another 10 bucks to receive it, lol.

Yea.... they are quite nice looking. Not sure if i really wanna give up my TPU case though....
When either of you get yours.... mind posting some more pics? Would like to see what the inside of the case looks like, too.

Sure thing. I should have it tomorrow.

Just ordered the grey one, hopefully it arrives on Monday!

So can someone explain what exactly this case feels like? I don't REALLY get what a "rubberized satin finish" means... In the past I've used the case-mate barely there cases, which I like because they're not squishy or really rubbery and such. This pure gear case looks solid, but it says it's rubberized so I dunno.
And while I'm asking, what exactly is a TPU case (like this one: http://www.amazon.com/Amzer-Argyle-High-Gloss-Soft-Gel-Motorola/dp/B004L2L6JM/ref=sr_1_6?ie=UTF8&qid=1304100403&sr=8-6)
Is it similar to the pure gear material?

Just got mine. First impression is this thing is nice! One of the thinnest cases/shells I've ever seen. Just went into our QA dept to use a caliper and it only measures .86mm or .034" thick. The texture feels almost exactly like my old G1 did. Doesn't feel like it's going to be a lint magnet either. The grey color is a bit lighter than I was expecting too but not too light. It fits OVER the existing battery cover and fits nice and snug. No give in any direction at all. Overall I like it it so far.
I'll post pictures tonight when I get home.

TPU (Thermoplastic Polyurethane) is basically like a mix of a hard shell and a silicon cover. It's quite flexible, although not flimsy like a silicon cover.... and it's durable.... able to withstand quite a bit and still return to it's original shape. Actually recorded a video of me squeezing the crap out of one such TPU case that i got on eBay because of someone in another thread questioning the quality of the eBay cases.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=700ZNRtNEOA
As for "rubberized satin".... i believe it's basically a quite smooth yet soft feel.... not like a silicon, but not quite like a hard rubber case either. Hard to explain, really. If i had to guess, i'd say it might be similar to the Barely There case, but i'm not sure as i've never used either.

Here's some glamor shots of mine.

Hmm.... not too shabby looking. I may just order one.
edit: Just ordered the deep plum colored one. Only did ground shipping, as i didn't really feel like paying the same amount for shipping as i did for the case.... so it may be a little while.

Thanks for all the info guys! I always wondered what all these different types of plastic cases are. Thanks for the pics too, they inspire me to order one! Has anyone gotten the blue? How does it look in real life?

TPU Bumper

Anyone bought the following TPU Bumper for the Galaxy Nexus?
http://www.ebay.com/itm/TPU-BUMPER-...t=LH_DefaultDomain_0&var=&hash=item905d2ca610
How is the fit for the GSM version of the GNex?
Will the TPU bumper lift the camera lens away from the surface like how I suppose the front lip (which I hope is minimal) can lift the screen away from the surface when the phone is placed downwards?
How is the gloss like? Any other similar products with matte?
Are the buttons cut-out?
Does it add a lot, width wise?
Is the tpu rubbery? in the sense that it is sometimes hard to pocket?
Wow... lots of questions lol.

Crap, I just found a thread that has the same link. Thread title: "Best Case for Extended Battery $5 (Picture)"
Sorry if I accidentally double posted, my mind filtered out any threads where extended batteries are referred to since I have the standard batt.

Looks good, I am also looking for one.
but not shipping to sg

I ordered one of these. Should be here one day next month. I hate waiting, but that's what it is when shipping from overseas.

Mine was delivered on Friday. Very nice... fits perfectly and doesn't add much extra to the phone. It easily slips into your pocket fine even with the rubber which is only very slight. The buttons are covered with the rubber giving it a nice feel while protecting them. I got the black one and the phone feels very good in the hand with it on. Looks very stylish and still retains the GNex look while protecting it.
Hope this info helps. Only issue was it took 3 weeks to get to me..... only got the postal service to blame for that though LOL

I ordered 2 last weekend. My GNEX had been the first phone that I've gone naked with for this long and I'm loving it, but get freaked out of the thought of dropping it with no protection. Hopefully this is a good compromise.

I ordered my case from the op's link for my verizon nexus.
Case came in yesterday and overall its a damn good fit and feel for just $4.
Bought a white one but will probably order a black one as well.
I'll post up pics in a bit.

Got the case from the OP yesterday..*FINALLY*!!
I'm using the CDMA version with the extended battery and the fit is fantastic.
I hate having a case on this phone because it just looks and feels so great in hand naked.
This case feels great AND it's minimal enough that it maintains that sexy nexxy look and feel. Seriously, it looks great in person. Couldn't be happier!

Ordered the b&w, will review it when I get it. Thanks a lot for the tip!

I finally received my TPU bumper last week. It's definitely for the GSM version, though I don't mind it on my VZW phone. I like it a lot. But yesterday, the black TPU portion separated away from the white plastic section at the USB port area so I can't use it anymore. Could just be a fluke in my case though. I contacted the original seller to see what they can do.

I doesn't notice it in HK!

Elago Breath Cases GS3 White & Blue pictured on white GS3

Hey guys I ordered two Elago Breathe Cases for the GS3 from Amazon. I purchased the Glossy White as well as a blue called Glossy Coral. They cost $9.99 each and since I have prime I got two day shipping for free. Here is the direct link for the cases for the GS3:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/aag/main?ie=UTF8&asin=&isAmazonFulfilled=1&isCBA=&marketplaceID=ATVPDKIKX0DER&seller=A23S71QXDZCPQA
I purchased the white one for myself and the blue one for my girlfriend. The cases are very thin and sleek. They feel great in the hand and do not add extra bulk to the phone. The top and bottom of the case is open so you wont get overall protection there, so be careful when handling it and not dropping it. There is a slight lip, but I don't think that it will keep the phone raised up enough off a surface if you lay the phone flat on the screen side. I would definitely recommend putting a screen protector on to be combined with this case. I had already purchased a screen protector the day I picked up the phone from the store, however Elago actually sells the case together with a screen protector from amazon as well. The prices for the two combined are $24.99, and the screen protectors from Elago are $8.99 alone. There are cut outs on the sides for the power button and the volume rocker. I feel that the cut outs aren't recessed enough, and your made aware of it however it does not bother me too much. Overall I am very happy with the cases especially for the price. I would definitely buy from Elago again, and I do like the variety of colors that they offer the cases in. I like the Breathe style because they are different than all of these other snap on thin cases and make the phone stand out more. I took some pics from various angles with both cases on the phone and off the phone with my dslr so you guys can take a look for yourselves.

nice review. how well does the phone stay in the case though? i've been hesitant with snap on cases because i'm afraid the phone will come out of it.

are they grippy or are they still really smooth? I am planning on getting a case only because the phone is so smooth i know i'm going to drop it eventually.
It's a great looking case though!

Thanks! The phone is snug within the case. It hasn't come out of the phone. It fell earlier today, and the case popped off but i've had that happen with other cases though. When it fell, there was not damage to the phone. THANK GOD! LOL.

It is smooth but I feel like the perforated holes add grip while your hands are holding it. I used it all day yesterday and today so far and haven't slip because of it being too smooth.

I was hoping that the official vent case for the GS3 looked like the official case for the GS2 but they screwed the look up pretty badly. This one looks good but it needs that flashy silver plaque. Haha.
Although I felt the same way about the actual phone itself but the GS3 grew on me and is now the best looking phone ever. Maybe that official vent case will grow on me as well.

Had an elago s4 on my iPhone. Best case I ever had. Thanks for the review!

PureGear Slim Shell Case

Does anyone know where I could find some reviews of this case? Been holding off buying a case for a way too long and this looks promising
http://www.pure-gear.com/shop-by-ca...case-for-samsung-galaxy-s-iii-collection.html

Would anyone know where I could buy the coconut jelly version in the uk? I would be willing to make a video review on my youtube channel: youtube.com/polesp as a payment

I was waiting for the Musubo cases to come out, but decided to pull the trigger on the PureGear Slim Shell instead. I ordered the Black Tea one from this seller on eBay: http://www.ebay.com/itm/PUREGEAR-SA...t=LH_DefaultDomain_0&var=&hash=item2573f30cba
At $22.75 and free shipping, this is the lowest price I was able to find. It's out for delivery today, so I'll post a quick review within the next couple of days. I'm currently using a CruzerLite TPU case, as I'm not a big fan of dual layer (i.e., Otterbox, Ballistic, etc.) cases. The PureGear certainly seems like an interesting option.

Thank you! there are virtually no reviews out for this case which one are you getting? if it is the coconut jelly one would you be able to comment on whether the clear back leaves any marks on the back of the s3 (those big bubbles you get when plastic touches something), as postage to the UK takes 30 days your help is really appreciated

I was considering both Coconut Jelly and Black Tea, and ended up going with Black Tea. I know exactly what marks/bubbles you're referring to - my wife is using a CruzerLite translucent green TPU case on her white GS3, and the bubbles on the back are a bit unsightly. I came across a post on a different thread, where it was suggested to spread a small amount of talcum powder inside the case prior to putting it on the phone. Supposedly, it completely eliminates the bubbles.

We sell this case in store at TMobile ... they sell out fast... pretty nice case and a very functional holster

Just seeing if anyone has purchased one of these cases and how they compare to a diztronic or SGP color hybrid.
Thanks,

i wanted to buy this but kinda worry about the grippy rubber will easily get dirt and not washable. Also, how come there is no passion fruit color at all?????

Forget the case, look at the screen protector. Damn genius design...

looks real nice.
I like the Black Tea. Passion Fruit would've been soo much better had it had green trim rather then the blue.

I received my case and am definitely liking it so far, despite a couple of minor imperfections. I'll post a review this weekend, when I have the time to sit down and write one up. All in all, I give the case 8.5/10.
The rubber is hard, not the grippy kind. It doesn't trap dirt at all. The case is far superior to the CruzerLite TPU case that I've been using previously.
@Goobacks:
I agree, the design of the roll-on screen protector is absolutely genius. However, $25 is a bit too hefty.

In the event you come back to this thread, my case is holding up like a champ. They are available on Amazon for around $15 nowadays, and it's definitely worth the money. I got the orange one for my wife, who always keeps her phone in her purse, and the edges accummulated black scuff marks all around the sides of the case. I have the black tea one, and it still looks the same as it did the day I bought it. Then again, I don't have a purse!

Not a bad case not real grippy got the coconut jelly ( clear ) I don't recommend the color it looks like it has 3 cracks ( really small ones ) rite above the 3 slots for camera speaker and flash but not bad for paying 17 bucks with shipping from cell guru

THE thinnest minimalistic Nexus 5 case Hands Down!!

If your a Nexus 5 purest or naked lover and are slightly concerned going naked even though you like the feel or if you just dont like bulky cases this could be the case for you and its only 3-4 bucks.
It's .3mm thin covers all sides except the small bottom portion and has all the appropriate cutouts along with the sim cut out and is semi transparent however you can not see the Nexus logo through the black one I have (but you probably could if you had the white N5 or a colored version of the case).
This case is probably not all that protective considering its thinness and has very small lay on the table design and it seems to only lift the rear camera lens a very tiny bit from the surface it rests on from what I can tell so all in all it will only really protect from is scratches and maybe small bumps.
As for feeling. It said it was a TPU but idk about that it doesn't feel like it it feels just like thin plastic, almost like those plastic folders from schools or offices, so it's bendable but not like standard TPU because I'm sure you could crease it if it was bent to much. The surface feels smooth but slightly rough (more smooth than rough) so it isnt as grippy as the naked nexus and can be slippery if your hands are dry. The bulk of it is almost non existent becuse it does really feel like there is nothing on the phone at all it feels the exact same size which is awesome for people that like the size of the phone and it fits pretty snug there's no give when gripping or squeezing the phone.
The only issues I would say it has is that the sides can be a little sharp (probably from the mold) and the bottom open section where your finger rests is kinda sharp too and since its not too too tight of a fit there, your finger can snag that section when you pull it away to readjust your phone. Im sure sanding can alleviate those things, but I have yet to try it. Also since its so thin the Volume and Power are pretty much flush with the cutouts for them so it can be a little hard to feel them.
Here are some pics!
*Notes
-I have a Nilkin Tempered glass Screen protector on
-The pictures of the case were taken with the N5
-The pictures of the phone in the case were taken with a galaxy tab (Thats why they suck) lol But its the best I can do!

oops but dont get snappy I forgot it sorry lol I'll update the post.

Haha awesome, I was on another case buying craze a week or so ago and I ordered these exact cases as well (on Jan 2nd). I'm not a TPU case fan (hardshell all the way), but when I saw .3mm I said screw it, why not? I figured it's basically a skin and not really a case. So it should still appease my "next to nothingness" criteria.
I ordered all of the colors except pink and purple (so like 7 cases :laugh. When I get them I'll do a review with pics as well. I'll add them to your thread or start a new one depending on how long and pic heavy the post ends up being.

Haha awesome, I was on another case buying craze a week or so ago and I ordered these exact cases as well (on Jan 2nd). I'm not a TPU case fan (hardshell all the way), but when I saw .3mm I said screw it, why not? I figured it's basically a skin and not really a case. So it should still appease my "next to nothingness" criteria.
I ordered all of the colors except pink and purple (so like 7 cases :laugh. When I get them I'll do a review with pics as well. I'll add them to your thread or start a new one depending on how long and pic heavy the post ends up being.

Yea Id call it more a skin aswell but it sounds good to me! Id love to see the other colors and how they look cause I may buy more! haha

So this one has no lip above the screen at all, rather unique for a case. One problem I have with the case lips is they interfere with gesture that use the left/right edge, like moving a shortcut between home screens. Still I would prefer to have lips on top and bottom to protect the screen when I put it upside down.

It does have a lip all around except for the bottom part of the phone. Even with my tempered glass protector there is a very small lip so without it im sure the lip would be more significant.

and there go my efforts to try and control my case addiction...

Bought the white one, why not for not much over £1!

Does it include the screen protector? Or it is sold separately?

Sold seperately

Case looks pretty good, does it scratch the corner of the N5 when you remove it like the Ringke slim does?
From your pics it appears the case is not really see through like the ebay pics make it seem, is that right?

Ordered all 10 colors. It's cheap, looks nice, so why not?
Until now I ordered over 30 cases for my N5. Talk about a case buying craze

Nope it shouldn't because its not a hard plastic its more like a thin aslmost flimsy/rigid/semi-stiff plastic.
And yea the black semi transparent doesnt let the Nexus lettering come through but Im sure with the colored ones it may show a bit easier and the white nexus may show better than the black but I'm not to sure.
