During a hard case that fits the couple did not see the case.
It is easy to use and design is too good.
Design, functionality, color, price all good.
In particular, the color of polished too good.
I bought two mint color is matte bumpers.
Also ordered the red.
I'll upload the picture again being red.

there are a couple of videos where it shows someone brushing the lock point hook thing with his thumb, and then it doesn't come undone until he wants it to. i think it's like 3 or 4 in the OP.
the design is great, i dont' know how often i'd use the card holder, though.

The case is a plastic (polycarbonate) bumper with a plastic backplate that sits under it. Under the backplate is an indented card holder which fits one card. The bumper clips around the frame.
Pros:
- Concealed card holder is a great feature
- All edges of the phone are covered as well as the backplate
- Raised edges around the entire screen holds it off flat surfaces when face down
- Buttons all fully accessible - not restricted in any way
- Perfect fit, easy installation, clip is very firm
- Very thin
Cons:
- Black plastic backplate is very susceptible to smudges/fingerprints. Minor issue really.

Wow! That was fast. It's got users who are already buying. Wow!

As the thread title says, it just came in. Just put it on the phone and, no surprise, it's awesome. My phone is the Verizon LTE version with an extended battery and it fits perfectly (sure, it's a tight fit, but that's normal for Sena's stuff and will get easier to remove/replace as the leather molds to the phone). I'll put some pics up later when I can locate the regular digital camera.
I have had the opposite experience. I have a GSM nexus and the case is far too tight. The power and volume buttons are frequently pressed causing pocket screen shots and unnecessary ware on the buttons. I have had the case for just over a week and while it has stretched its still causing problems.
The best slip case so far has been a microfiber bag intended for my sunglasses. Although its not as pretty as the sena.

One thing I have done to help the cases stretch is reach inside and spread it out. I did it by putting an old 2.5" laptop hard drive in the case.
Is it a pouch?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
Got mine too. I have the GSM version and I have to agree, the fit is too tight.
I considered the Sena Ultra Slim too in my search for a nice and slim pouch but ultimately decided on the fitBag Beat.
It's not "super" slim as the Sena is but still slim. Have a look here if you are interested: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1454961
I love Sena ultra slim case. I had them on my HTC Desire, iPad 1 and iPad 2.
They are really tight in the beginning. But since they are leather, they stretch. After a week or two you should find them fitting snugly, but not too tight. As far as leather quality is concern, they are top notch.
That being said, I just don't feel like using a pouch on my phone anymore. But if I were to get one, this is definitely my choice.
Anyone else wishing there were thousands of tiny holes where the notification light sits (not to mention near the ringer speaker!) ?

Just go to Sena's homepage and order it! You will have it in 2 or 3 working days. Really fast delivery! But I would buy another case since it presses down the volume and power buttons all the time.

I find this happening less and less as I use the case, without even doing any deliberate stretching beyond leaving the phone in the pouch for hours at a time.
This thing is great for my battery life too as knowing I will need to remove the case helps me resist the urge to wake it up just to flip the home screens back and forth
The case is really tight at first but after a day it has stretched out quite nicely and it is a very comfortable fit, no issues with power button anymore.
Super slim, love it!

So I was about to buy the Ultraslim when much to my surprise I found a new case waiting for me! The ultraslim is now gone but the new design is much more appealing to me. Can't post links since I'm new, but it should be easy to find!
I'm hoping they fixed the tight fit problems. I might send a quick email to them asking about this.

No 'real' use' feedback but i notice its flush with the phone so it wont offer that little bit of screen protection you sometimes get. Just a thought.
I have 2. Its not flush.. it sticks up a *slight* bit and my screen doesn't touch when I place it face down on my desk. This case IMHO is the best that's out there. No its not bullet and water proof but its sexy and slim, perfectly fitting and a very high end feel. I have the white and black and both are great.

I bought it when i first ordered my note and have had it on since (as well as bought one for the gal friend). It's freaking awesome, would definitely recommend it to anyone.
Own one as well and very very satisfied with my purchase.
Owned an SGP ultra thin prior and I prefer the Elago over it, due to its better fittment and less flashy look.
so I managed to drop my phone on the sidewalk with this case on. As luck would have it, it fell upright, bottom down first and made contact right at the part where the case ends and the phone begins. Even though the case took a majority of the hit, there is a dent on the phone's frame itself. Not the result I was hoping for.
On the flip side, I have also dropped it face down and there wasn't a scratch on the screen.
Bottom line, if you're looking for all around protection, it may not be your best choice. Maybe getting one of the aluminum bumpers could be the way to go.

The elago slimfit case is a super all around case.. I have had the black one for about a week...

Are you talking about with the case on? If that's what you mean, then it kind of fits in the vertical dock. It doesn't go down all the way obviously but it recognizes it as being connected, charging, and so on. Only thing I've noticed is that on AOKP it thinks the vertical dock is a horizontal one and wouldn't change for me.

I'm using the samsung one, here's a picture with the case and without the case. You can kind of see how it raises it just a little bit. Not much at all really. As far as removing the case, I start from the top left corner then pop it off of the bottom right. I don't like applying a lot of pressure on the power button.

no the lip isn't thick enough to protect the front button and screen. I have a screen protector on anyway so screen is protected. I don't like the other TPU cases with a thick lip as it makes the phone seem really thick.
Thanks for the pictures. That looks better than I thought it would.

i think only samsung is offering the twin pack (clear and blue) for $19.99 (currently on back order), other sites show the twin packs as either white or blue, the clear one is sold by itself for $19.99.
Looks good I love it
These cases look ok on pictures and are really thin which is a plus but not good to hold in my opinion. You can actually feel the pattern and the whole thing feels cheap.

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!

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.

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.
Cheers for the initial impressions. :good:

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?

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?

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.
