[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.

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

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

Sent from my Epic Touch running Blazer Rom via xda premium

I just got the yellow version of this case. It is nearly identical to the Ballistic case, but the Ballistic is made with a little thicker materials and seems to be a little better quality. Some might actually like this case better though because it adds a little less bulk but still provides a decent amount of protection. The fit seems to be perfect and all the buttons and cutouts are in exactly the right place.
One difference is that hard plastic goes over the power and volume buttons with a hole for the silicone layer to protrude through. I think this might help cut down on accidental button presses, but they are still easy to press. The plastic does not cover the button area on the Ballistic, only silicone.
Overall, it seems to be a great case and I would definitely recommend it. It's probably the best value out there for a rugged type case, and the fact that it's available in multiple colors is a plus too.

To be honest about case for phone. It only make the phone ugly and bad signal reception.

Just buy a outterbox case I tried a couple cases and they never amount to any thing so just spend the 40$-50$ on something that last
And that's worth it........

1. Making the phone "ugly" is a matter of opinion. Millions of people put cases on their phones either because they like the way they look or because they want to protect it from damage.
2. No case made of rubber or plastic is going to have any noticeable effect on signal strength. Some cases made of metal may have a slight effect, but probably not enough to decrease performance.

Can't help but laugh at the "SUMSUNG" add in their post....

Well, this case paid for itself today. I dropped my phone while getting out of my work truck. I drive a commercial truck for work, so this was about an 8 foot drop onto an asphalt parking lot and it just bounced a couple times. This surely would have been a fatal drop without a case, but with this case my phone was completely unharmed. Didn't hurt the case at all either.

Don't get the these kickstand cases.

And it's look alikes. They're pretty good, but they block the proxy sensors, so your screen stays black during calls. If you have a work around to turn your screen on, then please let me know. LoL!!
If you don't, you'd be stuck on the phone until the other person hangs up, or you take the case off to allow the screen to turn on. It's a pretty cool case except that one major flaw.

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!

Speck candyshell vs. Urban armour gear

Debating between these two cases. anyone have/ had both and and prefer one over the other?
stock. sprint sgs3
Edit.. ive read the reviews and all the threads. Just looking for dirrect comparison off the two

I have the candy shell and oh man do i love this case. Makes it feel solid and really good in your hands. I highly recommend it but i have not tried the other case. Im not afraid to drop it and when i have it has help up great!

Thanks
stock. sprint sgs3

Never had candyshell but the new versions of the uag are nice! Im really liking the new tpu material they are using.
Sent from my Galaxy S3 using neighbors wifi

I'm also looking at both of these too but I have to buy them over from the US seeing as no stores here stocking them

I owned the Candyshell and it was a good case overall. Solid, but more importantly for me was the awesome tactility the buttons had.
One problem was the black version of the Candyshell looked like crap after about a month, and that is no exaggeration. It scratched up REALLY easy...

Bugger and I wanted a black one too
I was waitting for Element to make a decent case out of those awesome materials they use but then they released a case out of TPU and I've waited far too long.
Looks like UAG it is

Did you consider the following alternative?
acase supperlegera pro dual layer case
Looks good, feel great and protects very nice. It's the one I have. Please read some reviews.

If it is between those two, I'd pick the puregear dualtek. It's 1 piece and very solid, and the white version doesn't get dirty like some white cases I've used.

i have both and the Speck crack on me for the 1st time taking it out the phone to switch to the UAG case, what a waste of money

Let me say this my uag has protected my phone from multiple drops from various heights and has handled my 270 pound friend trampling over it lol I recommend uag all day to people with gs3.

UAG is the best case I've ever owned in terms of durability to size. I've had cases that offer better protection but that extra protection came at the cost of greatly increased thickness.

Got rid of the Candyshell within 2 months, got the SGP bumper, it looks sexy but something about the buttons... after 2 months, i'm moving on to the UAG. If this doesn't satisfy my for awhile, i'll try out the Duratek.

Here is both of them, i would go with the UAG the Speck crack on me a hour later after i bought, while taking the phone out the case

Let me email then and see what type of reply i get but I can safely say the UAG case is the best case out so far the Galaxy S3, that case can take the beating while keeping the phone slim and
protected :good:

Its crazy that i just got my UAG case a week ago after reading reviews online but i never thought about looking here. To the OP....you make a good choice with the UAG. Hope you love yours as much as I love mine.
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda premium

Like a couple of others above me, I have both the Candyshell and UAG cases (2 of the UAG, actually...black and slate blue). I loved the Candyshell and used it for about a month before it just started looking awful (I knew this would happen, though, since I'd had them on my iPhones in the past). Plus, I started getting cracks around the volume rocker and power buttons.
I decided to move to the UAG based on the glowing reviews here. I can say, without hesitation, that the UAG is the best case I've ever had on any phone, period. It will take a beating and still come out looking great and it strikes the perfect balance between protection, looks, and bulk (or lack thereof).
I can't recommend it enough. You won't be disappointed if you get one.

Love my slate blue UAG case.

Poetic Atmosphere Case

Hey there fellow XDA members and nexus 5 owners first post on the forums here and I have a question about a case hopefully someone can chime in here. So since receiving the phone I've been in search of the perfect slim case to fit my needs. So far I have tried the ringke and spigen ultra thin cases and I like them very much, low profile and enough protection where I need it. Anyway in an effort to quit blindly buying anymore cases thought I'd post here since the community is quite big. I just found this case on Amazon:
MOD EDIT: Referral Link removed
Looks like a decent case that would provide good protection all around and that clear gray color must be really nice. My question is has anyone purchased this case yet? If so how do you like it? I don't have any experience with this particular company but they do offer quite a lot of products. If no one owns this yet though I might have to take the dive. Thanks in advance for your input.

Poetic makes decent cases. I had an Atmosphere on my One but they suffered from problems with the rubber separating if you pulled the phone at the case. It looks like they may have solved that issue on this model by making the rubber go down farther. For $5 I will probably end up trying one out.

Awesome, does it add a lot of bulk to the phone or is it fairly slim?

The case does not add much bulk to the phone at all, IMO. A mini-review follows:
The style of this case is impeccable, in that it mostly stays out of the way to let the Nexus 5 shine. I have the white back N5, and the Atmosphere’s clear back shows off the vibrant color well. This is not a frosted back; it pretty much is completely clear, with strategically placed lines of rubber for the camera and also for reducing the slipperiness of the backend. The same matte gray rubber goes around the border and raises above the screen to provide a slight lay-on-table lip. Finally, the buttons are covered, but the buttons are still responsive, the lock button more so than the volume rocker.
The Google Nexus 5 is a very light phone. The lightest I’ve owned, actually. With the the Atmosphere on, it remains a slim, light phone. So while I want to protect this device, I also don’t want to weigh it down. I liked the Atmosphere case from from Poetic previously for the Nexus 4, and I was very happy with it, but I read about some durability problems. It remains to be seen if the Nexus 5 case will have better longevity, but I can say the rubber on this does feel sturdier than in the past reiteration. I am quite happy with this purchase. From this Nexus 5 version, I totally agree that this company does listen to feedback and keep making improvements. I am going to continue to support them through future devices.

I just got it in the mail today and so far so good. I had the same case on my HTC One the entire time I had the phone and the case was great.
I had an issue the the first Atmosphere case for my HTC it started coming apart. I contact the manufacture they stated there was a defect, they sent me a new case free of charge and let me keep the old one not that I wanted it. The 2nd case never had an issue. As soon as I found the Atmosphere for the Nexus 5 I ordered it. Good case and good customer service... cant beat it.

In any "case" (no pun intended) they come with a 3yr warranty so it's a great buy.

I'm a warranty kind of guy and 3 years sounds pretty solid for a case. (No pun intended either) Lol
One thing I forgot to mention in the OP, I purchased the spigen crystal shell which is completely clear and had an issue that many others had with the flash showing a glow on pictures caused by the case being lit up or possibly the cutout itself. Anyone who has it care to test that out? If its not an issue here poetic has my business.

Awesome I was waiting for pics! One question though does the case provide a "seal" against the back of the phone near the earphone jack, camera, and USB port? And what I mean by that is if there is any gaps from where the case and the phone meet? Because that's what I hate with other clear cases, that they have gaps and let dirt and dust in which makes the case look dirty and I have to remove it to clean it often... So if this case is well sealed I think I'd buy it!

how easy is it to take on and off? my gf has the atmosphere for her one, and while it's a great case it's not the easiest to remove. I only use a case at work, so it's getting taken off at the end of the day

GhostNGoblins91 said:
I can't really say for sure as I don't have a large headphone jack myself, but you can see how the headphone port cutout looks on the last image I attached in my review.
I should have mentioned this in my review: this case IS difficult to take off. The fit is very tight and I wouldn't want to have to take this case on and off everyday. This is more of a put-on and leave-on sort of case.

So does dust or lint get inside the phone? or does it seem like it would? (since you have the white one you probably wouldnt notice as much) But this is the only thing keeping me from getting it!

GhostNGoblins91 said:
I hadn't had a chance to notice this, but I did wipe down both the Nexus 5 and the case interior before putting it on. The seal is pretty tight around the edges, so I don't anticipate too much dust coming in, but we'll have to see.

What about the seal by the headphone jack and micro usb and speakers? does the rubber come in contact with the phone or is it fairly close? Cause thats where most of the dust and debris get in from sticking it in and out of pockets. Thanls for all the info I appreciate it!

I have one
I bought it on Amazon in November for only $0.01 with $4.96 for shipping. I have the white nexus and I love the contrast in the back of the black lines. In addition, also does not overlap my screen protector from XtremeGuard, this combination works perfectly protecting my phone. On Youtube are a good review of the case.

This is not a frosted back; it pretty much is completely clear, with strategically placed lines of rubber for the camera and also for reducing the slipperiness of the backend. The same matte gray rubber goes around the border and raises above the screen to provide a slight lay-on-table lip. Finally, the buttons are covered, but the buttons are still responsive, the lock button more so than the volume rocker.
The Google Nexus 5 is a very light phone. The lightest I’ve owned, actually. With the the Atmosphere on, it remains a slim, light phone. So while I want to protect this device, I also don’t want to weigh it down. I liked the Atmosphere case from from Poetic previously for the Nexus 4, and I was very happy with it, but I read about some durability problems. It remains to be seen if the Nexus 5 case will have better longevity, but I can say the rubber on this does feel sturdier than in the past reiteration. I am quite happy with this purchase. From this Nexus 5 version, I totally agree that this company does listen to feedback and keep making improvements. I am going to continue to support them through future devices.

Does the plastic back scratch easily? And does it mimic the curve of the original n5 back? Im using spigen neo hybrid, but the case basically made it a large iphone for me, extremely uncomfortable to hold because of the sharp corners

The back don't scratch so easily, I have it for a month and I have just a little scratches, I have the white version of the phone and the scratches are not perceptible in the use, and yes, it mimics the curve in the back and for me feels very comfortable to hold.
Here, is a good review of this case.
