Hey Guys,
I've been very happy with a cheap Diztronics case, but the black is boring. I love the cyan lumia colour and have looked in vain for a matt cyan galaxy nexus case or any matt single colour cases really. If anyone has any suggestions it would be much appreciated.
Many Thanks
Michael

Teal Androidified case? Translucent however.
http://www.cruzerlite.com/cases/samsung/galaxy-nexus
Both of those are pretty good. I would definitely go with the Androidified one if only it wasn't translucent it seems like I've hit on a very niche case requirement. Might have to go with one of the custom case websites.
[Edit] this is almost exactly what I'm after but matt;

Thanks Srikat, That's perfect I'm not sure how glossy it will be in person but at $5.99 with free international shipping I can't go wrong.
I'll report back with some photos and my thoughts when I receive it.
FYI I've ordered a mercury case before and they are glossy with glitter.
I'll see how it turns out.

I have seen the Mercury cases in person. They do have a glossy and glitter finish to them or else I would have got one locally.
Too girly in my opinion.

Anyone purchase this case in any color? Reviews seem real good and it has cut outs for all ports. I just ordered the white on eBay for 7 bucks. I'll update if anyone is interested to know more about it. If anyone owns this case a quick review would be great. Here's the link to the amazon one so everyone can look at the case.

I've got that exact one for my LTE Nexus w/ extended battery. Fits great, adds hardly any bulk plus it provides better grip than stock.
Awesome. You got the white or black? If white, for how long? Hoping the white doesn't go a yellowish tint like I've heard other white tpus get.

White. Only had it for a week but it hasn't turned yellow yet lol.
Is the fit really that good for the LTE? Can you take some up close pics of the screen edges please?
I will once I get mine. But all the reviews on the black on amazon give it real good ratings becuz of fit and cuts. I state black but they are both identical
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA App
It fits perfect. I have a LTE with extended battery. There is a slight lip so the screen won't touch anything when you lay it face down. No idea where my camera is so I can't take any pics.
is it just me, or do these seem exactly like the Diztronic but without the branding?
This is what it seems like to be honest. The diztronic without branding. I own a matte diztronic and I like it but I've been wanting a white case. Plus the case without the branding is a plus for me.

Thanks. Would appreciate if you can also mention the "bulk" it adds compared to the diztronics. Might be exactly same bulk, less, more... whichever it is, I'm curious to know.
I have both the Diztronic rev 3 case and the white cimo case. If you set the two cases side by side, you can not tell the difference, the Cimo case just does not have the emblem that is on the back. Minus that they are virtually identical. I have the matte black case for the diztronic and i would say that both these cases are the same, jus not branding on the cimo case.
Alright so I got my case today and to me its a diztronic without the icon on the back as mentioned. The case causes a lip so if placed face down on the screen, it will be lying on the case. Side by side they seemed identical as well, diztronic and this case that is.

hey guys,
Beyond cell got another case going..Its called the Protex..this is the combo version which comes with a holster and a screen protector.. Pretty decend case..not a big fan of 2 pieces ..but the matt white makes the phone look pretty cool

I've been pondering getting a white case or skin since the release of the white gnex. This looks cool, but not exactly what I need.
Nice review.

Anyone going to pull the trigger on the SGP Modello Case? Appears as it was just released and at a pretty good price ($14.99).
Edges of the phone do not appear to be complete covered in their press shot pictures, but it looks thin and of high quality--used the ultra capsule on the i9100.

I ordered the nocturne black and I have the pebble blue phone.
There are pics on the SGP home page. I see some better pics here though

Trigger pulled - like the look of this one. I've ordered the nocturne black for my white S3, will post pics when it arrives here in the UK if nobody else has by then
I ordered the gray for my pebble blue. I ordered a tpu case a week ago but the cutouts were terrible. I was disappointed because I always use tpu cases for my. phones. The sgp is a quality brand so I shouldn't be disappointed.

If they had a dark navy blue, I'd buy one.
I like the look of everything about this case, except the colors.
Black is good, but I'm bored with it.
If someone gets this case and has a full screen protector like Zagg/Best Skins Ever/Skinomi, please post if this case causes the edge to peel.
I really like my Skinomi Techskin, but my TPU case causes it to peel at the edges.

From my experience with tpu cases and screen protectors, the edge of the case pin the sides arent a tight fit so it tends to rub on the screen projector

Just got mine in the mail today and I have mixed emotions about it. I got the frost grey for my pebble blue and the color combo is beautiful. What I ddint like is how slippery the case actually is and that it doesn't fit as snug as I would've hoped. I'm contemplating returning it =\

Hi all,
I just recieved today my Red Cruzerlite Experience Case from Amazon or you can get it from Cruzerlite also. A link is down below. Love the case, and its not as bulky as my spigen neo hybrid case. The case has its cutouts just perfect and it doesn't feel slippery in the hand. I recommend the case. Hopefully the pictures I post will show and any additional questions/pictures please just ask and I will post back with those.

I recently bought a Red Aluminium bumper case for my phone and it looks awesome on my phone just think about Red with Black combination. I will upload some pictures soon so that you can forget about buying a expensive case.
I have uploaded the pics and the last one picture shows it is red in color it is not pink. It is just because of the camera of Canvas 4 that the case looks somewhat pinkish.

I have a similar one. Looks great, but affects GPS and navi. And affects phone signal a bit. If it wasn't for the GPS issue I could have dealt with the loss of a bar or two.

Yes I am experiencing signal drops too I don't know why it is happening as few days past I opened the battery back cover of my phone I saw that the antennas are on the battery back cover not at sides.
I am about to buy a wood skin for my phone, you ever used skin on your phone as I am unable to decide dark wood or light coloured wood is best for black N5??
Both are nice depending on which you use. Dbrand is my first choice and for color, I'd opt for the darker one

No case is worth losing signal strength. Plus, there's no back protection.

Yeah, it looks good, but there are spigen and caseology cases that have a clear back that look great with a carbon fiber skin. And the signal isn't degraded with plastic.
Are there any rubber/plastic bumpers for this phone (don't want to hurt signal)? I never found any. The Google bumpers are just regular cases..
