**pics included** Black Cruzer Case on Amazon fits GSM perfect

I got the black glossy Cruzer case from Amazon and it fits snug and tight...better than my Incipio case I purchased from the Verizon store. The case is nice and durable. The power button and 3 prongs are open and the volume keys are closed with a nice rough texture. The volume keys are very easy to use since they are sealed. I recommend this case to GSM Galaxy Nexus owners and the price is not bad at all.
I gave it a 5 star review on Amazon.
Here is a link...
Check out the other designs Cruzer has... Android print case looks pretty cool too.

Thank you, will order some tonight.

How is the fit and finish, for lack of a better term, of the case? How tightly does it fit around the face and how are the areas around the mold seam?
I'm currently using this Qubits case and while it is quite good, it is not perfect.

The fit and finish is great. It is not loose around the face or around the seams. Im telling you, this fits nice and tight all around the phone.
Sorry guys.... I'll get pics later today...give me about 2 hours.

I have this case and while it fits perfectly it takes away from the look of the phone. Also makes it bulky and just not the same. I have a smoked one if someone wants it. Will sell it for $5.

Sale at Amazon on these

I got black. I didn't care too much about the color though. I only use the case when I am in route from one location to another. When I'm at home or at the office I take the case off.

Hard clear case

So I remember when i had my first ipod touch years ago i had this clear see through hard case and i loved it. It didnt really add that much bulk and it felt nicely in the hand. Im getting the white gs3 and i really dont want to take anything away from the look and feel and I want at least some protection. I was wondering if there was any kind of clear hard case out for this phone right now?
http://www.amazon.com/Cimo-S-Line-F...=1339952937&sr=1-5&keywords=galaxy+s+III+case
I was looking at this case but im not sure on how hard it is or if it was like one of those flimsy silicone cases.

there are tons of them here - http://www.ebay.ca/sch/i.html?_nkw=...+tridea&_osacat=0&_trksid=p3286.c0.m270.l1313

realistically i know its no ottorbox but it should still hold its own against some drops though right?

I just ordered the Iluv case. The shipping was a bit tough to swallow, but I couldn't stop looking at it all day which is my sign that it is something I really want.

I finally caved in and got this clear case
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Crystal-Cle...ccessories&hash=item2571a79a96#ht_2415wt_1378
I cant wait to rock it with my galaxy nexus when it gets shipped!

The reason i went with the iluv translucent case over a regular clear hard case was because after the back of that clear case gets scratched up from setting it down on things, it is going to start looking like crap. all the case nice and clear with beat up scratch marks on the contact points. The translucent will no doubt get scratched also, but IMO will be less obvious.

I just received one of these in black this week. It's really slick. It says optimus G on the front and inside (embossed), and LG on the back. It takes a few days for the flap to loosen up. I have the folio case, the bumper case, and the diztronic case, and I prefer this one overall. It feels really small in the hand and it's nice that you can talk on the phone through the cover - keeps the screen clean.

Can we get some good pictures to check out out. All the ones online are the same and you can't see much detail.
Also, it is magnetic?

My wife and I have the same folio case and it is very nice. It's manufactured by LG so the fit is perfect, although it has no magnetic or velcro fastener for the folding front cover. Also, the front cover has no opening for the notification light.

Definitely want this. Need more pictures lol

Aluminum Bumper

Most cases are made of some weird rubber, either they feel cheap or they get stuck in the jeanspocket.
Some cases look great but they always tend to build so much bulk..
Has anyone tried an alu bumper like this one? Looks great atleast..

It looks great yeah but 35 dollars is too much for just a case which is why I didn't buy the official one. If it was a battery case for that price or even a little more like 45-50 then it would be worth it for me

With battery cases like this. You will lose a bar or two on cell phone reception as well as wireless. This was the case for the Galaxy S4. I believe you will lose the function of NFC as well.

How protective are aluminum cases though? I feel like TPU/plastic combos would probably protect the best since it absorbs shock better than metal.

Thought they had a $5 off coupon....

Why does that one bottom corner stick out like that? I'm guessing that's how the case clamps together. Seems like it wouldn't feel very nice.

Yeah not bad, but I'm not a fan of Florida sticking out of the corner there. Always making a mess of things!
Also with it being an Aluminum bumper, I'm pretty sure it's aesthetics only. That's a relatively soft metal, especially with how thin is looks. Any real bump and it will probably dent/scratch easily. It's like using a thicker version of the HTC One as a protective case.

I am holding off as well. Even with the screws, not sure if it'd fit in my Seidio holster without scuffing the crap out of it. However whenever I visit this thread and look online at the pics, it seems unbalanced to me because of the screws.

Waiting for feedback on the aluminum bumper. I'm interested to find out if the bumper keep the back of the phone off of surfaces. It looks like it wouldn't protect the back of the phone at all.

I have one in red! It looks really nice and I love the look of the metal. The only issue I have is the silicone part isn't the most snug fit and sometimes an edge of the phone might come out of the case when I took it out of my pocket. I don't think the whole phone would come out or anything..I'm just picky.

Sent from my One using xda app-developers app

If you're looking for protection, I probably wouldn't recommend it. There really isn't much of a lip over the screen and the top corners seem to slip off a little too easily. It's not like the whole case would accidentally fall off though since the metal part helps to keep it somewhat rigid.
If you're looking for style, then go for it. It's definitely a unique case.

Heads up, if you actually buy it from Mindplar.com it's $45 with shipping and comes with an assumingly cheap battery bank. A little bit cheaper.

This case does indeed look night, I never spend this much on a case but I might have to, maybe I will wait for a few other reviews.

These are pretty sharp looking. I have only been using a sleeve, but might have to consider this. I think Eddie Van Halen would approve of the red one.

I seen 1 million cover for htc one but i never seen this one before ! thanks , probably i'll purchase this , seems really good

Just got mine in the mail. Came with a free 1000 mAh power bank.
Didn't realize that the IR port was covered, no big deal though. I can use a nail to put a hole in there.
Kind of disappointed that the "metal" part is glued on, and it doesn't wrap around the lip like other hybrid cases.
The case itself is very slim. If you have a glass screen protector it wouldn't wrap around it. Looks really great in hand though.

So looking at the pictures previously posted, is the rubber very...rubbery? lol like the ports seem very loosely cut (charging port) and the edges seem like very rounded. I am used to the UAG case and think the cuts and lines are so sharp that this case (while looking pretty rad) has some variances in quality
am i right?
