Looks very nice!! Thanks for posting pics.

YUP
no issues at all

Interesting, but waiting for Neo Hybrid EX.

that is amazingly beautiful!
I have the yellow neohybrid ordered, so im waiting for it...
I'll wait and see if it becomes saggy and loose at the back of the device, and if so...maybe i'll order a battery to fill the void instead of another case )

I have a Neo Hybrid case myself.
Just wondering, wouldn't the silicone part be a bit stretched since the extended battery cover is a tad thicker?

Just ordered one of both Many thanks for the post and heads-up!

good news
That the best news of the day!! I received my neo hybrid yesterday and waiting for the battery from expansys. Good, very good!

I think it fits the extended battery pretty well. But its not a perfect fit. It looks like the area around the camera doesnt sit tight and is a bit lifted from the surface. Same thing happened with my tpu case

let us know how that goes (in terms of fitting)

Thanks for the thread, I got my neo case too.
The only problem i have about Neo hybrid case that its slightly loose and open near the camera side, thus it allows dust to get inside the case!
using an extended battery should put a perfect fit to the case and also maybe stop the annoying dust problem

Any pics showing them on the device?

Is the case a hard plastic or soft rubber? Also, does this case interfere with the power or volume buttons at all. Some cases I had made it too difficult to press them.

I will update the pics on the phone right now in 10 mins

The topic title comes off a bit assertive.
I'd have to say the best case is the Androidified A2 cases by Cruzerlite... but hey, that's just my opinion.

I got that case for $4 shipped of of amazon. Let me see if i can find the link.
Edit.http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0062V037Q/ref=redir_mdp_mobile?redirect=true
Fits the lte version with the extended battery as well.

So, it's the best because you sell them?

im waiting for my diztronic to arrive. i find the "s" cases a bit cheesy looking.

I have the opaque black one from Amazon.de, and it´s not bad at all. It looks like a two-pieces hard case, but it´s all soft plastic. The worst thing about it is the wrinkled part on the sides, which, in my opinion, is too sharp and uncomfortable. It´s not very thin, so makes the phone quite big (even more..). It covers the power and volume buttons, so it protects them of being pressed accidentally. It looks great on the back side and protects the phone perfectly, so I can´t complain.

Well if the price is the issue then make me an offer and we will take it from there I might accept your offer
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA App

I have two of those cases. Purchased from ebay, they were less than $3 each and included shipping.
To sell them for $9 is a bit offensive, considering your taking advantage of the XDA community and not really trying to help benefit others - only yourself.

Well I am glad you were able to get them for that price,can you please share the link since I will like to buy it and also I am not asking for some crazy amount for them either which includes shipping and my time and effort to find them.
If I do not like the price and do not want it. I understand

I have not tried that case so for me and I have tried this and others and find this the best case as of now
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA App

I get them for less than USD1.50, they are a unbranded product, one of the cheapest case you can get from china, they do there job and they do fit pretty well, but I will recommend the mercury case, it's better quality and branded, i have done a review, click on the link in my sig.
there are many other choices, and it's personal preferences.

THIS!!! It's the only case that keeps the slim, sexy look and feel of the phone

There was a guy that posted a link that lets you design your own case by uploading a picture to the site and then it would print out for you. The case itself looked pretty sturdy and strong.

I just wish it covered the corners. IMO when you drop a phone, chances are it's going to land on of the corners first, otherwise I'd be all over this case.

I looked more closely at it and it looks more like an image of a controller or gameboy (depending on which of theirs you look at) just made into the case instead of the case really being based around the controller itself. That's disappointing lol since the iPhone has really nice cassette/Nintendo/gameboy cases that are realistic looking and of high quality... here's to hoping we can find some for our GNexus's! Will post if I find them

[Review] tpu bumpers

Ok just got my bumpers in mail today and i think they are great especially beacause all 5 were only $12 shipped. the down side is i had to get from china and it took 17 days. The back side is a pretty sturdy material and the front is softer for slipping over the phone. They feel nice and smooth in the hand but not slippry. So here are some pics i took with my old sII
I was surprised they were packaged pretty nicely

nice colors
They add very little bulk
The cut outs are all perfect
It protects all the edges so should give pretty good fall protection but still shows a lot of the phones beauty
I wish i had these before i dropped my phone but oh well thats what insurance is for and heres a link to them on ebay
http://www.ebay.com/itm/5X-Hybrid-S...040275?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item4d02a7e893
And this is my first big post/review hope i did ok and could help someone out

Thanks great review! Breaks my heart seeing the cracked screen tho ! I purchased the same one glad to see that the corner isnt exposed like it shows in the picture!
Uhh 1 question or request
Do you think before you send it back in to insurance you can do a drop test since your screens already cracked? Lol worse case you have an idea how much protection it gets might as well get as most out of your insurance claim (lol worth a shot!)
Thanks again!

Good info, thanks!
How do the buttons feel with the case on? Are you able to feel the button "clicks" easily?
In the ebay pics, it shows an entire corner of the phone somewhat exposed, on all of yours that hole seems to not be there, that's a good thing as that exposed corner is what was preventing me from ordering them originally.

thanks for the review.
im a bit confused though.
the ebay link pics show that one corner is exposed??

I have these as well! Currently using the black and orange one! I like them, and love how I can still have the feel of my phone, with protection.

yea not sure about the links pictures i was happy to see there wasnt any holes tho and the buttons work as if there wasnt even a case there. very easy to feel and click. and i will do a drop test as soon as asurion mails my new one but as of now they dont have any so i am being careful not to make it worse cuz who knows how long it will be til they get them in

Fit extended battery?
Has anybody tried one of these bumpers with an extended battery? I'm getting the QCell 4200mah battery now that it has built in NFC and I know the covers are bigger. I'm just worried about protecting the front edges from scratches.

Did your case shatter your phone?

I got my self a pack 2 tone color bumpers 5 for 12 from hong kong with a white carbon fiber back the bumpers are amazing. The fit is small lip on the front and back to keep the screen and camera lense off of surfaces. The button response is flawless, it looks sexy and it fits snug. Im so happy with this purchase. Im currently using the black and red my fav color choice for some it only took 7 days to get to me in california

This is my favorite case (and its available in a huge number of colors)

I have literally beaten my phones up in this case (crunched in door of minivan hatch and thrown 15ft in the air when wasps taught me a lesson for getting to close
they are cheap colorful and INSANELY durable. 2 piece hard shell with silicon outer shell. about as tough as it gets.
as tough as the Kraken above for 1/5th the price (though the kraken IS a sweet case)
watch out for spoofs of the case ology cases where there is PLASTIC surrounding the front camera etc.. this interferes with the proximity sensor (you can not turn your screen on in a call since it things its against your face all the time so make sure the "FACE" is open like this one.

Thanks everyone for the links and pics, but some of them look like there's just too much going on. I'm looking for a slick and stylish looking case. I guess I'll keep looking. If anyone finds a stylish one please send a link.
Thanks errbody!

if you want not as much rough and tough protection but decent protection and VERY slim and sleek I have grown fond of the SPECK cases.
EXTREMELY good tight fit excellent protection considering its a slim case LOOKS great (I want to get the blue/pink one) and the buttons are amazingly responsive.
I just fear its not durable enough for "ME" I can get pretty rough but for your average user its VERY durable much more so than a regular TPU case (its a single piec ebut two material case TPU/Silicon/rubber or whatever and Polycarbonate.
