xexijreil said:
I once used Invisible Shield in a Palm Pre and if it is very good against scratches it's horrible in appearance and after some weeks or months there are some pumps and dust under the skin and the corners are not sticked anymore. Are these gelaskins or decalgirl the same??
I'd like to buy one cause they look really good but this problems of invisible shield keep me far from it.

Looking to buy Walnutt case - ONLY sold in Korea; could someone help out?

Hi guys,
I am looking at the Walnutt cases for the i9100, I would really love to purchase one of the bumper cases, but it seems there is very little available. I have found 3 sites with them but they are all Korean and don't look to sell internationally (or at least don't respond to my emails).
http://www.walnutt.co.kr/shop/shopdetail.html?branduid=361134&xcode=013&mcode=002&scode=&type=X&sort=order&cur_code=013002
My main problem is that I am after the White/Green version (I think it will look perfect on the White i9100!) but everywhere is sold out bar this website: http://www.unilook.co.kr/shop/shopdetail.html?branduid=429862&xcode=007&mcode=001&scode=&type=X&sort=order&cur_code=007001
Is there a very generous XDA member who could possible help me out with some mail forwarding at all? Your PayPal coffee/beer fund will be added to! :highfive:
May thanks!

I found a very similar one on eBay

Thanks jt.61
I've seen these before and have ordered a couple to see what they are like - will let people know when they arrive; I don't have high hopes to be honest.
I still want an official one so I know it fits perfectly though.

Here is another probably better alternative.
http://www.spigen.com/cell-phone/sa...amsung-galaxy-s2-case-linear-pure-series.html
And here is a back cover to go with it if needed. You can choose that same green color.
http://www.spigen.com/cell-phone/sa...y-s2-option-back-cover-for-linear-series.html

I wouldn't recommend SGP Linear ... they are made of plastic and easy breakable...
I would recommend Sweet Armor .. they are not that heavy and they are made of airline metals (aluminium i believe ... not sure)

Thanks for the recommendations guys; I have tried many cases but believe the Walnutt would be the best for my situation

Very similar to the SGP NEO HYBRID?
Mebbeh try that?

thanks for the recomendations guys

Just a little warning. I've had a Walnutt bumper case on my phone for about 4-5 months, and they scratch the living hell out of the left and right sides of the phone.
I'm not sure if all Walnutt bumper cases do this, maybe I was just unlucky.

Maybe you got bits of dust between the phone and bumper? I know that my SGP NEO EX does accumulate a bit of dust between silicon and my phone. Regular clean ups does the job though. No significant scratches after 5 months of having the bumper, just slight micro scratches here and there, but those might be also deriving from me using my phone without bumper on occasions...
Cheers

I am currently using Walnutt bumper case for my iPhone 4 and have been satisfied with this case so far. I dropped my phone on the ground a few times while I was taking it out from the pocket. Fortunately, my phone was not damaged. you might ca buy it at http://www.zoarah.com/walnutt-bumper-case-for-samsung-galaxy-s2.html

HTC One SPIGEN SGP Ultra Thin Air Review

If you are looking for an extremely thin and lightweight case for your HTC One, look no further. The Ultra Thin Air from SPIGEN is one of the slimmest cases I have ever used. Although the case might seem a little expensive initially, the included Ultra Crystal screen protector justifies the $20 price tag.

Hmmm. That's quite a good looking case. The reviews on Amazon are pretty awful though
How does the Ultra Crystal screen protector differ from the normal(cheap) ones?

I feel the same way. I need something that will protect it from small falls (like from my lap when i stand up) and scratches thats it! If i didnt care about resale value i would just go naked, but i always sell my phones to upgrade and need them in good shape!! #thincases4life!! lol
on topic for the thread though, and i have almost ordered the SGP thin air case multiple times. i just cant bring myself to pull the trigger with such horrible reviews on amazon. Now, i know there are a lot of idiots out there that write reviews sometimes, but there are just so many bad reviews its kinda hard to ignore.

I ordered these, just don't have them yet.

It should work.
The dual sim card HTC One is simply that, it has two sim card slots, as opposed to one for our variant.

Hey there, I've finally got my HTC One and I'm after a case that won't take away the sexy looks of the phone. This looked like an option but very bad reviews. A lot of people refer to the 0.3mm cases, unfortunately there aren't many in the UK but I've found one on eBay can someone check if it's the same?
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/331144103956
Also, please suggest other common/popular cases similar to this Spigen and the 0.3mm case please.

Looking for 100% clear cases for the phone

Oh, in the UK.
Anyone found any without any patterns/frosting/colours which were quite minimalistic like the following:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/FoneM8®-Inc...d=1380384371&sr=8-1&keywords=htc+one+gel+case (HTC One)
I think there is one which is plastic, but I hate those in that they can scratch the phone when putting it on/off.

I got one and I hate it. The fit is not perfect and there is some give and squeak on the left side. There is a cutout beside the camera for no reason whatsoever. There is a cutout on the bottom back for the Xperia logo that is pointless.
The edges are sharp and easily gather dust and skin cells.
I'm waiting for a poetic atmosphere to be released for the Z1 since I loved it on my HTC One.

100% clear case? Even glass (which comes close) has its imperfections, however, I doubt you will find a case that is glass, no such thing you will find!
Neither Perspex, poly-carbonate nor Poly Urethane will give you 100% clarity, your request is unreasonable.

Its 100% clear....are you sure..my friend....????
As this is the first time I am getting to know about such thing which is 100 % clear...well one of my friend use this jelly case for his iPhone...just look at it once and do u feel It is too somewhere around 100 % clear...or how much percent you can give it on behalf of clarity...???

this is what im using. its pretty nice and i can still feel the phone quite a bit.
if you are getting a quality phone whats the point of covering it will thick covers and all you feel is cover.

After using IMAK for a month I got really sick of it. The case has so any scratches you can barely see the phone through. I received Love Mei aluminum bumper yesterday my review is up on YouTube. I really like it so far... even though it does make the phone feel like a square block. I don't think there is a perfect case out there yet. I had Krusell Colorcover before for Xperia Z and the paint comes of and the plastic breaks after a month of normal use. So if I was to choose right now I think the aluminum bumper is the way to go. Then buy a screen protector sticker for the front and back and that should keep you lr phone safe.

Krusell is nice and thin but it wears out very quickly (at least in the case of Colorcover). Do bare in mind that Krusell offers lifetime warranty so once your case breaks you can just send them a proof of purchase and pictures of the broken case and they will send you a replacement. They have sent me 2 brand new cases when my colorcover broke. I put them up for sale though

Ended up getting Terrapin clear soft plastic case £2:99 from Amazon like it. Power button a bit harder to press not too much bulk and nice grip. Goes nice with Glass m screen protector

TERRAPIN : Sony Xperia Z1 TPU Gel Skin Case / Cover
Comes with a ringing recommendation. How's that volume button and access to the magnetic charging ?

Volume seems fine. Hole there for magnet charger access but would need to be a bit longer? Not sure. Would need a good quality one not a cheap one? I cut my cheap one but still not very good.

Plastic bumper?

All bumpers that i find are metal, which means that are bulky and need screws to fit...
When i used to own a iphone 4 , i had a plastic ultra thin bumper that would not add any extra size...it was about 0.3mm
Is there something like that for Z1?

yeah, i was looking for that too. so far, i found this one:
http://www.benl.ebay.be/itm/For-Son...hone_PDA_Cases&var&hash=item258676dac5&_uhb=1
i ordered this one, still waiting for it to arrive. there isn't a hole for the magnetic pins so that sucks. i might make a hole in it.
besides this one, there aren't good bumpers for this phone..

I had one of those bumpers in picture, it was terrible and did not hold on the phone at all. Hopefully they already found a way how to improve them.
