My favorite Nexus 4 case is the Poetic Atmosphere. After I cracked the back of my Nexus 4, I used the Atmosphere to hide the damage. Don't risk damaging your HTC One. For only $12.95, you can pick up an Atmosphere from Amazon. Unlike the Poetic Borderline, the Atmosphere offers full phone protection in a surprisingly slim design. Although the power button/IR blaster is covered, Poetic will send an updated version free of charge to anyone who purchased the old version.

Poetic became a popular case manufacturer after it released its line of cases for the Google Nexus 4. With the release of the HTC One, Poetic has come back with several new cases. Today, we reviewed their bumper case, the Poetic Borderline. Although we felt it was a bit flimsy, as far as bumper cases go, it was simply average. While the materials were of fairly good quality, the case doesn't adequately protect the back of the HTC One. Don't let the fact that the power button is covered turn you away from this case. Poetic will be sending out an updated version for free to everyone who purchased this version. Even though it is only $9.95 on Amazon, we can't recommend this bumper to anyone who is looking for a case that protects the back of their phone. Otherwise, it is a decent, low cost bumper case.

This case+a back skin would at least protect the back from scratches and give s little drop protection, yes? Would the bumper cause back skins to push up around the edges? How much width does it add to the phone? More or less than a TPU case?

Yes, as I mentioned in the review, if you install a skin on the back, it will be protected from scratches. As long as the skins are seated proper, this case won't push them up. I attached a picture comparing it to the Diztronic TPU case.

had my bad experience with nexus 4 bumper, started to peel off the rubber from the plastic. This will be the same thing again, I even bought 3 because I thought I got a defective item, If I buy a bumper for my htc one, it wont be from poetic.

Poetic claims they updated the build, but only time will tell. I'm not sure if the warranty is valid in PR, but in the US they'll send you a new bumper for free.
I used to be an otterbox fan, just ordered an aegis case for pretty cheap off eBay. Screen protector included I've used them they're pretty good. Any other recommendations besides otterbox and that other cheap 5 buck brand lol.

UAG case directly from the site. I have the aero and I love it, it's mildly protective but not as protective as otterbox. This is for everyday wear and tear with the occasional 7 foot drop. At the same time, it maintains a heck load of style.
There can only be one, the chosen ONE.
Thise are the brands

I can't decide between the two of these, anyone who owns these let me know what you think of the protection they offer.

I bought both. They marked them as shipped a week before they actually shipped them. I still haven't received them.
So, to me, they offer the same level of protection, which is zero.
For others, the buttons stick and cause random reboots. They subsequently have to take the cases off, which leads to zero protection.
My answer, is to buy from another company. Maybe Ringke, those are popular. So is Acase.
Amazon.com: Spigen Google Nexus 5 Case Slim [Slim Armor] [Infinity White] Air Cushioned Protective Case with Dual Layer for Nexus 5 - Infinity White
The Slim Armor has a lot of protection. The inside of the back cover has raised cushions. The sides of the case are very large and feel almost like foam. I think this case would hold up very well if dropped.
Even still works with a wireless charger. I'm using the Nokia DT-900 here.
Hey I am deciding between the Moko Slim case and the Poetic Slimline case.
They're practically the same and price is not so much of an issue but I was wondering about protection from falls, issues with magnets scratching screens, and long-term wear and tear of the products.
Any recommendations?

I bought the Moko for my first case and it was alright for the most part. The tab that hooks around the N7 to close the cover is a PITA. I tried bending it out a little and broke it. That prompted me to purchase the Poetic case and I really like it. Simple design and does it's job.
Of the two I would vote for the Poetic.
i bought a generic "made in china" rotating case from ebay. quality is more or less as same as the "branded" ones.
even branded ones dont last long. a friend's i-pad case (veryy expensive one) literally came apart after about 6 months of use. so if you are gonna buy a new one roughly every year, i suggest buy a knock off
I bought the Moko slimline case from Amazon. All in all it seems like a good case. The only small issue I have with it (and I'm sure it's the same with all cases like this). When you fold the front cover over and use it in book mode the front cover has a lot of play up and down while you hold it. It's almost like there is too much material in the spine. If someone has the Poetic and could comment on if his is the same I'd love to know. I've considered returning this one and trying the Poetic.
I have the moko multi angle case as well as the regular(which I have yet to use) and I am very happy. I do agree that the tab that holds the case shut is somewhat a pain but not enough for me to not recommend it. I got it dirt cheap as well(12 bucks I think)

Just received my moko case today. I can't say i would recommend it as it caused my top speaker to stop working.

I've owned the poetic slimline case since july, when the nexus 7 2013 came out. Use it nearly on a daily basis and haven't had any issues with it
Had my Poetic for two months and the magnets are falling out and the plastic holding them in is cracking. I would rather pay a little more than have to buy a case two or three times within a year. Cheap crap.
Thanks for all the responses.
I ended up purchasing the Moko slim case.
I didnt want to have any issues with the magnets falling out and I didn't particularly like the logo on the front.
I've had the moko for about a week and I've liked it a lot so far. The case feels pretty premium and soft. The inner is a soft microfiber. The back has a hard plastic outline in addition to the fake leather center. This protects it fairly well as I have dropped it from a medium height (3 feet or less) a couple of times and it is fine. The magnet in the flap works excellently with the auto on-off functionality. I have tried NFC and it works through the case. I've also heard wireless charging works though I have not verified this. Some issues I have with the case:
The inner of the flap is collecting some fuzz
The left side of the case seems to be a little loose
The magnets seem a little weak and slide left and right. It can also open the case if shaken upside down.
Overall an excellent case and I would recommend.
Yeah, I guess that's what I am.
I had to get a case for my new Moto G5 Plus.
Initially, I had purchased a Poetic model. I went that route because none of the major brands had put out a new case for this device.
And of course UAG (Urban Armor Gear) came out with one just days after I received delivery of the Poetic case.
The Poetic case was nice, but it didn't give me what I needed, which was certified drop protection, better overall feel in the hand, and full front and back surface protection.
