Has anyone tried one of these screen protectors? I've already cracked my glass once, and I'm not about to crack it again after replacing it.

Have a friend that has that for their S4, looks pretty nice and does its job. Moshi also sells something similar that's a few bucks less.

I've had one on my phone for a few weeks and for the most part am smitten with it. I can't imagine not having it on my phone. I do feel the need to point out a couple of shortcomings though.
1. I get a rainbow effect in the center of the screen but rarely notice it unless I'm looking for it but I really wish it wasn't there.
2. There are little dots on the bottom of the glass, I am almost completely oblivious to them but some people can't stand them so I thought I should mention them.
If/when something happens to this protector I'll surely purchase another.

Have had this case since April, great slim case. Well it started to crack at the top corners of the case a few months ago. Weird thing is since i put it ive rarely taken it off the phone maybe 3-5 times tops. So idk how the polycarbonate cracked.
Well fast forward go today and you get this:

That stinks . I am using the Cimo S-Line TPU Case. It is small and light but protects my phone well.
Anyone else with the featherweight case have this problem?

Title pretty much explains it. I have a few minor scratches from putting the phone in and out of my pocket. I know people say use a screen cover but this phone is beautiful naked. I'll try and get a picture of what I'm dealing with.

Short of replacing the display I think you're stuck with those. The only two methods I know of for refinishing glass are not friendly to electronics. Takes a really strong acid or wet sanding.

Thanks for the reply. I've seen some products on the Internet for these kinds of things but wasn't sure if they really work. I'm usually pretty ocd about stuff like this but I knew it would eventually happen with out using a cover. So I guess I'll deal unless someone else has some advice.

I know it's not the answer you are looking for, but XO claims their screen protector covers/hides the scratches. I'm not a big fan of screen protectors either, but I couldn't deal with the scratches...

I know there are product for this kind of thing. Some fluids to apply or whatever it is but I have no idea if it works or not. Guess it doesn't hurt trying if it's not too expensive.
I just ordered the case and it will arrive today, I'll have pics and a review.

It's a decent case which offers better protection than the diztronic. It's hard shell is not polycarbonate, but simple plastic with a velvety texture.
The power button is hard to locate by touch alone without practice.
It is very easy to install and does not mess with my spigen UQ screen protector like the diztronic did.
The kickstand can be hard to open unless you press in on the locking bar and it's plastic. It's in no way going to stand up to abuse.

Please do, I am definitely interested. Too bad they don't have it in other colors though.
A customer had this case and the kickstand broke the first day he got it.

Thanks for the review. It definitely looks better when it's far away than up close LOL.
It's too bad, I was thinking of getting a group buy on here for this case, we can pick the color we want and order a box (50) of them direct from China.
This case will not work with a screen protector edges lift after a couple minutes of use.
Sent from my LG-LS970 using xda premium
Mine doesn't. My spigen lifted more with the diztronic. What screen protector are you using?

Where's the manufacturer's website, searched everywhere but can't find it, anyone?
Thank-you.
I bought a case from eBay and want to make everybody aware of it. I'm always buying cases and this is my favourite by far!
Has a very nice feel to it, perfect fit, very strong material and looks great.
It came from Hong Kong so took about 2 weeks to come to me in Northern Ireland bit it was well worth the wait.

Is that the soft jacket xpose case? Capdase makes decent cases, I've owned their cases for my iPod and iPhone and look great too is it hard enough to scratch the corners while taking off and putting back on?
Looks really similar to the cruzerlite cases.
Sent from my Nexus 5 using xda app-developers app
I'm sure this case looks and feels great, but I seriously would not want to drop my phone while using that.
I don't worry about dropping it, never dropped a phone before.
I have it on and off on a daily basis and no scratches at all or else I wouldn't use it.

Here's my exact link. Took a few weeks to come though

Looks ugly imo. Sorry case manufacturers, I don't want to see your name from your $10 case on my $450 phone.
the last picture is very bad photoshopped! :laugh:
I ordered my Nillkin case from Amazon. Took about about a week and a half to come in from China.
Compared to the cheap 10.99 offering plus 8 shipping from OnePlus the comparison is not even that.
The OnePlus case is a slippery piece of thin plastic. Thats it. Provides no edge protection for putting the phone down on its face.
From Nillkin I got a gorgeous textured, rugged feeling hard plastic which is very friendly to those of us with clammy hands. And also provided a nice easily installed screen protector. For 12.90 shipped. And has a very nice edge for putting the phone down on its face.
On to the pics.

I have the nillikin and I don't like it much. Feels slippery and its weird because it has a textured back. Wanna sell me the green case?

Sure. Had it on for about a day.
Beware that the official oneplus case is known to Crack after using the case and not dropping it. Saw a thread on xda where users experienced that.

OPO case is horrible quality compared to the Nillkin, no contest
