Good CHEAP Car Mount

As the Official car mount isn't out till January and currently costs £50 (no way am I paying that much) I decided to go down the cheapo route. So as the Nokia CR-115 proved popular with GS2 users and the Nexus is only 1.8mm wider I ordered one at £5.88.
Can't get any pictures of it in daylight till the weekend so here they are at night.

Out of the box it's an extremely tight fit with the Nexus, but trimming down the generously sized 'cushions' allows for a better fit.
As you'd expect of a Nokia product, it's well designed and built well.

Looks pretty good. I much more prefer the official case design, but not $70 more. haha

Looks like a good idea for me until Brodit release their model. Does it not press the volume button though?

Got this here. Works fine. I personally cut the rubber a bit on both sides.

I thought I take a risk on one of the clingo mounts. My worry was as the back of the phone has rubber texture it wouldn't work well, but very impressed so far..

Do you think I could use this case with a Diztronic TPU case if I cut the rubber enough? Thanks.

I'll be looking for a decent car mount soon
Not seen many good ones about

Yeah I had room to spare with the rubber using this case.

I got both bumper cases mentioned in that thread, and they're identical. They're also cheap plastic junk.

Well I had also the one but I did not have nice experience with it...I found it quite cheaper one and just looking to replace it..with some hard case...very bad experience....

It claims " Increase antena reception of Nexus 5". I wonder how that is? Then again it also says Verizon nexus 5 lol.

I blason and abacus, yes.

This case just arrived and I'm certainly disappointed. The buttons are devoid of any click feel and the back of the case where my fingers rest feels a little rough around the edges. On the flip side it will keep the phone elevated off flat surfaces while offering marginal protection. My favorite aspect is how minimalist it looks, it's a plain unadorned bumper case that works with the Nexus 5's design aesthetic.

Travel stand?

I'm looking for a thin lightweight stand for my Nexus 7 for use on a train, ideally, something that fits easily in a pocket.
I have an Anker stand for home use, but it's a bit thick and heavy for travel.
I've also looked at cases, things like the Poetic or Moko don't seem stable or sturdy enough and add too much weight and size.
What do you recommend?

Look up Square Jellyfish on amazon. Works very good, small and light weight.
Just noticed the nexus 7 is much bigger than the average phone. But still give them a try.

Both of those stands seem less pocketable than my Anker stand

I was hoping for something smaller and lighter weight.

How about this one? Fits in a wallet easily size of credit card. Saw one on Incipio. My droid case didn't include one and I asked them how to get one and they sent me it free.

Nice little kickstand, but it seems one can't order just that, only a set that includes it?

[Q] Ringke Fusion Crystal vs Ringke Delight (same price)

Hey guys, soon I'll get my N5 and I'd like to buy the case as well at the same time. There's a website that sells this case called 'Ringke Delight' which is a walletcase, it looks pretty good but I'm not really sure if it's worth the money. It's about ~13.60 bucks and includes bonus item ringke invisible defender screen protection. Ringke Fusion Crystal bumper case includes screen protection as well and it costs the same.
Do you guys think any of these two cases are worth the money? If so, which one?
Thanks!

Any particular reason the transparent back is no good? (scratches too easily?)

Yeah, scratches easily and it doesnt look good without a picture.

If you're gonna go with the fusion, don't go with the crystal and instead go for a darker colour; it'll be all yellow and brown and stained before you know it

I think the fusion crystal looks great on the red N5 or a phone with a skin on it.

Spigen cases without IR blaster cutouts

Might be a silly question, but did spigen revise their HTC 10 cases without the additional top cutouts? I know the Rugged Armour pictured originally had these cutouts.

AFAIK, the HTC 10 do not have IR. This cutouts should be for the antenna

Thanks for pointing that out, I am aware they don't have IR blasters. My guess is Spigen assumed the phone would have it, so they added the cutouts, no other reason to have these cutouts.

Yes, Spigen did redesign their cases a few weeks after the HTC 10 launched. All three of the cases depicted currently sell in forms that do not have useless IR cutouts. Given that the change happened soon after I bought my Spigen Rugged Armor, I was able to convince them to send me a replacement. So I have both a version with IR cutouts and without. The cutouts were never meant for the antenna (it doesn't need a cutout).

They did and they were sending a new, updated cases for anyone that was interested as far as I know without problems. You can check my review to compare samples: http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-10/accessories/review-spigen-neo-hybrid-case-spigen-t3404549
