Dude, mad props. Just got myself a second case for $3. I can't believe this price. Must be a China knock off or something. idc for $3 though.
Thanks. Ordered this as well. This makes case number 3 for me. Will switch it up every now and then.

Portrait view mode fails. I tired to get mine to work properly in portrait view and it would not work. It kept slipping down.

Too cheap, bad made, bad leather imitation, too thick, device doesn't fit well, stupid "addons" such as sd-card holders (for the card-less device!), ugly pen/stylus. And (as I've said) it smells like a "cancer greeting from China" - awful!
It was/is a decent cheap $3.00 case that I could get quickly. Serves the purpose until I convince myself to get ta Portenzo case.
I actually just got my case in the mail and I'm pretty happy with it! It does smell funny and the camera hole doesn't match up with the camera perfectly but for three bucks I'll live with it. I also add two pieces of velcro so I can have it in portrait mode without sliding.

I agree that its not a bad case for $3. Good first case while waiting for other better ones to come out, the smell also does go away.

For an offical case it's not pricey. Take the flip cover for the note 8. It's 50 dollars. Every offical case out there is double what the aftermarket ones are. If not more. I'm buying because it's the offical case so I'm already expecting a premium.

I mean come on Asus!!! for a $40 case you couldn't add a piece of magnet!!!
This case and the travel case are both just big fails. Although I don't mind getting ripped off on OIM cases but at least I want to get a "premium" case.

Was just about to post a link here for this case. I tried to official premium case and it didn't fit. I must say, the "origami" flip cover is awesome & reminds me of the Asus TFP origami cover, AND it has magnetic wake! I'm sold.
Ordered one and went ahead and got the Poetic case too while I wait for this one. :good:

Ordered a black one at the end of August for 0.1 cent plus 4.95 shipping. Just ordered another..this time red 4.95 plus another 4.95 for shipping. Two cases for $15 total shipped is a great deal.
Nice find, thanks for sharing!! Just wish I could get it for $.01 and free shipping with Amazon Prime! That would be a sweet deal! I'm loving my all white Moko UltraSlim and my all white folio case that I only paid $1.79 shipped for that I won in an eBay auction, so I don't think I'd really ever need/use a 3rd case. Great deal for any one in the market for a case though!!

I like that this case shows the nexus logo on the back of the phone.
I had this with my N4 but the buttons were too hard to press, then I sold my N4 and didn't keep up with the news, did they fix it?
Hopefully this one doesn't come with a billion weld/scorch marks.
Just wanted to mention that I ordered this yesterday. Even though the listing states in stock October 31st, I got a shipping confirmation today from Amazon.
Ordered yesterday too... Even if I still not decide about N5, shipping in Italy between 21-23 nov

This is the reason why I haven't ordered it just yet, going to wait and see the whole thing maybe in a video review before making the purchase, can't have my speakers covered.
Ermm.. I purchased this assuming it wouldn't ship until the Nexus 5 actually came out... It shipped out on Friday??? lmao... I hope they got the dimensions correct...
I think for Rearth, they just print/generate the shipping label in advance so it's ready to go out once the final product is done. I recall that's what happened with their Nexus 4 cases. But if the tracking number actually shows something is moving, then awesome!

I hope you're correct that they just generated the shipping label. I'd feel better if the case came after the phone was announced.

I'm currently using a Nillkin flip case on my N4 which cost me around £6 from china.Hoping they will release a version for the Nexus 5 which I will buy again,very impressed.
Hoping some of the nice third-party case makers come out with flip cases and backs. It would be nice to have more options out there.

Does anyone know if the nexus 5 quick cover from Google stays closed? Or does it just flop open when you hold it face down?...
what about this

I was also surprised that the one from Google did not have a window to see the time or caller ID. This seems standard on so many other devices.

Looks awesome. I would certainly buy it, but since its a replica, its not worth the $20 to produce hence it wont last as long as I would like it to.
Overprice. Another month and it gonna be around $10
Its all over aliexpress for much cheaper. Like $3.50 to $15 depending on the seller and how many you buy. There do seem to be different kinds of bumpers on there for the nexus 5, and the nexus 4 clone is the more expensive one.

I don't think replicas are worth being over $10 before shipping. With it being a bumper and not a case, even more so.
For me, $8 - $9 with shipping included is probably the highest I'd go.
I got this in the mail from the amazon seller today. I'm very impressed with it. The buttons feel great and the texture on the rubbery parts is very grippy.
