Anyone purchase this case in any color? Reviews seem real good and it has cut outs for all ports. I just ordered the white on eBay for 7 bucks. I'll update if anyone is interested to know more about it. If anyone owns this case a quick review would be great. Here's the link to the amazon one so everyone can look at the case.

I've got that exact one for my LTE Nexus w/ extended battery. Fits great, adds hardly any bulk plus it provides better grip than stock.
Awesome. You got the white or black? If white, for how long? Hoping the white doesn't go a yellowish tint like I've heard other white tpus get.

White. Only had it for a week but it hasn't turned yellow yet lol.
Is the fit really that good for the LTE? Can you take some up close pics of the screen edges please?
I will once I get mine. But all the reviews on the black on amazon give it real good ratings becuz of fit and cuts. I state black but they are both identical

It fits perfect. I have a LTE with extended battery. There is a slight lip so the screen won't touch anything when you lay it face down. No idea where my camera is so I can't take any pics.
is it just me, or do these seem exactly like the Diztronic but without the branding?
This is what it seems like to be honest. The diztronic without branding. I own a matte diztronic and I like it but I've been wanting a white case. Plus the case without the branding is a plus for me.

Thanks. Would appreciate if you can also mention the "bulk" it adds compared to the diztronics. Might be exactly same bulk, less, more... whichever it is, I'm curious to know.
I have both the Diztronic rev 3 case and the white cimo case. If you set the two cases side by side, you can not tell the difference, the Cimo case just does not have the emblem that is on the back. Minus that they are virtually identical. I have the matte black case for the diztronic and i would say that both these cases are the same, jus not branding on the cimo case.
Alright so I got my case today and to me its a diztronic without the icon on the back as mentioned. The case causes a lip so if placed face down on the screen, it will be lying on the case. Side by side they seemed identical as well, diztronic and this case that is.

Perfect. Just right amount of pressure on both. I love the sides grip thingies. I can get a nice grip on first attempt of phone pick up. Same goes for when holding in hand, ot wont slide out of hand and dont need to rely on the pinky finger to stop it from sliding out lol

I have the incipio feather in black for my white S3. It's really thin and easy to grip. Wish they made it in white, though.

Are the Elago Slims any good? I have a Ringke case for my GNex and loved it. It had a small lip that kept the screen raised slightly if laying flat. The Elago seems to not have this?
Elago is the same price on Amazon and has more colors....
Has anyone had any experience with this brand of cases?
Stumbled upon this flip cover case that looks pretty nice:
http://www.aliexpress.com/item/For-...ries-for-Nexus-5-leather-case/1510895916.html
Also looked at this TPU case from them, but thinking maybe I should just get a Diztronic case if I want a TPU case.

I agree. Even the official LG one blocks it. Honestly, I rather just have the cutout for the LED and not the speaker if they only want one cutout. I'm mostly likely never going to talk on the phone with the cover on anyway. I would just pull it back. The LED cutout would be much more useful.
Does the flip cover stay closed with magnets?

Doesn't look like it does. As far as I know, the only flip cover case (excluding wallet cases) that does that is the Nillkin Fresh: http://www.aliexpress.com/item/New-...eather-Case-for-google-Nexus-5/940515366.html

I was rocking the black slim armor from spigen I got when the phone first came out. Great protection, not too bulky, protects the camera, and has a small lip on the screen so you can lay it down on its front with no worries.
I like it so much that when I heard that the bright red was more orange than red. I bought it in a heartbeat.
Only other case I got was the Ringke Fusion, works just as great and has a clear back. but dust kept getting in the back in between the case and the phone for me at least. Didn't like that...

I have a tech 21, a ballistic sg, and a spigen slim armor. They are all great. I tend to use the slim armor more being that it's smaller than the ballistic and looks better than the tech 21. The ballistic is definitely the most protective case made for the n5. But it's quite large. The spigen slim armor is still very protective and looks absolutely beautiful. The build quality is top notch.
for me, no doubt: Spigen Neo Hybrid
I am thinking abou slim armor. Its pretty expensive over here but it looks really great and people say that it is safe for our device
Sent from my Nexus 5 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
I have both the Ringke Slim and the Neo Hybrid. The Slim is my choice even though it doesn't cover all of the phone. Its slim and almost makes you forget that you even have a case on the phone.
The Neo Hybrid is a good case and just adds more bulk than I personally wanted. Its not to the level of an Otterbox but still some bulk.

ZeroLemon Rugged Battery Case
I purchased a ZeroLemon 3500MaH Rugged Case. It is by all means not a slim case. it's essentially a big ole brick of bada$$ery.
C shaped connector plugs into your Nexus 5 and into the battery, Hard plastic shell with a built in screen protector snaps around that, then rubberized fits around that, then of course a belt clip lol. I'd say i'm a centimeter off from a full inch thick lol.
I currently don't have a case, but I'm looking for recommendations. Can anyone recommend a case?

If you like slim cases, I really like the Ringke Fusion Crystal View case. http://www.amazon.com/PROTECTION-FUSION®-Absorption-Yourself-Technology/dp/B00H3OUGI2
It's completely clear to let the beauty of the N5 shine through. (especially if you have the red or white N5) It's a little bit softer than the Spigen version, has good grippiness, and probably more "bounce" if you dropped it.

I like the look of these. I wonder if they'll scratch the corners up like the Ringke does ...
$30 and it doesn't even say Nexus on it?!?!
Come on Google... It's basically a Ringke Slim or Spigen Ultra Fit for more than 3x the price. You could of at least slapped on the Nexus branding.

But...but it has the "Google" logo on it!! that must be worth $30 /s
I actually prefer the Google branding. I don't think I'll ever encounter another person in real life who will know what "Nexus" refers to. Anyways, these cases look to resemble the crappy Spigen/Ringke hard cases, and not the incredible sandpaper ones on eBay. We'll have to see who decides to drop $30 and put up a review.
Looks too similar to the lg thin cases. I'm surprised they'd even put these out.

Only thing is that the LG Hardshell protects more, the top is not covered at all with this case and the bottom is also less covered. I don't understand why they try to sell this product for more money with less protection/functionality. Must be a mistake
Waiting for the review, Wondering if the material is matte or like slipperty specially for white one.

To me, these cases appear to be more flexible than the more rigid Ringke cases for example, judging by what I see in the video posted above.

I bought the older black Google Nexus 5 OEM case with the "Nexus" logo on the back. I got it on eBay for last week for like $14.00, but it kinda sucks. I shouldn't say it sucks, but definitely not my style of case. I prefer as minimal as possible, where this case has much more bulk and a thicker lip that goes over the glass. Another thing I don't like is the volume & power buttons are covered. They aren't too hard to press, but it's different for sure. I knew I should have bought the LG minimal case. I really liked the pictures and reviews. I got caught up in wanting the "Nexus" logo on the back. I was blinded!
