I plan to order the Nexus 5 when it will release this month. Found this case on Amazon for N5. Like the Clear/Black Color.

I really wonder if these cases will fil correctly. They probably used the dimensions from the service manual.

Someone from another thread stated that they get "dummy" versions to be able to mold their case into the right size.

Did you get it already? What is the material they used? I have the Ringke Fusion case on the N4 now and the G/F doesn't like the hard plastic texture. She said this might have a grainy feel to it.

Well no cause when I ordered this case the next day I cancelled this order cause I got another case that looked the same. But I still got a shipping email then about 12 hours later I got an email from supcase saying to disregard the shipping email that they would honor my cancellation. So no I don't have the case but I will have the similar looking case I mentioned made by Spigen tomorrow. The reason I cancelled the supcase and went with the Spigen was Spigen was offering a free screen protector. See below pic

Anybody got the SUPCASE yet? I have one for the Moto X and love it. I got the SPIGEN Ultra Hybrid posted above and HATE the screen protector AND the case so I'm thinking about spending yet more money on another case.
I saw these cases on Amazon too and I really, REALLY like the look of the black with matte clear back. I think this is so much more attractive than the fusion/ultra hybrid cases everyone is talking about. I'd guess that the matte texture on the back is somewhat more grippy than the clear gloss PC, but without both in hand, I can't make that call. The price is good, so I might just order one to check out even though I wont have an N5 until Xmas. Also, the black/black looks nice too (kind of like the diztronic). I'm most curious about the button fit on these cases because I've heard some other people are having issues with button covers that are too tight.

The Moto X version is really tight to get on and off but the button access and everything else is outstanding.

Well, kind of, the Spigen and Ringke have a glossy finish on the back plate whereas the Supcase appears to have a "semi matte" finish on that part. I don't know about you, but to me, that's an important distinction to make. The Supcase probably hides dust under the plate better than the other two and I suspect it would also show fewer scratches just from being in a pocket. Even while being matte, you still get to see the Nexus logo so I just don't see the benefit to the Spigen or the Ringke. I'm sure in the next week or two, SOMEONE will post a comparison between the hybrids.

Before I put the case on the phone it looked pretty decent. That was just me looking at it before the phone arrived. After it was put on the phone, it just makes the phone feel cheap. The clear window on the back has multiple scratches already with extremely delicate use. I also can't find the buttons. They are flush and I can't feel for the - or + buttons. When I am searching for +, I usually hit the - or vice versa. The screen protector has various bubbles around the display that I can't get out plus because of the design of the case, the protector is lifting in the bottom corner and bottom middle causing a bubble affect in those areas. The protector and phone were clean (phone was literally taken out of the box five seconds before putting the protector on). I should not have the bubble issue that I am having. I've installed plenty of protectors before on various phones and never have I been so disappointed in one before.
I might just be complaining too much. There are others that have this case and love it so hopefully you will be in that group. There is a plastic sheet on both the inside and outside of the clear window so don't forget to peel off both. I ordered some XtremeGuard body protectors that will do the trick there but I'm also hoping to pick up a SUPCASE since I love everything about the Moto X version. I might just go ahead and prime it.

Well I honestly don't really care about that, what I care about the most is the one the offers better protection and doesn't add too much bulkiness. I went with the Spigen because of the good reviews, I have never heard about Supcase but yeah I'll give the Spigen myself a shot and wait for the future comparisons see which fairs better and then maybe get another one I'm actually thinking of getting the most slim case, but I'll wait to see which is the better choice.

Yeah, it seems like a lot of people are liking the Spigen so I hope you do too. Like you said, there are going to be a lot of other choices coming and plenty of reviews to read/watch. I have about another month and a half before I even get my device so there will probably be 5 more cases that I want by then

Ordered a Black/Clear one from Amazon. Here's hoping...
Would love to see a three way review between these three similiar cases. If I could have the Ringke in all black, I'd be a happy camper. Unfortunately, I'm looking elsewhere.
I'm hoping that one of you guys throws some HQ pics of this one.
Any pics of this case yet? Id love to see the black and frost back to see if its worth buying!
Mine should get here today. I'll take some pics tonight.

I was browsing around the AT&T web store, and saw these cases available. I'm happy to see the Incipio feather case make the list. While I typically don't put cases on my phones, I'm a big fan of the feather case. It's so low-profile that it almost feels naked (although, I'm not sure if the phone would still fit in the docks).

I agree. But the blue actually looks pretty good with the stock homescreen.
Incipio makes great cases. When i had my iPhone, that is the only case i'd buy. When my wife got an iPhone, that is the case i got her. They fit well, they arent overly bulky, and they are strong.
The only reason i havent ordered one yet is because i also got the dock and i dont think that the phoen will sit in the dock with the case on. That is a deal breaker for me.
I bought the speck but would trade for a feather if anyone is interested.
Personally the only case I'm interested in is a TPU case...And I'm not going to get one until there's a non-patterned one available. Who ever thought it was a good idea to have argyle print on a phone case?
Has anyone been able to find screen protectors anywhere yet? There is one built into the otterbox defender case i bought from att for my atrix when i get it - but i havent been able to find any screen protectors like i have for my captivate....

I ordered the two pack of anti glare screen protectors from att.com along with the body glove case.
The Speck cases look nice but they scratch easily, the feather cases tend to get worn from being rubbed on in your pocket and from sliding on tables, and the body glove always worked well on my Captivate.
Anyone have a link to these? I'd really like to buy one, I just cant seem to find them on any of the manufacturers websites nor AT&T online....
Try phantomskinz. Best screen protector I've ever had. 2 for 9.99 and feels like glass. I dont know if they are out yet tho.

about $30? I don't have the receipt in front of me at the momemnt so I don't know exactly... It is very very nice though. Glossy and soft on the inside and very thing... just no covering for the ports. but then again I have never had a case cover the ports so its all good. I plan on checking out the commuter and maybe returning the speck.

Oooh, yea the commuter covers the ports (which I always found annoying btw) I was leaning more towards the candyshell because it looks so...... beautiful. Does it make the phone substantially fatter though? Also, does AT&T charge a re-stocking fee for accessories?

I don't know about the restocking fee.. I'm going to guess no, because the guy that helped me out seemed like an informed, nice dude. And when I asked him about the return policy he didn't mention restocking.
I actually don't have my phone yet - I didn't pre order so I am going to be picking it up tomorrow morning. I have opened up the speck though and checked it out... the size of the case is not big at all. I think it is comparable or even slightly thinner than the otterbox commuter, if that helps you at all. It is in fact a really nice, well designed case. The black plastic is glossy, which could be a good thing (probably easy to slip in and out of pocket) or it could be a bad thing (aquires light scratches from being placed on hard surfaces). I will have to see how it holds up for a few days (I take great care of my things) but I might just end up keeping it.

Thanks . I've owned all kinds of cases from pretty much all the major manufacturers (otterbox, speck, case-mate, incipio, boxwave) for different phones and have never gotten the chance to try out a Candyshell before so, thats why I was leaning towards it. That was very informative and helpful.

yeah, I don't think you can go wrong with the candyshell. It is pretty nice all around. Especially if you don't care to have the ports covered, then this is just as good or better than the otterbox for you.
I just wanted to update... The Speck case IS NOT my idea of a case. It is too thick, and adds too much bulk to an otherwise slim phone without providing the best coverage. The rubber is annoying...Would NOT purchase this case. I am returning in the morning. I want to stick to the otterbox commuter.
The Incipio Feather does, in fact, come in black. I just bought one this morning when I picked up my Atrix at RadioShack.

Anyone had any experience with this brands TPU cases before? I will update this thread with my review once I get it installed.
**Update 6.29.12**
I picked up my phone from BB yesterday and took this case with me to protect my phone until my Incipio Sylicrilic Dual Pro arrived...which was at home waiting for me along with my Tagsfordroid NFC tags. The case had a nice feel to it, at least on the shiny parts where it had more grip...the matte area was pretty slick/smooth/slippery. It was my first experience with a TPU case and while it added very little bulk, much like a wetsuit, it was a little difficult to stretch onto the phone. I thought I was going to damage the phone trying to get it on. But after getting it on I liked it for it's intended use, preventing cosmetic damage to the backside of the case and allowing me to set the phone face down without feat of damaging the screen. But my big complaint is that the buttons are very hard to press and you can't even tell when you've done so as you have no audible or tactile feedback upon the press. Because of this, the TPU came off as soon as I got home and noticed my SDP had arrived. I do not recommend this case unless it's just going to be used similarly to the situation I used it for.
generic cases you can get them for a buck on ebay with shipping. have used them on a lg o2x, sgs2, HOX and later today a sgs3. they usually fit really good. had no issues with them.

I've ordered one for every phone I've had this past year they are super thin and have a good grip on the sides
But the white ones get super dirty really fast

How does it feel in your hand? Does it add alot of bulk? What's the fitment like? Does it attract dust/lint? Does it add any grip? Have you dropped it at all, if so, did it fare well?

I love these types of cases. I have had one for every phone I have had over the past year and a half(and I've had a bunch) Case doesnt add too much bulk at all and it feels great in the hand. The side grips are very nice

I just bought a couple of TPU case for my S3 as they are my favorite type of case. I have the ones on eBay that have a slightly textured X pattern on the back and a couple identical to the flexishield case on mobilefun. I've found the ones on eBay to be to loose and move around a bit when I'm adjusting the volume or locking/unlocking my phone ect and both of them have a problem with reflecting the color of the case back into the camera lens when using the flash.It makes for some pretty interesting photo effects.
The ones you linked to look good but I would advise against getting a semi transparent color. I'm thinking about getting one in black or white to see me through until Incipio release there NGP case.
Okay, I forgot the mention this before when I posted the images.
While they feel great and look really good.
I noticed NFC doesn't work with cover on, I think this might be the same for most covers and not just this one, but none the less if you use NFC a lot. Keep in mind you need to remove the cover to do so.

TPU cases typically don't fall off. You have to pop them off. They're pretty ideal.

Got my case today, super fast if you ask me considering I placed my order at 11pm on the 6th. Will definitely do business again with these guys. I bought it on Amazon from "SF Planet", they're out of Minnesota and I live in California.
So I checked out the case and the first thing I noticed is how thin it is, will add very little bulk to the phone. It's thick enough to hold it's form but thin enough to be very low profile. The case has shiny and dull areas on it....the shiny areas are very grippy, the dull areas not so much. But since the edges where you would normally hold the phone are knurled and shiny, gripping it should not be a problem. It's also got cutouts for the necessary areas, including both top and bottom mic's. Can't speak on the fitment for obvious reasons but will do so hopefully soon.
So far, so good.
People that buy this case in white, it gets very dirty! Only the left half of the wave design since it's a different surface. (matte vs. gloss).
Do TPU cases provide enough front coverage?
It seems like the Commuter would do better.
if your in london you can buy it from these guys... i bought a case for my SGS1 Year and a bit ago and they were really good than http://www.londonmagicstore.co.uk/Samsung/I9300/S+Line.htm

It certainly would, but considering the commuter wont be shipping until the week after launch I had no choice but to get something. TPU cases will guard against scratches, thats about it.

OP updated with my review
Just wondering if anyone has any tips on what clear case/skin to get? I love the look of the phone, but I sell my phones every 8 months or so, so I need something that will protect it from scratches.
I dont often drop my phone, so a super protective case isnt necessary but I do sometimes put change in the pocket with my phone. Also, I am worried that a skin (like invisibleshield) will start to peel off after a short time - like it did on my old iphone 3g when I had that.
I had Ghost Armor's clear full body shield installed a few days after I bought it. It's barely noticeable on the phone and covers pretty much the entire surface except for the sides (top and bottom are covered). $36 includes installation and warranty.
Side note, do you just buy your phones off contract except for every 4th one (which should fall at the 24th month mark)? How much do you end up spending on phones per 2 year period on average? I've always just waited for my contract to be up. If Google comes out with a new Nexus device for Sprint this year I may have to pick that up, though.

Atleast it will work until something better comes along, if nothing else.. but as I said, for now its the best I've found out there anyway. I just want a good, thin and clear TPU case with no silly branding and a front lip to protect the screen - but somehow that seems to be hard to find
I received the Cimo case last week. Ordered it thinking my Poetic Atmosphere case wouldn't arrive for a couple of weeks. Now I have both. Didn't expect it, but I like the Cimo better than the Atmosphere case. Yeah, the volume rocker is a little difficult, but I don't use the volume rocker often enough to worry about it. It looks great, adds very little to the size, and has a grippy feel.

I have ordered the Cimo Grip case.. found here: http://www.ebay.com/itm/CIMO-GRIP-FLEXIBLE-TPU-CASE-FOR-HTC-ONE-M7-COVER-/171028964515
Haven't recieved it yet, so I can't comment on quality. It seemed to be one of the better clear cases I could find though.. let me know if there are any other good clear cases out there!

I have the clear case and its great. Its actually slightly frosted, but you can't really tell once its on the WHITE HTC One. Can't speak for the black one. All the cut outs line up perfectly and the IR blaster works just fine! Great case
I just applied my BestSkinsEver on. I got the matte body with glossy screen protector. I wanted to preserve the look and feel so instead of all glossy I got only the screen.

The problem with the Spigen is that it's made from hard plastic hard to pull out and will most likely break on impact
it's weird HTC didn't release a transparent slim cover themselves, the one for the One X was pretty neat
I was using Xtremeguard front and back screen protection for the HTC ONE from Amazon for $5.
I use this brand for all the phones I get. I like how it feels and it's just affordable.

I said "was" using it because I had to take the back protector off because I ordered a clear iMak case which caused a water effect from the clear case meeting with the case. I got this case off ebay for $4.00 and it came in the mail pretty fast considering it was shipped from China. The case works but the part on top of the volume rocker doesn't feel like it clicks in place. The case is secure but it feels a little weird. It's not fully flush but it was a few dollars so Im not really complaining and it allows me to show off the phone yet still being able to protect it. I dont like how their iMAK text blocks the One's Beats Audio branding but that's just me nitpicking. I don't know if you can tell but I have like a permanent spec on the case that I cant take off. May not bother you but I've been rubbing and cleaning but that ****s on there for good.
I bought one of these, similar to the handhelditems one but the frost goes to the edge instead of leaving a border.

Its a great fit on the phone, this is one of the first phones where a TPU case doesn't really feel like extra bulk to me, the phone is so slim it still is a perfect size. The camera cutout isn't the most protective, as you can see there is some space around there but flash and everything isn't affected.
The frost on the case shows through pretty well on this silver version, the back still looks great as you can see. I don't have problems pressing the volume buttons as others have mentioned, I always get them pressed first try although they do feel a little squishier than without. IR blaster works fine through these clear TPU cases.
Although there is a frost look to the case, it is on the inside of the TPU and does help hide fingerprints and such. The outside is still smooth, and can feel a bit grimy after a while if you don't clean it. I think this is the case with any smooth back on a case (hence why everyone hates samsung plastic).
I recommend this as a case on the cheap if you're looking for one.

Not bad, do you think it's going to turn yellow? I remember when i had the white one x, i bought a clear tpu case. Man, I went against my instinct and all of the reviews that said it would turn yellow under a week. It happen in 2 days haha, it was a mess.
Your case looks good though, more protection than that iMak case I got...
I also ordered a Nillkin black leather flip case, tried to cancel it because I found a better Rock case but the seller gave me a discount since he shipped it out already. Just waiting to see how crappy it looks haha, this phone is too damn pretty to cover up but I had accidents before, it doesnt matter how careful I am. I know for sure that a ding is going to piss me off
http://www.aliexpress.com/item/New-...er-Case-Cover-Skin-For-HTC-One/832689359.html
I'd bet it would yellow eventually, maybe the frost on the back would help hide it a little. I would probably just get another case if it yellows.
Bestskinsever, they're cheap and have the absolute most precision cut. And they now offer matte film for the body which complements the metal case of the phone nicely. Their screen protector is very clear as well. Just took off a Skinomi because that's all that was available at launch and the Bestskinsever is definitely superior in cut and clarity. My .02
This one looks pretty nice too

I agree, was looking at this one as well as I've ordered a Taurus case for my SGSII
My only issue is the price with delivery is quite high. Having a nosey to see what my local phone shop can source in atm.

Yeah if it had free shipping I would seriously consider it. I like how the case covers the lens
Oh here's the Poetic Atmosphere case http://www.amazon.com/Poetic-Atmosphere-Clear-Manufacturer-Warranty/dp/B00BQ2Y3TA
Look at the photos to get a good idea how it looks on both the black and silver version of it. The bad part is that they won't ship out until mid-May because they're fixing the IR Blaster problem
Found this cool case on Amazon.
It is the frosted clear PC & TPU hybrid case.

They still haven't been delivered yet. They didn't ship until two days ago and I'm pretty sure they are coming from overseas so it might be a bit. I'll definitely post my impressions once I have them in hand.

I ordered this case also. I already have the Griffin reveal now so I'm not sure how this case will compare.
Can anyone clarify if the back of this case is ridged? specifically where the back middle transitions to that alternate black color before it turns into the bezel. I have a feeling that it's just a glossy border, but the pictures don't dhow enough detail to tell.

This case is the closest I think i'll be able to get to an Urban Armor Gear case. Here's to hoping it's a quality case.

Just got my cases in finally, after 3 weeks. Much better quality than I was expecting, and definitely cool looking. A couple complaints though. One is that it's a major PITA to put on and take off. I hate feeling like I'm going to break my phone every time I take the case off (I'm looking at you, Poetic Atmosphere!). My other complaint, and this is a big one, is that it has some seriously wicked edges that make the phone a pretty uncomfortable to hold. For a phone that feels so nice in the hand, it's a shame to have a case on it that essentially kills that comfort altogether. I also have the Griffin Reveal which is a very similar design- not as cool looking as the Supcase but much more comfortable to hold. It's edges are a lot smoother and the material around the sides of the phone is a lot softer. The reveal is *almost* just as comfortable to hold as the naked phone, as it follows the contours of the phone very closely. The Supcase on the other hand focuses more on styling at the cost of those comfortable contours. If you want a case like this, ie. soft bumper around edges but clear plastic back, I'd recommend the Reveal over the Supcase. My $.02.
Edit: The Supcase has the dimple whereas the Reveal does not. I know somebody is bound to ask that question.

I ordered it when it was on preorder which is why it took so long. If you ordered it from the seller on Amazon you'll probably have it in under a week.

Yep, that's how they shipped it to me. I'm pretty sure it ships out of Memphis, Tenn. DHL handles the interstate travels and then transfers it to USPS for the final delivery. No clue why they use DHL, they must have a contract/agreement with them. Some of the colors are available through Prime from the same seller so it pretty much has to be within the US.
I got the Supcase. It took a while to get but it's a nice case. I mostly use it for work since it's so sturdy. I also like the Griffen Reveal better, it fits well and is not as bulky. The Reveal has a completly clear back were as this Supcase is kind of a cloudy back.
Does anyone know if where the clear plastic meets the glossy is flat? If somebody had a picture at a good angle would be awesome!

I wonder if theres any other cases with Nexus logo on back,except the Lg Harshell,wich one is not available yet.
I like this aspect on the back on my phone that's why I asked.
I'm only telling you this because you haven't mentioned you don't want these, but there are a few cases with transparent/translucent backs that you could use to show off the nexus logo. Spigen Ultra Hybrid, Ringke Fusion, I-blason cases (not sure of the name of the case), amcase (not sure of the name of the case) and Supcase Unicorn Beetle (best of the lot I think). And you have clear cases from these and other vendors too. Some cases on eBay have the nexus logo printed on them, but its pretty cheaply done.
This Diztronic Voyeur case comes out on Jan 11th. I'm going to wait to see if people like it compared to their original matte black case, which doesn't show the logo but is IMO the best tpu case available for N5 (fits like a dream). It will definitely be thicker than the original, the question is how much thicker...

If the OP's intent is to be able to show off the Nexus logo, then that's what I'd like as well.
What I'd really like is a bumper case like I had for the Nexus 4. One that just goes around the edge and leaves the back open.
The clear cases look cool, but I would think the clear plastic would eventually start to get scratched up and look pretty bad...comment?

I purchased the official Google bumper (black) and after only two weeks the finish started to flake apart. I haven't done anything other than keep the phone with the case on in a felt lined pocket. The Google bumper is a junk product (at least the ony I received is).
I have since purchased the Tech 21 case at a local T-Mobile store and couldn't be happier. I just wish I had found the Tech 21 first!

Neither of our cases come in contact with the screen. They do however touch the non functioning part of the glass. I think the Voyeur probably wraps around a tiny bit more than our original TPU case. Our cases shouldn't have problems with dry application screen protectors, but if you are using a wet application type such as skinomi or zagg you may have problems as they don't seem to adhere well enough to the display with our case on.

I don't know if you remember going back and forth with me a couple years ago over TPU cases in general (I hated them), just thought you'd be happy to know that your cases have completely changed my views. I absolutely MUST have a Diztronic case for every one of my phones. I hate all other TPU cases still, but man do I love yours.

This case isn't going to happen. There was a trademark dispute and it ended with the case not being able to have the Nexus logo on the back. Sorry, guys. :crying:
