amCase Hybrid Bumper Case - Review with Pictures

I received an amCase Hybrid Bumper Case and overall it’s pretty good.
The case is a TPU type case with black sides and a matte clear back. The quality of the material used is pretty standard and is on par with cruzrlight that I think many of you will be familiar with. The fit of the case is perfect with everything lining up properly and is very snug, but not too tight where it’s difficult to take on or off. I am using a spigen screen protector with the case and it’s not interfering with it by pulling up the corners or anything like that.
I actually like this case better than the Ringke Fusion one that I got. The amCase nailed the seams on the back of the device where the matte clear plastic and the black plastic meet. They look like one piece of plastic unlike the Ringke where you can see clear glue like seams which detracts from the aesthetic significantly. The case works no problem with the nexus 4 wireless orb charger as well.
The one complaint I have about the case is the power button movement. It is pretty tight and doesn’t give that satisfying clicky press. It’s not as bad as I’ve seen on some cases, but it’s nothing like the wonderful movement on the official nexus 4 bumper.
Overall, and for the money, I would say this is a solid case and I would definitely recommend purchasing it if you’re in the market for a TPU case. The price point is right and the materials and fit are right on. I'd give the case 4.5 out of 5.
If anyone has any questions about the case I’d be happy to answer.

Thank you for the review and pictures. It seems that the back isn't clear enough to fully reveal the nexus logo.

I also have the amCase Hybrid Bumper Case for the Nexus 5. Here are my thoughts:
+case contours to curves of Nexus 5, unlike boxy design of Spigen Ultra Hybrid case
+ports are snug and do not seem to let in dust like the Spigen Ultra Hybrid case, which has overly-large port openings
+Volume Low button has clicky feedback. (Power button and Volume Up button do not have clicky feedback on my case)
+ Flash module cutout is large, i.e. good. (Other cases with tiny, circular flash module cutouts produce distorted photos when flashed is used because the flash bounces off the sides of the tiny cutout and reflects back into the camera lens.)
+- especially snug fit
+- frosted semi-transparent back panel is...different
+- volume and power buttons are covered (they are not cutouts)
-slippery, not grippy

[CASE] Acase Superleggera Pro vs Spigen Slim Armor

Acase Superleggera Pro
vs
Spigen Slim Armor
For Nexus 5​
Prologue:
Going to have a good ol' fashion case off here for the Nexus 5. At first I was excited, thinking that I would actually take measurements and pictures, but then I remembered that I'm too lazy for that kind of stuff. Therefore, this will only be a personal comparison with color-codie goodness. A little warning that already I'm biased towards Acase because I've used a superleggera pro for my iPhone 4s (never going back to Apple) and after two years of dropping, that phone looks like its brand new (with loads of finger prints :good: ). Besides the protection, I also just love the smooth feel of matte...
Summary:
Both cases have their advantages, but personally I went with Acase.
Main Points:
If you didn't know, both of these cases are supposedly dual-layered cases. This means that these cases have two pieces to their design. Whether that actually adds to the protection and shock absorption or not, I have no idea. What I do know is that psychologically, I feel like my phone has better protection.
Superleggera Pro:
Silicone Case with a Poly-carbonate shell
Nice smooth feel but super slippery.
Example: Case face down, back up. Try to slide your hand against the back. Barely any friction or resistance when sliding my hand across.
Good enough lift in the back to protect the camera but no extra corner stands like the Slim Armor for airflow. Great lift in the front as well.
[*]Clicky feedback when pressing volume and power buttons. You can press the power button without accidently pressing the volume buttons too.
(Note: See Slim Armor main points for details)
A little Acase branding on the bottom of the back of the case.
Slim Armor:
Hard TPU with a Poly-carbonate Shell
Nice smooth feel, making it a little slippery but not too slippery.
Example: Case face down, back up. Try to slide your hand against the back. I felt resistance from my hand sticking to the case.
[*]Nice lift in the back for airflow and nice lift in the front to protect the screen.
[*]Buttons lose their clicky feedback. Big problem for me. Also had some occasional issues with locking the screen since the amount of force needed to press the power button makes you also press the volume buttons if you have your finger there.
Spigen branding on the lower part of the back of the case and on the right side. Looks cooler than the Acase branding but who cares really.
Review:
To me. dual-layer means two different layers put together to make one great case. With the Slim Armor, I was expecting silicone plus the poly-carbonate like the Acase I was already used to. As far as silicon vs hard tpu for the base part of the case, I haven't read or seen anything that sets a clear winner.
With the positioning of the second layer of poly-carbonate Acase wins here. I mean when I drop my phone it hits the corners or at least near the corners more often than it lands perfectly on its side. With the Slim Armor, the hard shell poly-carbonate pretty much just covers the side and the corners are covered only by the hard tpu. Spigen claims that there are "air-pockets" in those corners in their advertising but I don't know how effective these "air-pockets" are. Anyway, If I wanted hard tpu to protect my corners, I'd just get a hard tpu case. The Acase has all around dual-layering except for the buttons and cut-outs like the headphone slot. With the Acase I feel I'm getting the true dual-layered protection I'm looking for where both the hard shell and the silicone cover the corners for that added and padded protection.
Button feedback is another pet-peeve/preference for me. Acase, since its silicone, has perfect feedback. Easy to press down and you feel and hear that click. Spigen, no feedback...at all. Thanks to hard tpu, its hard to press your buttons down. Now I'm not saying that its impossible to press the button down but the resistance of hard tpu not only kills your clicky feedback but it also can make you squeeze your phone hard enough to press the volume at the same time as the power button.
Both cases pick up on finger prints pretty easily. The Acase can also pick up on dust, lint, etc with its silicone. Personally, I can put up with this for a better feeling case. After a little back and forth case swapping, I realized that the Acase has more lift than the Slim armor in the front Due to the thickness of the silicone at that point. The case also wraps around the edges more (something I liked) without making my screen protector peel up at the edges.
Both cases have plenty of space for the micro-usb and speaker cut-outs. However, with most cases there are issues with the headphone port. My tiny apple headphone jacks fit perfectly for both cases, however my bulky (1 cm diameter) speaker jack only fit with the Acase. Since the Acase uses stretchy silicone, I could push the headphone in at the expense of stretching the silicone a little. With the Slim Armor, there was no way to get it in without taking off the case at the top. (I will note that its easier to take the top part of the Slim Armor off than it is to take the Superleggera Pro)
Width and length are the same for both cases, however the Acase is slightly thicker. For me, this means more protection at the cost of a barely noticeable additional thickness. Both cases feel great in the hand, I just felt like the Superleggera Pro had more pro's and a better feel than the Slim Armor.
Edit:
Just got a chance to test the Acase with a wireless charger (CHOETECH Stadium) and it works! The charger isn't that special, so I'm going to assume that most chargers should work with the Acase. I still recommend you conduct your own research on wireless chargers and compare it to the CHOETECH so you can confirm that whatever you buy will work as well. I'm not supporting CHOETECH in any way, just stating the charger I used to test the ability to wirelessly charge through the Acase.

Well said!
I also own both cases, and will vouch for everything ximaginex said. Personally, I feel the Acase provides a better level of protection than the Slim Armor because it has both silicone & polycarbonate protecting the corners vs. just TPU. The Acase is thicker, but feels better in your hands and the button response feels like using the phone bare.
Pro Tip: If you wish to remove the branding on the Acase, borrow a cotton ball and a dab of nail polish remover from your girlfriend. Lightly rub the lettering and it should come right off.

The had no idea about the removal technique, thanks. Not sure if I want to do it or not though. The branding is like a classy tramp stamp for my phone, but having it smooth and clean might be pretty nice too.

Clicky Feedback on spigen
I've got 2 different revisions of the spigen slim armor. as you can see the only difference is the way the pads for the keys are attached. The one with only one connection on the top side have a very big ce "clicky" feedback, the other one is very difficult to press. So you could try to cut the bottom connection and see if it gets better.

I also got the Acase case. One thing that bothers me is that the inner silicon layer is too soft, I wish it was tpu instead. The bottom lift of the phone is not reinforced high enough by the hard plastic shell, making the inner layer too loose.

I'd love to see an owner's picture of the Acase. ☺

Great review... But holy hell that was a lot of Comic Sans! That font always make me think of this picture.

Just got my Acase today and it is much thicker than I imagined it would be... But the bulkiness is kind of nice and the phone still feels great in hand so far. I ordered mine from CTCstore on Amazon and it was listed as Slim Superleggera PRO but my packaging only says Superleggera PRO... I emailed the vendor for clarification but am wondering if the op is referencing the slim version or regular, or if they are actually the sane thing.

Here's a picture of mine.

To me I thought that the spigen slim armor felt like a dollar store product. Its fits OK but is just hard and cheap feeling. The volume buttons were sorta hard to push. I absolutely love my acase.

Is the power button the same design (only connected on one side) on the new revision? Spigen allegedly sent me the revised TPU but my buttons look the same as the original design. I actually cannot tell the difference between my original one and the new one. I think Spigen might have messed up and sent me the original revision as a replacement.
To keep this on topic, I also have both cases as well. I actually liked the functionality of the Superleggera best (clicky buttons, corner coverage, etc) but to me the look and quality of materials of the spigen were significantly better than the superleggera. See I would have said the superleggera was the generic cheepo case and the spigen was the high end case. Just shows how widely peoples opinions can vary on two identical items.

Waiting for more pics from you!

amCase Ultra Slim-Fit Case Review + Pictures

amCase Ultra Slim-Fit Case
There has been a lot of slim cases like the Rearth Ringke slim, spigen and others. The amCASE ultra slim is a bit different than the others.
First, its thin alright. Fits well and not much wiggle room when in the case. The back has a nice soft matte grip finish, No corner was sharp but a nice smooth rounding on all sides/corners. There is some lift ont he bezel around the phone so it lifts the phone just a bit to prevent scraching the glass on the front when setting it face down on a table.
The amCase differes in that there is no bezel by the buttons on the phone. While it makes it have even less protection than other slim cases; it makes it a lot easier to take it off and on. The Rearth slim I have has just a good fit but the buttons would always get caught when taking it off or on.
It doesn't add much protection on the bottom or sides which is nice to have complete free access to all the ports/seakers.
This is definitely not a case if you're clumsy with your phone but there to prevent the small drops or scratches. Very minimalistic and good construction witht he added bonus of the easiest to take on and off of the phone than other slim cases

This is my kind of case. I presently have the rearth slim. It's the only case for me, so far. This looks like a great option for those of us who like the more professional look vs the bling, bulky, rubber, two piece, colored type cases. I'll have to try one. Is the logo (boo hiss btw) raised or etched in any way or is it just printed?
Nexus5

almost bought this case, but reviewers had issues with the matte finish coming off after a week.
Please update your review after couple weeks on the fit and finish.
thanks

just printed on. I'm sure it'll start rubbing off soon enough

I only used the amcase on my nexus 4. The first one I had was amazing. The second started peeling almost immediately.
I just received my new one for the nexus 5. It has a slippery soft feel that is really disappointing.

This guy has a video review of it and shows the case peeling pretty badly at all 4 corners.

Opinions/Experiences needed. Ringke Fusion Hybrid vs Tudia Cygen Dual Layer

I have been looking for a "real protection" case for my OnePlus One while still not excessively bulky. I currently have the official OnePlus Flip Case.
The ones I'm looking at are the Ringke Fusion Hybrid and Tudia Cygen Dual Layer.
For those that have experience with both, which of the two do you find superior in:
Fit and finish (Ringke clear fitting issues aside)
Added bulk + feel in the hand
Ease of pressing the power/volume buttons
overall protection (including added lip for the screen).
You are of course welcome to add your own subjective comments and impressions on either one individually but what I'm most interested in is comparison from those that have used/owned both.
Thanks a lot!

Hey I'm having the same issue as you right now. The smoke black ringke fusion doesn't have the bad fitting issue apparently, although I've seen from a lot of reviews that the ringke case will get a lot of dust trapped in it

I own both and they're both cheaply made cases.

I tried out both and both fit well and are good for protection. They both add bulk and you lose that nice light weight feel of one.
Personally I felt ringke looked ugly vs cygen looks nice but cygen is bit slippery at the back due to smooth hard plastic and the plastic to the tpu case isn't completely flush either but when you compare both I feel cygen is better choice due to looks and protection and the negatives I mentioned are not deal breakers with cygen.

Thanks for replying! What about the tactility of the power and volume buttons. Which feels better to the press/click?
And which of the two do you feel adds more bulk?

I feel ringke adds more bulk but it had better tactile feedback on the buttons. Now i got used to pressing cygen buttons a bit more though.

Any case that's not cheaply made? Received the cruzerlite case and doesn't like its quality, so it's going back.

I received and am using my Ringke Fusion case. It's very good. curves over the screen in front and allows for you to put the device face down without the screen touching the table. Paired this with the Nilliken 9H glass screen protector and I've got the major parts covered. Total cost was about $19 from Amazon.

I'm coming from the Note 3. The first thing I've noticed is that the One+ in general is not as wide as the Note 3. In practical terms that means when doing the crossword on the subway on a daily commute, I can one-handed reach across the entire screen to enter letters on the opposite side of the keyboard. This is a strain with the Note 3.
I mention this because even with the Ringke (which I don't think feels or is cheaply made, but that's someone else's opinion, not mine), I can easily still do what I said before about reaching the keyboard's opposite letters.
In my opinion, I think the Ringke is very well made.
One last thing, someone on here stated that the volume and power buttons are hard to access. I disagree. Even the power connector cutout at the bottom is wide enough to accommodate the OEM power cord that came with the One+.
All my own opinions, of course.

I own the ringke fusion clear case with the 9h nilkin glass protector and it fits great. It has protected my phone from pocket drops/slides several times( concrete, wood floor, and tile)... It hasnt slipped out of my hands while holding it cause the sides have edges... Looks great cause the backside can be seen, and the phone recognized by others. Haven't utilized the diy personalized cutout to fill the back so u can display any picture on the back u want. only con I have is that the the headphone Jack opening is small and sometimes have to take off the case to plug it in to certain cords. Also the nilkin 9h is the first glass protector I've ever used, and will never go back to the otherother types, having a glass surface feels like there's no protector on it

I own both. I have the red cygen case and the smoke black ringke case. My ringke has a bad fit but besides that its alright. I really wish they had actually made it black. Instead it was more of a dark translucent grey. They tudia cygnets n fits tight and is very nice. I love it and its the one I use on a daily basis
clean installs are love. clean installs are life

Good Cases?

What are some good cases for the phone?

I really like my Nillkin Natural TPU case. there are a couple of other threads with cases and pics.

that clear right? doesn't that interfere with flash when taking pictures?

Nilkin Frosted Shield case recommended.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/20134158223...49&var=500540193931&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT

I have both of these cases as well, and they are both excellent choices. I wish the clear case was a tad thicker, but I like that my phone's back cover is viewable through the clear case (so pretty!) and it doesn't add extra bulk.
Unlike some silicon cases, it has a smooth finish that won't stick to your pocket (it also might slide out of your hand easily enough, if your hand is damp).
There is a cutout for the flash, so I've not noticed any issues with it. The covers for the headphone jack and usb connector are a nice touch as well, but the usb cover on mine seems to not want to sit completely flush. Not a huge deal to me, even with OCD.
I like that the clear case covers the bottom edge of the phone, whereas the matte case leaves it exposed. The bottom edge of my phone already seems to have some wear because of the exposure.
That said, I really do like the feel and color of the matte case (I have red), and it fits a little more snugly that the clear case, IMHO.
I'd like to see a heavier duty case, something like a Griffin Survivor style case with 2-part rubber and hard plastic component. Unfortunately for now, the Nillikin cases aren't going to afford your phone much more than scratch protection but they are nice to hold and are better than nothing! Definitely pair with a nice tempered glass screen protector, if you can find one that fits well, that is...

Window case relly a good choice!

The Rearth Ringke Fusion case is very good, fits well, I find it comfortable and of a durable material. Helps with the power button as the case plastic makes it pop out a bit and it can be pressed with a lot of ease.

I've read there are issues with the Rearth Ringke Fusion case and the camera's flash. Have you experienced problems in that area?

The Ringke clear case creates a nasty halo on photos whenever you use the flash --- much worse than the Nilkin (halo is barely visible). I still prefer it over the Nilkin case because it feels much sturdier: like it'll actually protect my phone *if* I drop it. It doesn't have a USB port cover on it unlike the Nilkin, though.
The Nilkin case just feels too flimsy for my tastes. I also don't use the flash on mobile phones anyway... most of them are too harsh.
If you really want a subtle highlight when taking photos, have someone else use their mobile's torch app to shine on your subjects

I have this case and it's good. I did a review of it too. Very sturdy and not glossy so firm in hand. Comes with a screen protector $10 buck is a great deal!

If you want a wallet case try this. $3.99 with promo code ASUSZEN2. I purchase one myself too.

I am not a heavy camera user, so I have not tried to see if there is any difference. I have used the camera with no problem. I am very confortable with it, it does its job how it should, protects the phone.

I am happy with the nilkin, actually dropped two times and it did its job (thankfully Murphy played nice on me and it always fell on a corner, if it would drop dead flat, screen first, I am sure it would be dead). The back texture helps holding it in my hand, plastic rear cover of 550 is very very slippery also not much bulkier than stock (already bulky and heavy phone).

As someone who requires a lanyard to keep the phone from flying away while in the pocket ...
http://www.ebay.ca/itm/400900339275
... I can always find a solution.
Sure, it doesn't protect the device while it's in my hands,but I have more problems with phones when I am not holding them.

I have the Rearth Ringke Fusion and it does add a glare to pics if the flash is on but good thing I rarely use my flash. Looks like a simple fix just cut the piece of plastic that separates the flash and camera but other than that great protection for the phone for now.

Another happy user of the Nillkin Natural TPU, it's an excellent fit and adds very little bulk to the phone. The edges make it much easier to grip the phone as well. Best case I've tried so far.

Nillkin tpu, with a tempered glass screen protector

Yesterday I dropped the phone from the sofa, about 1 meter, it suffered no damage. I'm using the original Asus bumper case. It's a bit expensive, but has a very nice finish.
