The large horizontal belt holster works just fine for me, If not a bit thick for the phone. Perfect length and width.

i asked tech21 regarding the cases and SP. they said there are currently no plans to make these for nexus 5 at the moment. hmm.
just to let you guys know, bell store in yorkdale mall has the flip tech21 cases in stock for 34.99
anyone see these cases in the US?
Does not matter since they are not making anything for the nexus 5 . they sell them at best buy for the iPhone and Samsung phones.

I'm loving mine. Picked it up at my local T-Mobile store. It fits like a glove and doesn't add excessive weight/bulk to the device. I'm very happy.

A friend of mine got the case a few days ago an the clear back already has quite a bit of scratches on it which is why i decided against it. It is a nice lookin case tho
All cases with clear backs will get scratched. It all depends on how much you take care of it.

Understand - 1 photo even shows proof of being authentic with hologram sticker!
I've had friends order the fake neo Hybrid cases and they look and feel EXACTLY like the real ones..... Why pay 4 times the price? I'm not trying to put anyone down or instigate anything just want genuine answers. You could own one in every color if you got the fake ones for the price of an authentic one.

Any original Spigen - as it appears this one - is a steal when around $25 or less
It was a good price, as I paid £19.99 for mine, although with the button problems so sent it back. Went and bought a fake one for less than half that from China. Meant to not have the same button problems.

Support authenticity. I guess you're ok with supporting China making counterfeit items. I'm not. There's a reason why it's such a big deal. Then you purchasing fakes have no correlation with the country's debt to China. You are a horrible person.

Hey smart one, I've never bought a counterfeit item in my life, learn how to read before calling me a horrible person. I was wanting to start a dialogue (conversation just in case you don't understand the word) about peoples opinion. Just an FYI our chin high debt to China has NOTHING to do with people choosing fake cases over authentic ones.....more than likely Spigen produces its cases in China so please quit trying to start a politically fueled discussion.

Who cares what people buy. If you can afford to buy the authentic then good for you. There are people on these forums that actually want to save money like me and I couldn't care less if my money went to china if I could get "Fake" products for half the price, and you have no right to call people horrible for that.

I've seen a bunch of threads regarding that the Lifeproof cases aren't out yet... But on eBay there are a few cases for sale. I'm guessing these are fake but the pictures look pretty legit. Any experience with these? I'm still new so I can't post links but if you type in "S3 Lifeproof" on eBay it should pop up.

I was about to start a thread and remembered there already was one. So since this thread I've noticed a large increase in the number of fake lifeproof's, I'm assuming some company in china got the specs and started making replicas. Looks like the prices are in the $40 to $50 range, so who's going to be the guinea pig and buy one? Part of me wants to try it since the real lifeproof cases cost $80, but another part of me thinks that its stupid to spend $50 on something that could be complete crap. Especially if it ships from china or hong kong, if I don't like it I'd have to pay the shipping all the way back. Plus I'd have to wait 3 weeks just to get it and possibly another 3 weeks to get the refund........
Anybody want to sponsor me? I'll put a big pictorial and detailed review?:laugh:
LifeProof
I'll be ordering one from a US Seller for a slightly higher markup. I can post a video review on Youtube, and here as well. I'll get it some time next week, as I'll probably order it with my birthday money or when my paycheck comes in. And hey, if you want to push $5 towards the cause, I wouldn't be opposed They look exactly like the iPhone version, even down to the packaging and colors available. one seller even mentioned that they aren't LifeProof branded, but had a 1 month return/refund/warrenty. In addition, Paypal and my bank offer a certain amount of time to make sure a product actually works (3 or 6 months, I think). I'm game for giving it a shot!
I imagine that the install would be the same as for an iPhone... and I'd want to check the seals BEFORE installing my phone... that'd be really sad.

Right, that's the whole point of this entire thread. These are FAKE or replicas or whatever you want to call them, that's why this thread got started. That's why they only cost $40 to $50 dollars. That's why some of them are from CHINA. I think I'll probably end up buying one of these once I find a white one that's being sold here in the US. I know they all are probably being made in the same place in Hong Kong or somewhere but I don't see any reason to order something and wait for a month for it to get here.

Awesome, looking forward to the review. I was thinking of jumping on the white as well. I'm just concerned with it being a matte finish.
Anything that isn't black with a matte finish tends to stain easily which is probably one of the reasons why the white Nexus 5 uses a different material. I'm hoping that isn't the case with yours, so I can pick one up!

I interpreted it as "we don't have them in stock yet". It was pure luck that I happened to be browsing the Bell site for N5 accessories.
I'll post here when I get an update.
Hope these come out in the UK, would be nice to have something slimmer than the bumper case (which is nice btw)
Yeah I couldn't wait for your review! I ordered a white case from the bell mobility site.
We'll see if it's just pre-order or if I get it in a week.
Most cases are made of some weird rubber, either they feel cheap or they get stuck in the jeanspocket.
Some cases look great but they always tend to build so much bulk..
Has anyone tried an alu bumper like this one? Looks great atleast..

It looks great yeah but 35 dollars is too much for just a case which is why I didn't buy the official one. If it was a battery case for that price or even a little more like 45-50 then it would be worth it for me

With battery cases like this. You will lose a bar or two on cell phone reception as well as wireless. This was the case for the Galaxy S4. I believe you will lose the function of NFC as well.

Your belief is wrong.
NFC works just fine.

The nexus 5 version will be similar to the note 3
Edit: majority of the people said that signal is not affected.

How protective are aluminum cases though? I feel like TPU/plastic combos would probably protect the best since it absorbs shock better than metal.

Not very protective.

This is a cheaper one. I believe it is the same product. Shipping could take a while though. Haven't bought it though so can't comment on the quality and other issues. Looks good though.

Thought they had a $5 off coupon....
Why does that one bottom corner stick out like that? I'm guessing that's how the case clamps together. Seems like it wouldn't feel very nice.
Yeah not bad, but I'm not a fan of Florida sticking out of the corner there. Always making a mess of things!
Also with it being an Aluminum bumper, I'm pretty sure it's aesthetics only. That's a relatively soft metal, especially with how thin is looks. Any real bump and it will probably dent/scratch easily. It's like using a thicker version of the HTC One as a protective case.

Has anybody got their bumper yet? Could you please post some real shots. I'm not convinced of the screws side

I am holding off as well. Even with the screws, not sure if it'd fit in my Seidio holster without scuffing the crap out of it. However whenever I visit this thread and look online at the pics, it seems unbalanced to me because of the screws.
Waiting for feedback on the aluminum bumper. I'm interested to find out if the bumper keep the back of the phone off of surfaces. It looks like it wouldn't protect the back of the phone at all.
