How does the Ringke Fusion hold up to scratches? - Nexus 5 Accessories

I understand the ringke fusion has a clear back, I am worried how scratch resistant the clear backing on this case is? i was wondering if you guys have experience with this case on this phone or others.

I have had mine about a week now and I don't see any scratches. If it does scratch bad enough it is only $10 so I would just get another or try some thing else. Check out my high quality photos of the case here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2517478

Mine is in the mail

I'm a little late to the party, but I've had mine for a week or so and no problems with it scratching so far. The corners on the rubber bumper are slightly raised to keep the clear plastic part of the case off tables and other surfaces.

Thin case comparison/review- Incipio Feather vs. Casemate Barely There

I just got my Incipio Feather in the mail, and I must say I am very let down. When I looked at the picture on the website, I really thought that the case was going to wrap around the front but it does not. In all fairness, I did look at the picture again and it doesn't wrap around in it like I thought it did. The picture is very deceiving, the way they shade the Evo makes it look like the case wraps around, at least to me it does. Anyways...
The Incipio is a lot thicker than the Barely There, and doesn't come up as high on the sides either. That actually makes it feel rather awkward in the hand because there is a very pronounced lip around the whole phone. Also, the Incipio case has a full cutout, like a bite, from the front of the case for the volume rocker whereas the Barely There has a rectangular hole and covers the plastic in front of the rocker.
The Incipio also provides far less protection for the camera lens. With the Barely There, the lens is completely protected, it covers the edge of the glass, fully recessing the lens into the case. It has a separate cutout for the flash, lens, and speaker. The Incipio just has one gaping hole for all three to share.
My biggest complaint about the Incipio is that because it doesn't come up all the way around the sides, the face of the Evo sticks out from it and consequently the corners are not fully protected. If this thing takes a tumble on to concrete, there is a good chance your corner could still get scratched. With the Barely There case, while still not very protective, at least your corners won't get beat up.
The only positive about the Incipio is that I like the way the material feels better than the Barely There. It has a softer, almost velvety finish to it. The Barely There still has a nice rubberized texture to it, just not as nice as the Incipio's.
I see no reason at all to purchase the Incipio case when you can buy the Barely There case instead. The Barely There is thinner, feels more comfortable in the hand, and provides more coverage/protection. I am sticking with my Barely There case and will probably give the Incipio away.
Casemate Barely There
Incipio Feather
Both cases cost $19.99.
Thanks for the review ... appreciate it. Have you looked at the other Case Mate Evo case that is two part (Tough Case)? Just wondering about the protection and quality.
No I haven't, at least not in person. I'm sure it's a great case, and I know other people have had good experiences with it, but I personally don't like the way it looks compared to the OB Commuter case or the Seidio Active Limited, and I already have both of those.

Couple of quick questions for you ... since you have both. I had the Seidio Active Limited from Amazon, really liked the feel of it, but the plastic back began to peel off. I didn't replace it with another ... afraid the same thing would happen. Any issues for you? So I've been using the Otter Box Impact case, but since I keep my phone in my front pocket ... it can be a lint magnet. If you don't mind ... tell me about your experience with the Commuter case from OB. Thanks.

I have the exact same issue as you with the Seidio. I have actually gone through 3 of them now, and they all started peeling within a week. The first one I had one of the tabs broke off while putting the case on. It's a shame that the build quality is so crappy on them because I really like the design, and I think it's a little more rugged than the OB Commuter. Not by much though, it just has thicker silicone.
My only complaint about the Commuter, and I know a lot of people share the same feeling, is that the cover for the charging and HDMI ports was poorly designed. It is a pain to get it closed, and it never stays in place for very long. Also, the way they cut the silicone for that cover, it is subject to tearing. Mine hasn't torn, and neither has my buddy's, but I know some people have had that issue. The good news is that Otterbox, unlike Seidio, has no problem whatsoever sending out a replacement case if by some chance that piece tears off, or any other defect for that matter. Overall I think it is a great case and I use it regularly, and even with the small issue of that cover, I can still recommend it to people.
Thank you ... I'm thinking about trying the "Barely There" since I'm an "in pocket" guy.
You can barely tell that there is a case on the phone with the Barely There, hence the name. If you're an in pocket guy, then that is definitely the case you want. I use it way more than all my other cases combined.
get the barely there case, i have it and love it, and as they say, its hardly noticable. plus case-mate came out with a full frontal screen cover, so you have case protection on back and sides and a full screen cover to cover the remaining parts

You said my words exactly. I too am very let down with the Incipio Feather case. I also thought that it would at least have a lip that came over the front edge but nothing. I dropped my phone on the carpet(fortunately it was carpet) and it popped right out of the case. If you want protection I don't think this is the case to use. They could have done much better. I would have preferred one of the Incipio NGP cases to this thing.
I've been using the Barely There case for almost 2 months. I love the feel of it. The material holds well. The screen protector it came with is awesome. I hated the way stealthguards and invisible shield felt on the glass. The screen protector that the Barely There came with feels just like glass when it's on.
The only thing is that this case is just to protect against scratches and minor drops on carpet maybe. I dropped it once on concrete and the case flew off and I have a small dent on the top front corner of my Evo.
This is my experience exactly

I have the Seidio Rugged and it comes with the Innocase Surface as well and I really like the Surface, its not too thick and protects the camera lenses from scratches. I just need to get the belt clip for the Surface so outside of work I don't have all the bulk.

Barely there cases are counter-intuitive. If you want to protect a case against impact should you drop it, the case needs to be heavy enough to absorb most of the impact itself and not the phone. These barely there cases may protect from scratches on the phone body but that's it. So I guess you can safely slide the phone around on your desk but don't drop it.

the bottom flap on my commuter stays in place fine, also fits great in your pocket, unless your female and wear them skin tight the barely there doesn't have any lay on the table protection for the front glass, which is just too risky in my opinion.

Thanks, just order it. I had the ID case for the iPhone from them and that thing took a beating and never gave up. Hope to expect the same from them again
I still think the Otterbox Commuter is the best case out there. It doesn't add that much bulk, feels sturdy and protects like none other. Well worth the money.

Good all round case

Hey people.
I know this question has come up time and time again but I am just overwhelmed with different cases. I must have spent over an hour looking at all different ones.
I am getting a SGSII in a few days and currently using a Wildfire S with a simple blue silicone case on it.
Now I want something which will give it as much protection as possible without adding too much bulk. Ideally one which will cover all the phone except the screen of course.
I have looked at ones like SGP and case-mate but there are so many different ones I dunno what to choose. I just want one which will not take away any of the looks of the phone.
How about the Incipio NGP case (black)?
I'm looking at the SGP neo hybrid but I have seen people complain about the back sagging which makes me a bit skeptical about buying it.

All Silicone sgp cases tend to sag within 2 months. I'd personally go for a barely there case, in my experiences the Galaxy is sturdy enough. You only need something to protect it from scratching. I've been using it for some months without case now and have dropped it from a bunk bed and catapulted it across the room (no questions) and the only damage is some scratches. A screen protector is a must though, my previous gorrila glass display proved not to be scratch resistant at all.

A case is a must for me really. Especially when I am out getting drunk. I usually tend to drop my phone onto concrete while stumbling about haha. I think I will get the barely there one as I have seen a lot of good reviews.
Also how well does it protect the top & bottom because from the pictures the top and bottom aren't protected. Does this hinder the protection in any way?
Recommendation for Capdase Xpose. Awesome high-quality case.
Of the cases I have, I'd opt for the Barely There, or the Incipio. Slim, some protection, don't sag as quickly/easily as the Neo Hybrid. I was able to make the Incipio very, very slightly loose at the back after 4 hours of gaming the other day, but it bounced back, the same can't be said for the Neo Hybrid which gets worse with each heat cycle.
I like the Otterbox Commuter as well, but it's much bigger than the others, I'll use it, but only when travelling in rough places.
One I'm very curious about, but it's a pain for me to actually get is the Walnutt bumper.

these cases look really nice, i might have to buy one to try.
bought one thanks for the heads up !
Ordered one of each, thanks for the heads up.
THE PRIME GT-I9250
I ordered the TPU case. I read some reviews of Nillkin cases in the other phone forums and they were very good.
I ordered one but cancelled after they quoted 3-6 weeks delivery time! I don't know what's going on with China these days, the last few times I ordered things it took forever. They do look beautiful - the textured back looks grippy.
Had a couple of Nillkin cases for my SGS2 they were fine. These should be as good as those.

TPU case is similar to a "gel" or silicone case. I like it because it covers the top and bottom of the phone where the hardcase doesn't
I just bought a One X and two cases:
Nillkin TPU and hard case.
I hope everything will arrive today! But maybe just this weekend
I would image the TPU cases don't have cutouts because you don't need a cutout with such soft rubber. But that's just a guess. (for now!)

Probably no cutout because you can press them through a case.
In order to protect your phone when you drop it, a case has to slow your phone down gradually and absorb the force of the impact when it hits the pavement which is what a soft case does. A hard case just transfers that force straight to the phone so they're almost useless if you drop it. Hard cases are for preventing scratches only... but then if you get a grain of sand inbetween the case and the phone, it will make more scratches than if you didnt have it.

And a TPU case prevents the grain of sand getting there?
Also i'm guessing that if you press the rocker through the case you won't feel any 'click'?
some TPU cases have the click feel to it and some have a thicker TPU casing which doesn't have the click feel. I purchased a TPU case off of HandheldItems and the power/volume buttons all have a click feel to them.
gkhn said:

Probably a better chance than a hard case since the soft cases tend to wrap around the phone more completely, and end up flush against the phone body with no gap.

Nillkin case.
i got a nillkin hard case in white and i have to say its quite nice. It may look like an ordinary case but the back of it is textured with grip and the sides are glossy and shiny like the one X. It raise the back of the phone very slightly so the camera lens doesn't get scratched easily. for under 20bucks i must say im quite impressed with it. it comes with a screen protector which i haven't tried to put on since i suck at it and a tiny cleaning cloth.
Ordered hard case two days ago.
I just ordered the black TPU case. Will let y'all know when it arrives and if it is worth the purchase.

*****Best Bumper*****

Hey Guys, just a quick question.
You know how their those aluminium bumper and then there's this sgp ones. Well I was just wondering if someone can answer these questions for me.
1. Say for instance i dropped my s3 and it happened to land on its screen would the bumper ( sgp and Metal) prevent the phone from cracking, better than the standard jelly case on ebay?
2. Which bumper would prevent the crack more. the metal or the sqp?
3. is it worth getting a metal bumper or a sqp one?
4. What is the deference between a jelly case, metal bumper and sqp bumper.

not sure about the other 2, but the metal bumper won't help much. it doesn't even lift the camera lens off the surface.
it also has little to no padding, if you can call a few strips of tape around the inside as paddings...
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
A lot of people cite no padding as the reason to not have metal bumpers. But, these bumpers do, in fact, protect your phone. The real value in having a solid metal bumper is to distribute the force of impact over a wider surface area, therefore lessening the likelihood of damage.
So yes, metal bumpers do protect.
Are You Sure
yeah so the metal bumper would be more ideal? Just thinking if its metal wouldn't create more of a shock than the sqp cause it is metal?
It's hard to say what bumper can absorb greater impact without a controlled lab test.
Keep in mind our phones do not have any moving parts, so the only real impact you have to worry about is the point at which the material breaks or the joined parts separate.
Personally, I think the difference in protection is negligible, and would worry more about the reception problems associated with metal bumpers.
I guess you would wrap a Ferrari with a case too
i'll only buy a metal case ONLY IF the inside is rubberized to absorb the shock when it falls.

I'm not sure there's a whole lot of impact dissipation when it comes to a solid material, though. Pretty sure that's the main reason why cases like the Otterbox and such still use a soft silicon layer, aside from in-hand comfort. ESPECIALLY when just about every metal bumper i've seen has almost nothing separating the phone itself from the metal bumper aside from what looks like slightly thicker than average tape.
I have that exact same bumper as linked in the OP from ebay and I can tell you straight up that it has a few bits of tape and the back part of the bumper doesn't even lift the camera lens off the surface. The power and volume buttons are stupidly hard to press (you can only press them from the back) and the headphone port is narrow enough to the point that you would need a real skinny aux cable.
I don't think it even comes close to protecting anything. it looks kinda unique but that's about as far as it goes.
those little tapes are there so that the metal doesn't scratch the phone's edges, that's it.
I've dropped my phone several times with my metal bumper from 2 foot up to about 4 foot and it's survived every time. I did take my bumper off for a while and accidentally dropped it from about 2 foot and the screen broke lol.
The only issue with the metal bumper is the loss of reception. I get about 10% less reception than when I have no bumper on. I do get GPS perfectly fine, same with wifi and NFC(obviously as the case only covers the sides not the back).

It does not protect the top and bottom like many snap on cases but is thin and has a raised area around the camera. I'd be comfortable laying the phone on a flat surface now. I have the spigen rugged armor which is thicker and protects the entire phone.

Looks sweet. Thanks.
Can't comment on Nillkin or Spigen cases, never had them. I went Ringke Fusion on the LG G4 and have never looked back. Received my v20 case today (clear/smoke) and put it on. It's VERY marginally recessed compared to where the camera bump is. Is perfectly flat/balanced on an even surface, so you can operate the phone one-handed on the desk if you need to.
My recommendation is to leave the plastic film on the back of the phone where the camera is, any protection you can give it without affecting photo quality will help. I just need a good screen protector now...
Hope that helps.

Nillkin also makes one that is a TPU case. I had it on my N6P & it was really nice. I opted for the Encased this time because I wanted a hard case, TPU never keeps it's full shape after a while..

Spigen rugged armor.. it's thin, nice looking and protects all that is needed

I tried the Spigen Liquid Crystal Case and it is the most minimalist but doesn't have enough protection in my opinion.
I ended up returning it not for that reason, but due to the "yellow" tone of the case itself...I contacted Spigen and they are looking into replacements.
I purchased the Ringke [Fusion] Clear PC Back TPU Bumper in Smoked Black...perfect fit and better protection that looks great with the Titan V20.

If you want something with protection while being slim, I'd suggest the UAG LG V20 Plasma Feather-Light Rugged. Been using it since I got my V20 and it's slim and light with plenty of grip, originally I thought that it'll be big and bulky like the OtterBox cases but it's slim enough and knowing it's UAG you don't really have to worry about protection. Even tho it's pricy it's worth it.
You can consider using the Verus crystal bumber case, this and others like spigen to name a few are your only option, just keep the protection film on for added protection, for me I also added a tempered glass protector for both camera lens without any affect what so ever.

I ended up buying this case. It arrived today and my search is now over. There's simply no way a V20 case could be slimmer than the Nillikin while still offering camera protection. It's awesome. EXACTLY what I was looking for, so thank you!
The top and bottom are protected well enough with the lip extensions on each end.
I bought this off aliexpress, and it's pretty great. perfect fit and some improvement in grip.

downside is, it's glossy and quite the fingerprint magnet especially in a humid country like SG, and the alignment is slightly off for the fingerprint/home button.
otherwise, the port covers are awesome and it'll definitely prevent the lint buildup.
looking to get a tempered glass next.
also, for SG sets, it comes with a promotional pack of 3 back protectors and 2 iRing and a screen protector. will upload pictures soon!

I ended up buying this case. It arrived today and my search is now over. There's simply no way a V20 case could be slimmer than the Nillikin while still offering camera protection. It's awesome. EXACTLY what I was looking for, so thank you!
The top and bottom are protected well enough with the lip extensions on each end.

I agree, one of the thinniest case around with the best protection, the case has a built in dust cap for both the charging port and headphone socket.

I'm guessing you have no idea who you were quoting there, eh?

Actually it was you who I quoted, but I though you went for the tpu one by nillkin, not the hard case, so yes, it was a mistake on my part.
The Spigen Rugged Armor. 12 bucks on Amazon.
Evocell $10 or less. 3 layered case with holster. Thin and protective. Found on Amazon. Search Evocell LGV20.
